Batman: Arkham Knight vs Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Video Comparison

Batman: Arkham Knight is considered by many as one of the best-looking games that Rocksteady released. And, since Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is now out, YouTube’s ‘NikTek’ shared a comparison video between them.

OK. I guess I should now give up hope for this game. I read somewhere someone saying the graphics were great. Man that just.... @#$!!

Christopher98d ago (Edited 98d ago )

There's a massive amount of cherry picking here to make Suicide Squad look bad here. The person is purposefully playing the game poorly. And it's definitely downgraded in the PS5 capture, because it doesn't look that bad.

Look, there's enough to 'hate on' in the game as it is, people don't need to play poorly to make it look even worse to make a point.

This is a dumb comparison. This is a combo shooter being compared to a combo battler but they showed nothing of what makes Suicide Squad its own game.

Stanjara98d ago

OMG you are defending Suicide squad... actually I'm not surprised.
Game is garbage, disrespecting OG Dc characters.
Should I explain, no. You already know my stance.

staticall98d ago

@Christopher
While i agree overall with your point about cherrypicking (play poorly, if that was actually the case), i think that comparing melee system was useful, because:
1. It shows how undercooked the melee system feels/looks (starting from 2:50, the player tried to start a combo and instead, it was just a mess, hits not registering, enemies flying all over the place - those 2 attacks at 3:10 should've been a hit);
2. Highlights the worse looking animations for melee system and overall lack of them (hence the inclusion of AR challenge section from Harley Quinn DLC for Arkham Knight).

Before you'll say that it's not important in a coop looter-shooter, consider this:
- they (Rocksteady) have added a melee system and Harley Quinn (known for her melee and acrobatics in previous games and in DC overall) to the game;
- they decided to make the melee system as basic as possible. Yet, they know how to make it better, they have the experience of doing so, but decided it's not worth the time and/or money.

If they would've spent more time with it and shown some care, this would not be seen as another reason to dislike the game. But now it just shows the lack of passion from them, which is disheartening, in my opinion, coming from Rocksteady.

***1. It shows how undercooked the melee system feels/looks ***

It's not a melee game, though... Heck, Deadshot's melee is gauntlet guns. The only reason you melee is to 1. pick up shield buffs after shooting in the leg or 2. to pop them up for higher chance at crit shots.

***2. Highlights the worse looking animations for melee system***

No, again, it doesn't. I have no clue how they got that singular animation off over and over, but it's not great but it's also not that and I never saw Harley do that animation in my short gameplay. They didn't show any other melee animations, just that one shitty one they repeated over and over.

Having said that, I'm not saying they're 'great' only that they're not as bad as they made it out to be with cherry-picked gameplay.

*** Before you'll say that it's not important in a coop looter-shooter, consider this: ***

It's important to rate a game based on what it is. One is a shooter, one is a battler (melee focus). Even more, Squicide is a rapid traversal/shooter game, but they showed absolutely none of that in good taste, only really shit traversal from Harley and nothing about jumping around the battlefield from roof to roof shooting.

***OMG you are defending Suicide squad... actually I'm not surprised. ***

I'm just not defending crap comparisons that aren't at all done in good faith. You can enjoy being ignorant in your opinion if you wish.

blitz062398d ago

True on most points but remember that they are still 9 years apart

crazyCoconuts98d ago

Just in terms of visuals, I checked out since other YouTube videos, presumably 4K, and the graphics looked really bland. Like the lighting seems so basic and textures look bland. Draw distance looks good, and in the daylight it looks ok at best imo

bunt-custardly98d ago (Edited 98d ago )

Actually, agreeing with you here Christopher. In addition there are totally different moods and art styles for each game. Can't wait to play SSKTJL on Gamepass PC soon!

YourMommySpoils98d ago

Contradicting yourself, saying you're not impressed with Sony's recent State of Play, yet you're defending this which looks way worst than any of the games shown.

Always nice to get a pulse check from a developer you know it's day's are numbered.

Toecutter004d ago

One word on when they plan to fix the game on consoles.

Psychonaut854d ago

Bro there’s like 130 people playing your game, just Avengers it already.

BlackOni4d ago

I wouldn't be surprised if there were more people playing Avengers before they pulled the plug.

I don't know a single person playing this.

P_Bomb9d ago

Apparently you even have to grind to get the Joker. Lotsa questionable decisions in this one.

ChasterMies9d ago

Meaningless stat unless you tell us how many people you know.

Ninver9d ago

More than 50 on friends list. About 12 in person. Not a single one of them is playing this.

Days Gone? I love Days Gone.

solideagle20d ago

I think I platinumed it, It was awesome especially the first time you come across the horde

peppeaccardo19d ago

One of the best open world zombie game ever. Very engaging great story graphics and all.
These mofo should go back playing starfield and change phil's diaper.
GFYS!!

thorstein20d ago

The Order 1886 wasn't disappointing.

It was great.

Maybe do an article about Games Journalists Lied About. That would be a good read.

FPSRUSSIA20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

I Agree The order 1886 is Great but Short to bad there wont be a Sequel since the Developers Moved on to other Platforms.

DustMan19d ago

I thought it was great while it lasted. As soon as things got interesting and the action picked up the game ended. When it was over I legit was like "that's all of it?"

jimb0j0nes20d ago

Sure, the campaign was terrible, but MW3 isn't even the top three most disappointing COD games...

anast20d ago

That's a lot of Bethesda games on that list. Where's Starfield?

TwoPicklesGood20d ago

Whole lot of Sony games with Forsaken, Days Gone, Risen of the Ronin, and The Order 1886.

anast19d ago

In reality only one of those Sony games is actually just okay, and the others are good to solid. Whereas the Bethesda ones are objectively bad.

Tacoboto19d ago

Two of those Sony games aren't Sony games and the two that actually are, Sony clearly agreed based on their cutting ties with longtime partner Ready at Dawn and their well-reported rejection of DG2.

I'd like to check out The Order someday soon and see how it holds up since that style of shorter game fits my mood lately, but Forspoken was uniformly panned and RotR is a sign that Team Ninja needs to ease off the gas a bit to focus on quality over quantity.

Tacoboto19d ago

Suicide Squad being at number 2 or even in this list seems like a freebie - its existence alone was disappointing, I don't think many people actually had positive expectations for it near release.

Not having Starfield at all feels like they're ignoring a huge conversation of last year. Even as someone that likes the game, ignoring its reception is head-in-the-sand at best and its restrictions were magnified by its release alongside Baldur's Gate 3. The disappointment many feel about it FARRRRR exceeds any disappointment people have for random third party titles like... Biomutant, and Exoprimal... Same could be said for reception around Forza Motorsport.
