Shit in toilet, even less of a reason to pay attention to their games.
I mean, the only thing Warner Bros. has going for it is their licensed games and Mortal Kombat, right? Both are awful too, when was the last time there was a genuinely decent Warner Bros. game?
Edit: Forgot that The Wizard game that made all the trannies(and a certain rage pig) mad came from Warner Bros, for some reason I thought that was an EA game but that was the case for oldschool book/movie tie in games instead
Yeah, that's a good point: A single player game with zero DLC(aside from the token deluxe/pre order edition bonuses) or micro transaction elements made gangbusters, and you're doing everything you can to do away with this system?
Good going! I'm sure this won't bite them in the ass, especially considering that they're not even a major player on the market, just a sweatshop that gets to put out licensed products from the parent company.

Yeah it wouldn't really be fair to call Hitman as it is a live service in the sense that they're talking about, since the bulk of the content (the missions) are accessible offline, and everything else is supplementary. For one thing I've gotten way more than my money's worth on the World of Assassination trilogy and I haven't even finished all the main missions yet.

So instead of making conveyer belt Batman clones they'll be making conveyer belt Batman clones with a shittier payment plan?
PS Mad Max deserved better.

Dumb fucks, GAAS crap is flopping left and right, studios canceling games all over the place trying to get out of it this mess, this is the worst time to get into it. Gotham Knights one of the big reasons people hated that game is the GAAS like elements which added a pointless grind for loot rather than to balance the game and the Suicide Squad game got huge backlash for it being an always online GAAS.
But looking outside their studio, Marvel's Avengers big old flop while Sony's Spiderman games were huge hits and will have been cheaper to make. The fact with the use of digital stores, single player games now have longer shelf life than a game which will close down in 2 to 3 years, look at Capcom their old games are always moving an extra 100k units a year due to this.
People hate when what should be a single player game gets turned into a grind fest, and they also don't have a enough time to spend all these time wasters, if people play a GAAS game it will be 1 or 2 games they stick with for years before dropping vs a single player game which they may play a new one every month or two.
Not saying WB should make anything more GAAS like, it seemed to work well with SF5 and 6 with Capcom and is really the next step after the season pass. Making the next MK game or DC fighting game more in the mold with a steady flow of updates and content to buy on top the main game does make sense. But those games already have an audience who will be playing it none stop, so the GAAS elements are just giving those players something new to play around with and spend money on, rather than to get them keep playing the game they would have dropped.

I am genuinely surprised they would do this after the extreme negative backlash Suicide Squad received. Oh well, less games I need to buy the better.

When was the last time a "Live service" new release was actually successful? Pretty much everything I've seen released lately has been a massive flop and financial failure.
The last one I can remember was Apex in 2019, but there has to be something more recent for these retarded suits to want to get cuked so hard.

WB's free-to-play stuff fucking sucks. They are COMPLETELY reliant on Microtransactions and shove the progression wall on free players very early on.
"Looney Tunes World Of Mayhem" is one of them. It's a turn-based RPG using al the Looney Tunes characters, which sounds great on paper, but in practice it's a fucking casual nightmare and whale paradise. Every toon has a different costume that for whatever reason increases their rarity level, and by the time you spend days grinding (yes days, because they limit the amount of grinding you do everyday, ontop of having some items available at certain times of the day) to where you finish the main campagne, you're fucking stuck at a low level while all the opponents you face from then on will just rape you with a few turns.

Live service is a plague but free-to-play seems like it's good business.
Imagine a DC f2p game where you can purchase new characters, variants and alternate costumes.
If done right, it could be a serious money maker.
However, this is Warner Bros so they will fuck it up.
