Now, this one may surprise you, but I recently bought Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League as a joke. And no, I did not pay $70 for the game. In fact, I bought it for a far more cheaper price on CDKeys since they were having a huge sale for North American/European game keys. Was on sale for roughly $16, a huge steal in my eyes. Like bro, $70 USD for this game? Yeah, no, I'm not paying that much if this game is in this state. Capped it only because I wanted to get it to laugh at it. I originally was planning to get it through the free Prime Gaming offer, but through past complications with Amazon charging us even after repeatedly cancelling our Prime subscription, I went against getting a free trial for Amazon Prime and we just ended up buying a digital Steam key.
I have been loving the game, in a very ironic way. I'm serious. I only bought the game to see how bad it truly was and to laugh at the game's bad design choices (mostly the lackluster story). I just wanted the game for shits and giggles, nothing serious. I only like the game because of how goddamn bad it is. Literally wanted to laugh out loud while I was playing through the first 2 hours. It's so bad, but hilariously bad. The story doesn't make sence, either - why was the Suicide Squad recruited by a literal FBI agent? I get that it's about the Justice League becoming evil and all, but it still doesn't make any sense to me.
Needless to say, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a guilty pleasure of mine. Because I like laughing at it.
EXTRA NOTE: In short, save your money until there's a huge sale or another free offer. God save Rocksteady.
Also, of COURSE I got Garfield Kart: Furious Racing. My Steam library truly didn't feel complete until I got gifted the game.
I only wanted the game as a joke, not for any serious reasons. But dang, it's actually a fun time-waster.
I've bought that game quite some time ago as a meme
The devs behind it appearently started hosting contests for it so joined them for the heck of it.
