- Fear drives everything... and now we drive the Batmobile! Okay as yall guessed - this is easily one of my favorites. You know how much I love the main antagonist and now the stakes are even higher! The graphics! THE CITY! My heart is filled to the brim with excitement and something tells me we will have our fill of side missions too. I hope yall enjoy this short little episode, because going forward they are much longer 😬 Thanks for watching 💛

If someone told me that this game came out this year, I would believe them, it's unbelievable that this game came out almost a decade ago, and it's still one of the most beautiful games of all time🔥
I watched a side by side comparison with Suicide Squad and it's incredible what a downgrade it is compared to Arkham Knight that came out 9 years prior.
To be honest this should have been the standard back then and the fact that people are shocked by it’s visuals just shows that games have pretty much peaked with graphics. The only way to top this is to create original characters indistinguishable from real people equal or better then photorealism-which honestly sounds boring for standard games unless it’s something like a murder mystery or horror.
Same. I still can’t believe how good it looks compared to other games that came out afterwards.
Truly, and it’s a testament to what genuine characters the old Rocksteady team were. They were truly invested and fans of their creations.
And it came out on the PS4/XBOX ONE that's even more shocking what those 2013 consoles could do lmaooo
I love how you can see Riddler get messier and messier throughout the series, he originally had this clean and handsome image in Origins, but over time he got so frustrated against Batman that he just doesn't care anymore about his looks
Me too
In City he looks like Kevin Bacon to me.
Ohh we don't mind if you're gonna gawking at all the details on this game, trust me i been replaying this game so many times and I'm still discovering new things till this day.
I am at 42:42 and man...Kas knows how to appreciate a game that's all I have to say 💀. Everyone needs a fan like Kas lol
20:25 here and we haven’t even started playing yet 😂
Utterly ridiculous how good this game still looks almost a decade after its release. You are in for a treat with this one!
A recommendation I'm sure many have made but I will add my voice to: Batman The Animated Series. It was the debut of Conroy and Hamill as Batman and Joker respectively, it created Harley, it made Mr. Freeze go from C-list villain to one of the most compelling in the rogue's gallery, its aesthetic of dark deco has been forever looked to ever since by other animation and this series of games as well.
1:57 - Really funny to listen when you know that literally the first thing in the game is cremation of Joker's body
Also, the song in the diner is Only You by The Platters which Joker was singing in the credits of Arkham City.
btw. You can use bonus suits during first playthrough. The completion of the main story isn't necessary.
The fact that its been almost 10 years now since we got a good triple A Batman game suckkkssss.
WB has been a major letdown over the last 10 years. So many characters and stories to tell but we get nothing of importance or rushed movies
Never apologize for taking your time with this. It's an awesome change of pace from all the other RUclipsrs who just rush to the end, and I've been wanting to see someone actually take their time and appreciate the artistic masterpiece of this series, and especially this game.
I admit, I never had the patience myself to read through all the City Stories in Arkham City, nor the ones from this game either, but reading through them with someone else makes them really interesting to me for some reason.
I love these videos so much, just take your time--I don't want this series to end too fast and I know you don't either 😅
Her Riddler Obsession is gonna be a menacing for the watchers because He Will Taunt her & She Will Fold to those Taunts😅😂🤣
Edit - By the way Maggie, you'll have to collect all the riddler trophies & put all the Criminals behind bars to get the True Final ending of the game.
Plus if you are looking to Deep Dive further into the world of Batman I would Recommend the following Animated Films & TV Series just to keep it simple :
- Batman The Animated Series
- Batman The Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
- Justice League & Justice League Unlimited TV Series
- Batman Beyond TV Series
- Batman Under The Red Hood (2009) [Tip - Better to watch after you Complete Arkham Knight]
- Batman The Dark Knight Return Part I & II
- Batman The Killing Joke (2016)
Great list. I don't like anything where Batman is with other superheroes, but still I watched these Justice League series. But first, she still needs to watch Batman movie, it is criminal that she hasn't yet
@@triv4492 I love it when Batman is with other superheroes his friendship with Superman is iconic.
