I don't think there was a single person who wanted a Suicide Squad video game wanted to kill the Justice League. I remember when the game was announced, everyone was thinking it was gonna be like...a red herring of a title or something and you were gonna save them. Because, like...it's Superman. It's Flash. It's Batman. People don't want to kill the Justice League. Especially not as Deadshot, Harley, Boomerang, and Shark.

It feels like they didn't learn a lesson from the failure of the original Suicide Squad. Or learn one from the sequel. People like villains, but you gotta earn their love of these characters. None of the characters besides Harley are known in this universe, we know about Harley only because of the Arkham games. They never earned our interest, they're just these random villains with next to no redeeming qualities. That's one of the biggest mistake of the original Suicide Squad compared to it's sequel. People learned to love the group of them. Even the evil ones, people cared about them(Peacemaker). They earned it.

In the game you got 4 annoying characters you can't enjoy at all that are killing off characters who have spent years earning people's affection.

Should have had just a random villain. The moment they picked the Justice League, it's fate was sealed imho.
