  • The controversial Suicide Squad game drops this week (already out for those who got early access through the Deluxe Edition) and its come with some heated debates around some of the story choices they made. One of those arguments has gotten on my nerves and needs to be addressed.

    One other thing I noticed. For those that still argue, "Its called 'Kill the Justice League' ", you know what the game is also called? "SUICIDE Squad" Guess which member of the Squad actually bites it... 😏

      The problem is that this game has no purpose beyond killing the justice league. If it was a global invasion like injustice 2 thats different. But simply killing great characters because Amanda Waller said so is quite shallow. Overall this game serves no reward to be the villain. Nothing but "I told you so" moment

      I was born in 1989 so BAS and Kevin Conroy has been part of my childhood for 34 years now. I haven't played the game. Wasn't planning on buying it because it wasn't a main line Batman game, and despite them saying that it's tied to the Arkham universe, they must not have realized that it was going to blow up in their face and it looks like they're trying to do damage control. If anything, This is just an alternate universe in my head doesn't count lol. Kevin Conroy lent his voice to Batman so many times for so many versions

    The context in the game is even worse.
    Fight with Bruce 1: Batman utterly decimates the squad effortlessly then almost kills Harley. The Flash manages to save her. Batman beats a weakened flash to a pulp then forgets to try and kill Harley again.
    Fight number 2: Batman uses fear toxin to cripple the squad. The squad then fights ghostly apparitions of the Batman and then fight a demon version of him?
    All of this in the Batcave, with home court advantage, why tf did he not just dispose with the squad the same way he did before, if not more quickly?

      Because of the super pill that makes sense in the comics it still kind of makes sense because certain people are being paired up against certain people but this story you just have three street levels and one power house and that’s it and in the trailers and practically showed us how outmatch they were.

    1) People have been pissed at the premise since day one.
    2) If people did keep an open mind for this game, and it’s concept and then complain about how it’s executed then that’s absolutely reasonable. The argument boils down to “you saw title of thing and are annoyed that the thing is what it’s titled”, which is not the argument being made. Instead the argument being made by those who don’t like the game is “I saw the title of thing and didn’t like how it was executed after buying and playing it”.
    The only people parroting this argument are either laughing at a situation they have no context for and have seen this argument in passing, or you’re just not engaging with what people are saying.

    One of the worst parts is that people have been saying ‘oh, but they’re coming back in a later update!’ As if that excuses anything. The league still died in disrespectful ways, and it’s a cheap way to bring them back. And in that case, why would the squad continue to go after brainiac if the league is back? Even if Rocksteady decides to say ‘oh, this is actually an elseworlds story to the Arkham verse’, that still doesn’t change the fact that it was all originally supposed to be apart of the same universe and once again, it excuses nothing

    The main problem is that it’s in the Arkham verse, which has its own established history and mythology that it made. If the game took place in a similar but obviously different earth than it would be a little better to handle. The premise isn’t a bad one but it’s put in the last universe that should have it. They could have made the Arkham verse the DCAU of video games, but unfortunately that impossible for now unless they make dlc that has a story about reviving the league and the other implied deaths.

      Even if they tried to backpedal and revive the JL, it would be so lame, because the damage was done. The whole 'altering the events of the past' thing is a real cop out of taking responsibility for making the mistakes that they did. They should have never put it in the Arkhamverse in the first place. That alone was playing with fire as a thought.

But I feel like it would have been less tasteless if the post-credit scene showed the bat family alive(Since we never see Robin's dead body, only his mask) and see Azreal becoming the new Batman since it was foreshadowed during Arkham Knight along with Conner Kent, Donna Troy, Kid Flash, Kyle Rayner, and Wally West taking place of OG Justice League to at least let the audience know that "Don't worry, the Arkhamverse isn't without its heroes" or some stuff like that.

    Honestly, this game had potential the gameplay was fun, the graphics are amazing, and the story was good but the thing is the Suicide Squad should not have been able to kill the Justice League I think it should have been clones because it would make more sense that they got taken down so easy and would have made sense for Brainiac to collect them and clone them since it’s apart of his character then would could’ve had more games from this universe I also think that if Wonder Woman only died it would have made an impact but instead they killed them all and the fact that they killed Batman is insane bro was the G.O.A.T he was unstoppable and to just kill him with a gun is insane to do especially after Kevin Conroy passed this feels disrespectful to him and the character. It wouldn’t have been bad if he sacrificed himself or something it would be fine because it would have been meaningful and also the fact that they couldn’t be helped is dumb because Brainiac is a genius and would have a cure for them just in case he needed it and also the SS could have tried to cure them or revive them with the Lazarus Pit.

      The Boys was more about superpowered people sponsored by Vought celebrated as superheroes being secretly villains.
      Now, the way I'm presenting this kind of premise in Shadow Sisters might actually be a better way because the mercenaries trying to kill all the superheroes are the villains called the "Overkillers" because of their methods of killing superpowered GeneHumans are extreme even for Normal Humans without powers. And they've got a news reporter K.K. Kennedy on their side to defame the heroes to have people support the Overkillers. And the reason why my story is better than Kill the Justice League and The Boys is because we're not siding with the hero-killers in this narrative. The Overkillers are the antagonists of the book, and their leader, Killian Murdercorpse is doing this out of revenge for the death of his wife and daughter in the battle between the GeneHuman supremacist geokinetic villain, Lady Terra and the force-field defending hero Forceman. Murdercorpse killed Lady Terra with a platinum bullet and formed the Overkillers to murder every GeneHuman in Wilmette, starting with Lady Terra's Sisterhood of GeneHumans and had successfully wiped out every supervillain in Wilmette, which leaves the superheroes and certain citizens as the only GeneHumans left in Wilmette. Oh, and Murdercorpse is so crazy for revenge, that he builds the Planet Overkiller, a space station with a hyperlaser capable of destroying the Earth just to get rid of a minority he hates. So the Shadow family has to beat the Overkillers to save the Earth. And without killing anyone, because our heroes really don't want any more deaths to prove the Overkillers right or anything for Kennedy to truthfully use in her smear campaign. In fact, they would even evacuate the bad guys in the Planet Overkiller, not just to follow the no-kill rule but also to make up for all the supervillains that they've allowed the Overkillers to kill.

