I wish Suicide Squad never existed man
This is linked to Neogaf, which quotes Twitter but sources a non-existent link on some site called “Tweaktown”…when you could have just linked to Twitter itself?
EDIT: here, I dug it up:

Nintendo Switch and Mobile games developers: *Pathetic*
I paid $150 for my Series S at Costco. I otherwise wouldn’t have a current gen system. That’s the market for this thing.
I don’t think there’s been many games that justify the $500 for a Series X or PS5.
Looks like a bot posting.
“Neogaf” is a fanboy website that shades (trash talks) every gaming platform that isn’t Sony Playstation. You can not (and should not) take them seriously.

yea well they didnt have deadshot say “what are we? some kinda…..suicide squad?”
so i hate that game for that sole reason lol
Game developed for 20+ years;
This is always the case, you set your target platforms and one is always at the bottom of the pile. For most console generations it was Nintendo with GameCube, Wii, Wii-u and Switch… to the point where most developer’s now only do a Switch port post release if there’s proven market justification.
For this generation the series S is bottom of the pile… and all developers (esp artists) want more polys, materials and complex shaders and would rather target the most powerful hardware.
That’s weird. I’ve seen a few people on the Xbox subreddit say that all you need to do is simply make the game run at 1080p and it’s as simple as that.
Oh yeah, Series S is for sure why your game was so f-ing bad. Sure.
God forbid devs optimize their games, i wonder how the pc specs would’ve changed had the series S not existed.
Where are these comments always coming from developers of the shittiest of games?
I mean it’s true. Series S might be great for the budget audience but it lowered the denominator.
The PS5 and Series X outclass it but the games have to be made to the Series S level.
I wish suicide squad didn’t have exists. But here we are aswell.
Has it really been almost a year since that game released? My sense of time is all screwed up
Bro worked on a piece of shit and blames the existence of a budget current gen for his own idiocy… What a timeline.
How much extra work is needed for a series s? All they need to do is get it to run at 60fps on 1080p and optimise it later down the line
WB wishes the game was never developed.
*poof* money gone
Funny, I say the same thing about the Suicide squad game
I actually despise Playstation 3 disturbing gaming hardware evolution. Complicated CELL architechture.
Xbox 360’s successor should’ve come out around 2011 or 2012, marketed as DirectX11 tesselation console.
i keep saying it. the series s needs to be moved to cloud only gaming. just develop for the series x
Series S is a blessing.
If your game can’t run on series S then the ps5 and Xbox runs crap and the pc version might it even exist.
People called out the series S and Xbox’s parity rule as an issue before it even released. None of this is surprising. I’m just glad at least some games are just avoiding it instead of lowering the quality. The sooner that thing is obsolete the better it’s holding back progress.
Bless the Series S and the Switch
Makes the devs optimize their shitty games
Ngl between. Not getting MvC collection and Wukong being delayed on X, likely because of the S version, I really don’t like my Xbox atm
Too bad I guess. Being forced to optimize for the Series S helps everyone out ultimately. It’ll run better on the X and ps5, and be better optimized for pc. Can you imagine the state of gaming if the X and Ps5 were the lowest common denominator?
Oh this guy. He’s a notorious console warrior with a known hate for xbox, if that helps anyone.
That game sucked anyways
