why was it necessary to make deadshot black anyways??

Because they only set it in the Arkhamverse for brand recognition, not out of any love for the lore.

Although it's funny the guy from city is considered the fake when he makes far more impressive shots than anyone in suicide squad. He killed a man from across the city with like 4 ricochets!

the more disgusting part is when they try to make the whole imposter thing a lore but it just comes off as a badly forced gaslights i used to do with my mom when i get caught with anything

Nah it's the same one, he just got re-vitiligo, it's the opposite of what Michael Jackson got.

Because they cast Will Smith in that SS movie a few years back as Dead Shot because of star power BS or whatever so now Deadshot will prolly be black and kinda have Will Smith's mannerisms for all video games and movies till the end of time cause that is how money works.

The funny thing is that the imposter ♥♥♥♥ could have been done decently if the playable Deadshot in SS was the imposter. Maybe one of Brainiac's previous invasions had his Universe's Suicide Squad fight him and fail, he got sent to a different universe cause of whatever reason but ended up in the wrong time period with foggy memory.

Then you could actually have him being a different deadshot actually play into the story, perhaps in the latter half you need to do some missions to get some science ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ so Deadshot can regain his full memories which lets him remember Braniacs Weakness or something like that.

It's not perfect but at the very least it makes a very obviously money motivated change actually interesting and play into the main plot.

Its because of the developers wanting be inclusive it still doesnt make sense that they changed it by saying “the white deadshot is an impostor”. Also in the Batman: Assault on Arkham film king shark was killed which it doesnt make sense for king shark to be in the suicide squad game. The film was also canon to the arkham universe.

All of the Arkham developers plus the founders of the studio left Rocksteady abruptly over 2 years ago. They saw what was coming and didn't want any part of it. Of course that game has nothing to do with the Arkham universe, they just said it did because they wanted cash.

Suicide Squad is legitimately one of the worst games I've seen in a long time. Really happy to hear it flopped. It flopped so bad that WB has ALREADY declared it a flop.
