Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League were two incredible failures for WB Games, and players are not very happy about this. As always with the internet, they are looking for someone to take the blame for these failures. Enter Sweet Baby Inc., a company that offers consulting in narrative for games.
This company has been working on a huge number of titles in the last couple of years. Some X users are saying that this company is to blame for the failures that Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League meant for WB Games.
What went wrong with Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League? Sweet Baby Inc. has part of the fault?
The current state of the world is on the brink of becoming dystopian. People on the internet are more sensible than ever, and they will discuss literally anything. This includes video games. Gamers are always passionate about games or franchises that they love.
But in recent weeks, a new kind of misguided hatred towards a specific company has been at the center of attention. Sweet Baby Inc. is involved in many recent projects, and gamers notice this and begin the speculation and blame distribution.
Thanks to a new viral post on X, user Drake JoJo compares all the Batman Arkham series writers’ staff with the Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. According to the information that he shared, the latest two games have more than double the number of writers as the Batman Arkham Saga.

Gotham Knights has 14 writers compared to the 7 writers that were involved in Batman Arkham Knight; two of the GK writers were from Sweet Baby Inc. The same goes with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which allegedly has 26 writers, half of whom belong to Sweet Baby Inc.
Are these things related to the flop that was Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League? Spoiler Alert: No, they don’t
It is not very hard to understand why both Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League were not very good games, and there is nothing to do with Sweet Baby Inc. or writing in general.
They are both bland games with no soul or real love for the characters put into their design; the mechanics and gameplay are repetitive and not very curated compared to the Arkham Saga or other current games.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is the worst because of the live-service aspect that damages the game in general. So the writing has nothing to do with the failure of these titles.
Tell us what you think about these games. Do you think they have some redeeming qualities?
