Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

Kim Mac Askill the former script writer of the Suicide Squad Game has made a 13 minute video detailing the sexist behavior at Rocksteady.

...that was genuinely upsetting to listen to.

I don't think I can buy another game from Rocksteady in good conscience now.

Like i said, Rocksteady needs to go back into hibernation and fix itself.

That hibernation is gonna require a huge ass rock.

Hopefully they learn from this and fix their shit.

Do they get anything for rentals? Or is it some flat fee, just for distributing the game?

I honestly don't want anything from this studio anymore.

I think its they (Gamefly) buy a set amount of copies that they can do whatever they want. Once they buy it its their's entirely so they can charge it for rentals.

But if you choose to a buy a copy they own, they will then have to buy another copy from the original distrubter to replace the bought copy to maintain the numbers they are renting out.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League got fully revealed at DC FanDome. Coming 2022 for Xbox Series X and PS5. Looks like, yup, Superman's gone mad and so has everyone else.

Yeah, the trailer looked grisly but hilarious. ...But Rocksteady hates girls, so I don't know if we should be TOO excited.

Wait it’s a continuation of the Arkham games but I think Deadshot got a race-lift & I just remembered King Shark was already in the Assault on Arkham film

I think I would have liked this more as a Secret Six video game.

Erm. I made some tweets about Kim MacAskill and her (non-)involvement for the game, but I deleted them to avoid spreading the wrong message and made a new message insisting we fight against toxic policies in video game industries.

I don't want to get blocked by her, you guys.

Do we know what the gameplay'll be like? The trailer has a high energy Left 4 Dead kinda feeling to it.

Sadly we didn’t get a gameplay trailer, indicating it’s presumably a bit ways off in development.

All we know is that it’s combining the Arkham style gameplay with gunplay with everyone of course having unique abilities, ways of traversal, weapons, & equipment.

2022 is a long way, especially with this stupid pandemic.

If I'm not mistaken, Captain Boomerang has... teleportation boomerangs? Did he ever had those in the comics?

It should be noted we have an idea of the setting.

They mentioned they did a lot of work in designing Metropolis, even calling it a 5th character, indicating that the game will primarily take place in Metropolis.

So presumably we start out with the core 4 & as the game goes on & more Leaguers join in Waller sends in the rest.

This looks fun.

....shame about the sexism. It really puts a knife in the gut of all the potential hype.

Rocksteady should use this time to fix their shit while their making this game.

Man King Shark has been making it big now with various characterizations.

In Apokolips War he's a funny brute with a catchphrase, Harley Quinn has him as a lovable but intelligent goofball, & now he's more...... dignified, dignified with a knowledge of pop-culture. He's very articulate & somewhat regal prolly because he's a self-proclaimed demigod so he is very prideful.

I'm not complaining, a giant shark man's a really fun design.

Lets not forget his appearances on The Flash.

Hell, an entire episode was built on the Cool vs. Awesome premise of King Shark vs Gorilla Grodd.

Yeah, our favourite Shark man who is a Shark has ascended hard core.
