The amount of people that are absolutely dogging on the game despite knowing nothing about it or the current state of rocksteady just because it’s a VR game is ludicrous to me
I think it's envy. A huge amount of fans of the Arkham games don't really have VR, let alone the new Meta Quest 3. I should know, I was one of them until a few months ago. Just need more people like myself to adopt into VR and they'll change their tune.
@@Drexxyl shame because VR is an incredible medium. I really hope this does for VR what it has the potential to do because among the other games coming out in november and December 2024 will undoubtedly be a great year for VR. I really want this game to succeed with a possibility of a sequel on VR it’s time to try new things
The problem isnt the fact that is VR, is that is exclusive to just a vr headset. As both owner of a VR headset and Arkham fan, it really sucks to not being able to play this game cause I dont have that specific headset to play, especially when the market of VR is still not that big.
They are trying to push the VR market with the most easily accessible avenue. It very well could have came out that it would be a pcvr only game and then you'd have leagues of people complaining about not having a standalone port. The point of any exclusive is to draw eyes and hopefully consumers. How many people do you think will buy Arkham and a q3 and then decide to hook it up to their PC they only play call of duty on? That's going to push the medium on all fronts.
complaining that this game is VR exclusive is really DUMB. the VR developers themselves as fans of the series reached out to rocksteady and pitched their idea for the VR game. rocksteady gave them the go ahead to Develop the VR GAME. without them.... their would BE NO GAME! My god people maybe really need to look into things before they start their dumb hate mongering garbage!
I think it's mostly blind envy, as I kinda felt the same way before I got into VR. I was just pissed it wasn't coming to consoles but after experience VR for the first time, and seeing the gameplay trailer, the game looks incredible. I just wish more people like myself give VR a chance even if it's this late into the game.
Yeah it seems like that recent gameplay trailer was way better received, at least online. At Gamescom it was essentially crickets after the reveal, seemed like no one in the audience cared cuz it was VR.
@@Drexxyl Not necessarily but u won’t know why Loki is all over the place. First one is all about Loki when he is trapped, 2nd is when Loki Free, the story always circled around him. The introduction scene in the second game gives you an overview of what happened in the first game. For people who didn't play the first one.
I just hope it’s successful enough for WB to greenlight a new full fledged Arkham game, been playing around free roaming in Knight again recently and it’s still breathtaking. A new game with all the modern bells and whistles would be absolutely insane
Well with the abysmal failure of Suicide Squad and the potential success of Arkham Shadows they may greenlight more Arkham stuff. Only problem, is Rocksteady still the same company that can make those great games or does another studio have to pick up the mantle?
I think people need to separate game from platform. I think the game looks cool, but I feel being so dependent on such a specific platform and hardware has its fair share of issues too, at least on the side of game preservation. I remember when people were dubious of the handhelds after a few generations and some criticized the graphics, but some gems actually came from those and people just didn't care (I mean, the criticism was fair, these platforms had exclusive games). Handhelds are now something very different and I think it's an improvement on all fronts because they're saying goodbye to platform exclusivity. With time, I believe VR will do same. We'll also see how they deal with backwards compatibility and all the other stuff that consoles suffer from nowadays. I hear VR is stepping into PC territory a little, so who knows...
ive wanted a vr batman game for years with combat exploration and actual predator batman arkham vr was just a walking simulator but glorified it just felt like a tech demo
I bought Meta Quest 3 for this game, I discovered VR experience, and it's amazing. Camouflaj is such a passionate team and very respectful of the Arkhamverse lore, Shadow will be a true Arkham game. 😊
Would an Arkham game have been made without this title? No Did DC themselves push for this? No Did Meta push for this game and were willing to fund this just to push VR through an iconic IP/game franchise? Yes. Either buy it or don't, but this game would have never been made without Meta.
Hope the game does some numbers to get vr some mainstream hype, iv been 90% vr exclusive since psvr1 came out and i get y it can be a hard sell for some, that havent invested, but the biggest best games show how amazing the tech is and if there was more adopters to the medium more big games or at minimum hybrid games would be coming out. Cant wait for this personally and hope it makes some kinda impact for VR in general.
I just wish it was also coming to PCVR with enhanced visuals, and/or PSVR2. It would also sell more, making it more viable from a business perspective. (Ubisoft for example said they wont do vr again for the foreseeable after AC VR didnt sell well, after it was built just for quest). Though hopefully quest 3 pulls it off, ill be playing it for sure!
