Scarecrow was so giggly in Asylum, like he was a kid in a candy store. It's crazy when you realize that it's the same guy in Arkham Knight. The incident with Croc truly changed him

[@TheOneManWhoBeatYou]

Including his accent

[@sarahhackworth6531]

Indeed. Scarecrow definitely became a little more mellow after his near death experience. He truly experienced fear for himself and what it felt like. Also proven when he was injected with his own toxin.

[@RacingSnails64]

Definitely. As much as I love what John Noble did, I do miss this version of Scarecrow and wish he got to come back for Knight given he was there at the start. I miss his maniacal laughter. I don't think it would make sense with the official timeline, but I pretend that age explains why Crane sounds and acts so different in Knight, not to mention all his potential injuries. Granted it's really just a retcon because they wanted a different actor. I mean Gordon has a different VA in literally each game for no discernable reason lol.

[@basedbattledroid3507]

Yeah my brother and I had rented it from Blockbuster and we had to return it the next day, and we absolutely freaked out when the game glitched because we thought we broke it, the fear was real.

[@2eto7698]

It still gets me

[@TheRealStorman]

Played this as a young teenager and didn't know too much about batman (outside some of the tv show that ran a few years before this came out). I had no idea about scarcrow, so that first scene where you're introduced to him and Gordon seems dead has stuck with me more than most gaming moments. Truly terrifying

[@garrettjackson1451]

Me too back them in Lego Batman I thought he was just some goofy bad guy and I didn’t know much about Batman at the time I was playing but after playing this game I know a lot more about Batman and his villains and how dangerous they are, especially scarecrow.

[@ΑχιλλεαςΒαϊτσης-χ2ω]

I believe every one of those three Scarecrow nightmares shows Batman's greatest fears: 1. In the first nightmare, we can see Batman's fear of not managing to save his friend Gordon in time. Batman fights crime because he considers his duty to make sure no one else is going to suffer the way he did when he lost his parents. The scene with the talking corpses shows his fear of failing any time he fights and letting down his parents. 2. In the second nightmare, we dig even deeply. Though Batman sees again his parents, this is a moment he re-lives the trauma that changed him. He feels the pain, the injustice, his desire of having his family back. He secretly wishes he could overwrite what happened then, and had his parents now. 3. The third and worst nightmare shows Batman's deepest fear; Batman knows just how extreme his means of fighting crime are. He is afraid that one day he will become just like the lunatics he defies. Joker himself says they both are crazy, so Batman shouldn't fight him but join him. All those nightmare Batmen are Batman's visions of his possible future if he ever lets insanity eat his mind away.

[@somethingofascientist5764]

Excellent breakdown.

[@nickben2321]

Indeed. Perfect breakdown of Batman’s fears in the nightmare sequences. Great game. Pity this was never made into a movie. The game has more depth in exploring the psyche of Batman.

[@jj_grabes]

I especially love your breakdown of the third. I've run into a lot of people who think Batman's oblivious to the extremes he takes to fight crime when he's anything but that. It's one of the reasons why he doesn't kill his enemies. He's afraid of losing control altogether, so he needs to limit himself.

[@neo-warkid4edwards222]

there's also more to the third nightmare, his allies captured and his enemies learning and exposing his identity, a fear that actually comes to pass at the end of Arkham Knight. by Scarecrow himself no less.

[@ivanmatijevic2439]

And third Nightmare at the very start also shows *your* biggest fear. Game suddenly crashing and having to play everything from the start.

[@00FMklary]

There’s a small detail throughout the game hinting when the Scarecrow bits were coming up. In the elevator, a wavy gas appears and Batman starts coughing. This happens many times before you encounter Scarecrow so I guess that’s one way to poison someone. Also in the first bit, after opening the vent, you can notice that when he blinks his eyes turn red.

[@GW_01]

You can see the gas spraying out the pipes and Batman coughs when you leave the library

[@masonminor177]

I love these. They are very creative!

[@DorianMichaelsIII]

I agree-- I think the *most* creative thing was how they gave Batman glowing red eyes (first noticeable around 2:20 or so, when the camera zooms in on them while he's prying off the grate); that, to me, served as a sign to the audience that SOMETHING is definitely hinky, but the audience doesn't yet know exactly WHAT (though particularly astute viewers might, correctly, guess, than if Scarecrow hasn't dosed Batman with his fear toxin, that the not so good Doctor has SOMETHING to do with what is going on). An even more subtle hint is that Batman *coughs* (he NEVER does that, ANYWHERE ELSE in the game) while in the elevator (a tip that that is probably when he started getting exposed to the fear gas). People well versed in Bat-lore probably have deduced what has likely happened by then, but its the red eyes that seal it; SOMETHING is wrong, and though Batman hasn't yet realized it yet (he can't see his own eyes, but the audience can; plus its likely his eyes aren't *actually* glowing, so Batman looking in a reflective surface and seeing them is out; the eyes is a nod to the audience, not him) the *audience* does. It's a beautiful irony; we are waiting for *Batman* to get the hint about what is going on around him, while The World's Greatest Detective, is (at least at the beginning...seemingly) still blissfully ignorant; though, when he calls Oracle to tell her that her father has "died", and he gets a 'number disconnected' message, he probably figured out something's up.

explains why the Bat signal is how Batman breaks free from the toxin's effects. it's a manifestation of Batman's willpower and a symbol of hope for gotham. even Scarecrow came to that conclusion in Arkham Knight Scarecrow: how can the world know fear, true dread, when it has you? a stalwart knight, ever ready to slay monsters. Fear isn't pure biology, batman, it's more than instinct. True fear is the absence of hope, and hope is the spread wings of a bat, shining on the clouds.

