Outside of Arkham and Shadow of War, this bundle is hot garbage lmao. 100 years of WB legends and this is what they settle on

Edit:

I should have been clearer in my initial phrasing. The value for money of the bundle is awesome - even if all you care about is arkham and mordor. If you're a fighting game enjoyer then you're eating well.

It's just a bit of a shocker that this bundle is the bundle that represents "100 years of WB heroes and legends"

It's a bit more like "which WB games have been released somewhat recently that were somewhat well recieved" (which is totally fair for a bundle of this price, its the title I take issue with)

Two Mortal Kombat games, Injustice 2, Mad Max, Mordor games...that's a lot for $10-$15. It's a great deal if you only wanted two games in the bundle. They probably ought to have put Injustice 1 in there, but what can you do?

Oh, I see. WB also refuses to make games that don't have to do with their movie properties, with few exceptions. And since they've entered the gaming industry, some of their other notable games have been live services like Infinite Crisis and Gotham City Imposters that have since shut down.

I've played everything in the bundle outside of Gotham Knights. I get it if you don't like fighting games, but I had fun with every one of them (besides GK, as mentioned). They are all solid games, even Mad Max.

In other words... that's just, like, your opinion, person.

Play the "legends", lol

[–] knokelmaat 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The early Arkham games are quite unique and important games I feel.

[–] ezures@lemmy.wtf 2 points 1 year ago

Ok, I was quick to judge, my bad.

Even then, I feel that most of these are mediocre, even with the Arkham games.

Its worth the price, Arkham, Madmax, shadow of mordor are great games

Dev Game Club did a few episodes on Asylum recently, I agree!

Having not played any of them, and not being a game snob, I'd give all but Mortal Combat a go (fighting games aren't my jam)!
