@@SternSupremacy Yeah, I love Falcon's chill, but Angry Falcon is AWESOME to hear, because he manages to be in full-on rant mode, but keeps himself in check enough to not reach unhinged level. The balance is great.
I love that after years of gamers saying, "We don't want this," it bombs, the single-player Hogwarts does gangbusters, and Warner Bros' takeaway is, "Single player games are dead, we need more live-service!"
Single player game, one and done purchase. If they can hook a live-service hit, money again and again and again. As dumb as it seems, throwing things against a wall hoping to hook a pool of whales is something they are willing to gamble on.
Yeah, imagine looking at Sony's big AAA releases in the last 6 years, making shit loads of money and thinking "Nah, these dudes are crazy, let's make Captain Boomerang pee on shit". Wild!
A good single player experience is almost always better. But it only makes the execs one decent pool of money. They want ridiculous pools of money that flow in non stop. They will never have enough.
@@TheDawnofVanlife You are absolutely correct, but this also explains well what they do - gambling. And like always, gambling feels nice and exciting as long as you can hope for a great result and crushing once you lose. It's insane that this mindset has become the basis for huge productions, when there's a clear path for less but secure money.
Gotta wonder just how many of those remaining 400-600 players are actually reviewers and content creators grinding away to get the joker (or footage in general) in order to make vids like this.
Pretty sure they are. Im just wondering like whats the reason to play this if warner bros already said its a failure. Or the game thats going to shut down early than avengers
Ive been playing the game its not as bad as anyone has been saying its like 7/10 but season 1 ep 1 sucked hopefully season 1 ep 2 will have some story content
I play it regularly. I put about an hour in a few nights a week. I genuinely enjoy the game. It's mindless fun. The combat is a real power fantasy and progression / loop is taking on higher and higher difficulties for better and better gear......just like Diablo 2 or other similar games back in the day. Its season pass doesn't expire. Each season and new character is completely free and joker took a minimal amount of time to unlock. Now I'm just working through the pass and playing for better gear and builds. I don't care if others enjoy it or not but just to provide some context. While its not popular it's fun for the people who still play and there isn't anything wrong with that. I don't enjoy many of the overly popular games so it's nice to have something to play.
Thanks for proving that gamers are all mindless sheep. Yall have never even played this, but yall hating on it loool. What's it like not having critical thinking skills? 🤣😂
Eh, I personally don't agree with that. It's pretty obvious Suicide Squad has become the whipping boy for people who just like to complain and trash things. For all of the negative comments I've seen on the game 99% of them are just people dunking on it with single one-liners like "Jonkler" or "Suicide Squad is a joke." It's these types of mindless comments that get repeated ad nauseum that have made me wonder, "How many of these people actually played the game? Or at least gave it a proper shot?" Judging by the Steam reviews I'd wager precious few of the outspoken "critics" actually took the time to understand why the game is a failure, hence the only thing most people can actually say is some canned comment that's been recycled thousands of times. So I think it mostly is hate, yeah. It takes too much time and energy to properly critcise something, and most people would rather just go off of what Luke Stephens or any other YT personality has to say rather than putting in the effort to formulate their own opinions. Just my two cents.
@@Cryotyde agreed, specially when they start talking about WW's appearence and how she is a man or whatever. Some people be spilling insane deranged bs
@synthetiCore idk man, when the company themselves say the game fell short, criticism like that might be valid, especially since it has scummy business practices.
@@doomguy9458 There's no doubt the game fell short, it definitely did. And I think there's much about Suicide Squad that merits crticism for sure. My point though is there's a difference between proper critique and just hating on something. I think this game has attracted a lof of the haters/trolls/internet goons precisely because it's a game that warrants criticiscm in some aspects.
@@Cryotyde I am a huge Rocksteady and Arkham series fan as well as DC in general so I will give some of my personal criticism with the game. I pre ordered this game and was super excited and played it all the way through on release. I went in blind as I always do with no outside opinions affecting my bias. It started out pretty fun but the gameplay loop became overly repetitive. There is a huge lack of enemy variety. The story started out okay but ended really bad in my opinion especially with how they handled Batman in this game. I did enjoy hearing Kevin voice act one last time though. It being a live service game is genuinely stupid in my opinion. The game is only interesting during the initial play through because the Justice League is in it. After beating it I personally lost all interest to keep playing because at the end of the day its just a looter shooter live service game. If I ignore the fact that this game is a Suicide Squad game and just another shooter game I still think the gameplay is mediocre at best. Its a shame because I enjoy the Suicide Squad characters but wish it was more in kin to the Arkham Games with each character feeling unique with their own comic traits and abilities. For example, Captain Boomerangs gameplay should be mostly boomerang gameplay but instead you're pretty much forced to use guns and can also use the same snipers as Deadshot which also takes away from Deadshots unique ability to be the best sniper/shooter. Instead the only variety is different guns and some traversal abilities. Obviously this is the case because its a looter shooter live service game but if that's the route Rocksteady wanted to take they should of made a completely seperate IP instead of trying to use the Suicide Squad characters to boost hype for the sole purpose of making a profit. That's what they decided to do instead of making a good game and for Rocksteady to sell out like that is baffling. They use to hold a legendary status in the gaming industry. Now they have stained their name with this mico transaction garbage. The graphics and small details compared to any previous Arkham game is also laughable. Its a shame we waited years since Arkham Knight to be given this half assed "Suicide Squad" game.
That is the biggest fact ever about this game! I can tell by the “communication “ they send us. We “hear” you and we will address….. just stfu, how about that and listen to your DEVS and quit releasing dog shit and endless drip feeds. For the love of GOD please bury live service games forever and play your game before you release it. Sounds simple and you have testers. Who? Sweet Baby video game testers? If you sat down and played your GD game, you couldn’t help but notice the shit we bitch about! What does it take for you to see that gamers care and want to help you but you keep bending us over and asking for more time and money.
