FILMMAKER REACTS: BATMAN ARKHAM ORIGINS (2013) | [ALL CUTSCENES!!]

[@lukasruston8618]

I believe the shots of Batman fighting the Joker at the end that 'took you out of it' were meant to be references to how comic book panels are framed.

[@kaizammit]

That would be it then!

[@thedidacthalo4167]

​@@kaizammit I honestly loved those shots lol, be sure to react to the Cold, Cold Heart DLC for this game, amazing story and visuals. And yes, you will adore the other games in the Arkham series, surprisingly, this game was regarded as the worst (made by a different developer, and a different cast) but it's my favorite. The release order is Asylum, City, Origins, and Knight. Ignore SSKTJL (Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League) it's the Halo 5 of Batman stuff.

[@thedidacthalo4167]

And if you want the ultimate batman experience, I'd suggest playing Arkham knight, instead of just watching it

[@coneybaloney6150]

That was my favorite part 😭

[@sideshowman9686]

The gameplay is very open world. Most of the missing assassins are side-missions, Riddler, Shiva, Penguin, Deadshot, etc. A few are DLCs I believe. The game is massive, just like the others in the series. So if you want to play it yourself, there is plenty of content left.

[@jack22206]

2:17:47 one detail I think is really cool is that when Batman sees banes monitors, he’s playing the end of Bruce’s interview where he says “You just ran out of time.” And on the rooftop during their last fight Batman said the same thing to Bane. In his character bio, it’s said that Bane has a photographic memory, so he heard Batman say that to him and immediately went back to his base to check where he had heard that line before.

[@UwUBrick]

bane was originally both smart and strong like he's in this game, but in recent media he's been flanderized to be just a meathead who isn't smart. In arkham asylum (the game chronologially after this but released before origins) he was just a meathead so the TN1 was used to explain why he isn't smart anymore

[@ScorpionStrike7]

Harley Quinn

[@hominisdeusrex2944]

Deathstroke is who Marvel based Deadpool off of down to their powersets, occupation and name (Slade Wilson: Wade Wilson). Deathstroke is more on the villainous side though, and is an archenemy to the Teen Titans, especially Robin (Dick Grayson). His boss fight in this game is regarded as one of the best in the entire series.

[@kaizammit]

It was fantastic! Felt like you were really in there playing.

[@Midv1322]

I wouldn’t say Deathstroke is more evil than Deadpool classicly. Deadpool is like Harley he’s protective over people he cares about but he has almost no real moral compass. In more recent years they have made him more heroic. Deathstroke typically has some loose values.Also Deathstroke healing factor is strong but not as crazy as Deadpool but physically and mentally Deathstroke is way more powerful then Deadpool.

[@ii_wav_ii3629]

@@Midv1322yeah lol Deadpool was never a hero he was jus plain insane/funny in the comics it’s why ppl read them in the first place bc of how unhinged they were, Anytime I picture Deadpool it’s him eating a slice of pizza while scratching his crotch inna musty suit not the Ryan Renolds version but I enjoy what he’s done to character made him lovable to everyone. Ryan said himself that his comic variation would never work on tv😭.

[@tythompson4794]

Always thought this was an underrated game. I love Roger Craig Smith’s portrayal of a younger Batman. There’s some dialogue between Batman and Alfred Galway through the game I can’t wait to see what you have to say about it. I look forward to watching this reaction.

[@kaizammit]

I hope you enjoy the video

[@Raze612]

I think this is the most cinematic of all the Batman Arkham games. Not because the others lack cinematic flair, but just because they are focused much more on the in-game moments and keeping the player immersed. This game jumps between in-game and pre-rendered cutscenes, and they can be quite jarring to transition to at times when you’re playing, but my god are they good cinematics! I enjoyed experiencing this one again and getting to appreciate the amount of effort put into the game

[@samwright1821]

Would love to see you react to the other 3 Arkham games. The next one is set about 10 years after this one. Deadshot and Shiva are side missions in this game, and there was a DLC story called Cold Cold Heart. DLC takes place new years I think, but could also be worth checking out. The recent Playstation Spider-man games could be a fun reaction series as well. They took a lot of inspiration from this batman series

[@kaizammit]

Then it shall be done!!

[@SimonPetrikov12]

When Batman is resuscitating Alfred, a cool little detail is that the subtitles say "Bruce Wayne:" and not "Batman:" like all the other times.

[@kaizammit]

Didn't notice that! His voice did change though. Clever.

[@Saiegel]

The part where you play as the Joker is actually part of the game not DLC. Is explaining one of the most know Joker Origin story. He was a bad comedian that got involve with the mob and had to use the Red Hood helmet to commit a crime but he was not really capable of it, Batman try to stop the crime but made the mistake of dumping Joker into the chemical plant and that how the story of Joker started in one of the old comics.