@@callmejacob3234 i like when the Batman's world is as realistic as possible, without superpowers, aliens etc.
@@triv4492I personally actually love it when Batman is with other heroes and deals with more fantastical villains on top of nore typical grounded threats and still teams up with allies like his wholesome friendship with Superman and the Justice League, as we've sene countless shows, movies and comics be able to write the character as mature and human as any good character but still feel naturally at home when he's with other characters of the DC Universe. I can totally understand if you prefer Batman being morr grounded character and thats your opinion which is completely fair, I just personally love seeing a good ratio of Batman being both fantastical and grounded since Batman is a multi faceted character who works in countless different media, whether hes in a grounded gritty story or a more light hearted, campy tone, they both work when written well like in the Dark Knight trilogy or the show Batman: Brave abd the Bold
This game is just one of the best of all time imo
14:32 btw you can check on the officer you played as. His mental state is different depending if you killed, missed on purpose, or didnt shoot
I love watching your playthroughs because you really take in the games and maximize your experience. If I were a game dev this exactly how I would want to see people enjoying the games I worked on.
YYYYAAAASSSS!!!!
I've been waiting for this one. I love the Knight. The graphics and gameplay can still hold up to today's standards and I love it
Her vs The Riddler will be a must watch
41:51 i love than fact she pays attention to the world design. it is one fav things to just look around and absorb the buildings and statues etc in the arkham games
One of the best games I have ever played
"If you're lying, I'll break the other one!" *Crack* (Peak Batman.)
Never seen such an enthusiastic gameplay, very cool to watch
You are surprisingly good at the Batmobile! I am somehow proud of that lol
I love how you take the time to fully appreciate all the small details of a game like this, your excitement is very endearing. This is going to be a great play though.
Also Fun Fact the Officer's Dialogue about Officer owns changes if you don't shoot your gun in the diner in the beginning.
His entire fate changes, iirc. It’s really cool.
Really? That’s good to know, once I’m done with AC Valhalla I’ll be playing Knight again and I’ll give that a go. Thanks for the tip 👍
Here I was expecting a 10 hour episode straight out the gate. Can’t wait for the rest of the uploads!
You're definitely the most detail oriented person I've seen react to this game and it definitely will pay off. Loved watching you made it even more fun!
I love the Arkham series. Every game is fantastic imo. Knight being my personal favorite of the 4.
I'm so ready for this! Clicked as soon as it popped up. Hope this playthrough is super long!
The games actually set on the main three Gotham islands that you saw in the background of both Arkham City and Arkham Origins. In Arkham Knight you can see both Arkham City in the background, along with New Gotham from Arkham Origins.
I am so happy you finally got to Arkham Knight! I had the best time in Knight🖤and many aspects of this game still feel mindblowing to this day
Finally! The spooky season is all year! And this game is no exception to that
If you don’t like the Batmobile controls I highly recommend turning on Battle Mode Toggle in the settings. It makes the experience a lot better overall
This makes Batmobile stuff soooooo much easier!
@@MagmAlex I can't believe most people played Battle mode toggle instead of holding it. I like holding for the the battle mode.
@@Gofakara_100 I find that holding the button down cramps my hand after a little bit. Also it makes driving and shooting more natural. R2 drive L2 break. R2 cannon L2 machine gun. Just makes more sense
Yes, the Arkham Knight playthrough!! So excited!!! 😁
This is gonna be so much fun can't wait
Let's go. Finally we are at Arkham Knight, I can't wait to watch your playthrough.