@@adad87821 that’s because the people who make the decisions aren’t negatively impacted by failure. If a multi-year live service gamble loses money, they take a massive golden parachute and move to a different studio to try the same tactic. But if it succeeds, the profits are nearly limitless and these execs share in that. There’s no downside to anything but their reputation so they’ll gladly gamble hundreds of millions hoping to be one of the .5% that actually works
@jeffreyklima7612 I'm not spouting bullshit because by that point they definitely had a lot of the game done the main story figured out remember this game was worked on since after the release of arkham knight
The fact that Helldivers 2 exists at the same time is also a huge problem for Rocksteady. A better Game as a Service game that is not only cheaper, it's constantly changing and getting new content.
Helldivers really took that "simple but effective" approach and polished it till thoroughly, then released it for an extremely reasonable price. Most pleasant surprise to gaming in a while, for me
Ehhhh tbh if you weren’t the original 10 thousand that play the first one over the last ten years you shouldn’t be talking about a game you found on tik tok haha
@Blahhhhhh156 First time I've seen gaming elitism 😂 do you only want those 10k people to buy the second game? I get the tiktok hate but let people play and enjoy games, chill
@@SJC9726 I do!?? Your the ones taking the fun out of it rushing the developers (a small team) for constant content updates as well as making the community very toxic. We were fine without you😎😎
@Blahhhhhh156 I have no idea what you're on about 😂 I'm not rushing anybody. I, an adult, rarely have time to play and struggle to keep up with the updates. If they wanna take time to cook I'm happy with that, that goes for any game company. You'd rather the devs didn't make money and only sold 10k copies, I'm not the one with the problem here
The fact that there is legitimately only a single cutscene with a modicum of interaction with the Joker that has ZERO interaction between him & Harley genuinely feels like a deliberate put-on, as though WB/Rocksteady are explicitly stating they want to grant the bare minimum & daring us as consumers to call them on it. You’d genuinely have to go out of your way to make the Joker inclusion completely uncompelling & uninteresting
You losers just like to hate on the game for no reason. But going over the lack of interaction harley and joker had just clearly tells me that you must be 14 years old. No adult acts like this. And don’t say it’s criticism because it’s obviously not
@@Mr.Drew70 Right...uh why exactly must I be 14 years old? Because I would like to see characters who have an explicit connection with each other in their source franchise have an interaction within a game ostensibly based on that franchise? What exactly about that is an immature demand. And I don't hate the game for no reason. I literally gave a reason. Its fine if you don't think that reason is valid but I'd say it's more of a sign of your immaturity to come to the rescue of a video game many people have serious & reasoned issues with & claim it is all just blind hatred because you can't stand the thought that not everyone is willing to bow at the alter of the game that you like. If you like it, you don't have to get pissed off that other people don't. Yet here you are trolling YT looking to call people 14 year old losers because you can't actually refute the issues they have with the game with a sane & measured response. I'm not sure what exactly criticism is to someone like you if you go into every conversation with the belief that people aren't allowed to dislike your favorite game on principle.
@@MetroXLRIt's been confirmed that the Batman Beyond game that was in development was never planned as an Arkham game. It would have been a new Batman universe, not a continuation from Knight.
The Joker was their cash cow, they thought for some reason gamers who wanna play a fun video game HAVE to have JOKER... Maybe but we HAVE to have a game worth playing 1st.
It's cause the Suicide squad films created this dumb HarleyxJoker hype amongst youngsters. Old gamers like us are definitely not their targeted market, they are preying on the young minds with easy access to their parents' credit card (à la Fortnite)
The problem is the suits are making games, not creatives, not artist, no real risk taking developers, and they are forcing live service, when there's no needs, and if you look at BG3, it's not a problem with being single player, It just needs to be a good game... It deserves the criticism, and WB is "doubling" down, because MBA should not run companies.
Yeah, this game is just trying to appeal to DC fans more than actual gamers, or gamers who just want to run around and fight shit and who don't really care about actual quality. The whole season pass micro transaction shit is so indicative of a profit first driven company, which is ironic since games are one of the best mediums to be creative. The best games I've played are the ones that take risks and do things other games haven't. They just don't care and probably don't have the talent. I imagine they just hire whoever can do the work and don't care for creative input or innovation. They just want to sell as much as they can, even if people end up thinking poorly of their games. When is the last time they came out with an actual banger?
I would argue it’s hiring people who can’t write, can’t make an fun gameplay loop and can’t make an game look good. I don’t even care about cutscenes looking great compared to the world looking good. I mean they failed big time at making each character feel different. I mean they all used guns and all of the boss fights are pretty much the same
i still question that... the story of this game, and tone of this game is the work of the so-called Creatives. And that really needs to take a piss itself. I am pretty sure the next studio will be handed a memo that says 'under no circumstances should the plot involve shooting Batman in the face by the player characters'
No Mans Sky was the exception, except... it should be good from the start. Imagine telling EA that we will pay them $30 and the rest will be paid after one season? They won't like that, but they are OK doing the same thing in terms of game design and content
@@DarkForce2024 that would be insane. Just imagine a whole multiverse of too expensive Skins of Cheap Joker Knockoffs Thats basically Money printing for them!
As someone with a kpop pfp, the Joker is a joke 😂 They were trying to do Trickster from DBD who literally looks a lot like a specific kpop star but Rocksteady gave us circus crackhead instead
That’s a great point. I had no desire to play SS regardless but HD2 definitely fills that wide open co-op void. Many 13:52 others probably feel the same way.
@@thestonergamer420what if you still want to view how much health/ammo you have? Or when your special ability is ready or what your objective is. Having the option to hide these mechanics is not good game design. Incorporating these hud elements to be non intrusive in gameplay is the bare minimum and should be expected.
It's way too busy and over-produced. In every moment there is something in your face. Sensory overload. At an attempt to be flashy and keep the ADHD fueled, it's distractingly too much.

