This game absolutely doesn’t deserve all the hate it gets. It’s my favorite of the Arkham series and one of my favorite games of all time. This game truly defines “Be The Batman.”
I’m agreed with you there. Arkham Knight is one of the best games of all time, but Asylum and City is better, but Knight is still a masterpiece! But! One thing every gamer can agree on, overuse on Batmobile
Yeahh facts
Pizza_Eating_Pug personally I found Arkham knight a better story than Arkham city’s story as I feel like most of the stuff in Arkham city was unnecessary and could’ve been avoidable like with the whole thing about Joker and also left some questions that never get answered like how did Hugo strange found out about Batman’s identity? What is money worth in a purge like city?
Agreed
Be Batman; on his last night as Batman; in a city under quarantine and evacuation; with mercenaries and tanks everywhere.
We needed REAL Gotham: with civilians, traffic, local crime, investigations and branching side missions without chaos everywhere 24/7 and everything isn’t on fire or destroyed.
Hey, I don't know if you know this but the dialogue of the officers guarding officer Owens in the GCPD changes depending on if you shot the firearm in the restaurant scene.
For example, when you shoot they say something like "I can't imagine how he'll feel after finding out what he did" and when you don't shoot they say "I don't know how he managed to keep himself from shooting those people".
I recently found it
Owens himself has unique dialogue based on your actions there.
Maybe it's a bug but I've had a couple play throughs where I didn't shoot and I'd still hear the dialogue about shooting them.
Erik Canady like not at all?
@@erikcanady432 if you just shoot the gun it registers as you shooting someone even if you didn’t. If you didn’t shoot the gun at all then idk
@@ryanmorgan6834 Thanks. I'm aware of how it works. But no. I have had several playthroughs where I'm not even touching the controller BEFORE he pulls the gun and I'll still get the shooting people dialogue.
This is still one of the best looking games. 5 years later
I know it's absolutely crazy to me in 2020 that this 2015 game looks like it could have come out today.
@@DegenerateJay Man have you seen how awful the square enix avengers game looks?
It looks like a mobile-free-to-play compared to Arkham Knight.
Billy Kotsos lol true not to mention that the combat looks atrocious
Degenerate Jay do u prefer knight or origins? I prefer knight more just because I liked the story more in knight than in origins. IMO
@@DegenerateJay this game also looks amazing on xbox series x
It's honestly fun other than the tank side missions
True but I wish the batmobile wouldn't have such a bulbous caboose
It looks like the same problem Spider-Man has: a 2 button spammer
I like your profile pictures i love Kevin’s sims series 😂
@@kintarokimura it is dummy thick
@@tyronemagnus6543 fr tho
I feel like jason todd being the arkham knight would have been so much better if rocksteady didn’t say anything about the character. Looking at it isolated, it is a very nice «twist» which ties together the story’s theme of batman being afraid of failure and making poor decisions because of it. And jason redeeming himself at the end is a way too show how batman should have placed more faith in his allies.
That's a very good point. I think it would have been a lot more enjoyed by the public if Rocksteady hadn't really doubled down on the untruth of it being a new character.
@@DegenerateJay arkham aslyum says otherwise
I didn’t really like how Jason redeemed himself because they hyped him to be Batman’s biggest enemy in a while, he spent forever trying to kill him, and all of a sudden, he’s good, like wtf
I think it’s strange that Jason even works with scarecrow and other villains
@@DegenerateJay they also didnt set up jason in any of the other games
Asylum: The original
City: The golden boy
Origins: The forgotten one
Knight: The flawed masterpiece
Yes
You are at least 85% correct
FAX
Arkham Origins Online: Dead beyond the grave
Origins isn't bad, it just doesn't hold up to the others. It's pretty different game
Its a good game, just the tank being shoved down your throat is really annoying. Other than that, I love it
Those are good sequences but most of them should of just been included in challenges
Even then I only find it offensive in a few areas. The Ace Chemical section is so boring. The Arkham Knight and DeathStroke fights are so bad because there is no normal, and good fight with these characters. And the lower section of the Knights hideout is also pretty offensive because you have to keep getting out and in.which is where I think the implementation is at it's worse. And any section that lightly uses the Batmobile requires you to hop in and out and use the winch awkwardly.