    As you said, it's about how they did it all. I personally even think it's good that Arkham Batman is dead but it should've simply been a more respectful and epic death for this iconic and beloved version of Batman.

      Agreed. However seeing that he exists in Batman 135, he is alive apparently, long after this game and Arkham knight. The thing is he is more isolated and events made him depressed but he still protects people, for apparently the Joker is alive again.

    There's nothing to get,we all knew Joel has to go in part 2 because its heavily hinted that he made a lot of mistakes in the first game + the mentor dylng to pass the torch trope but from all the horrible things he probably did in those 20 years he meet his end because of what,for cleaning a hospital full of terros that ended the life of who knows how many children?

      The Joel argument is different. It's a different genre and tone. The last of us has always been raw, brutal, and cruel. The redeeming qualities of those tones was the humanity that all characters displayed.
      Joel didn't deserve it. But he got it anyways. I for one am not angry about how he died. I actually liked his death in a storytelling sort of way. His knee gets blown to pieces and then he's beaten to death in front of Ellie with a golf club? That is exactly the kind of world they live in, and thus I think it fits perfectly for Joel.
      Keeping with that same argument. Batman is in a different world with a different tone. The Arkham world is bleak, noir, but in the bleakness, there is a savior. A hero. Hope clad in black. Batman. Even when Batman fails, he gets back up. Even when he let's his friends down, he still keeps trying to get it right. Because Batman never quits. And he'll always do the right thing.
      Suicide Squad tore this apart. But that can be forgiven to some degree due to the nature of the game. What cannot be forgiven is how Batman was killed.
      There is a difference between these arguments that people need to realize. Nobody thinks people who hate Joel's death are mad just because he died, but at the same time, those same people value the storytelling of how he died much better than Arkham Batman.

      @aceinspace2751 I didnt wanted to extend myself too much but I know that Joel's death was too juicy for the story for it to not happen and I didnt mind it being brutal(Henry's and his brother death was one of the hardest moment in the first game for me, it was great)
      My issue is more about all they did to make it to that point and everything that happens later.(Joel becoming dumber for it to happen-the rest of the narrative being all over the place to care)
      I didnt wanted to point out if Joel deserved what happened or not,Is about Joel's death being a one use tool to boost a story that didnt improved at all after it happened(Except for Tommy becoming a madman).
      both deaths could have got a pass if they were part of a better story and were properly executed according to the genre of their games

    You are right. the issue people have isn’t that you kill the league, it’s HOW you kill them. The boss fights need to be awesome and respect the characters when they die. Heck, I think injustice did this “fight your heroes” concept much better. Even the “evil” heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman were still heroes in a sense, the issue was their methods of being heroes. They basically became homelander… a massively misguided hero, but still a hero (of sorts). They sought to protect he world, but did it through an authoritarian Regime. Meanwhile, other heroes and some villians like Batman and Harley resisted them. We get the joy of fighting our favorite heroes, but it’s wrapped up in the tragedy of friends and allies forced into fighting each other under ideological differences.

Any villain who does something so raunchy immediately loses any cool factor they had, because now they just look like a bratty juvenile on drugs, and barely competent to have the skills to kill a Justice League member.

It holds no where near the same weight as say, Batman stopping Red Hood from wanting to off a criminal who was responsible for killing innocent people. That's a real character arch. Intervening on a character who is about to piss on a Justice League member does nothing to give the villain an interesting arch because his initial intention of doing so was not relatable in the slightest.

It feels like padding to make the the bad stuff look good in the light of the worst stuff. To say it in a way that makes more sense, the studio basically said, "we draw the line at pissing on a beloved dead hero, so everything else we do in this game is not really that bad because it's within the line."

    Not just one view either, but many twisted views, views such as reoccurring career criminals in the real world should have people out there protesting their innocence and want them to have infinite chances, similar to the Joker, where they don’t care if those criminals go out there and harass, carjack, rob, rape, physically assault and even kill innocent people out there.
    They also believe that there should be no age of consent for sex, and actual pedophiles should be able to fantasize and act out their fantasies on whoever they love and want because Love is Love and you shouldn’t judge.
    Everything to those people is twisted, the things normal rational thinking people consider wrong or immoral, are actually right and morally just to them.

Two it kills off all potential for future games in the Arkham universe with the justice league unless they pull some awful writing bs to bring them back which will make everyone not care because the damage is already done. And three the most important these deaths are not even treated as important, Batman after 4 games as a lead protagonist dies as a side character and is immediately forgotten about as soon as superman shows up 2 seconds later in a game about a mental patient and a guy with a boomerang. i genuinely want to know pushing the fact people love batman to the side, how people defend a great main character that was the focus of 4 incredible, critically acclaimed games being killed off as a relatively unimportant side villain in an generic live service slop game centred around c tier average characters in a boring looter shooter filled with painfully boring escort missions and terrible boss fights, all in service of a game that couldn't lace the boots of the previously mentioned 4.