Falcon saying that he mightve been doing something wrong is actually a valuable criticism in of itself, because not everyone is a seasoned veteran gamer. he plays video games by the truckload for these videos and i assume just for the hell of it cuz you know, its a hobby. The fact that it took him that long to grind out a character rank despite having finished the standard content's main story speaks volumes of how much casual players will suffer to get to said rank. i refuse to believe the sheer annoyance of farming Joker wasnt designed to make people go and flat out buying him with Luthorbucks
Not sure why it took him that long? You get like 2-4 ranks per Incursion. Granted they boosted stuff in a patch and now patrol missions grant no fear rank lol. Most people have a truckload of promethium. I've never seen it below 10k. Makes no sense to have to pay for missions if people either have too much or too little at one time.
@@TheReptileHand I think you failed to listen, he hasnt been grinding his ass off this entire time like the 300+ people still playing this game and he isnt a seasoned gaming veteran. He is essentially the prime example of the type of person who would be dropping into this game, not the deranged sweats like you who masochistically play a terrible game with practically no content. you are not the norm.
While WB is certainly to blame, at the same time the writers and designers are too (And sourbabyinc) . The problem with suicide squad wasn't that it was a live service. It's that it was a bad live service with a bad story, bad mission design, and bad writing.
These kind of people where arrogant enough to release this sorry excuse for a game, they will double down like Disney with the sequels till the end of their days.
almost like they thought they were being cheeky but really just looks like they are no longer trying to hide that they are greedy evil billionaire supervillains running a gaming company.
Pretty sure the only reason they said it was an arkham game was because they were scared the game wouldn't do well if it wasn't an arkham game even though it would of done better if they never said it was in the arkhamverse
You can literally feel how frustrated Falcon is and he has a right to be. Like a lot of us here he had mad respect for Rocksteady because of the Arkham trilogy. Oh how bad you have fallen Rocksteady!
@@ghostoflazlo It's not just one bad game. It's one bad game after 9 years of anticipation for a new game from the studio that created the Arkham trilogy. It's their bad bussiness practices and shifting their focus to live service crap🙌🏻
I paid $250 for the Collector's Edition of Marvel's Avengers and I loved every second I spent with that game. Right up until the end. No regrets. I bought the Deluxe Edition of Suicide Squad and recently just finished the campaign. I still love this game. I'm allowing this art piece to be what it is. However, you cannot deny the repetitive nature and lack of new content. I was really hoping the lifespan of this game would be long, because I certainly don't have a problem playing it. It just feels like it's on borrowed time. That kind of sucks.
Stop paying for stupid shit! This is why these companies keep releasing these stupid deluxe ultra taking the piss editions. Pay an extra £100 for a £2.50 plastic model and a skin in game you'll never use.
i guess this happens if you fuck the original devs over and then you donit as wb again with the remaining devs. i might remember it wrong, but a bunch of the original team left after arkham city. they didn't even bother to bring mark hamills joker back, instead the gave us this jared leto shit.
The let their original team go and hired a bunch of gaming tourists that have only ever played candy crush. I mean these companies are hiring a half dozen consulting firms that all hate gaming and gamers instead of investing in game developing, graphics, gameplay, playtesting, etc.
@@kennethbryant5819I was watching the open bar an few weeks Avon and the one guy that was on and he check nearly nobody that work on this game worked on the olds one
Warner Brothers. That's what happened. We all know what big greedy companies does to talented dev studios. Unfortunate that the industry cannot run without money and greedy people has that.
I'm glad I didn't blow money on this. I knew it wasn't doing good the moment I saw it on sale a month after release. And it's on sale again. I think it's down to $35 which is horrible this soon after release.
I keep saying this... content for the sake of content is one of the primary diseases plaguing various entertainment industries. Catering to the lowest bar of any demographic... the whales, the careless consumers, and the folks that are loud at social media about supporting something without ever really being interested in supporting said something. And that's not even talking about ideologies destroying stories and IPs left, right, and center.
zod is basically superman, why would he use normal guns? the point of the suicide squad is that they are low tier villains, and skilled humans, you cant just pull a zod. even someone like bane would probably be too much above the "power level" of the team.
@@mordiHarbinger Smartest being in the galaxy by the way. You wouldn't know it because in this game Brainiac is a fucking dumbass. Somehow captures the Justice League, sends them out one at a time to face the Suicide Squad who defeat them all then tries to fight them using the powers of a Justice League member they've already fought and killed.
Joker is a popular character.. Dev thought this will boost their sell. You have to blame the marketing team for this atrocity. I totally miss the days.. when devs used to think Video game is a art. Now Big companies have turned Video games into consumable products like pizza and burger.
Here's a tip for anyone that wants to enjoy this game don't treat it like a job just play a hour or 2 grind a few missions and move on I don't know it's not the best game but it's not as bad as everyone says
Conspiracy theory, I think Joker wasn't supposed to come out until Christmas 2024 and other characters like deathstroke was supposed to come out now but they thought moving him up to the first dlc would boost sales which is why it feels so rushed and unthoughtful and all the present stuff.
Actually, Strongholds were released in Episode 1 of Season 1, but no one knew what they were. Later we find out they were those terraform and bug-out missions we've already done before in Pre-Season. They were one-and-done missions to kick off the Episode. That pissed a lot of people off.
The only thing that can redeem this game is if they add brand new maps with atleast 3-4 different types of regular enemies and 5-6 actual honest to God boss fights that don't revolve around you running all over the map and shooting purple weak points while the boss floats in the sky. Also adding individual special powers, removing the God Awful clutter in the UI, instead of numbers popping up just add a health bar to enemies, adding few NPCs that can send you down on sidequests which unlock more powers / boss fights could also help.
3:05. This Joker introduction looks like ass. I believe the comic book cutscenes in Marvel contest of champions looked better, and that game is a free to play mobile game.
It’s funny to hear complaints about grinds like this when this is honestly kinda a better case scenario if they keep with this. I play DBD and half the characters I have to buy with actual money if I want anything licensed and to get one character that isn’t licensed without money takes like 15 hours of gameplay to grind out the necessary shards to get maybe half the dlc.
Companies think about the business model, the monetization, the "cash grab", the update cycle. When will they think about the game? Make people EXCITED to play the game, then ask your loyal base to pay extra for something actually extra. Skins are STUPID LOL I don't understand why "customization" is considered a luxury in gaming. Let people do what they want, like all of it, 100% of your content should be available when someone buys a game. Then introduce something exclusive. Nothing makes people want to rush a story and turn it off quicker than seeing content they need to pay more to use.
Why? Do you guys really want to know why? Maybe because we wanted and asked for a Justice League game for years now, and you guys are giving us this? Are you serious WB? Just imagine guys! a whole Justice League game with Atlantis missions for aquaman, and missions in space for Superman, and for batman, it will be the arkham style missions... the potential is extremely boundless. I just don't understand WB anymore why not make a jl game which will get them millions of dollars?
Remember, they killed an awesome diablo-like hack n slash with tons and tons of marvel characters to release avengers. Marvel Heroes. I even got to the point where I unlocked my favorite characters and thought of paying money for some costumes. Yes, it was tedious and grindy too but it was actually a lot of fun! I still want Marvel Heroes back with all their MTX since that was more fun than suicide squad and avengers combined! Stay crunchy.
It’s been a while since someone has come at me hard with personal insults on the internet but recently somebody did because I criticized this game. This game has some loyal supporters it just baffles me that this is the game anybody would be offended when they hear criticism.
The internet, especially Reddit, has become full of obsequious corporate defenders recently. I guess they feel it's their job to push back on any criticism that these multi-million dollar corporations are receiving. I heard a podcast recently where someone claimed that the games media is the reason this game is not doing well.
@@TheHOOfan1 I agree. I like the game Days Gone but when it was released it was a buggy mess & still had lots of bugs 2 years after it came out when I played it. Along with that the promotions for it showed the player with an end game build which takes 30-50 hours to get so obviously some people abandoned the game early. Because the game didn’t sell well at launch it’s not getting a sequel. It’s become popular for people to blame gaming media but they just pretend the issues the game had along with its misleading promotion never happened it’s 100% IGN & Gamespots fault.
@@Thatdeal79 That was Sony's fault for sending a buggy product out to reviewers. I didn't play it until 2022, and I loved it. I've heard the day 1 patches for it though fixed a ton of the bugs that made it unplayable to the review press. Suicide Squads problem though, is they are forcing live service elements and a lame story into a universe no one wants them in.
@@TheHOOfan1 Definitely 2 different games I was just giving an example of your point. Game companies release games that got issues & people try to blame bad reviews for it not doing well.
Traditionally, Jack Napier becomes the Joker in his early 30s. So they had me curious about a 20-something Joker. Which we've never seen before, even in the comics. But you can't do anything with him in his five minutes of screen time.
You can really see flashes of a great game at moments during the main game. I love the groups dynamic until everything becomes incredibly repetitive to service the model
I played through the game solo and really enjoyed the gameplay and traversal. It was truly a lot of fun. But I was playing solo, and didn't have the connectivity issues others had. And despite enjoying it, I grew tired of the post-game content pretty quickly. The thing I truly couldn't get over was when I got into the season pass and realized that I couldn't play Joker right away. And all of my mastery levels reset. That reset was just brutal. It was not worth it at all. I've not unlocked Joker yet, and honestly, will likely never turn the game on again. Which is sad, because I really did enjoy myself at first.
Because people are starting to see through “games” that are released that are really just storefronts for MTX with some gameplay on the side. Thank god.
@@sikevillainonly if you grind for 8-10 hours of the exact same content after beating the main game only to be stuck doing those same exact missions just with your new character. Otherwise you’ve gotta pay
@@NationalPjVillain i don't mind repetitive games as long as the gameplay is fun enough for me but I'm a maniac that plays anything lol.. avengers and Gotham knights burnt me out bad but I still enjoy playing this game despite the flaws & issues.

