Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

To preface this, I feel like I have to cover my own ass by saying that I love the Arkham games. I still have fond memories of picking Asylum up on Day 1 after school. I remember falling in love w/ Batman, when the last Batman game I played was the Batman Begins tie-in game (surprisingly a banger). I also say this coming off a recent re-playthrough of Arkham Knight, so Arkham is fresh on my mind. All that said... The hate for this game is grossly overblown. It's not a bad game by any means. It's not even a mediocre game in a lot of ways (though it certainly is in some other ways). It's a thorough 6.5 or 7/10 from a studio that is used to putting out solid 10s. The Pros: - The story was actually pretty good. Original? ♥♥♥♥ no. You can see every "moment" coming from a mile away, w/ the exception of certain deaths. But does that mean it's bad? No-- Hell, you could say the exact same thing for the Arkham titles. Visually, the cutscenes are fantastic. Expressions are detailed, the background gags are chuckle-worthy, and the overall animation is very experssive and likely MoCap'd. The writing? It's okay. Everyone is as you'd expect. Deadshot is the Straight Man, Boomerang is the Wackjob Psycho, Harley is Harley, and King Shark is this game's fill-in for Drax (I'm not familiar w/ his comic counterpart, but I far prefer this KS over the one in Gunn's Suicide Squad), a sort of Warrior-Poet comic relief. And the Justice League? They all act as you'd expect their Evil/Brainwashed counterparts would. But while generic and predictable, none of it is BAD. At worst, it's serviceable. At best, you either chuckle or laugh at some of their antics. All the voice actors also put in work. There's not a single bad performance in the game, imho. And since I've seen a lot of "Who the ♥♥♥♥ wants to play as the Suicide Squad? Let us play as the Justice League instead!" I'd say: true, but also, I don't think a game w/ the Suicide Squad is exactly unappealing. They're underdogs, often in conflict w/ one another, and it gives them a goal to reach at the end of their monumental uphill climb. It makes for a good story, much like the GOTG game (though this one falls a good bit short of that one). Personally, it's not a "one or the other" situation. I believe there's a place for both a SS:KTJL game AND a JL game, both w/ vastly differing vibes. Also, since this is a point of contention: I think Batman is handled fine in this game-- heck, before his death, I'd say the Bat is handled phenomenally. The only change I would've made was for him to have snapped out of his brainwashing in the final moments so that he could accept his death more gracefully. I'm not gonna parasocially link myself to the Arkham Batman, nor am I going to make claims that they disrespected Kevin Conroy when he has, iirc, went on record to say that he enjoyed voicing Batman in this game. It's imperfect, but it's not the worst thing to have ever happened. And, if what I've read is true and Elseworlds soft-revives Batman anyway, even better. - The gameplay is where this game shines. From surprisingly fluid traversal (between the two I played, at least, which was Deadshot and Harley) that has a good amount of depth in how you can optimiza it, to the gunplay that was initially kinda basic but ended up feeling pretty good once every piece of your kit "comes online". I genuinely had a LOT of fun zipping around everywhere like Spider-woman, before whipping myself around like a wrecking ball as I hosed down a bunch of goons. It felt like an old school sort of shooter, not too keen on being balanced or grounding itself to realism. The closest point of reference I had in terms of "vibes" was Sunset Overdrive. In fact, a lot of the presentation of the game had that vibe to it, for better AND worse. There are even some (not many) cool set piece moments, like being hunted by Batman, or the boss fights (more on this later lmao). I know I might be understating it here, but I can't tell you just how much fun the game CAN be when it all clicks. - Metropolis. It's gorgeous. If you've played City or Knight, you'll know Rocksteady has the sauce. Much like those games, Metropolis is oozing w/ style and references. There's not much else to say here. I think even the biggest hater of this game can admit that KTJL's Metropolis is a beautifully rendered interpretation. The Cons: - All the live service ♥♥♥♥. Want another skin? 10 bucks in the store, because the only skins in the game you'll get are variants of your prison jumpsuit or slight variations on their cover art fits. Want old school Harley? Shop. Want Arkham Harley? Shop. Want Classic Deadshot? Shop. The BPs also feel like ass, as most BPs do. They progress slow as hell, and the rewards are underwhelming as ♥♥♥♥, though this might be a blessing in disguise. - The ARPG ♥♥♥♥. Now, I love me some Shlooting. I play Destiny and Borderlands, so I'm used to this. That said, it's so out of the way here for most of the game that I question whether or not this was a constant point in their development or tacked on at a later date. I'd honestly rather they just gave us "Stock" guns of varying ROFs (say a semi-auto sniper and a bolt-action one) then let us mod it at our own leisure as we do the sidequests for the "Support Squad". As it stands, it's just... whatever. Not bad -- there are certainly some affixes that can be pretty fun -- but it's so blase that I'd much rather the game just NOT have it. Oh, and worse yet, if you want to recieve your loot post-mission? I hope you wanna sit through the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lootbox animation over and over! - The level design... or lack thereof. There are very few "missions" in this game. By that, I mean that while you do many missions, most of them are some variation of 5 mission types: "Kill ♥♥♥♥, protect ♥♥♥♥, find ♥♥♥♥, collect ♥♥♥♥, protect ♥♥♥♥ 2.0", most of which are set out in the open world. Now, that itself isn't a crime. The Arkham games were some variation of "Go here, do XYZ, repeat" as well. Most games are. But when you did a story mission, they often took you to a set piece, or at least a set location. In this game, about 80% of the content is set in the overworld. Part of it, I can forgive, as it's to accomodate for everyone's aptitude for verticality, but at the same time, they can design levels around that. - The "Endgame". When you finish the game, you haven't "finished" the game. You're sent out to do the same repetitive tasks over and over again, only to culminate in the same few bosses over and over again. Now, I liked the bosses... once. I don't want to fight reskinned versions of them again and again 12 more times. But worst of all... - The optimization. There's no if/ands/buts here. It is just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. My rig is pretty hefty, and while the game looks good, it does NOT look good enough to justify drops down to ~55FPS when I'm playing on 1080p. However, despite all that, I think the Pros FAR outweigh the Cons, despite it seeming like there are more Cons than the former. It's a FUN game, and I can see it getting MORE fun w/ friends, though it was perfectly viable solo. And for the ~5 bucks it frequently drops down to? I'd say it MORE than pulls its weight-- heck, I'd say it'd even be worth upwards of ~30 if you treat it as a sort of "one and done" ARPG/story rather than a Forever Game like WB likely wanted it to be. tldr fun game, horrible live service. Buy it for cheap, play through it, enjoy the story, move on.

