Creating my own “ARKHAM WORLD” (UE5 Pitch)

This week I started creating my own video game I’ll give you a little bit of backstory my favorite game series is the Batman Arkham series personally my favorite game and it is Arkham knight I’ve been playing this game since the day it was released. So in this video I want to announce or pitch the game I’m going to be making just kind of plant the flag I’m going to use this video as a starting point.
So before I move any further I just wanna clarify that I will not be selling this making any money off of this all the rights are owned by rocksteady and Warner Brothers.
so far my progress for week number one hasn’t been bad I’m currently in the process of ripping Batman‘s assets from Arkham Knight and putting him into UE5. I’m just excited to be starting this project and making this video. I’m not sure how much time I’ll be putting into this on a daily basis it could mean I’d mess around with this twice a week so if there’s anybody that sees us video it has knowledge on this kind of thing and if you really like the idea please reach out to me maybe we can work together on the project keep in mind that there’s no money involved this is just a passion project.

Perhaps the main character could be the leader of the mutants gang in Gotham like from the dark knight returns. the story being about the mutant takeover, with the gang gradually getting bigger and holding more of an influence over the criminal underworld as the story progresses until the superhero’s and bat family have to put a stop to it, in the end leading to a boss battle with Batman as the finale.

Its really interesting, like even with a huge backlog of games I still go back and replay the same games over and over

[@Ara24_td]

Bro I love your ambition but game development isn't that easy, especially when you're alone and don't have any experience prior, I suggest if possible, getting someone else or more involved in the project that have the same level of passion that you do. Don't get me wrong I'm fully supportive I'm not trying to hate or nothing, I just hope you don't get discoureged when you start facing technical hurdles. Wish you the best, good luck 🙏

Yeah this game sounds great and all, but I’ve got a hundred different video game ideas that are just as fleshed out as this one just sitting in the back of my mind, and I would imagine that a lot of gamers out there could say the same. To say that game development is hard would be a massive understatement, and it’s something that any aspiring developer needs to remember.

I fully support this. I recommend that you give spotlight to the other dark knights too like Robin and Nightwing. Make them powerful. Also, we need our own gotham knights storyline here. I created a gotham knights scenario where the knights are Azrael, Robin, Redhood, Nightwing and Batgirl. I really hope this ends up playing well because we do need more Arkham stories man.

[@hannescordes]

I'm definetely in on that one! I've spent the past few years with learning and producing my own (partly batman themed) orchestral arrangements and this arkham-gang-type game is an idea I've also had for quite a while :)

[@Tyler-cd7el]

I would absolutely buy and play this game. The idea sounds great and would definitely be fun. Another thing is that you could put Red Hood, Nightwing, and Batgirl (maybe??) along with batman to try to apprehend you. (Since Red Hood kills, you could have a game over if he gets you)

[@cup.of.joe3358]

[@ghostlegit]

[@ghostlegit]

@GamesTricker yes u could

[@sooperdude22]

Maybe a hardcore mode similar to Origins' _"I Am The Night"_ Mode? I'm thinking something like a "three strikes" rule, where if you cause enough mayhem for the heroes to come after you twice, then Red Hood will start gunning for you on the third strike? And if he manages to kill you, then you have to restart the story all the way from the beginning?

[@londonbatehead2438]

I don’t think having Batgirl and Red Hood at the same time would fit with the timeline

[@derrickquintanilla7378]

I have no idea how this'll turn out, but the idea alone is just really fascinating. I wish you the best of luck in this endeavor, but as a piece of advice, attempt to find other mod creators that also would like to contribute to the project. Many hands make light work

[@Maclennon]

I have been I’ve been a game developer for a while now, I’ve worked in a couple big studios and released many games by myself at this point. I’ll give you probably the only thing I wish I learned early on. Don’t overwork yourself. I know this is a problem in other mediums but I think it’s probably the hardest thing to grapple with while making a game. There are so many things to do to finish any project of any size and all of them sound exciting and (at least for me) I can’t wait to start it all. But you are one person, you have to take things one at a time starting with the gameplay. Don’t even think about modeling, sound, lighting, or anything else unless it is integral to the core gameplay. Other than that, you seem really passionate about this project and I hope to see you succeed.