@@handgun559funny the Arkham knight boss fight after the tank fight is like two face and me freeze boss fight from city but you don't hate on those I wonder why 🤔
@@elliottpowell5130 + Deadshot in Arkham City and Origins
@@MarinetteDupainCheng564 dead shot in origins is actually okay but in city is crap handgun is just on the Arkham knight hate wagon
My biggest issue with this game is them pretending that the Arkham knight was an entirely new character. When really he was just Jason Todd. And what’s worse is that they literally just ripped off the movie
I completely agree with this. If the movie didn't exist and there was no Red Hood twist in the comics, sure this would have been really interesting. The issue was that it's just a reskin of Red Hood and it makes the game out to almost be a discount under the Red Hood at times. It's a little frustrating that they doubled down so hard on saying it was somebody else and then it just ends up to be him.
@@DegenerateJay "discount under the red hood"? How could u think Jason is the focus of the game? It's also about Batman's mind deteriorating as he slowly turns into his greatest fear, Joker, and about Scarecrow trying to destroy the symbol of Batman and everything he stands for by exposing him as "a man, just a man", so there is no more symbol for criminals to fear and citizens to put their faith in. Discount under the red hood my ass
Slippin' Jimmy well the game is quite literally named after the exact same character and scarecrow gets somewhat sidelined by Arkham knight
@@alecg.5638 well hes not wrong, it is a discount of under the red hood though
@@oglungbusta3587 it is titled arkham knight, not for his importance but bcs it fits with the rest of the series. Arkham knight doesn't sideline anyone, the game focuses on him in the first part of the game but Joker becomes the main focus after ace chemicals. And the game basically forgets Jason in the second half until his bossfight, showing scarecrow to be the true villain. That's another thing, Arkham Knight isn't the big bad guy like in under the red hood. He's focused on for a while but the game ultimately makes him quite insignificant compared to joker and scarecrow. Basically, arkham knight is one of my all time favorite games, and I accept it has flaws and is deserving of some criticism, but discount under the red hood, what with all the other far more interesting plotlines going on? That's just a poor criticism
I honestly think most of the hate has to do with the context of the game. It was following arkham city which was amazing and was supposed to be a grand finale so obviously if it wasn’t perfect it was gonna get torn apart
They did ruin the boss fight against deathstroke that fight defo should of been hand to hand combat. That fight could of been amazing
That was something that really pissed me off, during the two missions, Everytime you get the item, Deathstroke says that he doesn't like drones and shit like that, and at the end the boss fight is Deathstroke inside a tank
Throughout the game, after Deathstroke takes over from AK, he talks a good game of what he's done since his and Bats' last encounter. That, in itself, makes the Tank Battle more irritating.
The Charismatic Gamer 99 yep he keeps saying how he trained for their fight to just end up using a tank
I say keep the tank segment but shorten it to just 2 or so hits, and then, you walk up to the tank, and BOOM, Deathstroke bursts out and takes to the rooftops with his own grapple. You have to then track him down as he moves through the area, chase him to a building, and then get an all out balls to the wall boss fight that fully utilises the combat and even sequences where you need to sneak up on him between phases.
ki Norris that would've been awesome
I call this "the game everybody hates but enjoys"
I recently played this game for the first time, and somehow through the whole marketing campaign, I never knew Jason Todd was the Arkham knight. To me, the reveal was actually surprising and I loved the game, despite too many bat tank missions
You have perfectly encapsulated how I feel about the game!
I didn’t know if it was Jason Todd but as soon as I saw the arkam knight I was like oh that’s one of the robins
Literally replayed this last week and I gotta say it’s the best one
Yeah, i don’t care what people say this is my favorite arkham series game. BUT there is rumors of another one coming out
@@k.kinawheelchair6982 yes but also no in a way now.
@@supersaiyanjalil Technically the game is going to be called Gotham Nights. Which implys the whole Arkham game series is over.
@@BittersweetDuality City has a better story but I wouldn't say it's a better game.
@@Rotodojo-yf9sq I mean if nuking the intelligence of every main character makes a good story, then sure it's a masterpiece.
