Batman Arkham Asylum's Best Forgotten Feature

[@Gandalf_the_Gold]

This game has my favorite joker Batman dynamic ever. Kevin conroy and mark hamil absolutely killed it in this game such perfect performances from both of them

[@Dylanisa_BasketCase]

RIP Kevin Conroy. The definitive BATMAN

[@DegenerateJay]

He was and will always be an absolute legend and, even more importantly, a kind man.

[@Dylanisa_BasketCase]

@@DegenerateJay I was fortunate enough to meet him in 2017

[@Gandalf_the_Gold]

@@Dylanisa_BasketCase that’s awesome

[@hughjassman1227]

This game did so much right. With how well Rocksteady wrote joker I just wish they had not gone the route of the Titan Joker boss stuff.

[@themarlboromandalorian]

Yeah that was kinda stupid.

[@reloadedspade176]

At least it set up the Arkham city storyline well

[@unknogne]

@@reloadedspade176yea but at the same time that was kinda like the crackrock of arkham city, everybody wanted that shi

[@charlesmeniru5082]

@@themarlboromandaloriannot stupid at all, how else would you want joker to fight Batman head on??

[@sid98geek]

What I missed about _Asylum_ is that the Fear Toxin hallucinations were actually scary and even broke the fourth wall (all inspired by the _Eternal Darkness_ game). _Knight_ , despite being Scarecrow's grand return, did not have good hallucination sequences (except that final one where you play as the Joker in a first-person perspective).

[@itzjakedawg]

Yeah that was a great addition to the game the scarecrow boss fights in this game are some of my favorite from the trilogy.

[@DegenerateJay]

That’s probably one of the biggest let downs of Batman Arkham Knight. Scarecrow had a lot of good monologues over the television system in Gotham in that game, but there weren’t very many good hallucinations that were actually scary. I thought they did a good job, tying the joker in as a psychological threat and I really like that, but they focused so much on the psychological threat of joker overriding Bruce Wayne’s personality that they didn’t focus very much on those hallucinations actually being startling or unsettling.

[@mistertwister2000]

Scarecrow in general just gets shafted in anything he’s in. He always boils down to a dude making puns and making people afraid, when he has the potential to let us explore the psyche of basically every character he interacts with.

[@braydenpage1808]

That morbid humor is exactly why Mark Hamill's Joker is my favorite iteration of the character. He's scary sometimes, but is hilarious in a super dark way too.

[@gothamwarrior]

The bomb’s payload is exposed. I can use the power winch to trigger a controlled expIosion.

[@empty_melodies]

You’re here too!?

[@gothamwarrior]

@@empty_melodies That’s right. Help the power winch army get to 100 subs by the end of the summer.

[@empty_melodies]

@@gothamwarrior Yes sir 🫡

[@DegenerateJay]

You just ran out of time.

[@flingymingy]

People forget how much weightier Asylum was, the enemies didn’t feel like boneless rag dolls as much in this game. Arkham Knight I love but the enemies feel like balloons and the clipping is insane, which is a shame. Asylum is still so goddamn polished.

[@darkknight11311]

What I love about asylum that feels lost in the other games is the fact that asylum just drops you in the world of Batman. You're rewarded for being a fan because the style makes it feel like you're in the world, playing as batman. Once Arkham became it's own universe, part of that was lost

[@arkhamgabiii]

well ofc it would be lost as the series went on but i get ur point.

[@AngiesResonance]

Also if you don't look at the Joker, he actually changes his stance. What's really creepy about this is that sometimes there would be multiple jokers, and some of them wil change their stance at the same time.

[@tkfu9436]

I was about to post about this but glad I saw you had beat me to it.. lol

[@galaxy_fox1124]

the joker tv head hall scared the hell outa me when i was little i go in to the hall and i lave my room to do something i come back all i hear is jokers laugh it scared the hell outa me

[@brxndxn29]

I really liked that in city and knight, the random thugs throughout the world had great and real conversations

[@onceortwiceooh]

I liked to explore the world when I played and when I first visited the visitor center I thought it was so different from the rest of the game with the different perspective. I found the first experience interesting so when I revisited out of curiosity shortly after and saw he would say new dialogue, it was entertaining and I made it my quick side quest after each main objective completed I’d go visit to see what he’d say next. I really liked it

[@ShadowBonnieVincent]

I like the fact that the joker is actually trying to be serious half the time and just absolutely nuts the other half, I feel like it stays true to the joker's personality. (8:19)

[@Dylanisa_BasketCase]

4:40 that's an understatement

[@jangofett4875]

I remember these, never bothered with them on my first playthrough but I thought they were awesome when I replayed. Probably gonna rewatch your Arkham playthroughs soon too.