I'm pissed ACN didn't sell one, but I'm one of the problems as I didn't have the Quest 3 at the time either. I hope it picks up and more people buy it as I absolutely loved what they did by exploring different protagonist. I'd love a sequel with like Bayek, and Edward and Arno or even Altair and Eivor, maybe even a new character.
I was about to comment, "a decade since an arkham game? are you forgetting Arkham Knight exists..." Then I realised its been 9 YEARS!!!! Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Yep a very long 9 years since a proper Arkham game. Gotham Knights was a decent coop game and certainly better than Suicide Squad, but we've been starving for a proper Arkham for TOO LONG!
It was also really bad, and almost no one played it. Edit: thought you were talking about Arkham knights, which is only 2 years old. And it was terrible.
Honestly it was more big time franchises that I was already a fan of that swayed me. AC Nexus, the upcoming Metro and Arkham game and so on, I decided to finally just bite the bullet and give it a try. And I can safely say that once I was a few hours into AC Nexus I knew I had to try more games ASAP. Within these 2 months I've already played a lot of the big time games and have been slowly working my way through so many others. My VR tab in my browser is filled with probably 50+ games between PCVR, Quest, and PSVR2 that I have to eventually buy. These are the games I've played so far and the list just keeps growing. Lost Echo AC Nexus Horizon: Call of the Mountain Iron Man VR Hubris Vampire The Masquerade Justice RE4 Remake RE4 OG RE Village Half-Life: Alyx Retropolis The list just keeps growing for me. I've even been able to hit that sweet spot way more consistently on PSVR2 now, though Horizon still looks kinda blurry but I think it's cuz of reprojection? Or at least that's what I'm told. All in all, most of my gaming is now done on VR, it's been really damn fun. I can see where people might hate franchises like Arkham being exclusive to VR, hell I was one of them, until I got my hands on these headsets and I can clearly see the vision now.
I have been loving seeing the new flux of VR players and owners and especially content creators. You didn't "miss out" by any means because as someone who has been in the VR space since 2017, there has never been a better time to get invested in it than now. There are some awesome games from the past that you can always still enjoy but the standalone market and the indie PCVR scenes are both looking amazing in 2024. The Quest 3 is totally worth it as both an entry level consumer and enthusiast. The visuals (displays and lenses) are some of the best especially for the price. There is a new $300 model called the Quest 3S that is launching very soon, to be officially revealed at Meta Connect next week. I will probably still recommend the Quest 3 as it will have better visuals still at a slightly higher price point. But now there will be something for everyone. Maybe you should tune into the event next week and see if you can officially be sold on buying a VR headset.
Welcome to the community, there is a lot of great gams on stand alone and PCVR like half-life Alyx , walking dead saint & sinners, even retribution after the updates, racing sims on PCVR like Automobilista2 in VR with a set of pedals and a FFB wheel will change how you see gaming, There’s even titles that slipped under the radar like Ginotype on Quest which was great. There’s a lot of great games. Just avoid the garbage
@@boomdaddymaxwell I haven’t had any problems with controls on saints and sinners, it may be the physic based controls throwing you off. Actually the Quest 3 update did a lot for that game visually.
The game it self will be great. the only problem For people like me who LOVE the arkham Series SImply Can't play it due to no vr hardware or Wrong Vr hardware.. Like for me i have a psvr2 and a Quest 2. I can't even play a game i Wish i could due to Me not having the right thing. and the easyest way to fix that is to have vr games and just games in general Not Be exclusive. If batman arkham shadow comes out it should be on all platforms that have vr. Psvr2,pc, etc.
From what has been shown,it looks surprisingly great on Quest 3.I think it will do exactly what Meta wants it to do,lead Quest 2 owners to upgrading to the 3 or 3s and bring in newbies too
@@garrettferrell6821 Which also leaves out PCVR, which is the most important VR market. Idk why they don't put their exclusives on the Oculus store anymore tbh, considering they just updated it recently
It makes sense here because it's a Meta first party studio. They are funding it. At the same time, Ubisoft released AC Nexus as a Meta exclusive and then complained about the sales, which is dumb.