Bruce was face to face with Joker's fun house mirror. How did he not notice the discrepancies again?
Arkham origins was said to be the worst in the series, now everyone is saying its underrated. (which it is imo) People have been saying its so underrated for so long that its a popular opinion at this point, especially on the subreddit.
i like origins more than asylum
It's basically like how r/unpopularopinion is just a circle jerk of fairly popular opinions.
It has always been a popular opinion that origins was underrated.
@Kahinur Nessa yeah it's kind of annoying
Origins is good for the 'mano a mano' boss battles, and the rest? is basically Arkham city with snow.
@@werewolfx51 yeah arkham origins just felt like a really long expansion to arkham city.
I can easily say that this is the best one out of the entire series.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Put them pitchforks down. Okay, you like Arkham City better, that’s fine.
I will not put my pitchfork down thank you
I like this. But it's still my least favorite.
Sergio Ramirez agreed
@@nolanc9432 same
What's crazy I still play this game to this day, I remember when I got it, it was my last day of high school and I just graduated and went to school to pick up my diploma and then after when to GameStop and picked up Arkham Knight, love this game ever since it released.
Even if someone loathes this game, they should appreciate the voluminous amounts of work out into this beautiful gem of a game. Props to everyone at Rocksteady for being so damn good at their jobs.
From what i remember was the lack of emphasis on hand to hand combat and too much focus on the batmobile. The boss fights were another thing. Didn't have the quality of bosses from previous games where each boss fight felt unique and different. Hand to hand boss fights, stealth boss fights, gadget boss fights. There were only two in the main story. 2 were batmobile and one was a stealth boss fight that didn't even feel like a fight, just mostly a heated discussion.
Arkham Knight is my favorite in the series. Driving around in the batmobile is really fun, and if battle mode wasn't a thing, then this game would be pretty much perfect.
Exactly I think it has a better story but wasn’t executed right Arkham city had the best plot twist Origins had the second Knight had the worst Batman was the best in Arkham Knight tho he was actually scary instead of cocky/arrogant in Origins Grumpy face in Asylum and well jokey in city? He smiled alot (and his base character was smirking I think)Well something like that IMO I think he was the least scary out of them all but Knight was just terrifying especially when we saw it from the henchmen’s point of view with joker also he genuinely looks furious (because of joker in his head) so IMO Knight best Batman in the series
Yeahhh!
It has my least favorite story but my favorite gameplay of the series
Nah the battle mode was pretty fun too, like when you first gain control of the batmobile & do those first few battles & missions it's really sick. The problem is, there were just too many battle/tanks littered throughout the city and it became excessive. On the contrary if they had mitigated the conflicts down to just a few sweet battles & missions I really think people would've loved it, that and... don't relegate potentially really cool boss fights like Deathstroke & Red Hood to tank battles. Especially shitty tank battles like the Red Hood one...
@@RatedRY yeah that's true... They definitely did overdo the tank battles, prob would've been fine if they left the boss battles out of the tank
I love this game. The story is great. The graphics, everything was good except the hush story and the tank missions
The game is still incredibly beautiful by today’s standards, maybe even prettier than some games that are released today. The gameplay is smoother than the other Batman games and even the Batmobile control is not bad, although there’s too much of the batmobile
I know this is a year old, but my biggest gripe is less to do with the bat mobile itself and more to do with the tank assault mode because it prevents you from enjoying the other bat mobile skins which dont have that function.
There’s way too much stuff in the game that relies on assault mode even outside of the tank drone segments, like using the wench and canon for riddler trophies/ breakable objects to shoot and other obstacles to progress and dealing with gun turret placements that prevent you from progressing.
It’s the assault mode stuff that I think people find irritating and overplayed. And for good reason. I don’t get why they emphasized it so much.
Once I found your channel it convinced me to replay the Arkham games. Now that I beat the first 3, I’m actually enjoy the bat mobile more than before, because I just played three games of just combat.
I always had a small gripe with Batman's face in this game. His mouth always looked like it was too low on his face. Otherwise, I love his character model.
I always get annoyed by that stupid scratch he has on his cheek in every game.
The more times I replay Arkham Knight the less certain things bother me and the more I appreciate other things.
