Greg Miller - Sources Say Monolith's Wonder Woman Game is in Development Trouble, Not Expected Anytime Soon

Great stuff. WB patented the awesome Nemesis system so only they can use it -> no games uses it only Monolith who invented it -> Monolith is barely releasing any games and now this ones in trouble.

Leaked main character art...

Tbf The game would be dead on arrival, the Devs would be caught between making her a bog beast like the thing above to satisfy the Ree crowd or making her attractive to satisfy the core crowd who'd at least think about buying it, but a few mean tweets from some purple haired cunt and they'd resort to the above..

To be fair, they patented the way they accomplished it. Any other developer could do a similar thing using different methodology.
 
Really... who is longing for a Wonder Woman game anyway? Wonder Woman 1984 damaged the brand a lot.
Some comic fans who aren't discouraged by a shit movie. With this logic, nobody would've tried touching Batman again solely because of Batman and Robin.

The Tumblr/Twitter Feminazis are longing for it

Which already tells me that it was gonna to get cancelled anyways
No? Feminists and other assorted tumblrites have more interest in the latest TLOU, Life is Strange, or whatever Anthony Burch is next writing.

Its Wonder Woman with nemesis system and Arkham combat.

People will eat it up if its any decent. Hell an attractive female protagonist would do the trick and we're talking about WW here.
 
looking at the title I thought we talking about Monolith Soft.

then finding out it's WB's Monolith..

Most games are in development hell. But 7 years is a long time to not make anything. Last time i saw this was Suicide Squad and Anthem and they didnt turn out too well.
 
sucha weird game that nobody asked for. I'm a fan of the devs so I'll probably give it a look no matter what, but damn WB stinks.
 
Good developer, interesting character to work with and her abilities would fit like a glove in a game with Shadow of Mordor's style and mechanics.
It's an open goal and it should sell millions. But in current year? I have doubts.
 
Once respected studio gets stuck making some shitty DC comics licensed game nobody wants for the better part of a decade. Where have I heard this before?

True, but that doesn't make it less of regressive dick move for the artform of games. It's like if Valve patented the gravity gun concept from Half-life. Now nobody can use a similar physics type gun, unless you pay up. Or as a actual case; how Sega patented minigames in loadscreens.

It's regressive as many at GDC pointed out at the time. Only Ubisoft tried their own version of the Nemesis system but they can't borrow design tropes, so their cobbled together version in AC is less fleshed out as a result. It's like unnecessarily reinventing the wheel while there is a proper blueprint right there that can be built upon.

Can't wait to see how they implement their cool Nemesis system in this slop. They should've just kept expanding on their LOTR games. Just picked up the Shadow Of Mordor/War bundle since I was in the mood for LOTR and seeing how Rings of Power sucks and the LOTR franchise is shit in gaming terms nowadays, I'm happy to revisit those.

Good.
No one asked
Exactly my thoughts. I don't like superhero games personally but seriously, who wanted this.
 
No surprises here.

Maybe there was some point where I might have been even a little excited for the potential of a Wonder Woman game, but with WB involved, I'm not just keeping my expectations in check, I'm placing my expectations somewhere else entirely.

They're probably trying to de-GaaS'ify it after Suicide Squad lol

One can only hope. But this is WB we're talking about. They doubled down on live service games by releasing a statement in March (after Suicide Squad reviewed poorly and bombed) that they planned on increasing focus on live service games.

It's more likely they're in dev hell because WB is trying to force them into making it a coop multiplayer GaaS shitshow.
 
There's still time to delete this Monolith. Imagine if Rocksteady slid their smoldering ball of filth to the recycling bin 5 years ago. How many jobs are saved, families fed, college educations paid for? It's not too late. Delete it.

June is optimism month lol
 
1. wonder women is not popular enough for an individual game
2. wonder women is not going to be given the same "treatment" like stella blade, it will be a woke game, confirmed.


game is DOA, regardless of development issue or not.