But the audience would be much smaller, sadly. Meta headsets make up the majority of all VR headsets. Quest 3 on its own takes up almost 20 percent of all headsets used in Steam VR. Imagine all the people who just use it as a standalone console. That said, the quest 2 is still the marketshare king.
try contractors showdwdown as its cod warzone vr try vail for best vr gunplay and try contractors for mods including cod zombies maps and battlefront and warhammer
“Lone echo” not “Lost echo”. Great games I’m half way done part 2 the first one was amazing to say the least. Definitely triple A movie quality scenarios play out it’s deep too the relationship between you and the Doctor is great 👍.
I like that way you list many of the great games. You are totally right - they are great. Now get ready for walking mostly in the desert for years to come, with mostly shovelware with n64 graphics.
I just listed the ones I've played so far, I have a tab split between Meta, PSVR2 and PCVR games I plan on slowly playing over the years. Now not all of them will be of the highest quality but 3 or 4 huge titles a year mixed in-between a lot of AA type games doesn't sound too bad.
There's a huge amount of high quality VR games to play. More than a regular person has enough time to get through in years, imo. Most people just don't bother to look.
I don't think anyone is criticizing the games quality, the only real reason for the hatred is its exclusivity like you said. Which I think is justified, the Quest 3 isn't like a console, they don't have a direct competitor in their price range, they have a flat-out monopoly, so its easy to hate the company who is already on top continuing to make anti-consumer decisions that lock fans off of famous franchises. Which is the key difference between Meta and someone like Nintendo. Meta has exclusives that are based on major franchises they use to sell systems and really only one original game in Asgard's wrath 2, which I do not have any problem with. Someone like Nintendo, sure it's annoying as a PC user to be locked to weaker hardware, but Nintendo created most of its exclusive franchises, and they were historically exclusive to their systems. Games like Arkham, Resident Evil, and Assassin's Creed have never been exclusive to any one system, so this happening for the first time on the headset with the monopoly? It's easy to hate. I'm sure Arkham shadow will be of high quality, and great fun for the people who play it. It's just Meta's constant anti-consumer practices that make it hated. Nice video though, Glad you were willing to share your opinion.
I don't think the game looks bad, it actually looks amazing. The problem is not everyone can afford an 1000 dollar headset. I will probably never have the opportunity to play the game for the next 10 years more than likely and even that's a little for me.
I don't know who's telling you 1000, the Meta Quest 3 is like $499. Still as expensive as a PS5 or Series X and there's not many exclusives yet which maybe why people are waiting.
I mean how many people paid $400+ for an xbox one when halo 4 came out? Ps5 to play god of war? Honestly people cant even complain about price of entry because meta has made it and is going to continue to make it so much easier to get into. Ive asked people who just tell me they arent interested in vr why and they always quote the price. Why would i pay that much to play a videogame when its cheaper or on par with modern consoles today. The days of tech demos are slowly but surely getting behind us. I dint feel like theres any reason to not give it a shot other than stubborness.
Yeah Meta Quest 3 is about $499, I just think people are waiting for more banger exclusives. AC Nexus was incredible and Arkham Shadows looks just as good if not better. It's only been out a year and there's a ton of great exclusive games on it that I'm just getting into now.
@@Drexxyl and the 3s is to start releasing at $299. They are doing that along side of Arkham shadow to even further the amount of people that can play it.
@@thatjackass1403 the 3s is coming out soon for $299. What games or experiences have you tried on it? Because if you aren't broadening your horizons and you only see the shovelware or the old tech demos then yeah I fully understand. I play standalone only. But I also use it to watch videos, play flat screen apps like RuneScape or call of duty mobile on a 70 inch screen. Like there are so many more things than just tech demos now. Assassin's creed Best was the first game I've played and beat in a long time because it was so interactive and immersive. Just don't get that with flat screen.
@@thebulldozer9198 no it shouldn’t,it was funded by Meta and is being developed by Camouflaj,which happens to be a first party studio owned by Meta.just like Sony uses exclusive content to sale PlayStation consoles,Meta is doing the same to sale the Quest 3 With that being said,I definitely understand the frustration.it’s not like PSVR2 owners don’t have a lot to look forward to as well though.they just announced the Hitman trilogy and tomorrow will be the official announcement of Starship Troopers VR too.those are too huge exclusives for PSVR2
@@Dogboy73 Meta funded and are developing the game though.this isn’t a Rocksteady project like the other Batman Arkham games.I believe there is a misconception and people think Rocksteady abandoned PS5,Xbox Series X/S and PC in order to make a Quest 3 exclusive.that would be dumb and they would never do this,they would want to have their games accessible to as many gamers as possible.Meta is just trying to sale as many headsets as possible
@@Drexxyl One of the best VR games, period. Also, look into Vertigo 1 and 2. Vertigo 2, especially, is a better Half Life game than Half Life Alyx gameplaywise.