I still love people defending this game..go on continue and defend it until it either gets shut down or goes free to play😂glad you spent 70$ on a game that’s gonna get shut down soon
Honestly I dont think Suicide Squad deserves the hate. The game is honestly awesome with some flaws but it isnt as bad as people describe. " Oh AAA Garbage" When they have not even played the game. I think it is just hate because some popular people said so.
No, because it’s genuinely a downgrade in quality of what rocksteady put out before. Need I remind you that the game would literally beat itself on load up for some players? Not to mention how the game just makes the justice leagues deaths so anti climatic
They straight up didn’t want to pay the voice actors to come back and record new lines for/with the Joker. That’s why it all seems disconnected and they talk “around him”. Also why they all pretty much just ignore him during regular gameplay. The ABSOLUTE BARE MINIMUM 😂
Most of the criticism I think comes from its association with the Arkhamverse. It might be a mediocre affair on its own, but when it's set in the same universe as the previous instalments, it immediately becomes a pathetic entry, not to mention a blatant cash grab.
No, there's so many other games you could play that don't waste your time, and value it. I'm sure you haven't played every banger of a game since the 90s, so get on it.
0:15 journalist always blame the parent company but that is not always the case like in Anthem's situation where it was BioWare who decided to make the game not EA according to Jason. People just cope because they can't accept the fact that their beloved developers is now dead. Their founders and higher rank also quit and formed their own studios.

