"I could feel myself coming apart at the seams": Suicide Squad leads on almost leaving the games industry after its failure
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League co-director Axel Rydby and associate design director Johnny Armstrong considered leaving the games industry due to the game's troubled development and public failure. They discussed the shift from Rocksteady's traditional single-player games to a live-service model, the pressure from Warner Bros. executives, and the eventual decision to move on. Both developers have since started a new studio and are crowdfunding their upcoming game, Secret of Circadia.
