‘Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League’ At 200 Peak Steam Players: At What Point Do You Abandon A Live Roadmap?
I have checked back in to Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League to see how things are going over there during the launch of its first season, and the answer is "someh...
At What Point Do You Abandon A Live Roadmap?
Sometime during the design phase if you ask me.
I genuinely hope we are not headed toward significant layoffs over there as a result of this game.
Warner Bros. having the artists take the L for management's poor decisions? They should be safe, that's totally not gonna happen /s
200-300 active players seems to be gamers' collective signal of, "fuck you for putting in stupid microtransaction live-service grindfests, you removed what makes games worth playing, so we ain't playin' them". Payday 3 is around the same level.
Remember kids: Management will never risk a damn thing and even when they do lose they’ll be ok because they put all your money into a rainy fund. And they’ll blame every single person but themselves.
I think the employees should get all the profits from the business, since they take on all the risk.
I'd wager that's the floor because a non-trivial portion of that 2-300 are bots or something.
Yeah, it could be the people that launch every game in their library once a day for cards or something.

It's not the dev's fault, they make what they're told to make. But the President of media enshittifier MAXHBODISCOVERYDUOPOLY has stated that is what they will continue to force feed us in lieu of content we purchase to then enjoy full stop.
Yeah, and he had the gall to say that after Suicide Squad flopped. Guy legitimately looked at suicide squad and Hogwarts Legacy, and decided that more games like suicide squad should be their focus.
Video games aren't a duopoly. There's lots of great indie games coming out. I just started playing The Talos Principle 2, which came out this year. Helldivers is from what I hear a smashing success, and Hades 2 is coming out soon!
When a dev abandon a live service game, I hope they do what Marvel's Avengers did: patch the game to work offline, unlock all paid contents, then has one final big discount before shutting everything off.
this is owned by WB, the same company that canned a 90% complete film where the lead was posting pictures on instagram with a face that said
This film is hell to shoot, but it will all be worth it when it gets released.