About other stuff you coul watch or read about Batman mythos, I would recommend you these comics and movies:
-Batman Arkham Asylum (this a comic that inspire the first Arkham game, not in its entariety but its premise. One of the best comics)
-Batman animated series (obviously)
-Batman: The Phantasm Mask (animated movie)
- Batman Year one and The Dark Knight Returns (I recommend these two at the same time because this is in the same universe. You can read the comics but you can also react to the amazing animated adaptations of it)
I could add more but I think the already mention are enough for now. I remember a while back when you watch some of the old Batman content you asked if we wanted to see your reaction to them, and yes, I think it could be awesome. A good place to start would be the Phantasm Mask or Year one followed by The Dark Knight Returns. In my opinion you should react to the animated series after those because finishing the series can take a while.
When you are done with Batman, you should really try the METRO three games. The attention to detail in METRO is crazy.
The Metro series is incredibly underrated and my personal top 3rd game of all time
Arkham Knight is by far the biggest of the Arkham games. I've never played it but hopefully when I buy the game I'll play it and I'll already like it 💯 Also the game actually sets on the main three Gotham Islands that I saw in the background of both Arkham city & Arkham Origins. It's also the best looking game of the series! 🎉🎉 I'm always super excited for this awesome playthrough it's gonna be fire 🔥🔥 and I hope you're doing well and having an amazing week 😊🙏💖
The voice of Jim Gordon is Jonathan Banks, he was Mike in Breaking Bad
this game was another league when it first came out and it still holds up so well, the only story game that could beat it in quality at the time was the witcher 3, 2015 really was an amazing year for gaming, also its probably already been suggested but batman : the killing joke is definitley worth watching
Time to lock in💯
I appreciate her attention to details. Next play through, go by each table of people talking and hear their conversations. The newspapers are different for each of them too. When you take the time to appreciate the scope and minute detail and put into everything, from the textures to the lighting to the interactions, you start to appreciate how the game was meant to be enjoyed; AND experience the fullness of the masterpiece that is Arkham Knight!
I've been waiting to play this. I've played all the other ones but haven't got to play this yet Thanks for looking around I love the details. 😎👍🏾
And here it is the final installment to the series I'm so excited to see you finish it I was skeptical at first but your appreciation, determination and improvements throughout each game was a real joy to behold enjoy this one take your time with this beautiful and amazing game also if you haven't been told enough make sure you do all side content before beating the game if you want the true ending loved this series and your journey through it keep up the great work
You can get Batman's electrical charge gun out of the evidence room right now. Just punch the glass and you'll have it again.
This game has a wealth of secrets but here's one u probably won't find on your own. In the police evidence locker go in there break the glass and get your REC gun, trust me the earlier u get it the better
You're not playing this on PC but the details on Batman's suit and his cape interacting with the rain are even more impressive with the Nvidia PhysX effects available on the PC version.
After Origins, it’s good to hear Kevin Conroys voice again. Batman is back.
This game had the best design for Poison Ivy.
The jump scare in the diner -- I hate to say it, but it's the first of MANY, in this game. One is REALLY going to scare you, but... you'll know it when you see it.
As always, when certain things stand out, scan it -- it'll likely be the answer to a riddle.
Wildcat is a vintage vigilante that trained Dinah Lance AKA Black Canary. For a brief time was a member of the JLA. Last time I saw him he was in in an underground fighting circuit for meta humans despite the fact he has no superpowers. But like Batman, he hits well above his weight.
I love how your (insert flag sound raising) geek flag starts apologetically starts to be flown immediately. Love it, you go!
play the dlcs when you beat the game,also in the evidence room you can take the electric charge gun early or as the main story progress you will eventually pick it up
You missed a special conversation with Jack Ryder in one of the interrogation rooms next to the cell where officer Owens was.
The amount of detail the devs put into the environment is amazing! I'm so looking forward to this!
Hello, new subscriber here!
I've been watching you on and off for a while (God of War, Last of Us, Detroit) and more consistently now with your Batman odyssey. And I will say, you have captivated me. You are so driven in your gaming and so lighthearted that its incredibly infectious. Your complete and utterly unapologetic dedication to completionism is a rare sight to see among full-length letsplayers. Every game with you I feel is a journey of immersion and revelation, especially so with this Batman odyssey. I look forward to this epic finale, to follow it in real time with you. Cheers Kasta!