[@callumwebb4927]

I never thought to go in the first time because Joker said he’d have Harley kill Gordon, so I just assumed it would be a game over. Then by the time I rescued Jim, I just forgot about it and didn’t think to go in.

[@andson02]

The intro of this game was allready iconic for me, with a captured Joker 'clowning'; "stand back, fool! I've got a bomb" 😂

[@matthewsmith7059]

Man I love the arkham universe and how even to this day there are still details to talk about . Great channel too , great video 👌

[@Blundabus1337]

I actually did go into the visitor center once, and left after the screen with joker started talking because I hated the first person point of view and it felt really unsettling.

[@LILGHETTI]

Keep up the awesome work jay & jill 🔥

[@notebgames5414]

When you are talking to the Joker if you look to your back then look back at Joker he will change pose some times

[@TheAmazingSpiderGuy_99]

The score in these clips is more erie than most horror games. Great video by the way!

[@thequestionable1413]

Great job putting this discussion together I loved it. 😊

[@leonhuckstep472]

I appreciate this guy still talking about my favourite game series.

[@tylerriggs7989]

As a huge Indiana Jones fan, I can't wait to hear you talk about the series on your channel. Also, good video.

[@skxlter5747]

This game lacked content to keep you playing, if only they added dlc

[@MrJoNeS_88]

Best interaction for me is when the woman calls up for her husband and joker answers instead in a funny voice it’s hilarious

[@Dylanisa_BasketCase]

I love The Arkham Games

[@big99gamer18]

Hey Jay! Any chance we could get a review on the Splinter cell series!? You've mentioned them a decent number of times, curious to hear what u think 🙏

[@DegenerateJay]

I’d like to make videos on them in the future!

[@JacobHole]

Hey Jay do you think that eventually you will play the dead space remake on your let’s play channel

[@buneyecat]

Love the videos

[@inikharjo]

Been a sub since 2020 because your Arkham videos are spectacular and I just got around to rewatching your play throughs for all the games, hopefully soon you and T do knight since you were saying you guys wanted to play through all the games! Keep up the good work

[@andrewbrown9981]

The thing I liked about this series it has the homoeroticism of the Batman Joker realationship.

[@darthbigred22]

It's weird how great these games were and how they refuse to make any more like them since. I would like to see Rocksteady try to do Supes, I dunno how you make that game but dammit they pretty much by the end made a Batman freeroam which only Lego Batman 2 had did before that.

[@Маккензи002]

My favourite game.

[@brendiesel386]

For me I always chose never to go back here because I never wanted to backtrack that far One playthru I came back here every single opportunity that presented itself But… I got bored because there was one part where I was halfway thru a dungeon and didn’t want to go allllll the way back just for some dialogue

[@TheJotaroKujo]

Long live Arkham Alsume

[@kaleblam5084]

You are right you ARE the most masculine man I know 😂😂😂

[@nexrex3042]

Is there going to be a review of the 1986 Transformers movie?

[@DegenerateJay]

Eventually, yes! We are starting with the review of bumblebee which I’m in the process of making right now!

[@greasygod93]

I’ve heard some of them but I didn’t realize there was numerous ones

[@mohamedbinfraih635]

Thumbnail reminds me of skibidi toilet Tv men

[@the.nerd58]

Hey Jay can you talk about how awful Return to Arkham Arkham City runs on Base Ps4 I recently played it and when you explore the city it has so much stuttering and fps drops.

[@WhatInTheDeepestShadeOfFeck]

Always mind your surroundings! Looking forward to the MGS videos

[@DegenerateJay]

Thank you very much! I’m a little nervous they’re not going to do very well on the channel but I’m hoping I can gain some audience members too who really like those games and also the people like you who have said that they are looking forward to them/will support them mean a lot to me! Thank you! 🔥

[@WhatInTheDeepestShadeOfFeck]

@@DegenerateJay I love MGS 1 and 4, and there's a lot of love for 3 too. MGS 2 was ok, but Raiden was difficult to like in that game. I'm looking forward to revisiting any or all of those through your eyes, and I'm sure that plenty of others are too.

[@ThePunkLoserAlcoholic6]

Red dead redemption had really good lore

[@teh_npc319]

I would love some MGS videos

[@DegenerateJay]

COMING SOON!! 🔥❤️

[@read833]

bro you make it sound like you just binge your own videos. if so, how have you not gone mad?

[@tonkaboysvr2036]

Hi

[@christianwoodward9444]

First

[@TheAnnaisHere]

I had no idea you'd get dialogue throughout the game and it not just being a one-time sort of thing. I've been playing this game for nearly 10yrs 🫠

[@DegenerateJay]

That's my favorite thing about this series is there's so many little details that I feel like I'm finding something new every time I play!