[@Boba_Fett_Bounty_Hunter]

Omg. That’s something I’ve wanted for so long, ever since the “Batman” jumpscare when you play as Jim Gordon in Arkham Knight. Since that very scary jumpscare, I’ve felt bad for the thugs who just want money, and had to turn to a life of crime instead of being homeless. And seeing your buddies just disappear when they were behind you a second ago, you know that Batman is here. They’ve seen, and most likely, felt him (his punches especially) many times. And since that jumpscare, I learned how truly scary he is. So I would love if the Batman part of this game would tap a bit into horror. I hate horror games, but would think that Batman would be worth playing the game. And finally a game where you play as someone not that important instead of one of the main characters! The idea is truly unique. Trust me, if I had money to spare, I would’ve done whatever I can to help. If I had any idea HOW to make a game, I would’ve loved to get in touch to help. And if in however many years it actually comes out, you know I’m buying it. Not to help a small (compared to many others) KZbin channel, but seriously just because a game where you’re AGAINST a main character is what I’ve wanted for years, and as I said, more recently, against Batman. So yeah, just add that “horror” factor when Batman is after you, and it would be even better than some Arkham games. Just one question. Will the Batman thing be like the stars in GTA? (He comes when you break too many laws or something) Edit: I had no idea my message was this long 😳

[@S.I.D743]

Start up a page to get funding and everyone will support you with this. We need another GOOD arkham game

[@propane_salesman]

The wanted system could work like this: -Tier 1: Chased by a small handful of police cars. Can be fought and escaped with relative ease, but still increases your wanted level if you fight, like GTA. -Tier 2: A large amount of police and a SWAT team is dispatched to stop you. Can still be outrun, but are much harder to fight. -Tier 3: The Batsignal can be seen in the sky. Batman is now after you. He'd be a lot like Mr. X from Resident Evil. If you damage him enough, he'll use a smoke pellet and escape. If you're in a car chase, he'll pursue you in The Batmobile.

[@MJ-mu3kb]

I had an idea like this once except it takes place in Arkham city. You're basically a random guy who gets put in there as a prisoner and its basically a survival horror game with a tone and gameplay very similar to Condemned. You end up becoming something of an urban legend throughout the game for surviving and killing many other prisoners who come after you. Theres also many different customization options and bits of armor and weapons you can wear over your prison jump suit, and you basically end the game as a DC universe version of Frank Castle.

Every villain will have a different storyline and they're purpose will be to escape the asylum and cause a breakout!

If it have to give you any feedback based on the pitch, I'd say that the idea of doing missions for each villains gang and then rising up the ranks MIGHT get repetitive, because like you mentioned this was a little inspired by Mafia 3 which suffered from a similar issue.

The idea is insane, and I like the idea of the main character being a criminal. Obviously, there will be missions where you will be robbing banks and taking over certain areas in the map. So my idea is there will be some missions where you will face other gangs and some missions where you will be hunted down by Batman. The Batman hunting part better be a horror style gameplay.

[@LeumasReven]

It has potential, one thing I think could be worked on a bit more is the story. I like the overall idea of bringing down crime bosses and whatnot, but what if instead of going through missions to enter a major gang you start off with a small operation and as you complete missions in a specific starting region you gain notoriety and grow into an organization eventually drawing the attention of that region's major villain. Then that villain would challenge the player in some way and upon player victory the villain would join and give the player an ability to use in later missions as well as joining in later missions. The ultimate goal and the end result would be the same. One other thing could be instead of "oh you failed, game over" the player gets arrested and thrown in Arkham Asylum where they have to create a breakout scenario to get back to the city. As for Batman, what if he is like a super boss that has a chance of appearing every mission (percent would vary based on the mission itself and if batman recently appeared in the mission prior) and each time you defeat him he gains a new ability while the player gets some sort of reward for beating him. (Even this isn't a complete idea and it is in no way a demand of what your game should be, this is only a suggestion and mainly just to write out my own thoughts and if you like some or all of the details feel free to implement them in any way you see fit.)😁 I always love to see people trying to make video games and I wish you luck because video games are so hard to make, but of course when they turn out well they are just as rewarding.👍

Is there a lore reason of this being a perfect pitch?

[@chillpanda27]

Why hasnt Rocksteady thought of doing this? Are they stupid?

Nothing but respect for you man hope it turns out well, pace yourself well and remember to enjoy yourself.

Holy fuck bro this might be one of the best idea for a Batman game. I really can’t wait to see your progress, your passion is better than all of us 💀
