Some things you forgot to factor in. The game takes place in October meaning it's in the fall time meaning it gets dark out earlier, usually around 6PM and the sun comes up at 7AM. Also it's raining the whole time meaning clouds. So it could still be dark out when it's AM because it's raining.

Also the moon being so bright like it is in the game implies the sun is being reflected by the moon like it is at night.

10:56 although I agree, it would make more sense for Batman to do this mission immediately since Lucius wasn’t responding, they do add a line of dialogue if you complete the side quest after the main story. it stated that since Wayne Tower has been on lockdown, there’s been no contact to the outside world meaning that they didn’t catch the newscast revealing that Bruce Wayne is Batman. Although I will. Although I love that, they bother to add a line of dialogue to justify doing the mission later, I think it would’ve been even cooler if they completely changed the dialogue and hush no that you are Batman from the get-go

Tbh in my mind I always just imagined he showed up to talk with Jim just after sunset which my guess is around like 6-7PM and then the game ends 11-12 hours later.

[@edviza1935]

I remember realizing that the clock changes in Arkham Asylum years ago and I made it my mission that playthrough to every chance I get check the clock to see what time it was during each event in the story 😂

[@KARMA-nt1vp]

No, no what we should be talking about is how Batman was able to do everything in Arkham City (not counting side Missions) which takes place about 14 hours in one night in July. Hugo Strange constantly tells us that protocol 10 will commence in 10 hours, in America, in July when night time is about eight hours long. it’s about two hours before the first announcement of protocol 10 and then it’s about another hour after Batman stops protocol 10 when he takes on Clayface, so that’s 14 hours a night, which even if it wasn’t July is not possible because December nights are only about 10 hours long. And then you’ve got to account for all of the side missions that Batman does during Arkham City which is going to take another few hours to do everything, like how long was he captured by Mad Hatter? How long was he knocked out by Joker? How long was he doing Ra’s challenges? Everything in Arkham Asylum, I can let slide because I can see that being over the events of about six hours but Arkham City I just don’t see it. And for the love of God, I am not going to go on about how the Joker was able to build an amusement park in a hotel in a couple of hours on Christmas Eve.

[@KARMA-nt1vp]

Also I just looked the game takes place on Halloween night so October, in America the Sun rises somewhere between 6:30am and 7:10am an October Gotham just has really long nights and really short days.

[@maxdonahue210]

I think for the Hush mission the reason the dialogue doesn’t change in the endgame is because Tommy had no contact way to see what was going on outside and was basically holding Lucius the way you see him in the mission the entire time, basically banking on the receptionist to call for help and get Batman’s attention. All that to say he never would have seen the news broadcast where Batman is unmasked

[@b1ackspid3r43]

As someone else mentioned, since the game takes place during Halloween in October it would get dark outside earlier than the summer, so here’s my timeline: Scarecrow threatens Gotham at 6:00PM Takes 2 hours to evacuate the city 8:55PM Gordon calls Batman Which takes Batman till 6:00AM to stop Scarecrow With Batman doing side missions during the main mission, it’s safe to say that it takes him an hour to finish the rest of the side missions which takes him to 7:00AM which is when he activates the Knightfall Protocol So I’m total, it takes Batman 10 hours to save Gotham

[@REaDComicsau]

Actually Gotham was evacuated over 24 hours.

[@iamab0t]

bro that studio mission is like the best mission in the whole game.

[@HermitKen]

I kinda wish that as time progresses with each mission, the skybox changes slowly turning to morning. And so when the game finally ends in Knightfall Protocol, it's sunrise. All The Batman style. Unless light works differently in Gotham's side of America where 5 is still pretty dark, while here in the Philippines 5 is already a pretty bright morning.

[@arcanewyverian3061]

It really depends on the time of year, but on the east coast (where I believe Gotham is) 5am can range from the very-very brink of dawn to still pitch black out.

I hate SSKTJL as much as the next guy, but let's remember Harley is a DC human. Bruce is a DC human and survives FALLING FROM THE MOON, and also face-tanks an explosion I think in his normal possibly spandex suit or whatever. No armor. Like DC humans with NO POWERS are goddamn crazy. They aren't just "peak human" they're like 3x peak. Harley being able to lift an armored Bruce might only be like 200lbs or even less. I wouldn't be surprised if he's like a lean but shredded 180 or something. His armor probably isn't even 100lbs. He has to wear it and move in it with no major loss of movement. In fact, the lore reason for his Fear Multi-Takedowns in AK is his improved armor finally doesn't hamper his movements so much, right? So I wouldn't be surprised if it's 50lbs tops. But let's just say he's 300lbs. That is BEYOND REASONABLE for Harley to move. Let's even double all my max assumptions for Bruce's weight which puts HIM naked at 400lbs and gives him 200lbs of armor, which is INSANE with that movement speed... so 600lbs tops? Just so we're clear, I just looked up the world record women's deadlift and it's 1,600lbs. So like, are we really saying Harley can't move less than half of that?