Your excitement is contagious! Thank you for sharing it with us! I got goosebumps a few times throughout the video and sat here with a wide smile almost the entire time. Thank you for this!
Im so hyped. This has what everything has been leading up to. Also, I'm so glad you actually like the Riddler and Scarecrow as villains, and can appreciate them. A lot of people get really annoyed by the Riddler specifically, I can sort of understand why but the entire point of his character is to be somewhat annoying. And some people have said scarecrow was a weak villain choice for the ending, but to me he's one of the single best and most interesting batman villain with how he views fear.
Also hopefully you play the injustice series, it's so awesome and it just shows how bigger DC is besides just Batman!
I am surprised there aren’t more requests for these games. It’s usually such a popular request.
@@yannym4605 Yea i am as well, both games are literally in most people's top 5 fav superhero games list, i dont get it honestly lol.
If you want another book to read then read Arkham Asylum: A Serious House On Serious Earth. You learn more about Amadeus Arkham and you learn more about the story that was in Arkham Asylum when you had to decipher his messages
It brings me joy to see someone love and adore gaming so much. Batman especially holds a special place in my heart because I love the dark knight trilogy so much.
There are so many nitty gritty details sprinkled throughout every corner of Gotham here, that you’re gonna be in for a sensory and world building overload, but in the best way possible lol. In terms of feeling like you’re fully immersed in the Batman universe and Gotham, Arkham Knight undefeated in my eyes.
Just watch out for the… Scares, it is set during Halloween after all!
You are fangirling throughout all of this, and I am loving every second of it.
i like how you read everything lol. I would just knock them out and read it later
Waiting for the Spider-Man 2 playthrough!!!
Ikr it's been almost a year since she's play Miles Morales.
I enjoy playing this game so much although it's bittersweet after the loss of Kevin Conroy. I'm just glad his character and voice are immortalized in things like this.
Kat, I just want to say watching your videos on Asylum and City made me go back and replay Arkham Knight myself to finally pop that platinum trophy.
Same here.
You had me laughing when you said, this game looks most realistic and Batman doesn’t look like he’s had testosterone replacement therapy 🤣🤣
I love all of the Arkham games, but this one is by far my favorite of the series. Can’t wait to watch all the videos of your playthrough for it! 😬
so glad u started it! the ending is AMAZING hope u enjoy the rest of the game! here's a tip, try shooting the purple spots on the tanks to instantly take them down (in the batmobile ofc)
Feel free to please take your time with this game. The amount of details and dialogue in this is simply amazing
Actually you can hear Talia evidence description if you check it out once more.
Also that guard heard how we broke glass with first Riddler trophy which was always funny for me
Best looking rain effects in video game history.
@18:21 Batgirl: A Matter of Family DLC
47:09 this game takes place in Gotham City Arkham City took place in Arkham City.
This is gonna be fun I’ve loved your play through of the Arkham series. Now u get to live out one of the greatest Batman stories ever told.
time for 10 hours of riddler this is where the fun begins
Seeing you start this installment of Batman finally gave me the push to actually play it myself. I've owned the game forever, but I put it off initially due to the bugs and issues it had a launch, and then waiting for a better GPU. So nice to be able to play this with all settings maxed on an ultrawide. Going to take me a while to catch up to you, but excited to finally be able to follow along with your playthrough.
I'm so excited for this playthrough. This playthrough is going to be amazing. ❤
32:54 I had never thought of this as like something that could affect crime statistics, but like… yeah, the safest Gotham would be is the interim between break outs of supervillains from Arkham and Blackgate for *obvious* reasons, but I never thought about how drastic that difference might be. Gotham’s crime rate could be like upstate New York for a month before suddenly shifting into Gary, Indiana levels of fucked up because Killer Moth left his car keys in the bank vault and Batman’s gone for fifteen minutes.
