You think it'll make money? The Avengers game barely made any money, right? And that was the Avengers. There have been two Suicide Squad movie bombs.
The enthusiast audience who could name Rocksteady already know this thing is radioactive.
Mainly because of the hype/marketing, but I may be overestimating it. It's a good point that Avengers bombed, but I do think Rocksteady is a more competent developer than CD (I'm not personally a big fan of their Tomb Raider games).
I also just tend to think anything is possible until it isn't. It wouldn't be the first game to buck expectations if it somehow managed to be a hit.
Either way, the fact that this is the only game Rocksteady releases in nearly 10 years will be a deep source of bitterness.
