I beat the story on “I Am the Night” without TOO much difficulty. Then, while just strolling around the world map casually looking for some collectibles, I stumbled into a thug with a machine gun and died the most random, meaningless death imaginable. I honestly didn’t expect it to reset my save since all the story stuff was done and I was just casually gliding around the open map. When I realized that’s exactly what happened, I turned the game off and haven’t played it since.

I'm gonna be completely honest, I loved "I am the Night" mode in Arkham Origins. But I legit wished that both the Return to Arkham games and Arkham Knight involved this game mode. With New Game+ being honestly my preferred way to play the games. This provided a really nice way of giving me a new challenge. With Firefly being the most difficult.

[@austinmann1435]

Couldn't you just do it on your own? You might not get anything like you do for origins, but can't you go through new game plus, and if you die, just restart on your own?

[@nategar412]

​@@austinmann1435yes. Yes he can.

[@Bugplanet8840]

@@austinmann1435technically yeah. But you would have to have multiple save files backed up. And on the 360, you can’t really do that. Trust me I tried to do that a few times. Had to restart all my saves😢

[@austinmann1435]

@@Bugplanet8840 you can't just restart a new game plus? Damn, those bastards thought of it all

[@obsidianthegamingzorua116]

@@austinmann1435 I could, by it would be a real pain in the rear to do so, since you can't erase your newgameplus data without straight up erasing your save file, so anytime I die I would have to play through the ENTIRETY of the regular game again just to unlock newgameplus and try again.

[@claytoncgamesXD27]

I still remember my first attempt in "I am the Night" Mode. I tried to do Deadshot's side mission just by curiosity, but he saw me and one-shot me.

[@sideways198]

It's a real shame that this mode wasn't carried over into Arkham Knight. I always adored these ultra nightmare type difficulties that are designed to absolutely push your patience to it's breaking point.

[@thefonzkiss]

Imagine playing the story mode through perfectly and then a riddler blockade knocking you into the water.

[@master0fthearts894]

5:52 Oh my god, you beat Electrocutioner on I Am The Knight? That was the hardest boss of all time, it took me 10 tries to beat him.

[@ZeroNeedsCoffee]

Dude this looks like it was so difficult holy shit good job

[@swxtch5503]

Fun Fact: if you stay perfectly still after the cutscene when Gordon comes in to help fight the thugs in black gate, the thugs just won’t lock onto you and you can essentially just wait for Gordon to take them out. I did that on my I Am The Night run and used it as a opportunity to catch my breath after both Bane fights lol

[@rolinn777]

[@swxtch5503]

@@rolinn777 if you have PSNow, you can play it on a PS5. However, it's not the in the best quality. You're probably better off getting an Xbox 360 Emulator or just buying it on PC

[@kalosokadar1555]

Years ago I beat this as a really, really persistent and frustrated teenager. I love this mode to death and have been contemplating giving it another try. Earning that Batman Arkham Origins XBOX Avatar skin drove me to crazy limits trying to beat this. Stuff like Deathstroke, and the Bane fights in particular I remember being horrific in this mode. It's cool to see you got it completed! Revel in your victory!

[@thewheyoflife3548]

I was playing the story on hard mode, and boy I could not imagine fighting the bosses in this game with permadeath. This game has the absolute best boss challenges of the Arkham series

[@fravtheregular]

Glad i was able to participate in the streams. That goddamn Bane train is truly something *_very dangerous._* I once tried it and i'm very proud of being able to no-hit Deathstroke yet again. Thank you for wishing me a happy birthday on the third stream!

[@ganr1277]

Bane train is easier if you slide instead of evade, still need good timing tho...

[@Rcmorbin]

The bombs payload is not exposed I can’t use the powerwinch to trigger a controlled explosion

[@anthonyoliver418]

I am glad they added a mode like this into the game, sure it is very brutal, but it is clearly marketed towards players who already beaten the main game and are good, so it feels like a really cool final challenge that you have the option of completing!

[@gxrobert]

Legends say the Baine fight still haunts him to this day

[@AAllen-br8it]

You had your own Knightfall arc man lol first fear and uncertainty allowed Bane to beat you, then your victory made you weak and overconfidence let him break you, then you came brought stronger than ever and showed Bane who rules the night.

[@Noyou3129]

This vid is what made me try this challenge again. And after 6 runs and so many heart attacks, I did it. With 100% all side missions. Thank you Clown Puncher, your the best.

[@icarusgaming6269]

Always lead with a smoke bomb while approaching a fight from above. Sometimes you can even find some time to squeeze one in while they're running to you

[@Deadeye.Marston]

“G’day chaps tis I, clownpuncher139” will never get old

[@SonicBoost343]

26:15 Despite Bane being right here, I love how this man Clownpuncher is just reciting Bane's lines out loud, in literally the best Arkham Bane impression I've heard.

[@ECHUNGUSPOG1]

i wish all the other arkham games had this gamemode, it would be super fun to be able to do this on one of the other more optimized and less glitchy games

[@BrandinoGaming]

This took me 8 tries to get through. Bane killed me so many times. Congratulations on getting through it. It's definitely a true test of determination.

