This was the other video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fJeHgdCLzJu4ZIU.html Here's the streams www.twitch.tv/comicstoriangaming And for those noting, there wasnt much leveling in the version we played. But now that its out, theres a skill tree based leveling system. Its loose and light, but technically is a leveling system. Figured I'd add this note.

Bro ign lost me when they complained about not being able to hit flash in his boss fight 💀And they didn’t even talk about gear and stuff like that really. The smaller creators definitely did better. The story, the melee finishers, traversal and gunplay looks and feels really satisfying. Cannot wait for february 2nd!

Basic af gamer has basic takes in order to not be blacklisted from benefits.

I don't think a lot of Arkham fans know Rocksteady's history. While they're recognized for Batman games they actually made their debut in the industry with a shooting game. So this isn't out of their wheelhouse. Its a return to true form for them.

I’m so glad they didn’t add levels because in Gotham knights it just felt horrible when an enemy was a higher level than you and you’re struggling to kill them

Honestly, the gameplay itself in isolation seems fine. The real problem and challenge with these kinds of games if they want to make it a long-term project is the endgame loop. Franchises like Monster Hunter basically has the monsters as boss gauntlets that you master and conquer as the endgame loop, while games like Warframe and Destiny are basically dungeon crawlers packaged as shooters. Unless the game is balanced around mastery of the system mechanics in mind as its endgame "progression", it'll be really hard to hook in players for the long-term.

Nice to hear there’s no levels. The gameplay and traversal looks fun, and hopefully the story is good quality. Will probably buy this game and play it with my brother.

Rocksteady should have never associated it with the Arkham series. Fans have been b*tching and dog piling ever since. When DC throws “elseworlds” on the product it shuts the annoying ppl up😭💯

This why I follow you g you just get better and better all the time thank you for being you

The biggest Problem is normal ppl don't have 3 friends with the same schedule and pacing to play a Story campaign with, and public matchmaking is always a shitshow where everyone runs in a different direction the main Feature doesn't work in the Real World. You can only play this coop if you have 3 ppl that wanna watch cutscenes etc. It's just not gonna happen...

I think u did more of a service in displaying this game then the devs did.The issue is both Suicide Squad Kills The Justice League & gotham knights tries to ride on that arkham hype train but it backfires due to expectations.I think the games would do better if the expectations r a bit separate from it!!!

Hey Benny. ON BOOMERANGS. In American law (and most other countries, too), boomerangs do not count as assault/lethal weapons, and therefor are not illegal to carry around. And if you get caught having thrown one (sharpened to be lethal) and killed someone, due to their curving trajectory nature, the killer could claim the victim simply unexpectedly walked in the path of the boomerang after it was thrown. So if you had an assassin operating anywhere else in the world but Australia, they can get away with murder.

I want a Rocksteady that stars the Justice League and has like 5 Distinct gameplays for the main members. You could have Batman or have him be a hidden character you earn. The story of the game could even be The JL saving Batman from being lost in time. The villains could be the Legion of Doom.

"I play Destiny" Im sorry to hear that Anyways, see you at the Tower

'Flown out by WB to try out their game( and free merchandise probably)' No wonder the shilling is strong in this vieeo.

I dont think it will honest representation of his in game death. As In, you will find out he didnt really die and was really dressed up as Harley the whole time… or you know something Batmanny. Like when **Spoilers for Animated Series: he was Killer Croc the whole time in the ‘Almost Got ‘Im’ episode.

Hearing Benny of all people say he likes it does wonders to make me happy I am all in on this game. Also the words "Crackdown meets Fortnite" has me so ready to get wild

I can't be convinced by "It's better with friends." Throwing trash into a trashcan is fun with friends but I wouldn't pay 70 dollars for it.

Thank you @comicstorian , this really helped me make my choice about this game because up until this point I was “ I will buy the game , I won’t buy the game , I will wait until it comes” and in the past weeks that was my mood. Now when you explained what the game is , it seems like you and I have a similar taste for games. Thank you for sharing 😊

I love the closed alpha the whole segment in the Arkham Museum was amazing. You got the POV of being stalked by Batman. I was hooked. SEEING ARKHAM BATMAN With the JLA was a dream come true. I wish we got to go against a boss fight though. The ending was right before the GL boss. The only gripe that I had was that they needed to remove the always online feature(which they said they're removing ) because i got dced because a server got shut down. The combat is WAY better than how the gameplays have been which is strange because it seems like whoever is playing is doing the most basic stuff while I was pulling different combos. They make a running gag about how deadshot is black too lol. I gave what I play a good 8.5/10 its definitely worthy of being within the Arkham franchise.

I really hope we get red hood in this game. Would be dope.

Thanks for the review. But the game sounds even worse after your review

no offense, but i'm not really trust anyone's opinion on this. Rocksteady got people who like these types of games. Doesn't surprise me they only got certain people.

