Still glad to see Brainiac will be a big deal at least, and if it gets Regime Superman back on the path of being a hero as somewhat indicated, then great.

Brainiac=Doc Ock...😛

He seems cool tho...

Darkseid's super definitely looks better than I thought, though my reluctance on getting this day 1 remains the same. That recent MvC I trailer man...

Impressed that they remembered the size differences in the 4th World.

Holy ****ing shit is that Jeffrey Combs? It is!

*looks up*
Oh, so it is. Sweet. I've seen him in a good number of things.

Shame they didn't get back Michael Ironside as Darkseid, but wasn't really expecting it by this point; he's gotten pretty old and not sure how active he is anymore. The Inj 2 voice isn't bad either though.

Where would be the "Injustice" be if this game sucks?

If it outright sucked (which I doubt given Netherrealm's track record who tend to make really solid games), the injustice would be with still having too many Bat characters. 😉

I know you may be just trying to find an excuse or way to carry your current DC hate over on here, but come on bro.

Dat Darkseid super!!!
Also the design is nice!

Well just to get this out of the way... Oh look, the Jerker.

I know we all saw this coming, but I could or might argue that this was a wasted character slot. 😐 I know how much a staple the Joker typically is, but so ****ing sick of Batman content by this point.

Boooo phuck him....

Spawn better be dlc hope none of the dlc characters are Bats related....for some reason I feel at least 1 of them will be...

At least the comments on Joker's inclusion have plenty of disdain for it. It's ironically gratifying to see the Joker hate or fatigue become mainstream. People are just so sick of the guy and contrary to what WB thinks, you can have too much of a good thing.

At least the story isn't about him but rather Brainiac, though you know he'll steal the show/spotlight in some way. I mean you could hope he's not in the single player campaign but a bonus multiplayer character, but you know he'll generically be in it as a result of some asspull.

To make matters worse, he could be the reason for Harley's regression in being bad again, when in the first Injustice, most of her character arc was getting over the attention stealing ****er.

And yeah, it's a safe bet that at least one of the DLC's will be a Batman character. Just hope it's someone more interesting to play as than Batgirl.

If the requisite Batman character DLC is Alfred, I'd be more than happy with that.

I have zero issue with Joker being in the game; the Injustice universe as it is, is a mess.

He shouldn't drive the plot too much though, no.

I wouldn't have minded if it was just Scarecrow, Bane, Poison Ivy and Harley in the game. They're alright.

But Joker, Deadshot, Catwoman, and cringey cry baby Damien? BLEGH.

Eh, to be fair, Deadshot is a villain of other heroes too, so I'm not too bothered about him.

The others? Bleh.

Surprisingly I don't really mind Damian, but since we're gonna get Jason Todd in some form on top of that, it'll be redundant.

And true, Joker himself in this doesn't necessarily ruin the Injustice universe with the kind of mess it already is, but doesn't mean we can't call bullshit on the Joker immunity trope when it's done so ****ing much.

Deadshot still first appeared in Batman's comics though.

True.

True, but if you use that as a qualifier, the roster would look really weird.

Kinda, yeah.

Huh... So going from the trophy/achievement list for this game, there's one for doing all alternate paths in story mode (interesting, so I guess it has some variation), a number of portal events (whatever those are), and joining a guild (which I'm guessing is like the factions in MKX), though overall it looks pretty easy to complete, especially compared to 100%ing the first Inj, as there's no S.T.A.R. Labs or something crazy like that; just grinding with character & player leveling and unlocking armor stuff over time, so pretty chill.
