Game from passion VS game from money by investors.
The only difference.
money for investors
money for alien invaders.
Piracy still exists and hopefully will forever.
Nah rocksteady are just shit
All the original developers have left lol. Same with most previously loved company’s
Suicide Squad kill the Rocksteady
Lol
LMAO, I better stop internet for today. YOU WIN MAN YOU WIN!
@@alecvip7562ah ok what is the new gaming studio called?
"it's simple we uh, kill the franchise"
@@ULTIMATEUNITED2000YES I NEED TO KNOW TOO!!!
I understand graphics isn't everything, but, clearly the older game has superior artistic expression. Is this the best that could be done with millions or billions of dollars? I want to see what talented and passionate indie developers could do with that budget.
theyd hire a team and make a studio and not be indie anymore, toby fox was very successful with undertale but is still making games in that style just better. money isnt gonna just produce a game
Most modern games that has been released in the past 3 years have this shitty art style where they make the graphics flat, facial expressions and details on clothes might be improved ut art style is just gone infact Arkham city looks better than this humiliating suicide squad game
@@grm9495 I may be wrong, but I think that could be attributed to the designers being chronically overworked in AAA studios, in a way that you don't see with independent studios; you can't make anything interesting if you're going through a nervous breakdown.
@@julientorres4459 most games these days are rushed because most gaming companies are getting greedy except for rockstar and naughty dog those are greedy asf but they make the most gorgeous graphics I’ve ever seen

The Harley combat comparison KILLED me
Right? The second one is so good as well, legit made me want to play the game, and I barely play single players except From Software games.
Batman games have melee combat as a core mechanic. Suicide squad is a looter shooter, where melee is just for debuffs, some abilities and finishers, there's no melee in this game as it is, something like melee in Destiny, mostly useless. So this comparison is bullshit. Also judjing by the interface , the footage is pretty old.

Right 😳
Without good shaders and reflections on the right pic, Harley's figure looks poor. As if she trading an expensive and stylish anti-hero costume for cheap circus props

It would appear that Rocksteady have lost all their talented employees over the years.
Well the OG guys jumped ship during the game's development, now they just founded their new studio, something something star games i forgot
Ah yea, hundred star games i think
They did.
Rocksteady needed to fill those diversity quotas.
i would like to see their old group pic and new group pic lol. im sure you would see some patterns
As a former game dev, I tend to be extremely defensive of studios against Hot Takes. I opened this video with the intent of saying “These aren’t THAT different”…
But Jesus fucking Christ, you delivered a damning argument of the massive drop in quality. What the hell happened? This is horrible.
I have heard people say that they hope this is the beginning of the end of Triple-A live service games. I really hope that’s the case.
Excellent video you made here. 💜
💅🏻💅🏻
You must be seriously out of loop if you still want to defend triple a studios as if they were poor indie devs that dont know better. The unfortunate reality is that corpos with zero passion for games and a zealous ideology are ruining games even if the devs want to make it great. Gamers might not be able to articulate this well, and mistakenly blame the "devs" for issues when it's really other parts of the company, but they ultimately know how to tell if something is fun or not.
@@aetherblackbolt1301 I like to think of this as a form of protest by the devs. Like the developers make a shitty game to let their audience know that they're being forced to make a game by the studio and its investors even though there is no proper vision or passion behind the project.
proof that art direction will always matter more than graphics
Eh it's also technical effort. There are lots of technical tricks that have been available for decades... but your average shovelware game is not necessarily going to use them because it's your average shovelware game. As opposed to when they were new and people were pushing the envelope as a new thing. It's not really artistic design, just more effort. It's an interesting thing because while you can say global illumination in an engine is more "advanced", there are old games that use completely baked lighting and shadows that looks better in linear hub levels, because they put a lot of effort into manually getting that effect right by hand rather than simply having it all done automatically by the engine. A human using all the technological tricks available at hand intentionally with hours spent polishing it is always gonna look better than someone just taking an off-the-shelf more advanced engine and lazily shoving assets in.
100% correct!
Great comment.
Not really. I mean it's not really a proof for your claim, despite art direction always superior to just poly counts.
But this is a case with the graphics being really bad on top. The texture work is bad, everything looks like it went to 5 instances of ai "enhancement", because everything just looks that smooth and soft, which is kinda ironic considering that the new game is most likely using more high res textures and output resolution and much better AA, but in the end nothing looks sharp, everything is just way to soft, even the gameplay. ;-)
Not sure what you're talking about. Graphically and stylistically arkham knight looks better. The water effects, material texturing, lighting, and so on all looks vastly more impressive just on a technical level in arkham knight. Style or technical athkham knight is more impressive
All the OG devs who worked on batman are long gone, it's a shadow of it's former self
Did they founded a new studio?
@@TP-yy3zx Heard they got "blacklisted" for some reason... Sweet Baby inc most likely is the cause.
Why does it feel like i could make a batman joke here but uhhh i am not creative enough for once so yeah lol
It’s understandable that having no project for a long time means no income forced them to leave the studio. I mean, 7 to 9 years is a long time
It’s a shadow of a shadow. I’ve never seen a studio literally destroy their own game franchise’s legacy like Rocksteady has. Honestly the way they did Batman was horrible.
The switch from Batman combat to Harley Quinn sent me 💀
They did Harley dirty, in an Arkham Knight DLC you can play as her and she kicks ass