You either die a hero or you live long enough to become the villain STRIKE AGAIN

I respect your opinion on it. Personally I don’t believe it is a good game even for live service standards. The story definitely doesn’t reach the lvl of their old games. The gun play will never match what people actually wanted. It’s like being told you get to play as Superman, but your main attacks are with guns. Also the endgame doesn’t seem to have much going for it if it’s gonna be just like the final boss fight. I strongly believe that this is a below average. Again I respect your opinion, it doesn’t stop me from enjoying your content but I just strongly disagree.

Making Ivy a kid was a terrible decision

This game doesn't look like it's for me. Nothing about it, from the story and character interactions to the gameplay, looks like something I would enjoy.

People thinking Harley is hitting on Ivy by TALKING to her is actually so braidead. Like, what?!

You lost me when you said you like live service games. Have fun with this nothing game.

Love the vid and I doubt Rock Steady was trying to make it seem like Harley was hitting on Ivy. Hope you had alot of fun!

Once the story is over I don't have much reason to stay for live service stuff. Hope everyone else enjoys.

You explaining that you like multiplayer/live service games a lot while wearing a god of war shirt is pretty funny😂. Glad you liked suicide squad. I’m hyped.

Pretty clear hint they were romantically involved. I don’t even know what to say…. What I hate about this game is that they should’ve just made this an else worlds story. Rocksteady keeps saying it’s the same Batman we played in the Arkham games. And I love those games. And this game just craps all over it. That is why I won’t play it. Also, I got burned last time I played a live service game. The game got shut down after two years of me investing in it, and it just sucks. Live service games need to die.

Hello. I did have a question about game play but price. Do you think this is $70 to $100 game? What i mean is do you feel...from the short chapter... that is it different enough from any other game like this to be ok with such a high price? I do understand it might be a hard call because of only the one chapter i get it. Even going off of just having fun with friends, 70 is a hard price to sell to my friends when we can easily play for way cheaper or for free. Also I get everyone values the price of games differently. I am just really interested in your thoughts on it. thank you. Also glad to hear you enjoyed it.

My only gripe about the battlepass being cosmetics only, I do however love that they made all story content free for all which is amazing, is that in a comic book game I like to play with all the skins from the characters' history, so the skins being locked behind a battlepass makes me kinda sad, but glass half full, even if I don't get all the skins I at least get all the story, which is still great

captain boomerang… has ONE boomerang…? they can’t even get the easy shit right man lol

Since they lifted the NDA for Alpha players I’ll ask this. The city to me felt like it had no real sense of place, like all the areas I was in felt and looked pretty much the same. That combined with enemies that felt the same (a few different classes but placed in similar groups around the city). Did you get this feeling at all? Sounds like you’re more in the pocket for this kind of game than me, although I do play some live service games, mainly FFXIV but will dip into others on occasion. I really want to experience the story of this game because the story missions I played were really interesting and I love DC but I feel like I will get super bored with the combat and how the city felt.

Even the shills at IGN didn't like this POS game

they've totally ruined this version of Superman. He let Brainiac turn everyone in Metropolis into mindless minions that the Suicide Squad is killing. Then he got mind controlled by Brainiac himself. I don't want a game playing as this failed Superman

I am glad your review is not toxic and I am glad that your being respectful to others views

Had fun playing Gotham Knights with my brother so this looks amazing. I live across the country so co-op games are always nice.

Ngl the game looks really similar to Sunset Overdrive with the way it's played. Looks like its going to be a blast!

I'm Glad to finally hear some positive feedback bout this game thought it was just me

Finally a decent video on this game, im sick of everyone using negative clickbait titles for this game atm and hating on it just because its cool to do so at the moment. I soooo cant wait to play this 😊

Just the idea of deadshot trying to shoot the flash in general is hilarious

I think my big problem with the whole game is that I just kind of don't like the idea of ​​it, not a Suicide Squad game, but rather them taking the safest route for attention, which is them fighting the Justice League. Because anyone who knows the comics knows that somehow it wasn't an absolute disaster, which I now suspect is the reason why Brainiac is also a part of it, so that at least you have an excuse. And that's one of those things that I just don't find interesting because it seems more like the biggest idea that's supposed to appeal to a lot of people. I would have found it more interesting if the game had been more structured with a story campaign that simply took place more in the other, more absurd areas of the DC universe. I think the team works best when it consciously goes in that direction. I mean, James Gunn's film has shown that a dictator can be quite entertaining as the main antagonist. and there's just kind of the problem that the suicide squad is never really used to do, well, good things. I mean, to show James' film again, the US government wants to have the starfish themselves for their own purposes, and the team is often called out to do the US government's questionable things or to correct their own mistakes. and I would have done that. I mean, would you know how cool it would be to somehow send a team of weird villains to South America to stop the drug lord who develops his own powers when he totals cocaine customers? and yes there is a character in the comics called snow flame, or for example to attack the League of Assassins in the Himalayas to get something from the Lazarus Spring because the US government wants to turn it into research programs for military purposes? See, that's what I meant, yes you have a lot more experimental skills there. Besides, we just can't do the usual ones. Oh yes, those are the four popular ones from the shitty first film. okay except for King Shark but it's King Shark and everyone likes it.