Rip Kevin Conroy
Love your attention to detail! I've played through the game a few times and never noticed all those posters in the diner. There's a lot of easter eggs in those!
1:11:55 -- I actually DON'T think she always says that. Sorry Maggie 🙂
Just to give you a heads up Kastaclysm, BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT is no joke. It's very ambitious, dark and incredibly unbelievable. You're going up against a new enemy who's assembled an army 🪖 called Militia. And also, this game was before Batman Arkham City!!! Good luck
This game isn’t before City at all, it’s after
@@Recklessvagabond636 That that's what I thought too! It confused me 😅
I had to put my dog down yesterday suddenly.. & I need things to take my mind off this pain ; so playing through this game again with you will help me out a lot 🙏🏾
This game's graphics alone are way ahead of their time. Seriously, modern games somehow look worse than this game, and it's so satisfying to just stand still and look around the city, with how living it feels
A good art style often helps a game stay looking good longer than the games with the most cutting edge graphics
@@JustinWO-31This game doesn't really have an art style though, it just has cutting edge graphics. These Rocksteady devs were magical
I highly recommend playing through the season of infamy dlc and the arkham episodes after you get done with the main story
1:38:15 Going over every area with a fine tooth comb...until you get to the one you were told to visit.
Don't forget to complete the Riddler side mission by collecting all the trophies and solving every riddle, plus the DLC missions to get the full 120% Knightfall protocol ending. 😁👍
The attention to detail in this game is insane. It's a shame they stopped making Arkham games after this.
You can set the control for the Batmobile to be in toggle mode for Battle mode switch, rather than holding down a button on the controller.
One major detail I love about this game, if you look at the thugs after beating them, you can see the Bruises and marks from battle!
This game's cast is amazing. Kevin Conroy as Batman needs no introduction. But you may also recognize Johnathan Banks (Mike Ehrmantraut from Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul) as Commissioner Gordon, and John Noble (Denethor from Lord of the Rings) as Scarecrow. All brilliant performances.
This game still looks amazing for its age, it would be crazy if next year RockSteady released a remaster of Arkham Knight for its 10th anniversary (and any planned dlc that was originally cut or cancelled for various reasons, but that's just me being hopeful). I love your reaction when you see 243 Riddler challenges, most people who see that can feel their souls being crushed but you reacted like your favorite team just won the game. Looking forward to see how your personal Riddler Wars with your arch-nemesis plays out and your experience with the story.
Scarecrow has been my favorite Gotham villain since seeing him in the Christian Bale movies played by one of favorite actors, making him the main villain was def the cherry on top
I replayes Asylum and played City and Knight for the first time last year. Loved all 3 games.
Knight does have it's issues but for the most part it's a great game and is a good ending for the Arkham series.
I was waiting for this, I absolutely adore this game and it’s atmosphere.
You can get Batman's equipment out of the evidence room!
My favorite game of all time. Waited so long for this
This was great. Can't wait for the next episode.
I LOVE how excited you are about this game!! This is my favorite of the Arkham games, just everything about it is so good. Please definitely take your time with it, explore it all, there's SO much to find and have fun with! You're in for a treat with this one!!
As for other things to watch to get more from the franchise, I saw some people mention Batman the Animated Series, and I agree, it's one of the best things in Batman media to watch (and it has Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill as Batman and Joker!). And after you finish this game, Under the Red Hood is a fantastic movie. Batman has some pretty great animated films!
one of my favorite games of all time, I hope you enjoy this work of art to the fullest.
Although City was my personal favorite, I genuinely loved this game I never understood the hate that it got. Gameplay and graphics were unbelievable and the parts some people found tedious, I always found fun
Let’s gooo!!!! I am excited to see your gameplay.
You can change the batmobile's controls so the battle mode is toggled instead of having to hold down the trigger. I prefer those controls much better as it frees up the left trigger to apply brakes.
