Ahmed from eXputer says, "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a failed experiment that other developers shouldn't try to replicate."

It was great to see the positive feedback to the upcoming changes we laid out in last week’s Developer Update, and so we wanted to take the opportunity this week to touch on some of the other content you can expect to see in Episode 2."
Always nice to get a pulse check from a developer you know it's day's are numbered.
I wouldn't be surprised if there were more people playing Avengers before they pulled the plug.

From looking at both our own internal data, and from listening to community sentiment we’ve worked on a series of improvements that we believe will make for a better experience in terms of hunting for new gear, fighting Brainiac’s forces, and overall quality-of-life."
Despite all the hype, marketing, development time and resources behind them, these blockbuster titles would disappoint fans.
I think I platinumed it, It was awesome especially the first time you come across the horde
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!!
The Order 1886 wasn't disappointing.
It was great.
Maybe do an article about Games Journalists Lied About. That would be a good read.
I Agree The order 1886 is Great but Short to bad there wont be a Sequel since the Developers Moved on to other Platforms.
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?"
Sure, the campaign was terrible, but MW3 isn't even the top three most disappointing COD games...
Whole lot of Sony games with Forsaken, Days Gone, Risen of the Ronin, and The Order 1886.
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.
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.
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.
It should be. Will it? Probably not. I know games take a while, but we knew because of Anthem and Avengers that this kind of game was a horrible idea waaaaaaay before even the Suicide Squad first gameplay trailer.
Devs probably know gamers don't want this nonsense. Many devs started out in this business because of their love for games and gaming. They once had dreams and desires about creating fantastic games for everyone to enjoy, just as they had enjoyed games when they were younger, and probably still enjoy.
I think the problem lies with the guys in suits who sit in boardrooms and just check out the latest industry buzz-words and think of endless ways to 'monetize' their output post-launch. They don't think of stuff like level-design, or captivating gameplay, or innovative new game-play ideas. They just look at a few games making big money through MT's or season passes or whatever they come up with next, and they walk down to the devs and tell them 'Yeah, put that stuff in there".
Every dev in the world has heard the market's response to 'GaaS' when it gets announced. They know we don't want it. But suits will insist anyway.
And then, when the game fails, the suits shrug and get to just move on and make many more bad decisions, while the actual creative people face the consequences. Massive lay-offs, criticisms, online hate, etc.
Not a big fan of Suicide Squad or GaaS so it didn’t interest me much even if it was good.
There is no need for a wakeup call. People screw up. Or have people forgotten that?
it SHOULD be... but I imagine it wont be...unfortunately
