I wasn't plugged into gaming media back in 2015, so finding out this game wasn't well received baffled me. Loved this game from the get go and have replayed it the most out of the Arkham series.

[@Monticello19]

One thing that annoys me is because the batmobile was such a focus, they had to make the streets abnormally huge and wide. Makes the city feel less real and less claustrophobic. I liked the tight alleyways and streets of City much better. Could have done without the batmobile completely tbh.

[@LegacyDaKing]

Arkham Knight is not bad at all it’s a great and beautiful game. It’s just the weakest of the trilogy story wise but gameplay wise it’s the best just the Batmobile was overused. But I loved it the first time I played it and the last time I replayed it.

[@chazz3167]

I remember my main issue with this game was the Batmobile while in combat mode. Yes it was cool and plays very well but it became so repetitive. They made so many mandatory missions involving combat mode with the Batmobile and I got sick of it. So much so that I always choose Arkham Asylum or Arkham City over this

[@Fassi214]

Feel the same about the Game like you...

[@jpduval8]

My problem was always that I loved the gameplay, but felt there were too many puzzles involving the Batmobile and tank battles throughout the story. 2/3 twisted metal matches with the titular villains as boss battles (plus death stroke being one as well) is the epitome of my issues with the game.

[@NGGamer-nb6bu]

Exactly this. This killed my vibe. I can’t explain how many times I’ve deleted and redownloaded the game only to get so frustrated with being forced to use the Batmobile with everything and then proceed to delete again.

[@jimwatson1013]

@@NGGamer-nb6bu I am 74% completed the game as of right now, It has taken 7 years of installing loving the game, only to be stuck going "this is dumb...this is dumb..." at a Batmobile section.

[@PowderedVoltage]

​@@jimwatson1013I can appreciate the scope of this game, and the sheer magnitude of variety. It's a technical marvel in so many ways.

[@MMTrigger]

I think what hurt AK was the over-reliance on the Batmobile and Joker. The car itself is fine, and if there were alternate ways to doing the related sidequests that the player could unlock then it wouldn't have been an issue. Joker is a different issue, because his involvement is heavily reliant on retcons. 1. The Joker Infected. In Arkham City, when Oracle confirms that hundreds were infected from transfusions tainted with Joker's blood and would die within hours. This happens while Batman is leaving Wonder City, so the player can't miss it. The HQR DLC later confirms those people were cured, even adding a line about "known victims" as set up for the Joker Infected. Knight then says that the tainted blood was recovered, that Batman is still infected, and only four other people were exposed with no explanation for why they didn't die. A line explaining how Batman is still infected comes from the Hallucination!Joker while in free roam, so it's very easy to miss that plot detail. In fact, this game would've been better it dropped the entire Joker Infected subplot and just let us have Robin helping us during Free Roam instead of one time in the story and the challenge maps. 2. Retconning Batman's infection was pointless as once Batman's exposed to Fear Toxin, all the Hallucination!Joker scenes could've been attributed to the toxin alone. Even the subplot about Joker taking over Batman's mind could've been done differently. In Asylum, we briefly play as Joker in the third Scarecrow sequence and, in City, Strange suggests Batman is hiding a "true self" beneath his persona. Both games say that Batman is burying powerful, dark emotions. Even the comics have established that Batman has a back-up personality called the "Batman of Zurr En Arr." There is more then enough precedence to just make the Hallucination!Joker a split personality, born of those suppressed feelings taking shape and breaking free thanks to the Fear Toxin preying on Batman's fears and other issues. For me personally, and others I'm sure, I hate this retcon because it cheated us of our victory of curing Batman in Arkham City, that now this says that he was never cured, and that the plot point of "Batman needs to cure himself" was still in play when it didn't need to be done again and felt lazy as a result. 3. Predictable as it would've been, Ra's Al Ghul should've been the Arkham Knight, driven to revenge against Batman over the loss of his daughter. By making Jason Todd the Arkham Knight, driven to revenge against Batman after being tortured by Joker, the story adds an uncomfortable revelation: that even though the game treats the whole night as the unavoidable result of Batman's war on crime, it might've been avoided if Batman killed the Joker before the events of Arkham Asylum. This could've been acknowledged, with Batman realizing that he could've tried moving Gotham's insane to a different facility than Arkham Asylum and change the status quo while keeping to his moral code. Arkham Knight has the best gameplay in the series, with only a few changes from being perfect. I like this game, but the story is easily the weakest, and it keeps me from playing more often.