Arkham Knight is a good game but some criticisms I have are:
- there are too many tank battles it wasted a Deathstroke hand to hand rematch
- Jason Todd being Arkham Knight was slightly predictable
- Hush was wasted
-
I know man!! If you go to his hideout in Arkham City, you can hear the same voices from the morgue in Arkham Asylum and you can see Scarecrow's gas, and you can't see your reflection in the mirror.
Joker being stuffed down our throat. Why kill him in Arkham City if he’s going to be in 90% of Arkham Knight’s storyline? It doesn’t matter who’s the main villain, the writers make sure that Joker is always there. It’s tiresome and copy paste material
Joni Joker is just too popular. He’s too much of a good thing if you get what I’m saying.
Man-Bat was an amazing side mission too :)
Agreed it was done really really well! Cool horror elements included too :)
One thing I loved about this game was after you saw Jason “die” your attitude towards tim changes and you lock him up to protect him but just puts him in harms way with harley
The only thing I hated about Arkham Knight was how much the Bat-tank was stuffed in the game
I love the batmobile but i get your point
That's a good way of putting it, it gets the criticism it deserves but not the credit it deserves.
Most challenging mission for me was the cloudburst mission. That tank literally goes 0 - 100 real quick.
Me: plays the Professor Pyg mission
My pants: you are now brown
Me: *sees title*
Also me: *thinks of Arkham Origins*
No one talks about how AWESOME the detective mode it is in this game. ITS AMAZING 🔥🔥🔥
Honestly all four of the games are amazing in their own way and it's amazing to see all the different ways they made each game unique
We just needed that death stroke battle to be actual combat and not bat tank
I just started playing this game. I love it personally, some of the tank missions are bad, but other then that, I'm loving it.
I love Knight. I got into the series only a few years ago so I missed the marketing for the game. I am happy I did because that way, I could enjoy the game more.
Arkham Knight was my first Arkham game. I got it for my birthday; June 25th - just a few days after it was released- and when it got hit with criticism, I was irritated and confused. When I went back and played it after experiencing the rest of the games, I could see the faults. Knight's still my favorite Arkham game, but I can say that I dont have any bias because I can now see it through a critical lens.
I love this game and played it a thousand times. The only gripes I have are the insane amount of Riddler trophies, the stupid "don't get hit" Azrael side missions and the Deathstroke "tank" mission that is a complete waste of the character. The rest is really good, and I personally love the Two-Face and Man-Bat missions.
This is my favorite Batman game. I'm tired of the whining about "too much Batmobile" or "too many Riddler trophies."
I just started replaying this game and I’ve been enjoying it way more than I did the first time
I actually don't think the batmobile was Over used. I think ppl think it was overused becuase of the lack of bossfights. If we would have had a boss fight after a tank boss battle (deathstroke, cloudburst, Mr freeze, firefly, the firemen) the use of the batmobile wouldn't have been a problem
It definitely had its flaws, but I ultimately agree. It gets way more flack than it deserves. The tank battles, the Batmobile, some of the story elements, the Arkham Knight and lots of other things are crap about it - but it’s graphics are great (as you said), the gameplay is great and it’s a nice send off to the series. That’s the great thing about Arkham, the whole series is filled with great video games and pillars of the superhero licensed genre.
What's funny about people saying there's too much Riddler is that this game has fewer Riddler challenges than Arkham City on a map that's like 3x bigger.
It goes in so hard on the militarised aesthetic, and huge bombastic explosions and set pieces and drones and soldiers, that a certain point...it ceases to be truly faithful to the spirit of the character.
Really my main issue with the batmobile, is that it basically took away boss battles. That reeeaaally bugged me alot. And it still does. But this game is still fantastic no doubt. The whole no boss fights is really the only big issue I have with it, most of the issues are small issues to me. As you mentioned, the game is visually beautiful, still is 5 years later. I still play through it from time to time, even though I've beaten more times than I remember
I used to love Arkham Knight, then ended up hating it. However, ever since I've been replaying it recently, I have to say, despite all of the game's glaring flaws, I still love it and have such a fun time with it whenever I pick it up. It looks gorgeous, the story that went on with Joker in Batman's head was beautifully written, and overall I still love it. It is DEFINITELY not a perfect game by any means, but I still think that it's the very least you would expect from an Arkham game: a really really good game.