This game wouldn't be an issue and so controversial if Wb actually made a stream of good dc games.Dc fans out here starving for content meanwhile marvel fans eating.
Great vid unfortunately VR is something you need to try, until they do it just looks like a bad graphics FPS Arkham game and they will not understand it.
I'd say it looks about on par with the 360/PS3 Arkham games. I agree on having to try it though as I had the same thoughts about VR until actually putting on the headset and actually playing some games.
@@Drexxyl indeed though if you go back to these ps3/360 games you will notice that while still good graphics close up textures would not be good enough for an FPS view so this game has far more detailed textures.
@@RedcoatTrooper I feel like that's any FPS game though, zoom in too close on textures and you're bound to see the imperfections. For an entirely wireless headset, I think Shadows is damn impressive.
But yeah, it’s the Sony ponies that are making all the complaining and bitching in the comment section that this game isn’t coming to their shitty console
The only ones butt hurt about this is Sony PlayStation fan boys because they expect all of the Batman games and all DC games to be on. PlayStation only forget you fanboy all Meta here.
Yeah it's a double exclusive whammy. Meta is footing the bill for it though so it wouldn't even exist without them. Who knows maybe they'll port it within a year to pcvr.
I take it you're a Suicide Squad fan? I mean despite the hate games like The Avengers got, it was still decent for what it was and the characters played as one would expect. In SS pretty much all the characters played the same and no one really stood out, and the story was hot caca.
It's an entirely different map compared to City though? While I prefer Cities map by a country mile there are many good things about Origins, like it's story and as you mentioned the boss fights.

Games like Arkham, Resident Evil, and Assassin's Creed have never been exclusive to any one system, so this happening for the first time on the headset with the monopoly? It's easy to hate.
I'm sure Arkham shadow will be of high quality, and great fun for the people who play it. It's just Meta's constant anti-consumer practices that make it hated.
Nice video though, Glad you were willing to share your opinion.
Maybe the Quest3S being $299 might bring more adopters over to try some of these games.
From what I've heard the game is incredible
I don't think the game looks bad, it actually looks amazing. The problem is not everyone can afford an 1000 dollar headset. I will probably never have the opportunity to play the game for the next 10 years more than likely and even that's a little for me.
Use Google real quick. A quest is not $1000
I don't know who's telling you 1000, the Meta Quest 3 is like $499. Still as expensive as a PS5 or Series X and there's not many exclusives yet which maybe why people are waiting.
You can buy a Quest 3S for 299.-, and it will come bundled with Arkham Shadow.
I mean how many people paid $400+ for an xbox one when halo 4 came out? Ps5 to play god of war? Honestly people cant even complain about price of entry because meta has made it and is going to continue to make it so much easier to get into. Ive asked people who just tell me they arent interested in vr why and they always quote the price. Why would i pay that much to play a videogame when its cheaper or on par with modern consoles today. The days of tech demos are slowly but surely getting behind us. I dint feel like theres any reason to not give it a shot other than stubborness.
Yeah Meta Quest 3 is about $499, I just think people are waiting for more banger exclusives. AC Nexus was incredible and Arkham Shadows looks just as good if not better. It's only been out a year and there's a ton of great exclusive games on it that I'm just getting into now.
@@Drexxyl and the 3s is to start releasing at $299. They are doing that along side of Arkham shadow to even further the amount of people that can play it.
@@codyholbrooks4875 Yeah a black Meta Quest 3s would be pretty sick to go alongside Arkham Shadow.
I own a meta quest 2 and i hardly touch it or use it and For 500$ just to play 1 game it's not worth the asking price.
@@thatjackass1403 the 3s is coming out soon for $299. What games or experiences have you tried on it? Because if you aren't broadening your horizons and you only see the shovelware or the old tech demos then yeah I fully understand. I play standalone only. But I also use it to watch videos, play flat screen apps like RuneScape or call of duty mobile on a 70 inch screen. Like there are so many more things than just tech demos now. Assassin's creed Best was the first game I've played and beat in a long time because it was so interactive and immersive. Just don't get that with flat screen.