My gripe is and always has been the lack of boss fight quality like we had in Asylum and especially City. Most boss fights being tank fights should be a crime. Everything else was fine to great, but the boss fights bothered me.

[@antfrancis9941]

The tanks became tedious after a while especially the last tank that hunts you down but it was the usage of the batmobile in some of the riddler challenges that really pissed me off. Other than that though, a brilliant game & still better than majority of the games that came out this year.

[@jimwatson1013]

The heavy reliance on the games physics not ruining you during tricky parts has frustrated me to no end.

[@qdakid7776]

The problem with knight is if you don’t like the Batmobile the game is damn near unplayable

[@Pumba424]

Honestly at launch, I was so taken back by how integral the Batmobile is to the game, that I bounced off of it. I went back about 4 years later and gave it another chance only to realize that I was wrong and that even though it could be used a little less, the Batmobile is actually awesome and it’s a great game. Still one of the best looking too. Crazy that it ran on a base ps4z

[@MrQballeo01]

Wasn't people's problem with the batmobile that instead of typical hand to hand combat against bosses like red hood or desthstroke it was a tank boss fight?

[@EthanSpidey]

There is a reason, out of all of the Arkham games, this is the one I’ve played the most. Yes, the storytelling has problems & yes, SOME, keyword SOME, of the Batmobile sections for me, were very much a drag. Specifically the Cobra Tank sections. HATE those! But even with all of that, at the end of the day, it’s a hella fun game to play! Which is what really matters when it comes to a video game. If you’re having fun playing it, that’s all that matters.

[@TheDanimal91]

Batman Arkham knight is phenomenal game! It's 8 years old and still looks amazing and the open world is so much fun to explore. Yeah the batmobile gets a little tedious and you can see the story twist from a mile away but it's one of my favorite games. I remember playing it for 16 hours straight the week it came out.

[@Spidey35a]

In Arkham Knight the star is not Batman but the Batmobile. So much so that you had to all the challenges in it. Ridiculous.

[@probablyprauper9246]

I view the Arkham trilogy as a look into what would the end of Batman's career look like and I love that approach cuz they did it so well and in a satisfying way. My only gripe is that some boss fights shouldve been more unique, like why are we fighting Deathstroke in a tank? At least give us a hand to hand fight in addition to the tank fight.

[@reecewagner8604]

It’s actually amazing. They just missed so many opportunities with various characters like deathstroke.

[@jeremyroberts8822]

It’s my favorite of the entire Arkham series. I know a lot of people complained about the bat mobile but I mean I think the reason they had so much of it in the game was because people had been hounding them for years about it. Ever since the first game people were like this is dope but give us the bat mobile so they finally gave it to us but when they did all the sudden people went from begging for it to oh now this is too much batmobile lol. There really isn’t that many tank sections it’s mostly the riddler stuff that uses a lot of it.

[@CFLaughs]

@@zachlance6301 well the tanking battles are not mandatory when you free roam. Whenever you explore Gotham, you can use the Batmobile as a means of transportation only. The game doesn't "force you" to use only the battle features on it.

[@aranighosh3945]

​@@CFLaughsPeople wanted the batmobile for traversal in a huge Gotham City, not repeated rounds of tank battles.

[@CFLaughs]

@@aranighosh3945 that's the thing, they not only give you the option for using it during free roam around the city 🏙️ but also Rocksteady did the thing where they gave us more gameplay variety which helps keep the game from getting stale. They didn't take away anything from the previous games but rather expand on it. Arkham Origins got a lot of hate for being too similar to Arkham City and Arkham Knight got a lot of hate for trying some new things. You literally can't please everybody.