I pre ordered this game and was super excited and played it all the way through on release. I went in blind as I always do with no outside opinions affecting my bias. It started out pretty fun but the gameplay loop became overly repetitive. There is a huge lack of enemy variety. The story started out okay but ended really bad in my opinion especially with how they handled Batman in this game. I did enjoy hearing Kevin voice act one last time though. It being a live service game is genuinely stupid in my opinion. The game is only interesting during the initial play through because the Justice League is in it. After beating it I personally lost all interest to keep playing because at the end of the day its just a looter shooter live service game. If I ignore the fact that this game is a Suicide Squad game and just another shooter game I still think the gameplay is mediocre at best. Its a shame because I enjoy the Suicide Squad characters but wish it was more in kin to the Arkham Games with each character feeling unique with their own comic traits and abilities. For example, Captain Boomerangs gameplay should be mostly boomerang gameplay but instead you're pretty much forced to use guns and can also use the same snipers as Deadshot which also takes away from Deadshots unique ability to be the best sniper/shooter. Instead the only variety is different guns and some traversal abilities. Obviously this is the case because its a looter shooter live service game but if that's the route Rocksteady wanted to take they should of made a completely seperate IP instead of trying to use the Suicide Squad characters to boost hype for the sole purpose of making a profit. That's what they decided to do instead of making a good game and for Rocksteady to sell out like that is baffling. They use to hold a legendary status in the gaming industry. Now they have stained their name with this mico transaction garbage. The graphics and small details compared to any previous Arkham game is also laughable. Its a shame we waited years since Arkham Knight to be given this half assed "Suicide Squad" game.
This game is a super clear example of the folly of top-down design by people who have never played a video game in their life
That is the biggest fact ever about this game! I can tell by the “communication “ they send us. We “hear” you and we will address….. just stfu, how about that and listen to your DEVS and quit releasing dog shit and endless drip feeds. For the love of GOD please bury live service games forever and play your game before you release it. Sounds simple and you have testers. Who? Sweet Baby video game testers? If you sat down and played your GD game, you couldn’t help but notice the shit we bitch about! What does it take for you to see that gamers care and want to help you but you keep bending us over and asking for more time and money.
and they know good single player games can be a success but choose to double down on the crap thats hurting them
@@adad87821 that’s because the people who make the decisions aren’t negatively impacted by failure. If a multi-year live service gamble loses money, they take a massive golden parachute and move to a different studio to try the same tactic. But if it succeeds, the profits are nearly limitless and these execs share in that. There’s no downside to anything but their reputation so they’ll gladly gamble hundreds of millions hoping to be one of the .5% that actually works
Fuck the suits! Let gamers make the games again!
Its not just the higher ups. A lot of game devs seem to have hatred for gamers and use every excuse to hate them.
The OG rocksteady studio heads leaving their own studio was your first sign
They left after it was done tho
@@DCFan2008 exactly bro lol the finished product was so bad they left.
@@DCFan2008false, they left almost a year before completion. Stop spouting bullshit
@jeffreyklima7612 I'm not spouting bullshit because by that point they definitely had a lot of the game done the main story figured out remember this game was worked on since after the release of arkham knight
@keetonmillns7065 more bs. It's well documented this game went under hundreds of changes right up until release.
Oh yeah, Suicide Squad is a game. I forgot about it.
Yeah just like how I forgot Skull and Bones is a game
Do yourself a favor and forget again
They'll shut down the servers by the end of the year and everyone will forget except the greedy CEO's holding the bag.
And Gameranx is here to milk it for views.
@michealgatling it's cathartic tho.
The fact that Helldivers 2 exists at the same time is also a huge problem for Rocksteady. A better Game as a Service game that is not only cheaper, it's constantly changing and getting new content.
Helldivers really took that "simple but effective" approach and polished it till thoroughly, then released it for an extremely reasonable price. Most pleasant surprise to gaming in a while, for me
Ehhhh tbh if you weren’t the original 10 thousand that play the first one over the last ten years you shouldn’t be talking about a game you found on tik tok haha
@Blahhhhhh156 First time I've seen gaming elitism 😂 do you only want those 10k people to buy the second game? I get the tiktok hate but let people play and enjoy games, chill
@@SJC9726 I do!?? Your the ones taking the fun out of it rushing the developers (a small team) for constant content updates as well as making the community very toxic. We were fine without you😎😎
@Blahhhhhh156 I have no idea what you're on about 😂 I'm not rushing anybody. I, an adult, rarely have time to play and struggle to keep up with the updates. If they wanna take time to cook I'm happy with that, that goes for any game company. You'd rather the devs didn't make money and only sold 10k copies, I'm not the one with the problem here
Those random joker themed props remind me of the Willy Wonka “event” in Scotland. 😂
Honestly man😭😭
I didn’t buy the game but this is just sad lol I was expecting something like the pic😭
both are similarly depressing.
I never thought I’d see the day where The Avengers gets more praise than something Rocksteady created… these are dark times…
AMEN to that!!! man, we ARE in the dark timeline.
I mean, a lot of good games were released this year. Just not by rocksteady.
we truly live in the weirdest timeline
Avengers is a better game than suicide squad and gotham knights
@@NadeemShekh-uy9znit really is to bad it died.
The fact that there is legitimately only a single cutscene with a modicum of interaction with the Joker that has ZERO interaction between him & Harley genuinely feels like a deliberate put-on, as though WB/Rocksteady are explicitly stating they want to grant the bare minimum & daring us as consumers to call them on it. You’d genuinely have to go out of your way to make the Joker inclusion completely uncompelling & uninteresting
You losers just like to hate on the game for no reason. But going over the lack of interaction harley and joker had just clearly tells me that you must be 14 years old.
No adult acts like this. And don’t say it’s criticism because it’s obviously not
@@Mr.Drew70 Right...uh why exactly must I be 14 years old? Because I would like to see characters who have an explicit connection with each other in their source franchise have an interaction within a game ostensibly based on that franchise? What exactly about that is an immature demand. And I don't hate the game for no reason. I literally gave a reason. Its fine if you don't think that reason is valid but I'd say it's more of a sign of your immaturity to come to the rescue of a video game many people have serious & reasoned issues with & claim it is all just blind hatred because you can't stand the thought that not everyone is willing to bow at the alter of the game that you like. If you like it, you don't have to get pissed off that other people don't. Yet here you are trolling YT looking to call people 14 year old losers because you can't actually refute the issues they have with the game with a sane & measured response. I'm not sure what exactly criticism is to someone like you if you go into every conversation with the belief that people aren't allowed to dislike your favorite game on principle.
A Damien Wayne or Superman game, that's all they had to do.😂
"Batman Arkham Beyond."
THAT was what many were hoping for after Knight.
Suicide squad game was a good idea the game is just shit
@@MetroXLRIt's been confirmed that the Batman Beyond game that was in development was never planned as an Arkham game. It would have been a new Batman universe, not a continuation from Knight.
We could’ve gotten Damian Wayne with Project Sabbath but it was cancelled.
Lame I prefer suicide squad
The Joker was their cash cow, they thought for some reason gamers who wanna play a fun video game HAVE to have JOKER... Maybe but we HAVE to have a game worth playing 1st.
It's cause the Suicide squad films created this dumb HarleyxJoker hype amongst youngsters. Old gamers like us are definitely not their targeted market, they are preying on the young minds with easy access to their parents' credit card (à la Fortnite)
@@DaemonSharkSpiritOfFire true. everything about the chapter screams Toy Store or christmas so yup.. Even Joker himself looks 14.
The problem is the suits are making games, not creatives, not artist, no real risk taking developers, and they are forcing live service, when there's no needs, and if you look at BG3, it's not a problem with being single player, It just needs to be a good game... It deserves the criticism, and WB is "doubling" down, because MBA should not run companies.
Yeah, this game is just trying to appeal to DC fans more than actual gamers, or gamers who just want to run around and fight shit and who don't really care about actual quality. The whole season pass micro transaction shit is so indicative of a profit first driven company, which is ironic since games are one of the best mediums to be creative. The best games I've played are the ones that take risks and do things other games haven't. They just don't care and probably don't have the talent. I imagine they just hire whoever can do the work and don't care for creative input or innovation. They just want to sell as much as they can, even if people end up thinking poorly of their games. When is the last time they came out with an actual banger?
There's a more suitable name for Suits, it's "Sons Of B1tches".
I would argue it’s hiring people who can’t write, can’t make an fun gameplay loop and can’t make an game look good. I don’t even care about cutscenes looking great compared to the world looking good. I mean they failed big time at making each character feel different. I mean they all used guns and all of the boss fights are pretty much the same
i still question that... the story of this game, and tone of this game is the work of the so-called Creatives. And that really needs to take a piss itself. I am pretty sure the next studio will be handed a memo that says 'under no circumstances should the plot involve shooting Batman in the face by the player characters'
The better question is: Why does Rocksteady HATE its own customers?
@@TS-qr3rk
Because you harassed them just for making a live service game. You’re not real fans
Bad game releases bad DLC, was anyone expecting different?

