I get that Arkham Origins was far from being the best is the series but lets be honest Batman vs Deathstroke is one of the best boss fights in Arkham games

[@InvitalPulse]

Origins was good, it just had some technical issues (especially on PC) and didn't bring anything new to the series.

[@DeutscherDummer]

@@InvitalPulse In a way I preferred it to Arkham Knight, mostly because the latter's story had less surprises for me and the game was incredibly bloated with collectibles and samey side-objectives, even worse so than the others. And as a completionist, you know I needed to collect them all...

I will still argue to this day that this games sequel, Arkham City, is one of the best gaming experiences you can get to this date. The amount of content that was in that game was just right, not too much but not too little, and the way that it all freely flowed together was just beautiful in how it was designed.

I love how in the beginning Batman says something about how he’s going to catch the joker less than five minutes after letting him get away. It’s almost like he did it on purpose because he likes chasing the joker and didn’t want to lose his arch enemy

Arkham Asylum is an incredible, iconic game, and yet Mark Hamill still manages carry it. What a legend.

[@canis_machina7280]

I was so confused when I first played Arkham Asylum during the first of Joker's Titan Test Subjects. It turns out it was a reference to the first Titan in the Batman comic series before Bane. The original test subject died of a Heart attack during battle only a few moments into the fight. Really a brutal scene to see a heavyweight boxing champion kidnapped from his family, experimented on, refusing to fight at first with the shred of humanity he had left, and then crying out in pain as he died all because of the Joker's major weakness being his physical strength (Or lack there of) and being unable to take Bruce on in a fair fight. I know it's just a comic, but DC had an incredibly dark phase in the past which has recently resurfaced. In all honesty I hate it when people's personalities revolve around these characters, but it's nice to see a comic company with writers that are not afraid to hint at mental illness and really tragic events that sometimes go way too far. It's horribly dark, but so refreshing to see in an age where you have to walk on eggshells when discussing death, mental illness, etc. The famous writer, artist, and screen director for DC, Frank Miller, said it best: "DC comic's have no heroes, only Villains who know of their wickedness and those who don't yet."

[@super3vil710]

Batman be like: Killing? No. Smashing someone's head into a cinder block causing life long damage and sending them into a crippling debt thanks to the hospital bills, and leaving their nearly dead bodies out on the street which may lead to them being run over, and then sending them to an asylum made for the criminally insane just because they jaywalked? Yes.

Arkham Origins is actually my favorite Batman game. The amazing Christmas environment makes me comeback every year and play it again. The amazing story about a broken man alone in Christmas fighting crime while people are at home enjoying Christmas with their family. The family he doesn't have.

The opening to this game always confused the shit out of me. So you’re telling me you’re going to send in Joker with a massive group of guards but the moment you’re going to actually put him in lock up you send one guard in with him? Also their reasoning for not sending in Batman makes no sense. “You’ll upset the inmates.” Who the fuck cares it’s fucking Batman he can protect himself and other people if it comes down to it. Also the inmates are locked up so who cares if he upsets them. With this kind’ve security no wonder so many people break out of Arkham Asylum constantly 🤣.