[@Rouz102]

Iirc, there was a moment where people had guessed who Arkham Knight would be, and the devs responded by saying "nah it's not him it's actually a new character." Then it wound up being the character we all knew it was anyway.

[@seanifer12]

I loved this game. Combat, puzzles, story, gadgets all amazing. Really came down to whether or not you liked the Batmobile, which I did. The tanks challenges and race tracks were really awesome. 10/10 game. I’m looking forward to this trilogy on switch.

[@flyingplantwhale545]

I'm really excited to revisit all three games when they land on Switch. But I'd say Arkham knight, for me, suffers from a lack of good boss fights and villain encounters.

[@DerkioNoAudio]

This game was never called trash. If I remember correct it launched very unoptimized for PC and had major performance issues but that’s all. It came out the same year as Fallout 4, Witcher 3, battlefront, siege, MGS5, etc. was just a packed year and got overshadowed quick.

[@shadowlizard7830]

This was the reason I bought an Xbox One and the first game I bought for it. I played the heck out of it and got 240%. I recently bought it again on playstation and did it all again. Fantastic game with the best gameplay in the series.

[@tyleroutland435]

I wanted Joker to be dead in all aspects but no Rocksteady was so dumb and made him back in knight in the stupid joker mental plot

[@dr.loomis4221]

I actually like Arkham Origins more than Arkham Knight. Arkham Knight had too much Batmobile, too many tanks fights, and no real boss fights.

[@flyingplantwhale545]

My biggest gripe with the game is how few, meaningful villain encounters there were. This game focused so much on environmental puzzles with the car and cared very little about real, intense boss encounters. Most of them were relegated to brief appearances in repetitive side missions. audiovisually, the game is an absolute dream come true.

[@vadimmanuilov7401]

Dude! I agree with you on Novigrad in the Witcher 3. It’s my personal favorite game and I agree. Every time I replay the game I speed through Novigrad.

[@adamrielh]

This was the first game I played when I got my PS4. I didn’t love the storyline, (because of my own expectations) and I was meh on the Batmobile stuff. But coming back to it this year, knowing what the story was going into it, and having the experience of driving the Batmobile before, it felt good just zipping around, the city in it, similar to how good it feels to swing around New York with Spidey. And the stuff with Joker and Scarecrow at the end might put it over the top as my favorite in the trilogy. And even the graphics hold up after all this time. RIP to the GOAT Kevin Conroy 🖤💛🩶

[@sheikhabdullah873]

Bad? It is a goddamn masterpiece. It may be not liked that much comparing to it’s predecessors but the amount of work the developer put into that game earned my admiration.

I’ve played through this game 3 or 4 times. I think it has the best story to all of them, maybe tied with City but I didn’t like Dr Strange at all. The gameplay is by far the best in the series. I initially didn’t mind the Batmobile sequences, I feel the same way now. It feels to me pretty 50/50 Batmobile and on foot gameplay to me

[@timothypatch5080]

My only issue with Arkham knight is they replaced 90% of boss fights with tank battles which were fun but I wanted more classic Arkham city boss fights

[@sevzen]

Didn’t realize it was considered bad. Played though it and loved it.

[@AliFOJ5]

Arkham Knight is my favourite in the trilogy easily for the gameplay perfection. It runs and works so smooth. The graphics are still so good. The rain affects and neon colors of the buildings are still amazing to this day. I think the only things I found to be annoying was the overuse of batmobile. But I still loved the gameplay for it. And secondly the weaker villain but that was because it was so obvious otherwise the story and the designs and everything was great.

[@CarbonKingZach]

As someone who has played each of these games from Arkham Asylum to Gotham Knights, is the new changes they tried. Namely the Batmobile, it was cool, but it felt like a bit much. (Which is a shame because at least they tried to do something new and interesting). We went from having to wait for a while to get explosive gel and being stuck in the tight corridors of the Asylum; to having a tank to take out enemies and can go wherever we want from the beginning of the game.

Also, to everybody who complained about the batmobile in this game, be grateful they even added Batman's car and gave the gameplay more variety to avoid making Arkham City 2.0!