Cause the game is trash, pissed all over our heroes (literally) and that Joker looks more like a K-Pop singer then the Joker
Seriously, the K-pop singer from Dead by daylight looks and feels more like Joker than this guy.

As someone with a kpop pfp, the Joker is a joke 😂 They were trying to do Trickster from DBD who literally looks a lot like a specific kpop star but Rocksteady gave us circus crackhead instead
That ain't the Joker, that's the Giggler.
I still cant get over how busy the screen is at all times. WB did not plan on Helldivers 2 being 100x cooler.
That’s a great point. I had no desire to play SS regardless but HD2 definitely fills that wide open co-op void. Many 13:52 others probably feel the same way.
Very big turnoff. The HUD is way too cluttered.

@@thestonergamer420what if you still want to view how much health/ammo you have? Or when your special ability is ready or what your objective is.
Having the option to hide these mechanics is not good game design. Incorporating these hud elements to be non intrusive in gameplay is the bare minimum and should be expected.
It's way too busy and over-produced. In every moment there is something in your face. Sensory overload. At an attempt to be flashy and keep the ADHD fueled, it's distractingly too much.

Falcon saying that he mightve been doing something wrong is actually a valuable criticism in of itself, because not everyone is a seasoned veteran gamer.
he plays video games by the truckload for these videos and i assume just for the hell of it cuz you know, its a hobby.
The fact that it took him that long to grind out a character rank despite having finished the standard content's main story speaks volumes of how much casual players will suffer to get to said rank. i refuse to believe the sheer annoyance of farming Joker wasnt designed to make people go and flat out buying him with Luthorbucks
Not sure why it took him that long? You get like 2-4 ranks per Incursion. Granted they boosted stuff in a patch and now patrol missions grant no fear rank lol. Most people have a truckload of promethium. I've never seen it below 10k. Makes no sense to have to pay for missions if people either have too much or too little at one time.
@@TheReptileHand I think you failed to listen, he hasnt been grinding his ass off this entire time like the 300+ people still playing this game and he isnt a seasoned gaming veteran. He is essentially the prime example of the type of person who would be dropping into this game, not the deranged sweats like you who masochistically play a terrible game with practically no content. you are not the norm.
While WB is certainly to blame, at the same time the writers and designers are too (And sourbabyinc) . The problem with suicide squad wasn't that it was a live service. It's that it was a bad live service with a bad story, bad mission design, and bad writing.
That's not The Joker, that's The Joke Teller.
The Jester from Earth 3.....but the Temu version

The irony of naming a premium in-game currency “Luthor Coins” after the universe evil billionaire is insane.

