Literally the best version of scarecrow, I feel like he doesn't get talked about much. His design is so badass
Him and New Batman Adventures are great
And the performance is so good
Scarecrow, in one night:
Tricks the bat family into believing Barbara is dead.
Manipulates Batman into betraying robin (though you could blame the joker for this too, batman is seeing the joker initially because of scarecrow.)
Manipulates Gordon into almost betraying batman, and then kidnaps him.
Submerges the entire city in fear toxin.
And literally almost accidentally creates the batman who laughs.
He may very well surpass or at the very least be on the same level as the joker in this game as to how dangerous he was.
@@thegreatynot5049 I think he surpassed Joker in that game, bro is built different
ong, in asylum he was looking like Seth from rdr1
Maybe the "number has been disconnected" fear toxin effect when Batman is under Scarecrows fear toxin in Arkham Asylum is another fear of Batman? That he had lost his grip on reality and is just make-belief pretending it all, with Barbara/Oracle never existing and none of this ever being real. That's at least how I interpret that one particular bit.
It’s also wild that I’m asylum that Batman nearly felt broke when he thought Jim died and it’s same with oracle
I love that you start branching out your content and you begin talking about my next favourite game
Agree
agree
I was so happy when he uploaded this video and about joker ❤❤❤
Arkham knight seriously underrated and imo clear of Arkham city
Underrated. Yes. Better than city tho? I’m not so sure
@@joshuaconnall4237 for me it was my first one and I put the most hours into so I just found it more enjoyable than the other Arkham games
@@Lmk2008that’s fair my favourite is origins for the same reason
Arkham City is pretty overrated i still love it but Arkham Knight is my favorite
@@joshuaconnall4237city is outdated. Knight is up to standards. Also it's a good variant compared to the 3 games.
Good to see you make a vid on one of my favorite games
Mine too. Arkham Knight is top 3 favorite games of all time for me
finger what are u doing here? Go help Kaylee with her homework
@@CynicGTAsuch a goated game
The best version of scarecrow hands down. This game made him rightfully terrifying. He also in a way kind of succeeded, he really did manage to activate the cloudburst and submerge Gotham in fear toxin, he actually would have won if it hadn't been for Ivy. And something else interesting, is Scarecrow is the only villain the game labels as "Criminal Mastermind". All the other villains just have the label "professional criminal" even the joker.
(Though I argue he should have also been labelled a criminal mastermind.)
Scarecrow is not only my favourite Arkhamverse villain but one of my favourite video game villains ever. He was already frightening in Arkham Asylum, and then Arkham Knight ramped it up even further. His way of controlling people through their fears is just peake villainy. His intelligence, deformed appearance, spine chilling voice, and sadistic personality, and the fact that he even gets under Batman's skin are also what makes him one of the greatest antagonists ever
Scarecrow did actually find a way to “end” Batman…..No wait, that was Rocksteady itself 😂. Love Arkham Knight
Sad that the writer of Arkham Asylum and Arkham City got fired we wouldve gotten a much better game even Scarecrow would've been done better.
Paul dini
I thought Paul didn't do it because he was working on other thing
Yessssssss more AK Scarecrow appreciation!! One of the best characters ever!!
By FAR the greatest Scarecrow character design of all time
While Joker works, and I understand his position, I believe Scarecrow is the next best option for Batman's nemesis.
Both masters of fear, but in different senses. Batman brings physical fear, physical damage, but Scarecrow brings psychological fear, he doesn't break your bones, but your mind.
Batman is often commended for his willpower, and Scarecrow can be the greatest test of that .
