Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League's forgettable enemies, empty missions, and incongruous gun obsession prove why superheroes and live service do not mix (www.pcgamer.com)

Reasonable take. Haven't played it but reviews that say that parts of Rocksteady's charm do shine through at certain moments... but the live service elements and bland, repetitive grind missions drag it down and suck the life out of it.

The fact that a game pushes battle passes and extra stuff after dropping a sizable amount of initial investment is off-putting, but it is good to see it can be enjoyed without them (which is how I play F2P games anyway).

Thanks for reading!

I think with any grind game, it just has to be a grind you enjoy. That's how Diablo was for me.

I do feel cheated like IF they have two seasons already queued up -- isn't that just content that could have been in the game already?? DLCs used to be "hey, this game is successful, let's make more content for it" not "let's withhold some and slow feed it to them!"
