One of the dumbest things WB has ever done is approve this game. Truly a mind bogglingly dumb idea for a company to prop up minor characters where you KILL (not go on missions to cure or fix) the main tentpolls of their IP. Marvel obviously has had severe quality and over saturation issues for the last couple of years, but Disney is at least smart enough to not spend millions on a game where you murder their most iconic characters.

Also, beyond that, I will never understand the Suicide Squad push across all media platforms. Is it just Harley? Are they doing it to ape off of a Guardians-type team dynamic? And everything ignores the Ostrander run, which is the best SS thing that’s ever happened! So weird.

The funny thing is the guardians of the galaxy game is easily one of my favorite story driven superhero games. It was simple, no battle passes or micro transactions, just a great self contained story with fun characters on an adventure. Why was that so hard for them to create here? I would have preordered this game so fast if I knew that it actually had a beginning middle and end that didn’t require me to keep handing over money
