Deadshot: World renowned hitman Harley: a psyologically twisted maniac King Shark: son of a shark god and a shark Boomerang: Australian I really like how boomerang's schtick is he's just unapologetically Aussie.
Look, the story might be absolute garbage, but I actually thought the character interactions were pretty funny at least half the time. Most of that was thanks to Captain Boomerang (and king shark).
Boomerang being called dumb for believing in ghosts is one of the weirdest things to say when you're walking with a giant shark with human legs and arms, hunting down aliens and whatnots
Unpopular opinion: While I won't comment on other elements of this game, the humor in the game was actually pretty good. People saying it wasn't funny at all just force themselves to hate the game, or simply try and pretend it's awful just because they got too attached to the Arkhamverse canon and/or comic accuracy..
Idk how to explain it properly but it was bad because it was good, and it was good because it was bad. It's EXACTLY how I expected the characters to react and comment on the DC world. But that's just it, they're so disrespectful and annoying that I can't help but hate the game for it. When that is exactly how they SHOULD act, it would be worst if they were all nice and polite and "Oh boy guys! I love Superman and we should help", you know what I mean? I think the best way to put it is: "Just because something makes sense and is fitting, doesn't mean I HAVE to like it for it."
@@TheInvisibleManz Fair enough I guess. I'm glad they didn't restrain themselves from using profanity here and there while cracking jokes, but also glad they didn't overdo it with bad mouthing because that would just make it seem like they were using excessive adult language as a substitute for unimaginative dialogue and poor humor
The game may be ass but I do genuinely really like the squad members. Boomerang is exactly what I want out of him down to being an utter loser, Harley is cute, Deadshots pretty neat, and King Shark is always fun. Just solid portrayals
Tell me about it. I already had a bit of thing for Austin dudes but then blueyjust had to become the most popular children's show in recent memory didn't it. And now this dummy? I'm so glad that the technology has finally gotten to a point where they can accurately represent the grease and the grime of men's hair and facial hair. Used it would be just a mound of hair texture.
3:16 That almost made me want to buy it... almost... If they make a side story with Poka-Dot man, Killer Croc, Livewire, and Cheetah I'll consider getting it.
He does actually. His melee next to King Shark’s is one of the best cause it damages enemies from a distance and later in the game you can continuously boost up your melee as much as possible so you you don’t have to use guns as often. He also uses his boomerangs for his special attacks and traversal.
@@Megaproductions302i actually like his shotgun more than I thought I would. Paired with the sniper rifle, he really is THE Jack of all trades of the game, and his traversal is the most engaging for me because it feels quick (unlike Harley) yet involved (unlike Deadshot)
I absolutely loved how much of a villainous scumbag boomerang was in this game. Usually in stories like this they tone down their villainous nature to make them more "likeable". With boomerang he gets so insufferable even the other squad mates sock him in the face.
Its 7.5 at best and a 5 at the worst. I enjoyed it a ton and look forward to the new content that's dropping. If you haven't even tried playing it, maybe stfu and let other people enjoy stuff.
I genuinely liked all the character writing in this game a lot. Very likable very fleshed out characters and dynamics with a good grip on what’s compelling about them.
You wanna know what would've worked better? If Brainiac made a bunch of Justice League *clones* that you had to kill while the real Justice League was out of commision. It wouldn't have been perfect, but it would've been "leagues" better than what we got here.
Daniel Lapaine is without a doubt the de facto Captain Boomerang from here-on out. I hope we get to see him return as the Captain in an actually good game someday.
I’d say that Captain Boomerang and King Shark were the best parts of this whole game. They basically carried it by making me want to see them more. That’s really the only reason to keep playing the game. It’s like the Mario or Zelda CDI games where you’re there for the goofy and poorly animated cutscenes only. Boomerang is a perfect blend between someone you hate or are annoyed by and someone who you can laugh at and love for his stupidity and assholery. King Shark is… well he’s King Shark. Do I really need to say anything else? I just wish the devs AT LEAST made a decent/average game for them to be in.
You don't dude. I fw the game heavy. It's just another Last Of Us 2 situation, the story gets leaked, everyone finds out their favorite character is killed off (99% sure it's a fake out in Suicide Squad), they refuse to touch the game because "It's garbage" and then continue to review bomb or trash talk it on every site they use.
@@brandonburrow4441 don't compare this game to TLOU2. At least TLOU wasn't a live-service garbage, even though some people thought the story was questionable.
I used to read Suicide Squad comics in the 90's, and while I admit I've lost track of later installments, I feel they did good with both Captain Boomerang and Amanda Waller's personalities. It's fun seeing Boomerang being the unrepentant jackass of the group, because he kinda was back then as well, though a little less coarse.
Of course i played the batman series timeless classic series and gotham knights fun af, i was so mf excited about suicide squad im like awe shhi rocksteady bou yo deliver but fast forward nahh it is what it is tho, only good thing bou this is the graphics tho
It's funny as fuck. They try and paint boomerang as an unlikable ass for things like throwing flash to Batman or putting a bomb in Ivy's neck yet with context you see how clutch those executive decisions were
@@akiraeatsguitarpicks491 yeah ngl that fell in with the rest of the fluff I glossed over watching the cutscenes I'm only giving the game credit for the two things it did even a little right. That being boomer and shark
Damn, captain boomerang and king shark's backs must hurt from carrying this game.
They were the best part of this game.
Literally the only ones I like in this shit
Kind of shocks me that Boomerang can be both the most competent and least competent member of the team at the same time.
To be fair this is most faithful version of captain boomerang
I first read it at King of Shocks, so I was thinking you were using his Australianism to refer to King Shark.
Givin ya the brain spasms!?
Captain has more media representation than most b list justice leaguers at this point
Booster Gold and Plastic Man have been in a bunch of animated shows. They're probably lower than B list.
Deadshot: World renowned hitman
Harley: a psyologically twisted maniac
King Shark: son of a shark god and a shark
Boomerang: Australian
I really like how boomerang's schtick is he's just unapologetically Aussie.