[@jimmyrolls37]

Finishing this mode after the game came out is still one of my most fullfillng gaming moments ever

[@thecarolinabull01]

Let's be honest, Deathstroke is incredibly easy once you figure out how to time the counters rather than just mash the button (except during the staff/sword beatdowns of course). Also, on the Copperhead fight, explosive gel works just as well (maybe even better) than the concussion detonator. I actually beat I Am the Knight mode on one try, mainly due to a glitch. I specifically remember dying near the end only for the game to some how respawn me as if it were a normal playthrough.

[@bipolarbear7337]

I died in I Am The Knight mode once. I was fighting bane at the hotel, nearly beat him, when my older brother slammed his hands on the window outside. I pissed myself, and got ran over by the Bane Train.

[@shadowmilk3742]

As someone who beat this mode a year or so ago, i can say bane was also my run enders. Nonetheless great vid/stream and i salute you for becoming the night

[@handymanhand4091]

I remember when I was in high school and I attempted this challenge. As soon as you said, being in the Gotham royale, I almost just turned off the video because I had some bad memories….

[@Magic_Johnson_321]

Incredibly proud of you Clownpuncher I missed out on this stream which is a shame I’m just waiting for an Arkham asylum stream

[@Spoodermansy]

Nice…also good luck for Knight,

[@anthonyoliver418]

I actually discovered the reverse Hotel camera scene about few weeks or a month before you started this challenge, I find it funny how back tracking can actually do that

[@DisMan42]

I remember the time i died during the prison bane boss (before he goes TN-1) and i turned off my Ps3 before the death scene ended, I cut the game back on and I checkpointed to where I was before I died. I basically gave myself a 2nd life/chance.

[@idfkimaclown]

I am here for my fallen brethren. I shall avenge them one day, Clownpuncher.

[@meghanandrockmackay5804]

It was so fun watching you do this live! Props to you for beating this!

[@MasterVenom20]

I finally beat “I am the night” mode and at one point I died but closed the game quick enough that it didn’t save that I died, I was so happy because I was almost at the firefly boss. I have never stressed more than when I reopened Arkham Origins after closing it

[@KicktheSky34]

The Bane train is easier to deal with the more mooks are on the field. Just keep flipping over their heads, and you're safe, even if Bane runs into the guy you flipped off of.

[@SonicEmeraldYT]

The streams were amazing! Good job clown!

[@PieSauce1994]

Brooooo! Looking back on this challenge makes me feel nostalgic! To remember the time when I hadn't beaten it yet... those were such difficult times, but some of the most hopeful and remarkable! Love to see someone else become the Knight as well, and nobody deserves it as much as the true Arkham fans like yourself!

[@xenovenomzillathesymbiote1681]

Well guys, ClownPuncher has done the impossible. I'm proud.

[@incrediblecaptain]

It’s the Bane fight. For me it’s the Bane fight that always end these runs for me.

[@ryanshelton3281]

The guy saying because I was dying at Bane, that is the most soul crushing sentence I have ever heard. Because I’ve played Arkham origins, and I have died on Bane.

[@crimsonsamurai887]

Great tip for the brute section in the final offer: since you'll know hes gonna bust through the door. Set up glue gel traps to knock the enemies down and beatdown the brute first, gives you a headstart

[@Vman_95]

Hard modes in Arkham games feels so much better. Every health and stealth upgrade feels effective once you start unlocking them.

[@roarsack503]

For the Bane Train the trick is to leave some thugs to use as stepping-stones for dodging. The i-frames and hit detection are much more generous when leaping over thugs than doing regular rolls.

[@dizzyishere999]

Having spent many years playing the Arkham games myself, I've become very skilled at these games. I used to be scared to try the "I am the night" mode. A few years back I actually managed to beat it my first try with no resets, but I'm still afraid to go back to it to this day. The only other game I've beaten on a mode like this was DOOM Eternals Ultra Nightmare mode.

[@anarchy6918]

i remember when i 100% completed this game and thought i was ready for this mode, i got to the bane fight at the hotel and died same as you, i decided to never touch it again it made me so upset, but after seeing this i think i might go for it again 😂

[@purplenova5949]

I died trying to get into Blackgate from sewers at the end of the game while playing i am the night...

[@romhackerplus6691]

Just beat it today. The key is patience, and going slow. A lot of players like to go fast with the combat, and they either run out of free flow or they get hit becayse they arent paying attention to enemies with guns.

[@BonnieFluff]

I'd kill to have seen your heartrate during these attempts. Especially your second Bane encounter.

[@Bentheanimeking]

my only complaint is that you should’ve done this for the Christmas special ,besides that I’m super proud of you wish I was there.

I also chose to take out all the cops, which had armor, in that one room in the GCPD), but I got through, and I’m very proud of myself. Matter of fact, I might just go through the side missions that have combat/predator sections (specifically Anarky, Penguin Arms Caches, Mad Hatter, Shiva, Black Mask, Deadshot, and Bird) on I Am the Night without restarting cause why not 😂

Cheesing your way through it just to get the I Am The Night trophy is easy, but doing it correctly without resets is definitely a challenge. And the Bane fight at the hotel is definitely the Great Filter event. I was lucky enough to get through it on my second try after being killed by Bane on my first go.

This makes me wanna go back and try again because I got super demoralized after I lost to the Titan Bane. Maybe this run will be the one!

[@Prissywaif]

4:17 fun fact you can fail this section if you have the auto remote detonation upgrade and place it on the weak wall that you are supposed to preform a takedown on. It will go off alerting the ai that you are there and causing a game over.