That ending killed me xD
Facts. We need more of this energy.
Still can’t believe they’re trying to call this a sequel to Arkham games 😂😂
Pretty sure the only reason they said it was an arkham game was because they were scared the game wouldn't do well if it wasn't an arkham game even though it would of done better if they never said it was in the arkhamverse
I feel truly sorry for you guys. You have to play crap like this to talk about it. Thanks for your hard work!
I couldn't agree more and this game is exactly why I could never review video games for a living.
You can literally feel how frustrated Falcon is and he has a right to be. Like a lot of us here he had mad respect for Rocksteady because of the Arkham trilogy. Oh how bad you have fallen Rocksteady!
The people who made that studio great left quite a while ago.
The shell that's left is Rocksteady in name only, just like with modern day Bioware.
One bad game and they have FAAAAAALLEEEN LIKE ROOOME
calm down nerd
@@ghostoflazlo It's not just one bad game. It's one bad game after 9 years of anticipation for a new game from the studio that created the Arkham trilogy. It's their bad bussiness practices and shifting their focus to live service crap🙌🏻
I paid $250 for the Collector's Edition of Marvel's Avengers and I loved every second I spent with that game. Right up until the end. No regrets. I bought the Deluxe Edition of Suicide Squad and recently just finished the campaign. I still love this game. I'm allowing this art piece to be what it is. However, you cannot deny the repetitive nature and lack of new content. I was really hoping the lifespan of this game would be long, because I certainly don't have a problem playing it. It just feels like it's on borrowed time. That kind of sucks.
Stop paying for stupid shit! This is why these companies keep releasing these stupid deluxe ultra taking the piss editions. Pay an extra £100 for a £2.50 plastic model and a skin in game you'll never use.
You are genuinely part of the problem of why these type of games keep coming out
Genuine question on everyone hating have you even played it?
How did rocksteady go from Arkham knight to this? Like what kind of leap backwards is that?
i guess this happens if you fuck the original devs over and then you donit as wb again with the remaining devs.
i might remember it wrong, but a bunch of the original team left after arkham city.
they didn't even bother to bring mark hamills joker back, instead the gave us this jared leto shit.
I doubt they have even a third of the original Rocksteady dev team. They're probably Rocksteady in name only now.
The let their original team go and hired a bunch of gaming tourists that have only ever played candy crush. I mean these companies are hiring a half dozen consulting firms that all hate gaming and gamers instead of investing in game developing, graphics, gameplay, playtesting, etc.
@@kennethbryant5819I was watching the open bar an few weeks Avon and the one guy that was on and he check nearly nobody that work on this game worked on the olds one
Warner Brothers. That's what happened. We all know what big greedy companies does to talented dev studios. Unfortunate that the industry cannot run without money and greedy people has that.
I'm glad I didn't blow money on this. I knew it wasn't doing good the moment I saw it on sale a month after release. And it's on sale again. I think it's down to $35 which is horrible this soon after release.
I keep saying this... content for the sake of content is one of the primary diseases plaguing various entertainment industries. Catering to the lowest bar of any demographic... the whales, the careless consumers, and the folks that are loud at social media about supporting something without ever really being interested in supporting said something. And that's not even talking about ideologies destroying stories and IPs left, right, and center.
It would be more cool if they just added General Zod instead of a Cartoon Clown with an umbrella hover board
zod is basically superman, why would he use normal guns? the point of the suicide squad is that they are low tier villains, and skilled humans, you cant just pull a zod. even someone like bane would probably be too much above the "power level" of the team.
Yeah but I think it would be cool and they actually captured Zod and made him as one of the Suicide Squad in the comics

First off, that’s not the Joker, that’s a random clown.
Here's a tip for anyone that wants to enjoy this game don't treat it like a job just play a hour or 2 grind a few missions and move on I don't know it's not the best game but it's not as bad as everyone says
And Warner Brothers did the same with Mortal Kombat 1 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Conspiracy theory, I think Joker wasn't supposed to come out until Christmas 2024 and other characters like deathstroke was supposed to come out now but they thought moving him up to the first dlc would boost sales which is why it feels so rushed and unthoughtful and all the present stuff.
I love the anger in falcons voice 😂 “grind again and again AND AGAIN” love the videos!
They no longer have the title of “biggest gaming flop” concord proudly earned that one
Actually, Strongholds were released in Episode 1 of Season 1, but no one knew what they were. Later we find out they were those terraform and bug-out missions we've already done before in Pre-Season. They were one-and-done missions to kick off the Episode. That pissed a lot of people off.

SOMEONE ELSE NOTICED! I was looking through the season pass and was like “hey this is pretty cool…. Wait where the hell is boomerangs costume?!”
The only thing that can redeem this game is if they add brand new maps with atleast 3-4 different types of regular enemies and 5-6 actual honest to God boss fights that don't revolve around you running all over the map and shooting purple weak points while the boss floats in the sky.
Also adding individual special powers, removing the God Awful clutter in the UI, instead of numbers popping up just add a health bar to enemies, adding few NPCs that can send you down on sidequests which unlock more powers / boss fights could also help.

That grind is the kind of crap you pull when you have a good successful game.

Hey
Companies think about the business model, the monetization, the "cash grab", the update cycle. When will they think about the game? Make people EXCITED to play the game, then ask your loyal base to pay extra for something actually extra. Skins are STUPID LOL I don't understand why "customization" is considered a luxury in gaming. Let people do what they want, like all of it, 100% of your content should be available when someone buys a game. Then introduce something exclusive. Nothing makes people want to rush a story and turn it off quicker than seeing content they need to pay more to use.
Why? Do you guys really want to know why? Maybe because we wanted and asked for a Justice League game for years now, and you guys are giving us this? Are you serious WB? Just imagine guys! a whole Justice League game with Atlantis missions for aquaman, and missions in space for Superman, and for batman, it will be the arkham style missions... the potential is extremely boundless. I just don't understand WB anymore why not make a jl game which will get them millions of dollars?

