    Well the painful kicker here is that this is by Rocksteady. The guys who made the amazing Arkham games. They threw away their roots for this. Like wtf are they doing??

      I guarantee like none of the people responsible for making the Arkham games what they were were still working at the company when Suicide Squad started development.

        Exactly. Rocksteady was bought by WB. Therefore, it no longer exists, except as a name.

        Companies don’t die. They just get bought and disappear into the corporate blob of flesh.

      Exactly. They really laid the modern groundwork on what this genre is, but instead of getting out of the hole they buried themselves in the foundation.