My biggest gripe: They should've found a way to include all the side mission villians like TwoFace and Penguin into the story. Having those side areas is fine, but why not have them be lieutenants in Scarecrow's army, using their knowledge and resources to fight Batman instead of just milling around.
I actually liked the tank stuff as well as the more batmany stuff so the game was flawless in my eyes, I just wish there was actually a final boss fight
Jason Todd's predictability is only a problem on the first playthrough of the game's story, that's why I don't find that to be a very valid complaint, it's still true and people can be justifiably angry about it, but in the grand scheme of things it isn't a big deal, it's not a fundamental flaw in gameplay or anything that ruins the experience everytime. I also love those trippy jason Todd torture scenes, I love that isn't a cutscene and you remain in gameplay
They should have definitely made Jason be Red Hood and not keep it a "secret" who he is. The name could have stayed as Batman Arkham Knight.
I played the game for the first time on the five year anniversary. I'm only 11% into the story and my only real complaint is the Batmobile. And I'm not talking the tank battles. Even though the tank battles shouldn't be there. In Pursuit mode the Batmobile is very difficult to handle. I felt like throwing my PS4 out the window following Jim Gordon to the clock tower. 🤣
I replayed the whole game last week. I actually love the game. There are few things I don’t like. But the world, the characters, the graphics, the details, the references and Easter eggs. Chef’s kiss 👌🏾
My best friend just uses my Steam share and played all of the Arkham games back to back for the first time. It was an honor and pleasure to watch my bro play these games that I love so much. Every step of the of the way I knew what he would encounter and seeing him react was great. When he got to Arkham Knight he was blown away by the game and declared it his favorite out of the series.
I feel like they should have showed a flashback like what they did with oracle but for nightwing to explain the rivalry with him and penguin like maybe a penguin goon kills his parents or something.
Honestly, Arkham Knight is my favorite Arkham game. I loved the Batmobile mechanics, the gliding, most of the side mission too.
It was just amazing.
Arkham Knight was my first ever Arkham game, I was unaware of the other games and went into this one blind without looking at an marketing. To this day, it is still my favorite video game of all time, and I get a lot of shit for it, but it actually is my favorite game. Plus in comparison to City and Asylum, I feel this game had a more in depth story. Don’t get me wrong I love of the story of City, but my biggest complaint is how short it is. I could go on for hours about how I feel about Arkham Knight but instead I’ll just leave you with this. I loved the story, and I hope all upcoming games will take notes from it, hopefully learning from the lesson that marketing can ruin a story
This game is so good in almost every way that i platinumed it. The graphics are one of if not the best graphics ever.
“In every single way” did you forget hush, batmobile and the villains
@@salahdeanclemens2226 every game has some downsides and for me i liked the batmobile honestly but yeah some side villains were boring
I think it speaks to just how good the Arkham series is that, even at their worst, they're some of the best action games out there
In my opinion the only thing bad about knight is how much the bat mobile is used. The story is amazing (even if with the whole Jason Todd thing), the gameplay when it comes to stealth, free flow and traversal is without a doubt the best in the series, the atmosphere in my opinion is better than asylum at a lot of times, the side missions were better than origins and city. The amount of dlc that came out like you said as well as the dlc side missions being so fun and a great expansion on things that happened from city. If anyone finished reading this, cheers.
I played this game again last night since I haven't played it in a long time. I still had a lot of fun.
When you’re so early you don’t have a good comment😐
I was earlier and I had a good comment
@@tyronemagnus6543 And so humble about it
Jim Picone Pickens not a good comment just a lot of likes not saying it's a bad comment just having likes doesn't make it good
Jim Picone Pickens wasn’t a good comment just stated a generic opinion about the game
I played it on new game + couple weeks ago, it still is so fun when you are not in the battank.
Personally, I really only have 3 complaints. The cobra tanks, how they treated Deathstroke, and having the sub plot about the joker blood instead of it being just a hallucination from the fear gas. With that said, this is still my favorite though.
