You fucking idiot, stop making clickbait videos.

Weirdly enough, I was in an Arkham Asylum story mood, so this video came out at the perfect time.

The stealth in project zomboid is quite interesting, It's hard not to be detected, but the more you do it, the better you're stealth becomes, as your character learns over time, and levels up.

I'm currently playing, "Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag," for the first time (yeah...I know...late to the game...literally). What absolutely KILLS me about the stealth mechanics in the game is the whole waypoint system. No, sir, I don't want to start all over from the beginning when I'm INCHES away from the goal! The stealth game I do enjoy is, "Ghost Recon: Breakpoint." I know its mechanics were categorically condemned, but it's RECON, so...kind of in the name, they're demanding permission to be a "sucky" stealth. And I grant them that. I think I agree that the best way to do stealth is to offer ways to make it more advantageous to stay undetected, but offer counter measures in case you get seen. That seems to follow the general psychology of the health and healing mechanic that leads to progressive success. I hope Ubisoft sees this video and learns from it for Assassin's Creed.

The Far Cry 3 forced stealth mission nearly made me kick my computer into scrap.

I can’t believe this is how I found out about comicstorian. I loved his videos in middle school and he even made me interested in comic books. :,((

Stellar Blade parry’s HIT man gahhhhhhhhhh daaaaaamn I love it

Something people don’t really talk about is that in the Arkham games, we’re seeing a Batman who is at the end of his journey. Yeah, we see it at the very end of Arkham Knight, but it’s right there in the open of Asylum. This has all been going on for a very long time. This is a Batman who has been staring into the abyss for far longer than even he could bear. I see his attitude towards the inmates and workers as just a well earned pragmatism. At the point the first game begins, he’s already seen and done all of this too long. He doesn’t have the same hope of improving the world that he once had…replaced by recognizing that he’s just holding a finger in the dam. He knows at that point that there’s no redeeming Gotham, all he can do is hold all of the evil at bay. That’s one reason that the supernatural elements work so well in Asylum but vanish in later games. Batman CAN’T win this fight. He puts up a more than valiant effort, but it’s still a losing one-and when we first see him in Asylum, he knows it. He’s not facing mental illness that can be treated or cured, he’s staring at genuine evil that will continue to exist long after he’s gone.

Kingdom come deliverance is a great example of a game that has stealth as an optional feature, but still heavly rewards you for it.

I'm so happy we don't have forced stealth, GTA is still the only stealth I want to see, fully optional at all times and a metric fuck ton of options like sniping sneaking pretending to be a bad guy or driving a car into the guy who recognizes you

In a distant future in that so called Capcom/DC/ShonenJump AU I wish to create, I like to make Dante Sparda from The Devil May Cry series part of The Bat-Family, and it involves Arkham being Amadeus Arkham himself through precise writing, and this can be how. Dante, Vergil, and Mary would be childhood friends in Redgrave City England. Dante and Mary would be childhood couple until Mary’s family moved had to moved to Gotham City America for an Asylum her father Amadeus Arkham help create. That Asylum of course is Arkham Asylum. Dante would be left suffering from Emotional Damage having Sparda and Eva comfort him, while amusing Vergil. Eventually the tragedy that lead to the deaths of Sparda and Eva, and Vergil’s desaparece would happen. Leaving Dante as brash yet hopeful child. His perseverance would eventually reward by bumping into Bruce Wayne aka The Batman who was following a lead over the Amadeus Arkham incident. Seeing that Dante himself was that lead, Bruce would adopt Dante take him to Gotham City were Dante would lit up in hopes of seeing Mary again. Bruce would also tell Dante about his “other job” as Batman, and with Alfred help train Dante into how to master his powers as best as they can due to their lack of knowledge on that. But in what they would indeed train him well would be in his Human Side to Superhuman Conditions. Thus becoming the “Proto-Robin.” Dante would be Bruce’s most loyal son to the other sons who were yet to come into their lives. Dante would also be one of the select few Bruce would aloud to GUNS, and LETHAL force for Dante would be Bruce’s successful attempt to later on Jason Todd’s failure into having an Anti-Hero in The Bat-Family. Eventually Dante would come out of age and with Bruce and Alfred’s blessing moved to New York City were MY interpretation of DMC3 will take place. But before MY interpretation of DMC3, Dante would have a few adventures with the TMNT, and the BPRD. My interpretation of DMC3 would be like the TRUE conclusion of the Amadeus Arkham storyline. A men who wanted to help the Mentally Ill, but lost his wife to a “Mad Dog.” A Man who turned to the Mystic Arts in a attempt to bring his wife back from the death only to become obsessed with the POWER of The Sparda Bloodline. Thus leading to MY interpretation of DMC3. After the events of MY interpretation of DMC3. Dante and Mary would rekindle their love, and get married while the City of New York will get renamed to Limbo City. A place were Humans, Demons, Aliens, and Mutants live in “Chaotic Harmony.” Think of Limbo City as Hellsgate Lot from the anime Blood Blockade: Battlefront. I just hope to make it happen someday. 😉

I also wasn’t a fan of the Arkham comic. The art was a mess and story felt off.

I disagree stelth absolutely rocks

My first experience with stealth games was Hitman contracts, and after level 2, I felt like I got robbed out of 20$, because the game is a steaming pile of crap. I had to look up play throughs on it to progress, and you can tell they had to play hundreds of hours to find every hidden entrance, blind spot, and hidden weapon. Not to mention guards that can see you through houses! I HATED stealth ever since, and consider every stealth game a scam.

I hate most rpgs, but Chrono Trigger is a perfect game, imo. It's one that's engaging, and doesn't waste your time.