the debake on Harley’s cake is absurd
Dead😂
Sweet Baby Inc at work here.
SweetBaby Inc (woke writing/game consultancy) worked on this project, to 'improve' Rocksteady's ESG score. You can tell even with details as simple as moving Harley's bat so it covers her butt as she walks, as opposed to AK where it was tilted to one side because she's walking in a confident, show-offy way.
In AK the devs gave her animations personality, that included her awareness of her own nice physique. She flaunts it. But that's objectifying, says SweetBaby, because the player can look at it! Tilt that weapon way down so it obscures her butt! Let's remove those parts of Harley's character, turn her into a generic wacky girl with a blunt weapon. Then have her look at her old costume from those prior games and call it a "phase she regrets". So progressive!
it’s so atrocious, i feel betrayed

@@ayobruh_5"☝️🤓" -🤓
So in 9 years they've achieved :
- Significant downgrade in lighting and weather effects
- No more extra time and effort towards animations and costume design
- That impactful weighted combat is now gone for mobile game tier combat
- The dark and heavy atmosphere is now a catoonish, goofy out of place feeling in characters and setting
That's just sad.
Edit: Ok so it's actually a fair point that both these games don't have to feel dark and heavy, my bad. However in terms of how much the atmosphere and settings are likeable and unique, I think the difference is more than obvious.
I think costume design is the one thing they did actually put effort into lol
The Suicide Squad was always cartoonish to be fair. Batman was supposed to be dark and heavy because it's inherent to the character. Also, this is set in Metropolis and not Gotham, two polar opposites in terms of looks. Other things are unforgivable but people forget this isn't a Batman game
Yeah, the atmosphere is meant to be different, but this doesn't even have an atmosphere, it's FLAT in terms of lighting, artstyle, everything. And the colours! It seems to be a trend they just make every special effect rain rainbow or something, but it looks dumb. There's not art in this, it has zero aesthetic value, or emotional value, or anything. It's just an overly expensive mess of a game. @@mrqeufeus
Not to mention that the characters suddenly started looking like the movie versions of the suicide squad… instead of, you know, the look and uniqueness this exact studio built for them throughout four games…
Also, they removed EVERY fanservice from Harley Quinn, and made her ugly.
they nerfed harleys cake... oh and also they nerfed the justice league too
Not only that. They put more work in the animation in Arkham Knight
they killed arkhamverse bascally
Also filled it to the brim with Phase 4 Marvel humor, just what we always wanted.

