Netizens even came in unison when complaining about the cluttered UI in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League might match the controversy of the movies
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has faced the terrible fate of receiving a mixed reception from fans similar to the movie series. While many regard the movie to be outstanding, the counter-half of the fanbase shares views of it being a no-brain only-action movie. Likewise, the upcoming game is facing a similar criticism, though it is more on the negative side to be precise.
Genuinely thought this was a mobile game with all the stuff on the screen
(Looks like one of those mobile games that has multiple different buttons on the screen)

Critics and fans combined have shared overall negative views on the upcoming Suicide Squad game which involves bad open-world, boring combat, and more. The lackluster nature of the AAA live-service even got harsh criticism to the point it got compared to mobile games, in terms of graphics and cluttered screen UI. Furthermore, fans even share a collective rage towards the studio for implementing micro-transactions and battle passes in the AAA story genre.
However, many games in the industry do get released while not being in their top form. For instance, Cyberpunk 2077 faced similar criticism after its initial release, only to be titled one of the best open-world RPG titles in 2023. With the upcoming game from Rocksteady being only less than a month away, it is possible to fix a few small issues before release.
