With the exception of Hogwarts, WB games just have that cashgrabby stench to them. Constantly pestering you to log in, redeem this, sign up for that. Rocksteady used to also be the exception

Nah man, they even caught Rocksteady up with that. Arkham City and Knight had bonus skins for signing in and linking your WB account.

Not to mention the debacle of locking the Catwoman content that was clearly meant to be part of the main game behind that dumbass "Pre-order or buy the game new or pay an extra $10" initiative publishers were on back. Just for the DLC codes packed in the boxes to not work. :dead:

Traversal looks fun and I read the supposedly leaked story some months back. I wonder did they change it because of the reactions from it.

Right now this looks very much like a Gotham Knights reskin with similar fight/traversal mechanics. That wasn't Rocksteady.

Definitely in traversal:

Harley Quinn uses the grapple gun like Batgirl

King Shark has super jump powers like Red Hood

Captain Boomerang has teleporting powers like Robin

Deadshot has gliding capabilities like Nightwing

So I see the bones of a 'kill Superman' game here with Harley in place of Batman, Shark in place of Aquaman, Boomerang for Flash and Deadshot for GL. Takes place in Metropolis. But then the studio hits them with the pivot and they repurpose mechanics they had?

Man. In the good timeline, they stfu and let Rocksteady make the Superman game they were clearly intending to do here, and that Metropolis is the setting for a power fantasy game actually worth a shyt that people might have played. But this? This shyt right here nikka? This shyt gon flop hard. The weird sound effects for everything that a character does, the color-vomit palette, the frenetic gameplay to hide the fact that enemies were dropping in 3-4 attacks and the only way for it to be compelling is to be inundated... this ain't it.