I wouldn't say stealth is dead, just not as prevalent, my favorite stealth games are those in the Metro franchise, especially Exodus, it's seriously hard to just blast your way through an area and when it's necessary to do so like a boss fight or a shootout you'll have wasted all your ammo. It's around a 60/40 split of stealth and action with progression through customization for your weapons (a lot of customization). Taking it slow, turning out lights, throwing knives while using silencers, finding the flow of the map, and conserving ammo feels great and way more satisfying than storming through it. It's starting to get older, exodus was released 5 years ago, but it's still fun and they just released a new one in VR.

4:47 there's the problem, tic-tok attention spans

Shoutout Intravenous

The level of subconscious confusion hearing the same voice of Arkham also welcoming me aboard the monorails of Disney World.

excellent video, coming back into the game after a 4 year break and this helped catch me up on all the big important stuff

Please do one of these for Arkham City!

Hate to be that guy, but what’s the song that plays at the 39:05 mark?

What’s the song around 55 mins?

burro, mas nao 100 por cento

I had a whole collection of batmans books, including key moments up to Endgame. And to me, Arkahm Asylum always seemed like a nightmare batman was having.

This guy never played Metal Gear Solid V

20:20 To answer your question as to what the devs might have intended with Scarface, I have my own theory. Scarface is specifically located inside of Quincy Sharp's office, which I think is subtle foreshadowing that Quincy is merely a puppet in Strange and Ra's plan for Arkham and Gotham city as a whole.

I wish I could rate this video 5 stars, it is truly perfect and well made!

8:18 Palestine*

Look, i get what youre saying, but devil may cry really isnt a "play while doing/watching something else" game if youre playing above normal/going for S ranks since audio cues are pretty important. I actually have an easier time playing mgs while listening to something else since youve always got a radar or markers showing where enemies are making sound pretty unimportant compared to line of sight

The problem I have with this whole idea of Batman being just as evil by letting Joker live is that if Batman’s responsible for NOT killing Joker then by that logic every single person in the city is just as culpable for Jokers actions. Jokers and Joker alone is responsible for his own actions. Anyone could kill him. Batman doesn’t kill people. He’s barking up the safest tree trying to tempt Bats into committing murder. What makes Jokers life Batman’s personal responsibility? It’s like asking the parent you know will say yes and wondering why you always get what you want.

This was amazing. Thank you

Very well crafted video in both pacing and ideal focus. Really gets me in a Batman deep dive kick.

18:47 Technical we do have it in the comics. In the anniversary version we get storyboard version that show him in the outfit full force.

The stealth in AC mirage is great. It's not amazing, but you can tell that the devs put more time and thought into the games stealth mechanics rather than its combat. Speaking of combat. The combat in AC Mirage sucks so its a given that the stealth is better thought out. Even so I believe that the stealth gameplay in Mirage is a definite improvement upon other recent Assassins Creed games.

r/batmanarkham: a horror retrospective

Yeah I kinda agree that a lot of rpg gameplay feel tedious and disconnected with the story. I do it so I get the reward to watch the cutscene. At this point, why don't I just go to youtube and watch the compilation. But even then, there is a lot of uninteresting moment in the story with only a few interesting story element since they want to make it a long experience. If you ever heard of Jonathan Blow, game developer of The Witness and Braid, he mention that there is very little innovation in game in terms of storytelling. A lot of game pretty much copy how movie does it. It is not innovative enough like the transition from theatre into film making. Film-making innovate camera angle, framing, composition, color grading, etc (Stuff that you can only do with a camera). RPG most of the time just feel like a segmented movie with a gameplay that is tedious in between. Nowadays I just like game with a simple story that don't take it seriously, but have interesting gameplay.

I think horror games is a great home for stealth games. Instead of the hunter lurking in the shadows, you’re the mouse hiding in the shadows from the monster. Sneaking isnt how you get passed enemies it’s how you survive. Alien isolation for example. Failing stealth is failure, but you still feel you have the control and abilities till succeed

btw barbra gordon is the light bc she’s in a wheelchair 😭 her legs would lack a lot of mass

I’ve been forcefully committed to a mental hospital before. Although nothing horrific happened to me while I was there, I am still terrified of being hospitalized again. I was stuck there and no matter how desperately I wanted to go home, I was trapped inside. To this day I still refer to the hospital as Arkham.

stealth will only feel rewarding when it is relegated to side quest where the developers can have enough time to polish the mechanics which would make it more satisfying for the player also if the player goes out their way to tackle those harder than normal side quest are rewarded with proper loot and gear that will sway rng in favor for player. Essentially quest not mandatory for main quest but most rewarding if completed.

Pro tip: If you're going to a psych ward, make sure it's willingly. Involuntary hold is Hell on Earth. Nobody listens, and you're expected to just fall in line as if you deserve to be there. I got yelled at for saying a single swear, and they dragged some girl off and shoved a needle in her ass because she was crying in the hallway. Psych wards are inherently flawed, run by idiots who think they know everything and staff that can throw you around and blame it on you because you're the one locked in the psych ward and not them.

i was going to listen to this while going to sleep but now i just found out about comicstorian passing away. that's fucking tragic and i'm sure he led many many more like me to falling in love with comics. rip legend <3

What's the music you used around 31:40?

Ghost recon wildlands does stealth perfectly imo, you dont have to wait 20 minutes to actually get a kill, you just wait 10 seconds till the guys alone, shoot him and keep moving

Why does the intro to the “conclusion” segment sound like you were about to spit bars

A Tittle to stir interest and debate, an essay to reap the rewards. I see you…

Was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the detail and care put into this video, instant sub! Also love the RDR2 music for the Amadeus segments, fit perfectly