Valid criticism is not crying
Remember, they killed an awesome diablo-like hack n slash with tons and tons of marvel characters to release avengers. Marvel Heroes. I even got to the point where I unlocked my favorite characters and thought of paying money for some costumes. Yes, it was tedious and grindy too but it was actually a lot of fun! I still want Marvel Heroes back with all their MTX since that was more fun than suicide squad and avengers combined!
Stay crunchy.
So basically just replay the Arkham games and just don’t acknowledge this game exists
Seems like you'd have better luck trying out Gotham Knights at this point!
It’s been a while since someone has come at me hard with personal insults on the internet but recently somebody did because I criticized this game. This game has some loyal supporters it just baffles me that this is the game anybody would be offended when they hear criticism.
The internet, especially Reddit, has become full of obsequious corporate defenders recently. I guess they feel it's their job to push back on any criticism that these multi-million dollar corporations are receiving. I heard a podcast recently where someone claimed that the games media is the reason this game is not doing well.
@@TheHOOfan1 I agree. I like the game Days Gone but when it was released it was a buggy mess & still had lots of bugs 2 years after it came out when I played it. Along with that the promotions for it showed the player with an end game build which takes 30-50 hours to get so obviously some people abandoned the game early. Because the game didn’t sell well at launch it’s not getting a sequel. It’s become popular for people to blame gaming media but they just pretend the issues the game had along with its misleading promotion never happened it’s 100% IGN & Gamespots fault.
@@Thatdeal79 That was Sony's fault for sending a buggy product out to reviewers. I didn't play it until 2022, and I loved it. I've heard the day 1 patches for it though fixed a ton of the bugs that made it unplayable to the review press. Suicide Squads problem though, is they are forcing live service elements and a lame story into a universe no one wants them in.
@@TheHOOfan1 Definitely 2 different games I was just giving an example of your point. Game companies release games that got issues & people try to blame bad reviews for it not doing well.
Traditionally, Jack Napier becomes the Joker in his early 30s. So they had me curious about a 20-something Joker. Which we've never seen before, even in the comics. But you can't do anything with him in his five minutes of screen time.
They gave him a superficial James Charles personality, not even 10 hours of spotlight will make him any better.
He also speaks like he already killed Batman lol
You can really see flashes of a great game at moments during the main game. I love the groups dynamic until everything becomes incredibly repetitive to service the model
Well then you must like cringe & obnoxious dialogue because none of them are funny and Captain Boomerang is just a babbling, loud idiot
Cant wait for this game to go on sale for 2.99$ right before they take it off the stores like what happened to Avengers
In the same timeframe we got helldivers 2 a genuinely fun live service
I played through the game solo and really enjoyed the gameplay and traversal. It was truly a lot of fun. But I was playing solo, and didn't have the connectivity issues others had. And despite enjoying it, I grew tired of the post-game content pretty quickly. The thing I truly couldn't get over was when I got into the season pass and realized that I couldn't play Joker right away. And all of my mastery levels reset. That reset was just brutal. It was not worth it at all. I've not unlocked Joker yet, and honestly, will likely never turn the game on again. Which is sad, because I really did enjoy myself at first.
Also, the fact that other game companies saw this game and also pulled the plug on the live service after seeing how bad it got with this game.
Joker looks like Rhea Ripley
I really enjoy this game. I think it's fun with a ton of content and an entertaining story.
Because people are starting to see through “games” that are released that are really just storefronts for MTX with some gameplay on the side. Thank god.

Excellent illustration.👌🏽

How do people pay money for this game AND DLC????
Dlc free smart guy
@@sikevillainok, it still sucks just as hard 😂
@@sikevillainonly if you grind for 8-10 hours of the exact same content after beating the main game only to be stuck doing those same exact missions just with your new character. Otherwise you’ve gotta pay
Consoomers gotta consoom
@@NationalPjVillain i don't mind repetitive games as long as the gameplay is fun enough for me but I'm a maniac that plays anything lol.. avengers and Gotham knights burnt me out bad but I still enjoy playing this game despite the flaws & issues. I agree they probably should have done better with the joker dlc no arguments... Grind for free or pay up is kinda eh lol
The Joker looks like FF4 Kafka
Dont disrespect my boy Kafka like that
Both of yall disrespecting Kefka…
@@darkskinussop5390 LMAO Kefka in shambles rn

Falcon reminds me of Charlie halfway into the vid lol. Delete the game, refund, bring back the BAT. 🦇
I still love people defending this game..go on continue and defend it until it either gets shut down or goes free to play😂glad you spent 70$ on a game that’s gonna get shut down soon
It won't get shut down if they can manage to bring it back and make it more entertaining.

If i remember correctly the devs didn't even wanted make the game, other issue is 70$ for a live service yea no
Honestly I dont think Suicide Squad deserves the hate. The game is honestly awesome with some flaws but it isnt as bad as people describe. " Oh AAA Garbage" When they have not even played the game. I think it is just hate because some popular people said so.
No, because it’s genuinely a downgrade in quality of what rocksteady put out before. Need I remind you that the game would literally beat itself on load up for some players? Not to mention how the game just makes the justice leagues deaths so anti climatic
I love it when Falcon rips a game a new one, that's when the bootlickers comes out of the woodwork.
Fun fact we could have had a superman game instead of this
Oh its jonkler !
Twinkler 😂
They straight up didn’t want to pay the voice actors to come back and record new lines for/with the Joker.
That’s why it all seems disconnected and they talk “around him”. Also why they all pretty much just ignore him during regular gameplay.
The ABSOLUTE BARE MINIMUM 😂
Most of the criticism I think comes from its association with the Arkhamverse. It might be a mediocre affair on its own, but when it's set in the same universe as the previous instalments, it immediately becomes a pathetic entry, not to mention a blatant cash grab.
Gotham knights all over again
Should I play this game or no?
No.
No, there's so many other games you could play that don't waste your time, and value it. I'm sure you haven't played every banger of a game since the 90s, so get on it.
They don't deserve anyone's money
Up to you honestly... I'm having fun playing but almost every time I mentioned it to someone I was called "the problem".
Just replay the arkham games unless you haven't played them yet.
11:42 never in my 26 years have i heard of captain boomerang 🪃 😂
I felt this rant in my soul. Please stop making always online, live service garbage. How many times do we have to learn this same lesson?
Thank God Insomniac didn’t turn their Spiderman into another souless live service
They will try
U know this game suks way too much when you here falcon sounds so pissed
0:15 journalist always blame the parent company but that is not always the case like in Anthem's situation where it was BioWare who decided to make the game not EA according to Jason. People just cope because they can't accept the fact that their beloved developers is now dead. Their founders and higher rank also quit and formed their own studios.
We know how good rockstar can be at creating games though it doesn’t make sense that the game is this terrible
That ain't Joker that's Twinkler