Is it me or does the gameplay look very similar to Sunset Overdrive of all things

>enjoyed avengers and gotham knights. I think ive heard enough.

LETS GO I KNEW I LOVED COMICSTORIAN

you lost me when you defended it being a live service games still 70$ still has a battlepass and has an in game store and probably whatever paid dlc they throw in

They turned Captain Boomerang into the Fourth Hokagé

Harley Quinn controversy is fucking crazy. Not surprised the internet would do this.

This guy is convincing me to buy the game🤔. Also I was laughing when you showed that clip of them shooting Flash lol, I think I'm starting to like Captain Boomerang, bro just makes me laugh 😂

If I'm ever going to play this game, the Ivy/Harly pairing wouldn't cross my mind.

At first I was like "Ok this game doesn’t look like my cup of tea but it looks ok so to each their own" but upon seeing actual gameplay, it looks like something I might try out

I was so excited when the game was announced and then like many others, felt disappointed when I heard about it being live service and was a looter shooter instead of having similar gameplay to the Arkham games. I have been back and forth in my opinion, but I decided to form my own opinion and buy the game regardless of all of the things I have heard. I have only played a few hours, but so far I am really enjoying it. I have heard a lot of people saying "All you do is jump around and shoot similar enemies the whole time". I feel like games nowadays do TOO much and miss the FUN elements. I had a lot of fun just zooming around and taking out enemies. The references to the Arkham games are awesome as well! Everyone should definitely form their own opinion on this one!

I have no friends, sadly, but I'm sure I'll have a lot of fun. I heard you got to play with Dame, so you must be good people. I look forward to more Suicide Squad.

I still wished we got a rocksteady Superman game because that couldve been really awesome and tons of fun

Suicide squad: kill my childhood

Wait, waitwaitwait......Benny, did you NOT find the SQUID!?!?!?

Anti speed force bullets are dump. They should of used mr freeze or captain cold or killer froze to slow him down. Or if you want a mechanic then multiply suppressing machines that the flash will try to destroy.

Im kinda glad they announced an offline mode but im excited to play deadshot

Idc what anyone says. I'm excited for this game. I know the story is gunna be great and it's Kevin's last performance as Batman, who also turns out to be my favorite comic book hero. Since it's part of the Arkham series, I'm definitely picking it up. Something also tells me it'll be better than Avengers. Hell, I even enjoyed Gotham Knights more than Avengers.

I would of played as Harley Quinn. 🥰

Literally the only one who actually liked the game, that alone is not selling it for me.

These whiny losers on the internet will complain about anything it’s so exhausting

I’ve played it and my only concern is the overall gameplay and how transformative it will be once you reach end game. When you introduce skill trees and different builds they have to be distinct and unique enough to feel worth it. Your Deadshot has to feel completely different from your friends build for him. Now they say that it will be that way but from my experience with the game and looking at each characters skill trees I didn’t really see it. But I only played a small portion of the the game and hopefully they improve on this upon their final release and it becomes something more akin to Borderlands as far as build diversity

So hyped for this game I can’t lie 😭

Exactly everybody thinks cause they made the Batman this is suppose to play like it and hate to try something different

Love the video. As usual, Benny is always on point. Looking forward to February 2

I got into the Alpha and it’s an absolute disservice that you guys only got 4-6 hours and only some people seemed to get Chapter 1, and no one got Chapter 2. Chapter 2 was the best section of the Alpha with a lot of really solid story stuff and a big sections celebrating the previous Trilogy. This game desperately needs an Open Beta. It won’t change a lot of people’s minds, but spending a weekend with it completely changed mine. People just need to be able to try it risk free.

never asked nor wanted a suicide game, i thought rocksteady would come out with another batman game but the negative culture in todays world is really out of control because i know this isnt a batman game but it doesnt look bad at all. i know its a live service but the petty hate from content creators and people commenting is really something to behold. I think cancel/negative culture made people nasty little karens. Really take a step back and look and listen how petty people are online and in comment section. Its really embarrassing to look at.

The onlly problem i see is that watching gameplay looks off like in Arkham or shadow of war you can watch gameplay and still enjoy. Maybe if the hud was smaller and the camera was more zoomed out?😭

A hands-on impression that feels actually genuine. Also, this video does something unlike the live service naysayers never do: acknowledge a live service game that's done well. Too many are immediately dismissive of live service business model and are quick to point the failed ones to justify such a knee-jerk reaction upon hearing the term. I've already decided I was going to play this game anyway because it looks genuinely fun. Many of the negative impressions from other outlets seem like their basing their disdain on Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League not being the game they wanted it to be rather than judge the game on its own merits. These same outlets practically dismissed the game upon its announcement and I get the impression their minds have since been made up.