Arkham knight was never bad. Sure the story wasnt as good as city and the excessive use of batmobile really did hurt some of the game's pacing. But the combat, graphics, voice acting, environments, good side missions and the ending really make up for the mistakes.

[@williammoore1030]

No it’s great and the series as a whole, including origins, dances circles around the majority of AAA titles that release nowadays.

[@TripleplayTirado]

Arkham Knight is very underrated in my opinion. I think this was the best route in story telling. The Batmobile isnt bad at all because the same people who finally wanted a batmobile inlcuded Arkham game are the same ones complaining it was too much. The story may feel rushed and cluttered, but I still believe this title is far more enjoyable. Especially at the time of 2015, this title is filled with so much DLC that expanded over time, especially Homage to Ben Affleck Batman, Christian Bale, Michael Keaton and even Adam West? It is truly hard to hate this game, especially with Duo combat missions including Nightwing & Robin as in Arkham City were barely playable. I will never understand the slack this game gets, which may be biased as Jason Todds story is one my all time favorite in the Batman world. And seeong the Arkham Knight become Redhood only multiplied my likeness towards the Jason Todd Character. I might add that this games Batman Beyond suits in the main story campaign with animations, is by far one of my most favorite renditions. It was almost as they brought Terry McGiniss' suit brought into real life video game time. Enough of my fanboy, I would definitely have this on my top 3 Arkham games, Arkham City being 1 and the most highly underrated Arkham Origins that WB Games loves to ignore as my 2nd. I loved your take on this as I could not agree with anything you said, This was well worth watch dude.

[@lunch_trey]

Wanna know my one and only complaint about Arkham Knight? The Riddler challenges. I miss the head scratcher riddles that made me look at 'em from different perspectives. Other than that, this is the ultimate Batman game to me. I love it, I don't have the same complaints about the story or the Batmobile as everyone else, I love the small nods to Origins and it's one of my favorite games of the past generation and a helluva conclusion to one of my favorite series.

I actuallt didn’t play the Arkham series until 2020, I was late to that party. Played all 4 in a row and loved them. Arkham Knight may even be a contender for my favorite. I couldn’t believe it when I heard this game was shit on at release. But we get what we give and I’m sure the response to Origins and Knignt, 2 games in a row, led them to scrapping anymore and beginning the live service dumpster fires that were Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad. To be fair though I did enjoy Gotham Knights for what it was. Was funner than expected. But it does pale in comparison to Knight. And Origins. And that’s the problem. I did love the whole Joker being in Batman’s head thing and their banter throughout the game and the feeling of what’s real and what’s not was such a great part of the narrative and so well done.

Loved arkham knight biggest complaint is the cloudburst tank battle. I think a hand to hand fight across rooftops woulda been cool

Love AK, I play on PC and haven’t had an issue. I bought it for like 5$ off CD keys, and the DLC for like 2$ lol. And man, much like Shadows Of War, the value per dollar is amazing. Love it, I’ve beat it 3 times, I’ve recently went back to it unroll Diablo 4 dropped.

Of course the internet overreacted and threw a temper tantrum when this didn't end up being exactly like the game they had created in their minds. It's my favorite of the series.

I prefer it over Asylum, find it more replayable over it

That Rocksteady Superman game should not have been shelved. Hurts my soul, we could get a rocksteady superman game. Live services are hurting game development. We couldve been getting a sequel superman game, with the time SSKTJL has taken. Bad part is about it, is that the game still might not be done, even once it out.

No. It’s not…

I was very disappointed the first time I played it when I found out that the real ending was locked behind 100% completion, at least they partially fixed it afterwards. That said, the rest of the game is fine, not great. It definitely has the best gameplay in the series though (I never had an issue with the batmobile, except for how they turned Death Stroke into a batmobile boss fight), but I'm mixed when it comes to the story. I personally prefer Origins as the finale for the trilogy, as unpopular of an option as it might be.

except origins isnt rocksteady

Arkham Knight was never bad. Some people can be little babies and nitpicky about things that dont mean anything. That game is the ultimate Batman simulator and is a masterpiece.