Those voices at 11:18 just made me respect Jim Gordon a whole lot more than I already did, he's too good for Gotham.

[@l_rob420]

We need a Scarecrow like this in a movie

[@adamH.1]

NO WE NEED BLACK MASK IN MOVIE

[@matthewgudino4436]

17:02 I see you, Batman

[@DiffuseMoose]

To this day, these encounters are the number one thing I remember from Arkham Asylum. I could seriously play a full action/survival horror game involving Batman and this version of the Scarecrow.

[@johnnycage9656]

You know Scarecrow is screwed when he mocks Bruce’s parent’s death

[@nicktroisi6347]

Aside from Killer Croc, Scarecrow was easily one of the scariest parts of the game

[@samanthakelly718]

I love how fittingly morbid this is. Kinda reminds me of Statesville Haunted Prison. It makes me wish there was a haunted house themed after Batman villains.

[@Kyle-cx9te]

The attention to detail in these scenes was unbelievable

serial killer you mean the system that everybody buys more than Xbox and right below PC

[@339gabriel]

The mind games and hallucinations is what makes the Arkham series so unique!!

[@NerdyMatt]

This might just be my personal favorite version of scarecrow.

[@Sasquatch33]

Everyone's freaking out about God of War Ragnaroks' fake death scene with Thor. But everyone forgets this game was one of the first to do it at 20:35.

[@monstermastergodzilla6813]

I met Dino Andrade at Dragon Con. He's very nice and awesome. He saw me in my Riddler cosplay and yelled "Hey, Riddler! It's me, Scarecrow!".

[@MILDMONSTER1234]

That’s awesome

Neither do I. I also don't remember 3:08 or 6:08

Crazygamer12671 look at when this was uploaded

[@MecTecher]

Bit late but it's the PC version with Nvidia PhysX enabled. It adds extra particles and objects and stuff.

[@TheCornhole55]

THIS IS DEFINITELY NIGHTMARE FUEL ⛽️ man my hearts pumping all of those nightmare sequences are terrifying and I love ❤️ it! All I know is I wanna see an on screen ScareCrow that is just like this one funny, evil, witty, scary etc.

[@Arman-ch5vi]

Thing that i love about batman, and all other villians is they all suffered alot from childhood or bad things happened to them, but batman was the only one who didnt let his bad past make him a bad person, he didnt let the evil of the world stop him from channeling his energy into good

[@michaelm7316]

Believe me or not this scarecrow is scarier than Arkham knight

[@luisn.pietanesi255]

100% Agree with you on that. In Arkham Knight, all we got to see was just him "behind the scenes" and not doing much of anything except giving speeches to Batman on the city's loudspeaker about his big plans for Gotham and all that throughout the whole entire game. The worst part, is that we only get to come face to face with Scarecrow only 3 times throughout the whole entire game and not once did we have to deal with his fear toxin induced hallucinations (and no that part with the Joker at the end does not count for me) or even fight him at all. All we get to see is Batman "confront" him in cutscenes and that's about it. For a game that said it was about Scarecrow trying be the one to take down Batman, Arkham Knight really missed that mark by a longshot.

[@JaMann6507]

Luis N. Pietanesi probably because scarecrow learned his lesson on getting near Batman with a weaker toxin

[@amir.music2005]

In Arkham Knight, he's plain evil. Here he's creepy.

[@honarpalani7327]

“Use the middle stick to dodge Joker’s gun fire” WOW THATS HELPFUL Edit: I totally forgot to say that I didn’t know this game had a lot of detail on the PC: Debris flying in the air following-up to some creepy screeches.

[@Aggient]

I think all the Scarecrow parts in this game are pure genius atmosphere and gameplay wise as well.

[@maxlunser5804]

I don’t know why but the second battle was always my favorite

[@RealHajimeHinata]

Max The Fabulous same

[@Jacob-jg6cd]

I really wish Arkham Knight just focused on Scarecrow instead of adding “you know who” to the game. He is one of the most underrated members of the Batman Rogues Gallery.

[@jeremy8398]

I remember when I was little and I watched my brothers play one of these parts of the game and after I did I went to bed but the thing was I had a really creepy night mare about one of the scare crow scenes in this game. This was about 6 years ago

[@IanIshmael-ut4pj]

This is why I prefer Arkham Asylum over Arkham City.

[@plushluigi7417]

I love how this game doesnt just fuck with batman, but also the player.

Scarecrow seriously needs His own Movie 🍿🎬👍

[@artmanrom]

Christopher Nolan should have put that in his trilogy and forced the viewers to try to pass those challenges till they succeed.

Very well done!