[@DanielLCarrier]

the wierd thing is that yes the sky may be dark all the game exept for one part. the gordon flashback. when you play as jim gordon in the flashback at ace chemicals the sky is actually bright and sunny which is wierd if the game takes place between 1-10 am therefore it will make more sense for the game to happen between 9 pm when the sky starts being darker and 6 am when the sky only starts being bright tho sure the sky isnt bright in the main game but it is gotham so i guess it gets sunny later the usual

100k!!!! GO GO GO

[@snaffen1022]

the fact that the clocks move is kinda crazy

[@StupidMarioBros1Fan]

Since the clock isn't changing in real time and instead is manually set after certain Story Missions, I think the weird times aren't the result of a glitch but more an oversight by the developers. Like someone forgot to properly set the time for certain time slots. The weird jump from 9pm to 1am at the beginning feels like the developers changed their minds on what time the game should start but then missed a few timeslots. IDK, it depends on how this is actually handled like if there's a text file for what time the clocks should set to, or if the clocks use multiple animation files or something. What I do know is that 9pm to 5am or 6am makes way more sense than 1am to 10am or 11am because of how dark it is outside. I can absolutely believe Batman did everything within 9 or so hours but the sky is dark the entire game so it can't be 10 in the morning by the end of it.

[@MuchDrOrange]

I believe that Gotham, during the seasons of fall and winter, it is just always dark out no matter the time. Which would explain the time progression in the game. And also that would fit in with why its bright during the gordon flashback(because its likely summer or spring during the flashback, so it's bright out during the day).

[@canadianpumpkin7581]

Side missions are cannon across the series so those most of those larger gaps in time must be Batman doing side missions, also dlc are cannon too, so we can assume he was busy with those too.

[@GermanFFreddy]

It may be random, because of the constant reminds to 1am, so there may just be a handful of textures for the time and they just randomly draw one to display.

[@evanwirth7881]

Good video! I feel like it’s very believable that the other games can be completed in one night, I think it would make more sense for this to start at 9:00-ish and end around 6:00 like you said. Also I did not complete this game 9 hours, for the total 100% it probably took me 15-20 hours

maybe there was a glitch in development and the game normally starts at 8pm and ends at 5am right before dawn because in the arkham knight tie in comic its loosely referenced that batman stops operating at around 4:30am

[@elderliddle2733]

Funny thing: There seems to be a consistency in the inconsistency. The time keeps shift back to 1:09 am, the time right after ACE Chamicals. The time when Joker re-emerges in Batman’s psyche. And every time it shifts back, the Joker has made an attempt to take control. Batman’s sense of time has been really messed up. I did some research. Batman self diagnosed with Cruetzfeld-Jakob disease. It starts in the cerebral cortex, and slowly infects other parts of the brain. Notably, the parietal cortex that controls sense of time is also infected at mid to late stages. When Joker re-emerges, Batman’s central cortexes are slowly being infected. Fortunately, Batman has one hell of an immune system that manages to fight off the infection by the end of the game, but it messes with his sense of time.

What was always a headcanon to me that as soon as the sunset comes, Bruce immediately wears the batsuit.

[@DarthArachnious]

In the original Denny O'Neil run, which is what BTAS and by extension the Arkhamverse is based on. Batman seldom shows up before midnight. It's part of the urban legend that he hides behind. It's the idea that most people don't believe Batman exists, which carried over into the '89 movie. In later years, Frank Miller would establish that he leaves at 10:47. The time his parents died.

You forgot about one tiny detail. One spec of dust thrown into your gears and destroying the entire timeline. The bridges. It is impossible for Batman to complete most of these side events, as large parts of the side missions are on the island that is only accessible after Alfred lowers the bridges, which happens roughly halfway through the game.

[@Bobbybillybillbob]

Maybe the glitch is when the times get displayed. Etc yes like you said the game, maybe it technically starts at 5 or 6 pm. It's October 31st, believable to be dark. Then the game progresses and ends at 3 am (hence why there is no 4 am) game takes place in roughly a 10 hour span if you look at it that way

The 8:55pm at the start could be when you first actually load into the city as officer owens and the 1:09am could be a time skip to after everyone is evacuated. Maybe when you first take control of batman exit and and reenter the game to see if the time is different? Just a thought

The biggest thing on my mind is that the sun wasn't up at least once (outside of the flashback with Gordon) and ik Gotham supposed to be dark and all that, but even researching what time the sun would be up in 2018 (which is the time the game takes place), the sun would definitely have been up after 7pm. In short, I'm high and got too into this, and I think playing as Batman in the sun for a bit would be kinda cool.

It is possible. On a weekend I asked myself the same question. So I slept during the day and started the game, at the point you begin to play as Batman (so 8am) and played it through. No cutscene skip, with every side mission (not these weird challanges), every DLC's (not the Arkham episodes) and without skip or other speedrunning tactics.
