On May 9, during an earnings call, Warner Bros. revealed that it was taking a $200 million
loss on Suicide
Squad — making it one of the gaming
world's worst blunders.
One of the biggest issues, said people familiar, was that the battles, levels and bosses in a live-service game needed to be designed so players could tackle them over and over again, while Rocksteady was accustomed to telling stories that were only experienced once. Hampered by bloated code, the team struggled to find ways to make these activities feel less tedious
and repetitive.
Many of the studio's employees are now helping to develop a new “director's cut” version of Hogwarts
Legacy. At the same time, according to people familiar, the studio leaders are looking
to pitch
a new single-player game, which would
return
Rocksteady to its roots.

As much as I hate that I love it, all I want injected into my brain at all times is Suicide Squad, Captain Marvel, and Rings of Power sneed.
I could live of that shit for 30 years

Season two Rings of Power is coming in August, and the sneed harvest is looking to be bountiful and lush.
Spoilers alert, but their big idea of disguising Sauron so he can be Annatar (after they spend the entire first season telling us they didn't need or want Annatar) is to put the Halbrand actor into a wig and pointy ears. "The Elves will never recognise me like this!" and depending on whether they're going to have Annatar turning up after Halbrand has been chased out, or before, it works both ways: the Elves are indeed too stupid to realise "hey, this is the same guy!"
