I will play it.......with Gamepass....

 

[Shake Your Rump]

the game is locked behind a nearly $100 deluxe edition, which may have limited its potential player base.

MAY HAVE limited? PC gamers need to see that negative green number next to the price before buying anything.

In a completely unrelated note...

So it's not like steam users arnt buying new games today. Just wait until tommorow when Persona 3 pops up alongside it...

Western woke / GAAS gaming is dying and this is good news for gamers. It's such a wasted opportunity. I would have gladly bought a proprer Batman Arckham Asylum remaster and playable finally at 60fps on consoles.

 

[RoboFu]

Wait the game isn't really out yet? lol we can't wait for it to really fail now?

 

[kyussman]

I've been watching someone play this,and good lord.....all that time since Arkham Knight for this......it's like the most GAAS game ever with the added delight of super annoying characters.I guess when they started development it felt like a good idea.....it should be the poster boy for games made to extract more money from it's players.....and it's going to fail and fail hard,I doubt this will survive as long as Avengers did.....glorious!

 

[OmegaSupreme]

I'm glad it's failing. If they get shutdown I won't be surprised.

I have negative interest in playing a super hero looter shooter in the year of our lord 2024

This game is getting more threads than Palworld
It must be a better game, More threads=better game.

"No such thing as Bad publicity" only works if the product is good, or at least so bad its good. This game qualifies for neither so the publicity is working against it.

This is all on WB trying to push Suicide Squad on us when the masses dont really give a crap.

No one will ever convince me that the makers of the Arkham trilogy actually wanted to make a freaking Suicide Squad gaas game lol.

lets not be hasty pointing fingers here. Remember how everyone thought Anthem was something forced upon Bioware by EA when they actually had very little to do with it.

Also, unrelated but oof at that review score for Granblue.

 

[ReBurn]

WB's big game from last year (Hogwart's Legacy) had almost 500k concurrent players in Steam during early access.
It can give a general look at a game's popularity.

I don't think it's the same thing at all. Harry Potter is one of the biggest literary franchises in history and is a treasured part of childhood memories of many millions of people. Suicide Squad isn't much more than a footnote in DC fandom. The popularity of the source material played more of a role in Hogwarts' success than the actual quality of the game.

I know right, it's essentially a super shitty console port, with terrible localisation adding weird slang to certain characters to match the eng dub vs the original lines, so lots said in Japanese that matches nothing in screen.

Sadly not an ideal first impression with all the crashes (lots and lots, DO NOT play in borderless window), locking online to regions with no way to switch them, no crossplay and no ultrawide support. PC expect better.

Steam reviews reflects the product, not the game, it seems fair.

Yep, and tomorrow P3 is out so that’s two great RPGs with great performance on PC to compete with between Infinite Wealth and Persona.

Weird radbrad had nearly 500k views when watching stream maybe it do better at proper launch I mean 100 dollars is steep for two days early success.

It’s certainly going to be interesting to see plus reviews will unlock in Steam.

I bought the standard edition I'm deffo not going in expecting arkham game quality wise. I think it will be solid 7 from what seen.

Impressions so far are all over the place. We will see the aggregate reviews in a day.