I actually loved jokers commentary in the game
The one thing that would be icing on the cake is to have a Catwoman skin from Batman returns, also a Batman forever themed race would be cool
This game is a masterpiece it really shouldn’t have such a bad rep
I love AK for the most part. There're things I hate about it. Like the ending where Jason's quick turnaround and saving Batman after Batman is unmasked. Rocksteady crammed almost 10 different storylines from the comics. With noticable changes. I'm 50/50 on joker involvement. Speaking of the whole Batman wasn't cured is bs he was that's how Batman is still alive in AK.
Arkham knight is an amazing game. I love the way this game looks, it looks unreal levels of amazing. I think that the combat and stealth sections have been perfected, I dont even know if they can improve them. I loved moving throughout gotham because it looks so gritty and cool. I loved driving the batmobile, It truly builds on the batman experience and makes you feel like batman. I even like the batmobile combat. I know that the game has a bunch of problems with the story and the sheer amount of batmobile is just plane stupid but man this game is a gem. I have 100% it 5 times, the only other game I have ever played that much is arkham city
It was at 1:50 I realised that Harley's hair is still partially dyed black from the aftermath of the Harley Quinn's Revenge DLC in the challenge maps and her Arkham Knight mini story.
This game's attention to detail and graphics still impress me even 6 years after release
this changed my viewpoint on Batman Arkham Knight, I was always looking about the worse parts of the game like the driving/tank missions, when I never really took the time to try to enjoy the better parts of the game like the Riddler Missions or even just the Graphics, the story could of been way better but I do like what they did with certain parts of it.
Batman Arkham Knight definitely should not get as much hate as it gets.
If I could make one change to the game, I would add a pick up in the Arkham Knight HQ that would let you use the Remote Hacking Device to shut down the road bombs and Catwoman's collar. You can still do those sidequests as originally intended, but you can skip the padding if you wanted, and it's balanced by being a late game pick up.
I love the game. The combat system is the best and it looks amazing as well. Sure the tank stuff is annoying, but damn it, I love that game
It looks and (tank fights aside) plays astonishingly good. Batman feels brutal and fast and immense
I loved 90% of the story (tank missions aside) and I like a lot of the side missions.
I replay it every year or so along with city
It sucks when you get tge story at 240% you have nothing else to do other than that stupid challenges
That suit with the golden bat logo is my favorite in the whole series and it sucks that I can’t use it playing the main story again
I got to 240% also.
I had nothing else to do so I got the platinum trophy on it for ps4.
This was my first arkham game and i since i havent played the rest of the games i was fine with the weird story and stuff. But yeah the tank battles got really repetitive but i remember myself just going to the top of Wayne tower and just looking at the beautiful city below, and that's the fondest memory i have of the game
Just played through Asylum, City, and Knight and got 100% completion on all. I really like knight but the other two are better. The thing I like most about knight is that it vastly improved character models. I also liked how you can complete side missions before completing the main story
“The other two,” did you just forget about Origins?
If WB Montreal makes a new Batman game, one thing that would be good to include is tutorials. I just jumped back into Arkham Knight after 2 or 3 years and I have no idea how to use any of the WayneTech upgrades I've unlocked, which is difficult when you're trying to 3-star the AR challenges for more upgrade points.
One thing we can agree on, the Arkham Knight was one of the coolest looking villains of all time
There was nothing wrong with the Batmobile.
Some tank quests were repetitive and annoying, but that is a quest design issue, not a Batmobile issue.
The game wasn't perfect, but it was still a GREAT game.
And even though arkham knight was Jason Todd and we all know that, I still think he is a great character and it is really hard to make another villain and make him interesting.
