@games The Suicide Squad may already be dead, with Kill the Justice League game previews not looking so good
live service
already dead to me
It’s okay, don’t worry. They “don’t really think of [their] game as fitting with any particular label”.
Tldr, the games director never referred to it as a live service game (even though it has all the elements of one and takes a lot from other live service games).
Mmhmm, somehow that’s not too convincing.
You can’t play it offline still, but it’s not a live service lol.
My best guess is that when they first started giving the earliest look at the game, they were (somehow) very surprised at the backlash to their trend-chasing formula; and then, from there, may have completely stumbled in trying to totally re-focus the game into something people would like without remaking it from scratch.
What makes it most tragic is that this is the last instance of Kevin Conroy’s Batman VA. It’s not a good close to such a legacy.
Strange, I saw several people being impressed with the gameplay during the alpha.