Thank you for the video. Unfortunately it just clarifies my first feelings and thoughts about the game. I look at it like this. I don’t want to pay $70 for what boils down to a “pass” to there severs to play a game. These live games are scams. You pay them to play there game and they can just shut it down whenever they want to. Then you don’t have a game anymore. Sorry not my bag. Then this loot shooter thing. Well it fail with Gotham knights and after a few hours it will fail for this game as well. This was an extremely bad idea on there part to make this game this way. Sorry but like they say. “If it’s not broke don’t fix it” well here we are. They should have kept the Batman games going since that is what made them.

Take a shot for every "with your buddy" this is ridiculous

Imagine playing as King Shark and he can't swim in the game.

I’d be more positive about this game if we were playing the justice league and not the suicide squad, the only reason I even care about this game is to see the justice league.

I played the beta for the game and in my honest opinion its fun to me because i don't have to be a hero i can do what i wanted and it was a plus to see my head explode when i didnt return to the mission

Only question I have. In the avengers there was end game content for the high lvl players. Is there anything like that in this game? Where I can fight against harder enemies and seek better rewards

This game seems like a cyberpunk situation and the reason saints row didn't want powers because it would just be this game

Honestly, I was on the hate train for this game at first. But after seeing gameplay and hearing how it plays, it just seems like dumb fun. And apparently solo players can swap between the characters whenever, so I’m sure I’ll enjoy it

The thing is the live services games you listed they aren’t full price retail releases. Also it just feels like they worried about the live service aspect first then the game was the after thought. I don’t know if people will fork out $70 especially a group of friends to play through this game like this. I feel like a lot of the public are getting sick or bored of the live service trend, especially when it predatory and not implemented as well. I feel like if they didn’t have the live service stuff and made the game like how Borderlands 2 or any great co op shooter game was set up people would be less hostile against it. Making the game Live Service already takes away multiple things you can do creatively and narratively, we already know none of the main story characters you play as die. Idk about this game, I’m curious what people will think about it after release

I'm glad you're having fun. Unfortunately, this game looks like everything I hate in modern games. I am interested to see how those spoilers pan out though.

Thank you for an actual honest opinion, tired of these big companies not giving the whole truth

To add on to the poison ivy thing I’ve seen a lot of weirdos get upset because a kid doesn’t look attractive them or doesn’t have that “flair” is a soft way of them saying that sometimes. Like, it’s a kid, why is a kid being attractive their main concern? I have no idea.

Never liked lesbian poison ivy or Harley. Arkahm Harley queen isn't lesbian and was really into joker from what I remember. Ivy x batman also was a thing If I remember correctly. So nah she definitely wasn't hitting on the kid

I feel like I could hear it better from u Benny but ngl I’m wondering where is Martian manhunter aqua man and Hal Jordan yk?? What’s exactly going on

Looks like a little sunset overdrive inspiration crept in. I’ll give it a try only if I have friends to play it with. Since I don’t have any friends interested in this game. I’ll be waiting on the discords

4k Gotham knights, the cut scenes will be cool but as live service game I do not think it will last. This game will be worth it at 75% off.

12:22 Mail me the bullet

Isn't poison Ivy a reference to Gretta Thunberg? HOW DARE YOU 😅

9:00 that's a worrying bit tbh. Now we know why crystal dynammics kept showing the A-Day mission in avengers, it was pretty much the best story mission in the game and the rest was just GAAS content like standing around capturing and area or hacking or whatever.

"Who the hell uses a boomerang?" Batman does.......we call them batarangs.......

I don’t like the fact that it is a live service but I do plan on still buying it and enjoying it

Just from what you've experienced, what do you like better, SS kills JL or Gotham Knights?

I appreciate you talking about what kind of games you like before giving your thoights. I think knowing the reviewers preference is important to understand a review

My controversy with poison ivy is her whole character is about seduction but then they thought it would be quirky to go to kid groot path with her to reintroduce her to story

Yeah based on the many screenshots and gameplay leaks like batman getting shot in the face with his grapple gun by harley quinn essentially shitting on kevin's legacy as the dark knight along with the arkham games. The final nail for me is the story being handled by sweet baby inc...thats a hell no from my wallet.

You mentioned it, but did a Rocksteady rep explain the offline functionality to you? If it’s as simple as “you don’t need to be online to play the game at all” then I’m going to be more inclined to play this game, but if it’s a “you can play it by yourself but you still need internet connection” then I’ll be skipping this game. Any chance you happen to know the answer?