Facts. People hate hella on this game just because it’s different than Asylum and City. The combat, traversal and overall mechanics were BY FAR the best in the entire series, same with the graphics too. I know that Origins has a ton of suits to pick from, but I believe that Knight has the best selection of suits as well. People complain that the Nightwing, Red Hood, and Robing DLC’s were too short (they were) but I’m glad they were included at all. Also I don’t like how in City instead of being able to play as Robin or Nightwing in the story you only get to play as Catwoman that is whack, but in Knight you can play as Robin and Nightwing from time to time. The AR challenges in Knight also hold the top spot in the series, as well as the way they included WaynePoints. One thing I didn’t like was having to use the tank a ton. I loved the inclusion of the Batmobile overall, but the tank felt like a cheap cop out at times. I like the long selection of villains and side missions, but the length could have been a lot better. Some of the boss fights were very disappointing (Deathstroke, Firefly, Hush). One of my favorite parts of the game was the customization along with the GCPD, and inclusion of Jason Todd in the series. Overall I honestly give this game an 8/10, and did a pretty good job of wrapping certain things up in the Arkhamverse.
The only thing i'd say is not great about this game, is that there's a bit too much Batmobile and underwhelming bosses, other than that, everything else is amazing, Bat suits are beautiful, the city is great, Scarecrow goes around the scale of edgyness and ends up being so edgy that he's cool, story is awesome, love seeing that closure, it's just the best Arkham game
the design for the arkham knight is badass you can't lie
Knight is objectively the best Arkham game and all that anyone can remember about it is that fucking tank
Personally knight is my favorite, I love the graphics but also, I prefer the why they did the side missions like how it comes up in a weel, I don't particularly like the arkham city were you have to look for them on the map
I have played through Arkham Knight at least 6 times. It is an amazing game that didn’t deserve ALL the flack it got. But definitely some. I am looking at you Bat Tank.
Hush, the villains etc
This game is a fun time, good atmosphere. Great voicing again from Kevin Conroy. But have to say, such a step down from Arkham City. That game wanted to tell a story, and just happened to also come with some really tight combat and world building.
Arkham Knight within the first hour of gameplay is just a wankfest of how many bat gadgets we can throw at the player. It makes me chuckle
I think origins is the one people usually forget. "The trilogy" is a very common term people use to dismiss the existence of Arkham Origins.
I recently finished another play through after leaving it alone for a few years. Its a beautiful game. I’ve had it since the release and was a season pass holder. Season of Infamy was a great addition to the side missions but I could have done without some of the riddler racetracks. So. Many. Riddler. Trophies🤯🤬
I honestly loved it more than Arkham City. Though I think what sets me apart is that I enjoyed the Tank missions.
Everything was brilliant-except for its story and its over reliance of the Batmobile, those parts were horrendous.
Rocksteady should said that’s red hood
I feel like this is the only batman game that made me feel badass and armed to the teeth, whilst not making me feel too overpowered. You do something dumb, you die. This is my favourite Arkham game, city is next. Not sure why everyone hates it. It had so much content. Sure tanks are annoying but really, its not a huge deal compared to the issues other games face these days.
One thing I really don't like is that, we have been asking for the batmobile for years, and now we got it, they tried to give us as much use from it as possible, but they knocked it out of the park, and almost everyone hated it
You should review X-Men Legends. I know it's an old game but myself and I imagine many others have great memories of squadding up with a multi-tap on PS2 and having fun
Lol that a major throwback one of my favs
I would have loved this game more if we got to put Batman in the quarantine cell then played the rest as Robin. Then the twist after Scarecrow is that Batman escaped the cell and is now the main threat, completely Jokerfied and now he is The Batman Who Laughs. Final showdown is Robin, Nightwing, and Red Hood vs. The Batman Who Laughs.
This game is really amazing. The only thing which bothers me is sometimes the side quests are repetitive. Every game mechanic reached perfection here. I even don't get the hate about Knight being Jason Todd. I honestly find it a great twist, (and yes, I've seen Under the red Hood) and I'm really glad they have put that in the game. Seriously, who wanted a full unknown new villain in the game?? I just don't get it :D
It wasn't a great twist because of how predictable it was.
Even the tank parts aren’t bad. They’re actually very fun. There’s just too much of them.
I wish they honestly could’ve done this better for Jason. Maybe if they did a under the red hood movie thing, where you know it’s Jason, but the main thing is Bat’s reaction. or maybe put through city where they KNEW they’d do Arkham Knight a few Jason Todd scenes so it could have build up.
Great gameplay but has serious flaws: 1) Lackluster story, 2) Poor to No boss fights, 3) Over-emphasis on Batmobile.