Jogo meme, pra resenhar com os manos numa promo só na risada

Neskutočný odpad aj po toľkom čase od vydania. Rozbitá, nekvalitná sračka na ktorú sa vývojári vysrali už pred vydaním!

Super geiles Spiel. Die Idee mal die Bösen zu spielen und die Guten fertig zu machen ist mega. Gameplay an sich ... ein Traum, es macht richtig Bock zu zocken.

Le doy 4 de 5 estrellas al juego, tiene cosas que mejorar pero si es entretenido

Great story, excellent acting, amazing traversal! The gunplay is pretty generic, fairly weak. And the constant forcing of RP walking and menu surfing is frustrating. But the story is great enough to carry this well into positive territory.

cool

할리 퀸 캐릭을 개인적으로 좋아하여 팬심에 할인 전에 사 놓고 플레이 안하고 있다가 몇 년이 흘러서 이제야 평가를 남깁니다. 부정적인 평가를 주신 분들의 이야기에 많은 부분 공감하였습니다. 하지만 부정적이라고 평가하기에는 아까웠습니다. [참고로 저는 모든 게임을 최고 난이도로 무조건 설정하고 플레이하는 유저입니다.] 부정적 평가에서 일부 부분만 언급하겠습니다. 1. 게임 튕김 현상 없었습니다. 6일 동안 5시간~7시간 연속 플레이하면서 단 한번도 튕긴 적이 없었습니다. 아마 튕겼다면 사양 문제일 것 같습니다. 2. 화면 끊김 증상 게임 플레이 중에 컷 신 시작 시 GPU사용량이 100%를 찍으면서 갑자기 끊기기 시작합니다. 이때 잠시 일시정지 하고 옵션에 들어가서 5초 정도 가만 있으면 GPU사용량이 안정화 됩니다. 다시 게임으로 돌아가면 끊김없이 돌아갑니다. 문제는 이런 행동을 컷 신 나올 때마다 해야 한다는 거... 3. 스토리 DC관련 스토리에 크게 관심이 없어서 게임에서 배트맨 죽을 때 빼고는 뭐 그냥 그랬습니다. 여기에 PC를 논 하기엔 별 느낌없었습니다. 4.할리퀸 조작이 어렵다? 크게 어렵지 않았습니다. 조작이 어렵다면 초반 조작설명을 너무 빨리 넘겼거나 사이드 퀘스트에서 연습을 제대로 안 하셨을 것 같습니다. 오히려 스킬이나 아이템 조합에 따른 변화가 없어서 특정 상황에서 해당 스킬을 정확히 쓰기만 하면 되어 모든 캐릭의 플레이가 단조로웠습니다. 단, 에임 실력이 떨어지면 스트레스 받을 수 있습니다. 초보자는 설정에서 에임 보정을 쓰는 게 좋습니다. 할리 퀸의 와이어 컨트롤도 초반에만 어렵지 와이어 기술 정확히 숙지하면 상대 기술을 화려하게 피하는 느낌을 주어서 손맛이 있습니다. 최종 보스잡는 것 까지는 할 필요 없이 슈퍼맨까지만 플레이하고 정신없이 피하고 때리고 쏘고 오픈월드 돌아다니는 재미 만으로도 지금 가격이면 혜자라 생각합니다.

Honestly the bad reviews for this game is something else, everyone moaning because it´s not like the arkham games, it´s not, it´s a fun rpg style game, similar to marvels avengers or gotham knights, which I can understand isn´t everyones idea of fun but for me I can definitely say that so far, I am finding the game very enjoyable. I have had 0 frame rate drops, 0 crashes and so far it´s been smooth sailing. Maybe not 60 or 90 quids worth, but if it´s on sale, then I´d say go for it.

eu acho q de todos jogos de super heroi esse é um jogo
