It's not that bad.
6 February 2024
Personally I liked it. I thought the gameplay was a lot of fun and the visuals and graphics are great. However as the story progresses it gets a bit frustrating for me. To be completely honest, the concept and idea of killing the Justice League mind controlled by Brainiac is interesting and makes for a good story. However the execution and pacing of it all didn't really fit, and it felt pretty underwhelming and anticlimactic. By the second half of it, it felt pretty rushed. My biggest issue with the story is that it takes place in the Arkhamverse. The story would've been better it was a separate universe. If you are a fan of DC or the Batman: Arkham games, SSKTJL might just make you mad. If you're not really a hardcore DC or Arkham fan, I think you'll probably have a better time with the story than me. By the end of the game, I was left with this bittersweet taste in my mouth that didn't sit right with me. On a more positive note, the actual gameplay mechanics itself actually surprised me. The story may not have been that great but I found myself having an absolute blast playing these 4 characters and doing missions. It gets repetitive at times sure, but for me I never really got tired or sick of it I was having that much fun. This game is not gonna be for everybody and that's fine. For me, it's good. I don't believe this game deserves all the hate it gets. As a video game I loved it, as a story I did not.
