Rocksteady teases Suicide Squad game

[PaladinBoo]

Referencing a few posts from earlier, I don’t get why people say you can’t make a good Superman game. Super easy pitch: you take Brainiac, have him break into the Fortress of Solitude while Superman is shrunk down inside the bottle city of Kandor, Brainiac steals the bottle and, once he realizes Superman is trapped inside, he sends in waves of disposable goons with Kryptonite weapons and maybe a few classic baddies (like Bizarro, Atomic Skull and Livewire) to fuck with the big blue boy scout. You’d have a whole city with easily-defined bounds that the player couldn’t leave, and enemies that could actually damage Superman and pose a threat. Why is this so hard for WB to figure out?

Because WB and the woke millennials who work there HATE Superman. Superman is the embodiment of optimism, compassion, tradition, freedom and hope. All these traits are considered "lame" and detrimental to WB and the woke millennials that work there. What they want is for Superman to be Homelander. They want to make Superman into a villain and have their assortment of "quirky, fun, queer, outcast" anti-heroes take him out. Basically what this is is a "Fuck you" to their dads and other old white men who made these characters. After all, in the mind of a woke millennial, anything that was made by a white man (despite the fact that Superman's creators were Jewish) is fascists and must be destroy by queer ideology. It is also wish fulfillment for the woke millennial in that their queer anti-heroes take out the traditional white male hero.

As neat as this idea is, I could very easily see a suit going, "What the hell is a 'Kandor'? Superman lives in Metropolis! You have to make the city Metropolis because it's Superman, or it won't sell!"

I remember playing some older Superman games like Shadow of Apokolips, and it always feels like the devs are stuck running through a checklist, rather than making something organically suited for the character. "Oh, he can do freezing breath, gotta have a section where he freezes stuff. He's got heat vision, gotta incorporate that into some section where he uses it." I absolutely think a game on the level of Arkham City could work with Superman, but there just never seems to be that holy union of competency and creativity.

I've never understood why video game developers have this problem with lowering Supermans power level.

They did it in the Animated Series/Justice League stuff, didn't they? What's the big fucking deal?

Honestly, as a superman fan, that sounds like ass.

I don't even mind the outfit but what's up with that shitty haircut?

Nice game faggots, hope you go bankrupt.

They will. It's only a matter of time.

I think Superman 64 soured the idea of a Superman game for everyone, forever.
Besides, playing as someone with godmode is no fun. You literally have to bend over ass backwards to make anything a threat to him. That's his entire schtick, and it doesn't work well for a video game. I can see why they didn't go thru with it, even tho it would still be infinitely better than this slop

It is funny to me how Rocksteady hates their past successes. The Batman Arkham games are classics. They mainly were successful due to the games feeling like a continuation of the Batman: Animated Series, getting Paul Dini to write the games and the sex appeal of the female characters. However, those things are all considered "problematic" now. Instead they keep trying to appeal to this "modern audience" that doesn't exist. They think that the "modern audience" are just as liberal, queer and feminist as they are.
That isn't the case as more and more millennial and zoomer age men are leaning more conservative now. The demographic of liberal women do not like to play these types of violent action games that have no sex appeal. They prefer games with romances like Baldur's Gate 3 or The Sims (and boy feminists will be all up in arms over the type of men women like to romance in Baldur's Gate 3 and The Sims), and of course the demographic of troons and faggots will never be enough to turn a profit. Which is funny as the only people sticking up for Rocksteady are troons on Twitter.
Rocksteady, like many before them that chased the "modern audience", fucked themselves. I hope that that there will be lessons on college campuses across the nation on why chasing the "modern audience" is a bad idea and that the "modern audience" does not exist.

Why would they care? I doubt any of the oldguard still work there. The new people didn't work on these games and didn't earn the praise, as far as they are concerned the Arkham games are just a stepping stone to establishing their mark on the gaming landscape...by trying to appeal to fellow trannies over anybody else and killing Batman while they're at it.
I doubt they even like videogames, this is just a means for them to insert their own fetishes, propaganda, political opinions and fanfiction while making a paycheck. They will probably want to ruin the IP to "stick it to the nerds", just like JP translators HATE anime and want to "ruin the pedo cartoons for creeps"

So, remember that scene from dmc Devil May Cry where Reboot Dante spits on the Main Dante's character design?

Harley finds her AK suit

Now, to be fair, it's not like she could ever wear the old suit anyway. After her breast reduction, that shit's just gonna fall off.

We also have a preview of shitty Joker from Earth 2. The voice is terrible, the look is terrible, the idea is terrible; but the one compliment I can give is that using the umbrella (the trademark weapon of the Joker?) as a skateboard looks kind of fun.

Holy shit that Joker is awful. This character was written by a queer white woman. This tweet sums it up.

Nobody wants to hear the Joker talk about his feeling, insecurities and prancing around like a flaming faggot. What people want is to see the Joker kill people, laugh like a maniac and slap around Harley. This is not hard to grasp yet companies like WB and Rocksteady get these people, especially women, that have no love or familiarity with the source material. They instead, as @30+GameOvers says, want to make propaganda or fanfic for themselves and their friends.

I think they want to fag up Joker specifically because they are still angry at the recent Joker movie. The one that was popular with anti social single men and popularized the N-word meme.
They want to "take it back" now, that's my guess

The Joker has always been a symbol for disenfranchised men since the Killing Joke. Unfortunately the average libshit and tranny thinks disenfranchised men = alt right incel Nazi. Those are people that deserve to be disenfranchised and ostracize by society and need to be oppressed and belittled more. They really, really did not like that the Joker became a symbol for men disenfranchised by the ruling Left Wing class. You are right that this is the Left's attempt to "take back" the Joker. It is going to fail miserably given that this Joker is a prancing pussy who talks about his insecurities instead of, well, this:

Because WB and the woke millennials who work there HATE Superman.

This is what modern writers have done to Superman: https://boundingintocomics.com/2022...tionally-marginalized-theres-this-feeling-o/+

They literally made a comic where Superman gets assraped by communists.

And then the garbage where they made his son a literal faggot and replaced him with said faggot son, oh and let's not forget they tried to change his motto "Truth, Justice, and the American way" to something else.

DC is every bit as shit as Marvel, they just keep flopping most of their crap so nobody sees it, while Marvel started off strong when it went mass-market.

In what fucking universe? He is a fucking psychotic killer. He doesn't need a tragic backstory, this is absolut dumb retarded shit and makes him so much less fun. There is no difference between leftards writing loser Joker & leftards writing faggot Joker.

He doesn't need a backstory sympathetic or not, he's at his best when he's the personification of chaos and anarchy for no reason other than he's a psycho who enjoys it.

nuJoker has a glass eye?

They did a preview stream for journos and had to restart because Harley's character model glitched and she was just a floating head.

Nice game faggots, hope you go bankrupt.

They had a preview the other day with the Twitch streamers and it was just as bad.
The cutscene with Greta Ivy was bugged, the Squad was talking to an invisible Greta Ivy.

 

[Bunny Tracks]

In what fucking universe?

Literally how, too? The Joker is not a "disenfranchised man" even in the example they gave. Frankly, the only version I can think of that even comes close to that is 2019 version, and even then, that one's more of a symbol for the mentally ill.

Regardless, even if he was somehow a symbol for those people, that's not a good thing because the Joker is a bloodthirsty lunatic who likes to blow up hospitals, and elementary schools. What a fucking great mascot. Elliot Rodger would do a better job garnering sympathy.
