Update changed something with EAC, which is making it unplayable. I don't necessarily think we're missing out on much given the reviews/etc for the game.

The developers have acknowledged the problem and say they're working on a fix.

From what I've read it was already unplayable...

... On any platform

@Fubarberry Oh no... Anyways, the Arkham and Lego Batman games run fine without an internet connection and are actually games worth the money. Vote with your wallets. Show that singleplayer is preferred over live service slop.

Why do you make a reference to OP when you post a comment to the post ? He will get a notification of your post.

That's a user from Mastodon. Lemmy is part of the fediverse so any ActivityPub capable server can see Lemmy posts (it just might be formatted a bit differently). From their end they're replying to a toot.

That's pretty damn neat to see it cross-formatted here!

I've started to see mastodon accounts more on Lemmy. I love the fediverse

Wasn't their peak like 500 concurrent or something like that?

Does the installation even fit?

13k peak at launch, steady 500-700 for the past few weeks. This update is also the first time the game got over 1k players since february 22

I can't believe that this game has dragged the Academy Award winning Suicide Squad and the Satellite Award winning The Suicide Squad's names through the mud like this.

I looked into why the joker was back and found out you can buy him with their cash shop tokens called Luther coins.

Rips hair out

Not a brilliant move. Weekend sale, Twitch rewards… let’s touch the one thing designed explicitly to keep people from playing right when there’s a chance of new players!

No thank you.

No one was trying to play this game on steam deck, or any platform for that matter.
