    Some publisher dickheads are totally unaware their business minmaxxing is absolutely the reason this product wasn’t developed properly but I am sure the devs at rocksteady will get all the flak as per usual and the people actually responsible for this sabotage will probably move laterally to another position where they can ruin more shit people like for a six figure income.

    I’d like to imagine this is analogous to autocomplete on a keyboard, like if I mash “A” a few times to get to the title screen and game’s like “Did you mean A A A A A Start Start Down Start A A B Right Right…”

    I can imagine Rocksteady could have made a solid game in the vein of the Arkham series if WB execs with zero competence didn’t interfere. A real waste of talent.