I love how rocksteady got everyone with that glitch Jumpscare
Amazing work always Cynic. I’m so happy you’re doing Arkham videos 😊❤ I really love scarecrow and he’s one of my fav Batman villains. This version of scarecrow was amazing and I’ll love to see more of this version in future films ❤❤❤❤
Arkham games the best super hero games ever yes ever. Good video bro 😎
Awesome video
I feel like Scarecrow's kind got the opposite thing of Poison Ivy where he used to be a cool idea for a character, but never really saw that full potential and was always viewed as kind of a joke, until he got much better media later on, and now most view him as one of Batman's greatest villains, and poison ivy used to be an amazing villain that reflected on Batman's obsession with their morals and justice separating them from humanity, who also used lust and her attractiveness to manipulate and hurt others to fuel her selfish goals, but now she's rarely if ever that interesting villain and now is only used as Harley's girlfriend. Kind of funny when you think about it.
In the first arkham game scarecrow wasn't that much of a threat but in the last game he was more tactical & his new outfit is more scary
Joker in a thong is my worst fear in these games 💀
OMFG you see Scarecrow's shadow AGAIN at 13:24/13:38! Damn creeper.
Great video for a great character.
There is also a Easter egg of scarecrow’s mask in City.
I remember playing asylum and city for the first time and just being totally hooked; the writing was just incredible and you were kept in suspense throughout the whole game. Games these days feel so fast and rushed, Arkham city is one of the perfect examples that a game can be maintained through a slow and suspenseful pace which keeps the player engaged. I have still never played a game that can be compared to Arkham city in terms of suspense and anticipation, maybe the closest of recent times would be RDR2 but that is set in a completely different universe with a difference emphasis; albeit some small comparisons can be made. I think nostalgia plays a large part here and affects our ability to keep our biases in check, for me; growing up with Arkham asylum & City, Knight was released several years later and simply did not have the impact on me that the earlier editions did; it was a pleasure to have grown up playing such a masterpiece of a game.
You, good sir, have earned my sub. And not only from this vid, but also your Red Dead Redemption 2 vids! Keep it up!
Hey Cynic I’ll like to know your take on Metal Gear characters particularly Big Boss’s twisted morality.
this video low key made me want to replay arkham knight, the story isn’t the greatest but the combat… and there’s tons of things i haven’t done (riddler) that i need to do
I love these games but man. I dont like the riddler. Just personal preference, don’t care for puzzles or the trophy collecting
Arkham Knight let's go
Can you do a full analysis of the Batman Arkham knight story!?!?
Hell yes!!!! Its in the works. Got a few batman projects coming actually
Great video...u right batman was tested like a mf in this game
He didn't break Batman, that's exactly why he was defeated in the end. Also the only reason his plan worked (making Batman reveal his secret identity) was because Batman was written like an idiot with no contingency plans.
One of the greatest game series of all time , I’ll play Arkham Knight over and over again.
People praise Hugo Strange so much in Arkham city. But he knew Batman's secret identity, said he'll tell everyone if Batman tries to stop him, yet did nothing the entire game. Just waited for Protocol, and got defeated.
Meanwhile Scarecrow freaking unmasked Batman by the end of the story and forever changed Arkham Batman's career! He accomplished something big!
Ra’s didn’t allow Hugo reveal his identity. Ra’s tested Hugo to defeat Batman from stopping him but Hugo failed.
Best Batman game imo. 🔥🔥🔥
Pika
Scarecrow is kinda cute
Don’t get me wrong I like his design, and he did a lot. But he didn’t break shit… He didn’t destroy Gotham. He didn’t cause anyone to betray Batman. He didn’t actually kill any of Batman’s family. He didn’t even manage to make Batman afraid like he thought he would. People keep talking like he was the one who unmasked Batman, but he wasn’t Batman turned himself in out of fear for Robin and Gordon. I’m not saying that’s a simple thing to do, but it’s really much less impressive than any of his actual goals.
I hated scarecrow in Arkham Knight. I liked him more in Arkham asylum, and I hate Arkham Knight. It's a trash sequel, and it's my least favorite Arkham game
Only thing I hated was how his face was torn. Now how am I supposed to make out with him!?
@@Octxvius_Skywxlkerr your comment is strange
Damnnnnn he did not just drop Arkham knighttttt vidddddd😂😂😂😂😂
He did way better than that horse simulator
