Maybe it'll be fixed later on, but this is a increasingly worrying trend

Surprising nobody. Well, maybe a few industry people based on tweets and articles I've seen.

I think the game is too inherently flawed. I think there are some decent cutscenes though, but I think almost everybody who takes comics too seriously hated them.

One comment kinda nailed it though. The only reason the Suicide Squad wasn't immediately turned to red mist were due to their equipments, but this game would've actually just been much cooler if Wonder Woman and the Flash got those equipments, and they had to battle the JL.

I'm just surprised it's not review bombed on Steam. 80% isn't bad

People don't want to pay full price for a GaaS game and there are too many GaaS out now.

It's because steam has evidently been deleting reviews.

And the gaming company who I heard first tried pitch a game as AAAA is launching a flop. Ubisoft hasn't made a good game in a long time

They had a really cool teaser trailer that generated interest.

Once it was revealed that it was going to be service-like game, it was basically dead in the water. The people that bought it at launch are going to be the bulk of the people who buy it period.

The gamers who are really into comic book shit (i.e., Millenials and younger Xers) don't generally care for that kind of game design and I don't think it's interesting enough to Zoomers to distract them from the other service-like games they're already invested in.

It seems like yet another exercise in WB not being able to read the fucking room.

It's not a worrying trend. This is game companies not listening to their audience and becoming increasingly detached from their consumers, and more in love with the business side. This is something people have been complaining about in increasing numbers for a while, it's just actually happening now.

One of those cases where the "vocal online minority" kept gaining steam because they literally just kept adding fuel to the fires.

Yeah I was super hyped by the reveal and then the reveal that Kevin Conroy voiced Batman before he passed. Then the first game play trailer came out and I was out. Taking all these characters and then deciding its going to be a third person shooter is a real head scratcher for me. Who thought that was a good idea?

I genuinely hope this is a financial disaster. Not because of the content of the game itself, but so the suits in charge stop pulling the GaaS bullshit.

Vote with your wallets people. Stop the decline of gaming.

Was this in development through Anthem and Marvels attempt? You'd think they would have reversed course or just made it a free to play service.

Not very alive for a live service

Here's a new similar game from a relatively niche IP helldivers 2

The game is decent all around tbf but at $70 decent doesn't cut it anymore for AAA games. It doesn't help that its only a dozen or so hours long, with nothing but repetitive gameplay after.

Also if they were going to go the live service route then the game shouldn't have cost a fraction of what it did at launch, maybe even nothing. If your game is fun then players will naturally want more and spend more.

But prove to your players its worth doing so rather then nickel and diming them for as much as possible at launch.

Place your bets how long until Rocksteady shuts down due to the game flopping.
