Part 9/10:
Genuine Engagement Over Grief-Inducing Grind: Gameplay must prioritize quality and fun over superficial incentive systems.
Authentic Representation: Cultural and narrative choices should be handled with sensitivity and respect for the original lore.
Transparency and Accountability: Corporate reactions, especially when criticized, should aim for openness rather than defensiveness or censorship.
As Warner Brothers’ Suicide Squad experiment demonstrates, neglecting these principles can lead to significant backlash, financial losses, and long-term damage to a company's reputation. The gaming community’s disapproval of this title signals the importance of aligning development with fan expectations and industry standards.