The story isn’t even trash- people are just salty over the deaths of the League which are clearly fakeouts.
@ManOfX305 Yea I'm starting to think we might be a little harsh ( by a little I mean alot) I think we just need to be patient
“HERESY! DESTROAH IAT!” -Zod
@@gianncmedina7805 yeah got to look at it like a TV series, base story is like Episode 1.
Its trash mate @@ManOfX305
Captain Boomerang is just what happens when you give a bogan time, money and explosive ordnance
Boomerang being called dumb for believing in ghosts is one of the weirdest things to say
when you're walking with a giant shark with human legs and arms, hunting down aliens and whatnots
There's a DC villain called Gentleman Ghost. He's literally a ghost.
3:21 "Yeah! Go Superman!
"Ah fuck, it's Superman"
That one line is better than the entire story
The six year old kid in the hospital cancer ward
Same energy as
“My friends, we have come to save you!”
“Hooray! It’s the Catholic Church!”
“From yourselves!”
“Oh no, it’s the Catholic Church”
Gotta say, this is the best boomerang has ever been lmao
To be fair this most faithful version of captain boomerang
You forgot to include captain boomerang threw a boomerang at superman and blame king shark
He may be dumb…but he’s not wrong about the ghosts, they are very real in the DCU
The Specter being real: 💀
@@ellbent him, the phantom stranger, deadman, gentlemen cradic, wasn’t raven a ghost for a bit? Am I missing anyone?
@@redrasegarden I know they exist, Specky is like the scariest of them lol
@@ellbent I was thinking of all the ghosts in general. Feel like I’m missing some. But yes, specter can fuck our shit up.
Then is kinda faithful to comic in way.

