Needlessly making the comics and Injustice incorrect canon wised sucked. But the game was pretty great. Dat Evil Ending tho.
Doctor Fate in the comics brought Ollie and Canary from another earth for Batman, suddenly in the story hes like hey you shouldnt have come and joined Batman you were safe where you were.What exactly did they ignore from the comics aside from the Arkham thing?
Hopefully the evil ending is the canon one.
Would make a more interesting sequel.

I'm gonna say it here that I think Harley should've died when Diana attacked her. I also still don't get why so many people are cool with her after the role she played you know helping the Joker. Maybe the comic addressed that and I missed it somewhere.
I read the comics Last week before playing the game:Yep, let's just get it out of the way.
What the hell is canon in Injustice? If I can recall the background of the story as told in the comics, I'd think the game's writers could as well.

Swamp Thing felt like such a huge jobber, and went to waste. Isn't he some sorta cosmic entity in the comics? I understand it might trivialize the conflict, but come on.
Did you play the first one? It's not like it's random and out of nowhere.I just dont believe that evil ending. Its not in his character at all to become someone like that. Hes been the quintessential "good boy" all his life and suddenly, hes gonna be a tyrant?? I dont buy it at all.

I didnt, but i mean, i know the overall story and unless he was actually raised differently this time around, i just dont see how he can become evil just cause Lois dies. People die, people dont become evil cause of it. Unless i missed something big.
Superman was a huuuuge piece of shit in the first game. This one dialed it back up until the end.I didnt, but i mean, i know the overall story and unless he was actually raised differently this time around, i just dont see how he can become evil just cause Lois dies.

I just dont believe that someone whos been that good all their lives can just become evil because of one action. People who become evil imo already have that angry side in them. Like Batman. Batman i could believe it. But superman? That goody 2 shoes? I dont buy it at all. Real stretch.
Why is Wonder Woman so Evil here 😣
Yeah the first game is the essential context for this. After what happened to Lois and the events of the first game his rant towards the end makes sense. How he always had to hold back and living with the constant fear of what he could do if he didn't exercise discretion. The events pushing him to where he no longer holds back at all make perfect sense for his character and ultimately where he ends up here with a power as tempting as Braniac's tech.
He straight up murdered Captain Marvel in Injustice 1.

I feel like both endings were a bit rushed. In Batman's ending the entire stolen city thing seemed to be dropped immediately after Batman and Superman started fighting.
Basically this. I can sort of understand Clark to an extent. But I don't understand WW in Injustice at all. Maybe the comic fleshes it out more?
She's the same in the comics.

If we do get an Injustice 3, it is obvious that we are going to be using the Batman ending. Don't really know how you can make the plot revolving around Superman brainjacking everyone unless if we see a case where Superman decided for some reason, "Now that everyone is under my control here, I want to go to the other universes and brainjack them too!"
I'm sure you could come up with something, but the ending in Batman's is easier to work with since all you have to do is break Superman out and the cycle restarts itself all over again.
Supes does just that in his arcade ending lolIf we do get an Injustice 3, it is obvious that we are going to be using the Batman ending.

Holding back is one thing. It doesn't necessarily lead to anger or becoming a tyrant. Like i said, i can believe that a character like batman can become evil because hes been angry his whole life. That type of character to me is easier to get to become evil because they have that dark side in them already showing.
Superman has never had that unless you shove a red kryptonite in his face.
edit: Like, batman gets both of his parent killed right in front of him as a child, sees that shit, gets scarred for life as hes sees that, becomes super angry his whole life then is raised by his butler of all people and he turns out to be the guy thats the most logical that refuses to kill anyone and the most in control of his emotions?
But the guy who doesnt remember his parents dying, is raised as a really good person always looking out for people, has both of his adoptive parents there for him most his life, and hes the one that loses his shit and kills people to become a tyrant? Does not compute.
I know they wanna make superman more interesting but man, this is not believable at all.
I read the comics Last week before playing the game:
- Everything related to Black canary and Green Arrow from the comics is canon.
- Nightwing death is canon since Damnian is Nightwing in the story mode. But we dont know if his death by accident is still canon.
- Alfred smacking Superman is canon as well since it get mentioned by batman.
Changes:
- Scarecrow is not dead.
- All the Rogues except Captain Cold are dead (In the comic by the end of year 5 both Golden Glider and Mirror Master were alive while the rest were killed by Bizarro).
There are probably few other changes that i might have forgotten.
I mentioned this in the other thread, but I disagree with some of the narrative choices made in the end.
I think it would have been more consistent with the rest of the story if Supergirl was the one who had to take on Brainiac, and then had to choose between the Regime and Batman's Team. Instead it just turned into a retread of the last game's conflict.
Supergirl is set up as the protagonist, especially since she's got the strongest arc of the main characters. But she's sidelined at the end so Supes and Bats can beat Brainiac and then punch each other some more.
All that said, I really enjoyed the story overall. I love every scene where someone calls Wonder Woman out on her shit.
I just think you're being way too restrictive in how you think people take tragedy. Superman has always been an alien. He's had these human relationships here but there's always been part of him that's alone. Dude hears people screaming out for help across the planet and has to deal with tuning it out for the sake of not going insane or being crippled by guilt. His most important relationship was taken from him and worse than that, it was him that did it. You can't just say "Superman has always been a good dude, he'd never respond like this."
Personally I think he'd pull a Dr. Manhattan and just peace the fuck out either never come back or return years later after it but there's room for the highly emotional response he has in Injustice.
I'm getting sick of evil Superman and the constant batwank of this series' story.
Im not saying he wouldnt respond. Of course hed be pissed, but i believe that alien or not, he was still raised as a human by a good family. You cant just erase that if thats all youve known, alien or not. He wouldn't become a tyrant or lose his shit so he can 'control the world'. I dont believe that for a second.
Batman was raised by his god damn butler and witnessed both of his parents get murdered. Hes basically angry 24/7, cant form a relationship with anyone thats not his butler and hes the mentally stable one? lol I just cant.
I didnt, but i mean, i know the overall story and unless he was actually raised differently this time around, i just dont see how he can become evil just cause Lois dies. People die, people dont become evil cause of it. Unless i missed something big.