You should try Blade and Sorcery.
Risk? What do you mean? Meta own the studio
It should also be available on PSVR 2.
@@thebulldozer9198 no it shouldn’t,it was funded by Meta and is being developed by Camouflaj,which happens to be a first party studio owned by Meta.just like Sony uses exclusive content to sale PlayStation consoles,Meta is doing the same to sale the Quest 3
With that being said,I definitely understand the frustration.it’s not like PSVR2 owners don’t have a lot to look forward to as well though.they just announced the Hitman trilogy and tomorrow will be the official announcement of Starship Troopers VR too.those are too huge exclusives for PSVR2
Might be a meta exclusive because of an upcoming xbox collab with meta quest vr
Arkham Shadow is a Meta Quest 3 exclusive. Meta might have it ported to PCVR in the future though, it's up to them if they want to.
@@Drexxyl i heard leaks about meta vr being used on the upcoming xbox
@@SarimSense You can play Xbox on the Quest headsets on a giant screen.
It’s made for VR though!
@@Dogboy73 Meta funded and are developing the game though.this isn’t a Rocksteady project like the other Batman Arkham games.I believe there is a misconception and people think Rocksteady abandoned PS5,Xbox Series X/S and PC in order to make a Quest 3 exclusive.that would be dumb and they would never do this,they would want to have their games accessible to as many gamers as possible.Meta is just trying to sale as many headsets as possible
Its cheaper to get a quest 3 than it is to buy a ps5 pro. Ill let that sink in
You should try, Into The Radius
That's kinda like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. in VR or closely related right?
@@Drexxyl Yup!
@@Drexxyl One of the best VR games, period. Also, look into Vertigo 1 and 2. Vertigo 2, especially, is a better Half Life game than Half Life Alyx gameplaywise.
@@LARVideos One of the benefits to waiting so long for VR is my backlog is astronomical. So many bangers I gotta play.
This game wouldn't be an issue and so controversial if Wb actually made a stream of good dc games.Dc fans out here starving for content meanwhile marvel fans eating.
Yes 100%
Great vid unfortunately VR is something you need to try, until they do it just looks like a bad graphics FPS Arkham game and they will not understand it.
I'd say it looks about on par with the 360/PS3 Arkham games. I agree on having to try it though as I had the same thoughts about VR until actually putting on the headset and actually playing some games.
@@Drexxyl indeed though if you go back to these ps3/360 games you will notice that while still good graphics close up textures would not be good enough for an FPS view so this game has far more detailed textures.
@@RedcoatTrooper I feel like that's any FPS game though, zoom in too close on textures and you're bound to see the imperfections. For an entirely wireless headset, I think Shadows is damn impressive.
But yeah, it’s the Sony ponies that are making all the complaining and bitching in the comment section that this game isn’t coming to their shitty console
All the people dogging it are Sony PlayStation fan boys because it’s not coming to their gay VR headset
The only ones butt hurt about this is Sony PlayStation fan boys because they expect all of the Batman games and all DC games to be on. PlayStation only forget you fanboy all Meta here.
Absolutely not, no game is worth 500 dollars
@JohnnyNoPockets I already have a quest 2, I have no reason to buy a whole new headset for 1 or 2 new games
@JohnnyNoPockets idk man, vr is vr
Quest 3 exclusivity, not even on pcvr
Yeah it's a double exclusive whammy. Meta is footing the bill for it though so it wouldn't even exist without them. Who knows maybe they'll port it within a year to pcvr.
The next installment should be an LG Refridgerator Exclusive. Hey at least it's not Suicide Squad am I right?
I take it you're a Suicide Squad fan? I mean despite the hate games like The Avengers got, it was still decent for what it was and the characters played as one would expect. In SS pretty much all the characters played the same and no one really stood out, and the story was hot caca.
hot take suicide squad is genuinely good apart from batmans death the rest of it is fire
You are in the vast minority in that opinion, lol. What did you like most about the game?
the endgame sucks
😂😂😂😂 it was absolute fire??? only fire that game has is the fire it was thrown into by rocksteady and sweet baby inc. Absolute woke garbage.
1:30 Origins is the worst of the saga, the most part of the game is recycled from city and the only thing that can be saved are the boss fights
It's an entirely different map compared to City though? While I prefer Cities map by a country mile there are many good things about Origins, like it's story and as you mentioned the boss fights.
@@Drexxyl The story is very mid
