the reason why the city looked weird was because this version of gotham was a lot more younger as well as the batman. The developers took all the same buildings and did modify them to look more different to Arkham City and Arkham Knight. To me i believe this to be a smart idea since it’s literally like batman fighting bad guys who affect the city, which causes it to look younger.

Jingle bells Batman smells, Robin laid an egg. It's a time honored tradition almost as old as the holiday itself. And if I remember my Bible the way I think I do, and I do, then I know Jesus just lived long enough to see himself become become the villain too... He and Batman are almost the same guy if you think about it, except for Christ not beating the crap out of poor criminals in Jerusalem's slums, and his parents not getting murdered themselves (helps when your biological dad is God, I guess) and thus the Messiah being turned away from the typical life of vengeance at such a young age, plus his lack of a butler, mansion and millions of dollars (billions in today's millions), none of which Jesus deserved because Joseph and Mary didn't work as hard as Thomas and Martha. However, like Batman, Jesus coincidentally also has Christmas songs written about him, so their stories will always be inextricably intertwined. Can I hear a Bat Hallelujah?

Well, every Arkham game is known for a strength. Asylum is known for it's atmosphere and horror. City is known for it's story. Knight is known for it's polished combat. And Origins is known for it's boss battles. That's what this Arkham had going for it that no other Arkham game leaned into. It just has the best boss fights in all of the games. And it probably has the best trailers that went with these games. That Bruce growing up trailer is probably the best marketing I've seen in Batman anything. One thing that needs to be mentioned is Gotham itself. Gotham is a character in all these games and this Gotham is the most boring Gotham in the series. All I think of when I try to remember this game is going from Arkham City, a neon lit city and although dilapidated and in ruins, still looks lively and has character, - to the monochrome drabness of dead streets in Arkham Origins, unlived buildings, and souless structures in areas that couldn't look less appealing to explore. Their contribution to the Arkham map should've been an indication just how boring they would make all of Gotham in Gotham Knights. That is my biggest issue with this game. It's such a crap map that you don't want to cross that goddamn bridge when it comes to it.

This is what I wish Arkham Knight was, narrative & performance driven.

You see a man trying to be something more for his City. In Arkham Knight Batman, is pretty much the same throughout the whole game, even though it's a lot of fun I wasn't emotionally invested at all

17:40 ppl always drag me for this opinion but the third season of the show batwoman is one of the best handled post-batman stories. Basically all of the things batman confiscated from his villains got out onto the streets (mad hatter’s hat, mr freeze’s ice gun, catwoman’s whip, etc.), and a bunch of copycat villains found them and sprung up all inspired by their predecessors. It also paralleled heavy to how Ryan (batwoman) handled being basically a copycat Bruce. She ran wayne enterprises in his absence, juggled bat-missions, and tried to keep corruption out of the corporate workplace. If you don’t believe me, watch it for yourself. Skip the first two seasons, hop in on season 3, and tell me what you think. It’s a short season and it’s very enjoyable.

It's so great to see that Arkham Origins has been getting love recently. Idk why people had to bash this so much just for not being connected to Rocksteady or that it was just a gameplay copy of Arkham City which I barely cared about tbh. The game had taken such a interesting dive into that Batman's origins in similarities to the comic run of Batman Year One and elevated it with a original narritive that hits hoke about the essence and meaning of Batman. In honesty I sometimes go back and forth with Origins and City for which had the best story in the series cause it's just that damn good. The story's great, the VA cast is solid (and especially Troy Baker's take of Joker), the combat even similar had some new styles and honestly was the smoothest imo until Arkham Knight. The original score was AMAZING man. Christopher Drake made such fitting motifs and themes that captured well in a thrilling and heroic sense with some special compositions of Christmas melodies that fits with the game's settings beautifully. Arkham Origins will always have a special place in my heart for what it's done thru my childhood and especially the memories I made playing the first time. I used to pop it on the PS3 every holiday in celebration and it was the perfect entertainment to enjoy the season. Thank you Luke for making this vid about the game and Happy Holidays 🎄💙

It’s darker in tone, story is great, it’s got awesome sections, fantastic boss fights (yeah Deathstroke I’m looking at you) and through whole my play through I was wondering, why there is so much hate towards it. It’s got the best combat impo after Arkham Knight, and yes electricutioner gloves are so freaking OP but so fun to use! I don’t know, I had a lot fun with it! Looking forward to playing it again

What's tragic is that the developers who actually built the game almost have no say in what's actually in the game. The greed machine takes over, the suits who are completely out of touch take over, make stupid demands like turn Arkham into Fortnite and make it work not knowing shit about games at all or their audiences, like what happened to dead space 3. It's all about the bottom line and fans and artists can get bent if they don't like it. This is what's plaguing the entire industry and watching how Sony has been acting lately, it's no longer just games being destroyed from greed, they're destroying their entire platforms being anti consumer and pro profit to a comical extent. What game console has ever gone up after 2 years on the market? Now games not worth $30 are being listed for over $70!?? Sony and Microsoft are hopefully about to kill their platforms doing this garbage

I enjoyed batman origins when it came out. Till I got to a game breaking bug that wouldn't let me continue after hours of play. I still need to finish it.

Arkham origins suffers from being the “worst” of one of the best video game series of all time. It’s like being in a family of athletes and you’ve won a championship in your sport but your 3 siblings have won 3, 5, and 6 championships respectively

This game was out at height of Nolans batman movies and you can definitely see inspirations taken from it. Which isn’t good because I prefer the dark cartoony vibe that the early Arkham games had like asylum and city.

I just played Arkham Origins for the first time a few months ago and I genuinely loved it. It's probably my 2nd favorite Arkham game next to Arkham Asylum. Super underrated.

I just finished playing every Arkham game and I love them all but Origins is definitely a step down the combat feels less refined and I didn’t care for the twist of the Joker pretending to be Black Mask but it was definitely still a worth entry in the universe I wish Rocksteady would make another prequel and merge the amazing gameplay of Arkham Knight and superb story of Arkham City

Gotta be honest about the game I really like the story that its telling with the great voice acting and cutscenes but other then that the game feels just like a big DLC for Arkham City. In terms of Graphics / Gameplay mechanics theres basically no changes / additions Some bossfights are just straight copy and pasted out of Arkham City And for the worst the traversing through the world is painfully slow. For an open world game i dont know how this got play tested and put into the final product. Takes out all the wind out of its sails literally and indirectly. And no the bad fast travel system with big loading times isnt an excuse for it. But still other then that they did a great job with the boss fights and overall for any fan of the arkham games its still a good game to play imo. As an overall experience I still would place it at the lowest out of the 4 games, regarding context of release year etc...

I think that this is my favorite of the Arkham games. I didn't know that it was so divisive when it came out, but to me this game is all killer, no filler. It's a shorter playthrough, with a good number of classic batman villains to encounter and fight, and I suppose that's all I really need

The uninteresting environment, bland OST, and the janky combat really held it back from being on par with the other Arkham games. However I always beat every Arkham game 100% multiple times and I do think its strengths outweight its flaws. I think Origins deserved its mixed ratings.
I tried Batman: Arkham City again...