there was passion behind that harley model alr
A model made with one hand vs a model made with two hands
A little bit of that, but mostly the studio just losin most of the talented people and wrong hiring practises
Batman Arkham Knight was so terrible on release it literally got a full country wide refund in Australia because it was completely unplayable and broken. Suicide Squad sucks but it is funny how short peoples' memories are and how easily rose-tinted glasses come out for a game that was literally bricked day one from corporate greed.
@@Tabako-san The launching of the game was messy as shit, but AK's story and gameplay were genuinely some of the best in the entire Arkhamverse - assuming Suicide Squad actually does take place in the Arkhamverse, which it might not be since Shark and Waller are alive, and Deadshot isn't white.
Somehow the 9 year old game looks better.
Next gen my ass.
Next gen was 10 years ago.
Current Next Gen means: Unfinished games with promises of a full complete game 3 years later or so with battle passes and pricey microtransactions and add-ons.
They have literally no passion these days😂
Because the new gen consoles are a con the technology really doesn't warrant this to be a next gen exclusive Arkham knight looks like it would be harder to run.
@@Cyber_Smoke I saw a vid about a guy running this at 60 fps with a 1060 with fsr low settings idk what CPU he had tho
@@blamcheeseand also lazy devs. They are adopting technologies rather than the implementation of their creativity and even worse, most of the developers now using upscaling for the graphics, so that there will be no optimizations needed. Imagine playing at 720p upscaled and calling it as "next gen".
Those are the days where we don't have fancy graphics options called ray tracing or anything and still producing better graphics than today!
They expected people would forget, which most did.
Gliding in Batman AA was so wholesome I was gliding just for fun for hs back then

Seeing these modern games with their highly advanced graphics, there is one common thing they are always missing, and that's an understanding of lighting. Games coming out lack proper reflections, deep blacks etc. which gives off that matte colour look that we see nowadays.
No no, they know, its common knowledge, I don't understand why they don't use it
Thank you for describing what I didn't have the words for. It was the biggest difference I noticed in the entire video.
The best words I could come up with to describe it were "pastel" and "samey"
1:06 sick transition
Ah the crisp sound of Batman's cape...
It is oddly satisfying listening to that thing flap around.
AK sounds so lively, SS always sound so empty and lifeless, the sound design is awful, like it's missing so many effects and environmental sounds to make the world feel alive. It sticks out like a sore thumb in the cutscenes, like watch the first handful of cutscenes for both games and notice the lack of sounds in SS.
Ayo 💀@@stuarteaston1629
@@blondfossyeah I thought this also, every single cutscene there’s no other audio than the people talking, no ambient noise whatsoever

Funfact: Arkham Knight is running on a modified version of unreal engine 3 due to budget contraints. That just tells you how commited the old Rocksteady team was to their craft
I think they also were more comfortable working on their in house modified Unreal 3 than switching to the brand new and untested Unreal 4. They had built Asylum and City on Unreal 3, and instead of throwing all that work out to start working on Unreal 4, they kept with what they already knew.
Maybe budget constraints is the wrong way to describe it. Unreal Engine 4 was very unproven at the time and also had a lot of issues until later in the engine's lifecycle.
It was actually unreal 3.5 so basically unreal 3 with some features from unreal 4’s beta at the time. But overall it was modified and probably better than current unreal 4