Because you are a redditor.
Thank you. Someone said it.
We have got a redditor here.

boomerang is the best part of the story and the gameplay. If this had just been a captain boomerang game it probably would've been better
He was honestly the only reason I was going to buy the game.
boomerang is so fucking funny in this game he carries the humor along with flash
Anytime Boomerang speaks, all I can hear is Bandit Heeler
I mean, him wondering if the hamster is Gizmo might seem dumb, but this IS the DC Universe we are talking about.
Oddly captain boomerang like kinda cute
I know right! Like why do I like this man he looks like a hobo but at the same time damn that hobo fine
@@Lynn4_20 😂😂I guess or thing is fine dirty hobo’s.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one that finds him oddly attractive. 🤣
@@Lynn4_20some men just look better when they’ve been dragged through the mud.

Boomer and Shark carry the games humor
What years of fighting the flash and lead paint consumption does to a person:
Don't forget the alcoholism. He drank so much in the comics Captain Cold kicked him out of the Rogues.
Just when you think life is going well you fall for a blondie like him 😂
Tell me about it.

Hey they prolly might. If they bring in Deathstroke Bloodsport, Peacemaker. They could turn around opinions. I say lets be patient and see :)
One of the update teasers is apparently a flooded city so Waylane Jones (The Croc) might not be too far behind! Or Black Manta!
Or Joker on a jetski!
"Yeah, go Superman!
Oh fuck, it's Superman!"

Ironically, this is probably my favorite version of Captain Boomerang
Be nice if Captain Boomerang fought with, ya know, Boomerangs. That's his whole gimmick
He does actually.

At least he uses it more than his movie counterpart

Bro this game is amazing 10/10 if you don't like Suicide Squad then stfu and get lost.
@@taelin-rh3wi oooo you’re hard
Captain Boomerange probably could have been one of the most noble and competent self made heros if he had a better childhood.
Others: Ghosts aren’t real.
Gentleman Ghost has entered the chat.
I genuinely liked all the character writing in this game a lot. Very likable very fleshed out characters and dynamics with a good grip on what’s compelling about them.
boomerang causally admitting he eats Lead paint when he was young🤣
I’m all for a suicide squad game, but this is not the story for it.

Daniel Lapaine is without a doubt the de facto Captain Boomerang from here-on out. I hope we get to see him return as the Captain in an actually good game someday.
Daniel LaPaine was delightful in "The 10th Kingdom." Finding out he was Captain Boomerang from this comment almost killed me. 🤣🤣🤣
He really is the comic relief of the game.
0:36 dang how do you get that traversal look?
smart man
He's clearly just taking the piss most of the time
Oh, Shark, you should've have done that! That's Superman! He's gonna kick your ass!!
Honestly, story was okay, last two boss fights were terrible, characters were great. Boomerang is the best, glad they made this game just for him.
I’d say that Captain Boomerang and King Shark were the best parts of this whole game. They basically carried it by making me want to see them more. That’s really the only reason to keep playing the game. It’s like the Mario or Zelda CDI games where you’re there for the goofy and poorly animated cutscenes only.
Boomerang is a perfect blend between someone you hate or are annoyed by and someone who you can laugh at and love for his stupidity and assholery.
King Shark is…
well he’s King Shark. Do I really need to say anything else?

Captain Boomerang is the only funny part of KTJL
I agree to an extent. King shark helped him carry the game so let's give Sharkey his due credit
Harley pulled her weight too I've laughed at her lines a few times.@@screenname6829
3:16 How does it woooork 🙄 Hahaha I luv it.
Proof he’s the funniest character in the game
Jokers part of the story will be very interesting to.
Love that boomer 😂
Captain Boomerang is the only good part of the game.
The Game May Have Sucked,But I Think We Can All Agree He Was The Best Character In The Game.
Captain Boomerang may have a room temperature IQ, but it's still higher than that of anyone who actually made this game.
Is it just me that Captain Boomerang on this game lowkey kinda look like Carmie from The Bear tv show?
Why does it sound like Bluey's dad?
I also think he sounds like that and junkrat sometimes, maybe all Australians just sound the same
I can fix him
Whose corpse did he try to piss on again?
Holy shit, I'm in the game. Bad game, but I've seen now a character that's dumb as I am. Neat
