On twitter, they're roasting the shit out of this game

And if you don't want to actually read Twitter, here's a guy on YouTube who reads some of the contents on YouTube.

Needless to say, there are many, many problems with this game...

And they want $70 for this enhitfified reincarnation of the RockSteady Batman series? Hell no.

What I want to know is: Who is pushing so hard for the Suicide Squad? Is Avi Arids twin brother shoving money into people's faces and forcing them to make all the Suicide Squad stuff over the past X amount of years or something?

Are they really still trying to force the DC Guardians of the Galaxy so much, still?

Or am I just out of the loop and lots of people really do love these characters?

I mean, while the first movie was very average, the 2nd one was actually fun, and as a bonus we got an even better Peacemaker series out of it... so why the complaint ?

Second movie was amazing. Idris Elba can actually act like a grey character, unlike whatever the hell big Willie was trying to do. And John Cena? Amazing.

It was such a moronic move to call it Suicide Squad because now everyone gets confused between the stinker and the 2021 masterpiece.

No one has complained. Just curious.

Harley Quinn as portrayed by Margo Robbie. They see it as a money-maker

Yeah, and it's sad.

P.S.: Though I guess the point is moot, as movies adapted into video games or video games adapted into movies are almost always bad...

Which makes me think of this masterpiece, apologies for linking to YouTube, but probably worth it : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiIRlg4Xr5w

The "what if we crash?" joke is gold

I question those 8s – but maybe the game is a 8…

[–] ExcursionInversion@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

TBH I haven't even heard of most of those publications in the post. I'm sure the game is 8 for some people ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ not my cup of tea though