@@derbyblade9572lol virtue signalling?
@derbyblade9572 actually Arkham knight has a shit ending
(I'm putting my explanation here since my other comment got deleted for slurs. How annoying, anyways the reason I consider Batman Arkham's ending shit. It's he loses in such a dogshit way, which would NEVER happen to Batman. He gives up his belt which has most of his gadgets in them, I say most because Batman SHOULD have other gadgets for lock picking in his suit just like in the animated series and the comics but no he doesn't then belt is the only thing makes Batman dangerous against gunmen then. Even though he doesn't NEED his bat suit to take down gunmen it just makes it easier, we see this in the Arkham origins cold heart Dlc. But he just willigly gives up on his life as Bruce Wayne all because scarecrow was holding a pistol...but scarecrow is ALONE WITH NOBODY HELPING HIM OUT, man! Batman is held at gun point! If only he could move so fast he could knock the gun outta scarecrows hand and knock him out at the same time!
(Referring to the Multi fear takedown which is Canon and I don't care if it's supposed to show the thugs too scared to shoot properly because he's still able to dodge bullets and rockets in game which both surpasses the speed of sound And he can't outspeed scarecrow? A Fodder who gets one tapped by Gordon? It's almost like he's forgotten like he's Batman similar to how Shepard forgets about his godly Charisma in mass effect 3 out of nowhere.)
@@vegetacultminorityhunteryou have a shit opinion. Ending was great
It feels like SS has no shadows on any objects.
it has an over-saturated filter to compensate for this, but consequently very low contrast (resulted in lighter shadows and less light-to-dark differentiation). Contrast makes things pop and can make otherwise dull graphics look gritty and detailed. The second game was obviously going for a lighter, more playful look but in some areas it just doesn't look right. I also don't understand the unnecessary atmospheric fog affect, it makes things even harder to see in front of you.
To add to this, it looks fine during the day because the colors are a lot more visible under the light but during night time the low contrast makes things significantly harder to see.
Isn't SS mostly missing shiny reflections that pop out?
That's the price you pay for every game having "upscaling in mind" nowadays. How can you afford shadows and ambient occlusion when you cant even afford to run the game at native res anymore?
@@kristoffseisler2163 Even aside the shadows and ambient occlusion, at a base level, suicide squad is STILL visually inferior on so many levels. Stop trying to ignore the REAL issue, which is laziness and mass cost-cutting despite the industry being more profitable than it ever was before.
The long and short of it is, budgets balloon, they charge more, fill it with microtransactions, and what does the end user get? An inferior product.
You can tell when the developers had actual passion back then and it shows.

Technically yes as it’s Rocksteady, but also no do to half of the original team left because WB only wanted them to make Batman games when they wanted to expand the Arkham verse by making a Superman game. Then the rest of the OG team left during Knight because of studio meddling that lead to Bat-Tank combat and Jason Todd being the Arkham Knight.

They really took away the tightness of her suit and the shin
Jesus the details on Harley's suit are so stark. She has creases in the old one, the little puffs of her collar look detailed, it has shine of leather. In the new one it's all flat.
As one should not call 911 to complain of spilled milk,
much more should one not say the Lord's name in vain.
To do either is braking the law.
Glory, Honor, blessings, thanks and praise to the Lord my God,
for healing my heart during a heart attack!
On March 26th 2022,
just past midnight,
I was laying restless in bed,
and I had a heart attack.
My arms and legs became tingly and numb,
then my chest got tighter,
and then my heart felt like it was being crushed.
So I sang out to God and Jesus,
about my pain, my feelings,
my faults and my inabilities.
As I sang, I began to feel like a river,
and a hand was on my back,
it's fingers where skimming the surface,
separating the waters,
causing ripples through my body.
Then the hand reached inside my chest,
lit my heart on fire,
and the heat moved like waves through my body.
When I was done singing,
all the pain was gone,
and I looked at the clock,
it was past 1am,
I had been singing near an hour.
Then the voice of my guardian angel called my name from above,
and there was a hymn of energy in the air,
the same hymn I hear in my dreams of God.
Hallelujah to the Lord my God for healing my heart!
Hallelujah for His son Jesus for saving my soul!
Hallelujah for every day!
Hallelujah for every breath!
The Lord is Faithful and true!
May the Lord Bless your hearts,
so that you have the will and strength to turn from selfish sins,
and flee from the slaveries of the flesh!

