Due to how long these games take to make I can only assume it was full of MTX and loot boxes etc at the design stage then when they saw how bad the feedback was on other similar games they had to remove them mid development

Am I the only one who enjoyed avengers btw? I loved it. But then I only really care about these sorts of games for the main story.

I liked it, too, but the gameplay loop outside of the main story got stale fast. They also should've diversified the DLC characters a bit more: We got 5 new characters (well, 6, but Spidey was exclusive to PS) 2 of them being katana-weilding archers and a 3rd one being another Thor.

I never play these games for the grind tbh. Just main story and move into the next game. Maybe thats where Im going wrong.

Wow who would have thought it would have the exact same issue as Anthem and The Avengers.

Sure is a funny coincidence that these looter coop games all get stuck with padded out and repetitive content designed around 4 players mindlessly killing waves of enemies in an arena.

the problem with the grind in avengers is that the game was designed around you grinding each character, so it takes forever to unlock the fun unique abilities of each character

I enjoyed it so you're not the only one. I still think it was a good game despite its flaws even with the bugs it had. I actually liked the combat especially for black widow and fun shit you can do. I did like that the costumes end up free.

Suicide Squad is a failed experiment. We are past the age that people found that idea cool.

Also, at least in Marvel's Avengers, you got to play as the heroes with cool powers. A game that features the Justice League, but you don't get to play as Supes, smh.

Is something where you just rip off something that someone else has already done wholesale really an experiment?

No, I'm talking the push to make Suicide Squad a household brand that prints money. The first movie made a lot of money, but it also was bad, and people want nothing to do with it anymore. Harley is your only character people kinda care about, but even I feel like DC has overrated her popularity to a fair extent.

Gotcha

Agreed. they dont even keep the characters in the suicide squad consistent across the few movies/shows/games there actually are so theres no connection there anyway

its not like Avengers where you have the ~5 anchor characters in everything

The stat is BS but the profits from a potential breakout hit are simply too lucrative for any studio to not at least try.

Most are going to bomb. I get thought that one that succeeds is indeed lucrative, which is a shame. Games as a service model needs to die.

Copium

You do the same 3 mission types over and over during the main campaign and it's the same stuff you're doing in the endgame. There are 7 escort the vehicle and kill the infinitely respawning baddies missions in the main story. Even the Avengers game people crapped on had unique campaign experiences. There are none here.

I haven't played it, and I don't know if I ever will, but I did watch all of the cinematic cutscenes last night. Kind of underwhelming.

It was just Waller telling TFX to go do this, now go do this...and then do this, blah blah blah, go do this. Rinse and repeat.
