Batman: Arkham Knight is considered by many as one of the best-looking games that Rocksteady released. And, since Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is now out, YouTube’s ‘NikTek’ shared a comparison video between them.
This video highlights the artistic differences between these two games. For instance, Batman: Arkham Knight on rain and reflections. On the other hand, Suicide Squad does not take advantage of these tricks. As a result, the city in Arkham Knight looks better and less flat than the one in Suicide Squad.
I should also note that these games are not identical (in terms of gameplay). Batman: Arkham Knight is an action adventure brawler, whereas Suicide Squad is a looter shooter GaaS. I’m saying this because, at one point, the YouTuber did a disservice to Suicide Squad. Instead of using its shooting mechanics (at 2:41), NikTek spammed a simple melee combat. That’s not an honest comparison and shows a clear bias towards Batman: Arkham Knight. I mean, if you want to compare the gameplay of these two games, then at least show them at their best. Do not deliberately try to make a game look worse as it will immediately make you look like an idiot.
As I’ve said before, I’m not a fan of this new Suicide Squad game. However, these past few days, I’ve seen a lot of people suddenly using this game as their punching bag. People are suddenly upset about certain events that happen to Batman in this game. And I’m like “Seriously now? We’ve known the game’s subtitle for over a year. What did you expect?” If you were against the idea of this Suicide Squad game, you should have expressed it the moment Warner Bros announced it, and not now that it’s “cool” and “trendy” and “acceptable” to hate on this game.
Anyway, our PC Performance Analysis will go live this weekend. On launch day, I’ll be also sure to share our initial PC performance impressions. Not that most of you will be interested in it but hey, it will be good to know how the game runs. Right?
Stay tuned for more!