LEFT ON THE THE OLDER ONE?!
That's not the only thing that looks all flat on new Harley
@@U_C_G i checked replies to see this, can't believe it's not the first one lmao
1:03 i love how it transitions to a better game
The transition from the video creator had more effort than the entire suicide squad fuck the justice league game
@@stanco1273so so so true it needs a t shirt
Looks like Harley laid off the squats since Arkham Knight
It’s crazy that both games were made by the same studio. Went from being a team full of passionate devs to a team that was taken over by greed from the executives. No wonder rocksteady’s founders decided to leave
Studios change management and staff members all the time, whomever was working on Arkham 9 years ago, probably isn't with the company now, unfortunately.
Not to mention goals of the execs/management changes, back when Arkham came out the focus was a high quality Batman game, now it's a live service cash grab using Suicide Squad to sell the game.
@@Naijiro I agree one hundred percent with you. The whole executives part was what I was referring to when saying the studio was taken over by greed
Yeah exactly right. They are sadly only Rocksteady in name only and that's it. They may as well just say it was made by "Warner Studios".
@@Naijiro Studio names are Just brands used to sell games. The people that works there are what makes the game good.
Just because then same studio made the games doesn’t mean it still have the talent 10 years is a long time a lot of the talent left or passed away. Some founders of rocksteady left in the middle of this “new” game development
For a long time people including myself criticised Arkham Knight for having a shallow story and too much Batmobile gameplay, as well as presenting a small Gotham City with short buildings. Now I realise we were blessed to have this game.
😢thx man.
Knight was good the pc port really ruined the game’s reputation and it wasn’t rocksteady fault to begin with it was WB fault. I really like the tank battles but that’s my own opinion. Story in knight was good but had many flaws and wasn’t all that big but it still was a pretty good story and is way more better than suicide squad story.
The story was perfect it’s just the boss fights for me
@@cantsuggestareasonablename9101 Newsflash, PCs are not made for games. Every other multiplatform game that comes out on PC spends a few months broken with poor performance. PC is for working, consoles are for gaming, console's architecture is made for games specifically. PCgamers will hate on a game not because it is a bad game but because their platform of choice is stupid.
Arkham Knight was the start of the end of Rocksteady
How do we know which game is which based on the clips, if we hadn't played?
what a difference good lighting usage makes
Harley's bubble butt in AK was stuff of dreams.
That’s how joker was able to bake a baby in her bakery

Yeah, apparently losing Joker affect her cake as well

It’s unbelievable how good Arkham knight still looks. No wonder it was so busted on PC when it launched. Truly ahead of its time
And it was a early years PS4 game and still holds up to this day. Wild.
It was just poor optimization on their part. The game ran fine in weaker consoles vs PC. Same thing happened with The last of us.
I had Arkham Knight in PS4 and PC when it was fixed so i never really had a problem.
Arkham Knight looks barely better than a City and TPP and TW3 came out the year after and actually ran well on affordable hardware at the time.
@@BlueLightningSky knight looks better now after all fixes
@@BlueLightningSky good bait
If we had a Harley Quinn game with the aspects of the Arkham games it would top steam charts in a day. Let’s be honest at least 50% of the hype for suicide squad came from Harley the other 50 for evil flash
I legitimately thought that Arkham was the new one. Suicide Squad looks like Saints Row 3 graphics.
*Crowbcat impatiently rubbing hands*
Dartigan secretly playing this game to sin it to hell
1:04 - Bro dropped a clean transition and thought we wouldn't notice 🔥💪🏾
I was about to comment the same.
How would we not notice??? You only don't notice it if you're looking away and have the video muted.
You can compliment an amazing transition without sounding stupid.
@@TheFirstCurse1r/whoosh
@@TheFirstCurse1wow you’re a bundle of joy aren’t you?
@@SURGEONAA2 I'm just calling out a needlessly stupid comment.
As someone who had no knowledge of either of these games, I genuinely thought the second one shown was the newer version and the low graphics lookin one was the one from 9 years ago. Really shows the passion put into the first one…
Every photographer/cinematographer knows - it`s all about the lighting.
omg suicide squad looks like from a perfectly optimized switch port
As a switch user, I can confirm this
Just imagine they'll port it
They ported all the Arkham games to switch. And I can confirm that even the switch port of Arkham Knight looks better than this...
The fortnitification of gaming is real. Cheap and easy to make. I always have doubts when they got pastel colors and "random dopamine loot pinatas" for the lack of a better word.
Exactly what I was thinking. Terrible direction.
I love the term “random dopamine loot Piñatas” I’m going to start using that lol.
fortnitification is exactly the word i was looking for
Shit got the disney infinity graphics
bro i thought you said fornication...
Harley went from cake to steak.
How they pulled AK out of UE3 is art
1:05 Props to the editor for this killer transition
Damnnnn
The detail in the Batman game is just insane.
I knew exactly what you were talking about before I even checked
Total disrespect xD
@@commenceun Though the city sucks immensely......god, they have everything down but the geometrics of a real city. This can't be actual gotham, I've seen those golden beautiful towers in Arkham city. And you thought porn was a kids first wet dream.
The Suicide Squad game has a really almost low budget spin off feel to it
Yet somehow the cutscenes seem very high production. Feels like the game was made in another studio meanwhile the cutscenes are made in a movie stuido😭
@@qadi796yeah the best thing about the game is the character face models and fidelity of the cutscenes. They look like real people. Incredibly expressive. But that should be expected in 2024 with how far motion capture has come. The actual GAME content is so bland it feels like a mobile game at times
That’s weird since they spent tons of money on ads for it. So I’m told anyway.
@@qadi796 a lot of games nowadays care more about putting effort in the cutscenes than in the gameplay
@@joaovitor10yearsagoand story
Didn't expect a new Crowbcat video here
when Sefton Hill left Rocksteady I knew something was up
it's so strange how all of the dynamic range/contrast is drained resulting in a grey mist
Post-2010s cultural revolution left everything feeling grey, joyless, Soviet. Who could have guessed it would happen?
@qoph1988 yeah the impact of Gamergate beyond just video games in addition to a rise of fascism and ecological collapse being ignored is truly disturbing. a shitty video game is much more important than any of this though.
Noticing that in a lot of games lately, RE comes to mind first
Alan wake 2, the last of us part 1 and 2...
@@qoph1988Soviet art had great vibrant aesthetics, Western propaganda always made a point that the Soviet Union was all about style and lacked substance.
More people must realise that it's not how many pixels a game has that makes it look good, but rather the art and lighting. Those two are FAR more important and end up making the product look sooo much better for years to come.
the game look like PUBG Mobile with Suicide Squad event skin
This is why the older games looked so good
@@Dipj01[some] older games looked this good. Many didnt. And this isnt a fair comparison.
@@Dipj01Arkham Knight is a smaller game made run at 1080p 30 frames. Suicide Squad is a multiplayer game attempting to run at 4K, 60 frames per second.
The Matrix unleashed runs at 1080p 30 frames so extra horsepower was available. This generation, 60 frames per second framerate is prioritized so there is less extra horse power available to make games look much better.
However gamers boldly voted that they rather a focus on 60 frames even if minimal graphics improvements were the result.
With Batman Arkham Knight, I could feel the seriousness of the game. With this new game, I can feel the seriousness of the problems in the gaming industry.
3:38 the Loba voice line from Apex?
The funny thing is it probably also doesn’t take much hardware to max out the graphics of the older games, and it has become more apparent that older games have superior graphics to optimisation ratios then today’s games. To design and create is one talent, to optimise is another.
Modern game devs have no talents, they are bugs
Modern corporate games are made in the same way as modern corporate websites. Multiple devs cobbling together packages without really understanding what they do or how they will perform.
I mean it's great that you can go no-code in unreal (for instance) and make a game but all that abstraction comes at a price and the low bar to entry means that it's likely you won't know what that price will be.
crazy and now you cant play games unless you spend thousands of dollars/euros and games look like THAT should be illegal.
The new game will be laggy asf on max while Batman is butter smooth while looking better
thats technically not true arkham knight did have a terrible pc port. but i see what u mean
The water in suicide squad looks like Jello when you wobble it.
I get it's different dev teams, but how does a game that's practically a decade older look THAT much better? (Honestly, the graphics are still stunning by today's standards)