[@rabbit2686]

7:45 - Nah, that's a different V.A. The "real" Batman voice is Kevin Conroy, the one who passed a couple years ago. I don't recall why he wasn't in this game, but he's in the others at least.

[@zandril978]

W.B wanted a VA with a more raspy voice to give the “new batman” a young and vengeful voice

[@parkmojo6168]

I think it also because the Arkham Knight is under development where he's doing the voice over, I think if I remember it correctly someone is asking about Arkham Series or something in which he ask which Arkham game? Edit: Search for Kevin Conroy explains why Warner Bros forbid him from doing cons video.

[@primary2630]

He may not have been available for it or they wanted to have a younger voice, but Roger Craig Smith did good and would be my vote for followup Batman stuff

[@TheShadow8771]

Mark Hamill isn't Joker either which was probably a big factor

[@Megalomaniac_Trans_Lesbian]

​@@primary2630 Well, he's reprising the role in Arkham Shadows, so I'd say it worked out in the end

[@UwUBrick]

the reason for cutscenes ending for players to make an input just for the inpout to start the cutscene again is so that players are active and feel like they are apart of the story, like when batman got over copperhead's poison and it cuts to gameplay so the player can get the last hit in, even if it makes the hit a cutscene. if the player had no input it would just be a glorified movie and gamers don't by games to just watch cutscenes (unless it's a hideo kojima game but that's the exception not the rule)

[@Xeno_Solarus]

Even MGS games have TONS of interactivity though

[@gamerk1058]

2:17:51…. They were recordings of the interview and when the GCPD stopped their fight Bruce used the exact same line you’ve just run out of time…. Been played them at the same time and that’s how we figured it out. That’s clever.

[@scottmemelord6130]

If you want to watch the rest, the chronological order is, this game. Arkham Asylum, Arkham City then Arkham Knight. Just so you know in advance. Also this game was actually the 3rd in the series. It came out in-between City and Knight.

[@scottmemelord6130]

Also the camera is high during most of the fights because you're usually fighting multiple people at a time and the developers wanted you to be able to actually SEE who is hitting you.

[@TheRealBillix]

@@scottmemelord6130 yeah but this is a "prequel" idk how canon in arkham lore... It bothers me that in none of the playthrough videos they haven't disabled 'counter alerts' and 'silly effects' (like stars and random vfx during gameplay)

[@scottmemelord6130]

@@TheRealBillix It's canon. No idea why this is debated, the original Rocksteady devs have never said it isn't canon. I think people just don't want to like it because it wasn't made by Rocksteady. Honestly people rail on Origins all the time and I have no idea why when it's honestly pretty good.

Kevin Conroy was working on Arkham Knight alongside Mark Hamill. Another Studio was working this while Rocksteady developed Knight.

[@airtiger4577]

Yeah, WB Games Montreal knocked it out of the park with origins. But, they actually developed arkham city armoured edition for the wii u before they did anything with origins

[@AustinFoss00]

Early Batman is a very angry and depressed human being. He's pure "vengeance" here. Later, he becomes more of a hopeful figure too, being someone the police can work with and who regular people see as a hero. When he becomes more calm and sure of himself, that is when he truly becomes a force of nature in Gotham. The anger is great, but a calm Batman that knows he's already won each encounter he gets into, love it. Also, I agree that they take it way too seriously when people think batman killed someone. Why would Gordon (Who just killed 2 Joker henchmen) give a shit if batman DID kill Bane, when he did it to save him and Warden Joseph?? They did that in the Dark Knight Returns comic/animated movie too. Where batman finally kills Joker after Joker kills like 300 people in 2 days. And the media and police are like "OMG He's a killer, he killed someone! He must be arrested now!" Like, I agree that normally Batman shouldn't kill and should stick to his gimmick and not want to cross that line. But why in the world would anyone care if he did kill these terrorists, rapists, murderers, and hired assassins?

[@Xeno_Solarus]

The same reason Batman himself chooses not to kill. Once Batman kills, he becomes judge, jury and executioner. He becomes less resistant to killing, meaning he could go on to kill more. He becomes a rogue element (moreso than he is now).

[@ii_wav_ii3629]

@@Xeno_Solarusbruh ur explaining it way too complex if Batman crosses that killing line then he’ll jus keep killing that’s it, its more for selfish reasons then anything else he won’t kill bc he knows if he does he won’t stop n that’s when it kinda becomes a problem.

[@neuffexx]

2:40:25 In regards to "They should have left that as a cutscene ... pulled me out of it, the quick time event", dont forget that your watching a video of someone playing it. In contrast to being the person playing it, when playing it yourself, the quick time event, similar to the 'on rails' fight against deathstroke you had in the beginning, being the person driving the action makes a big difference. Doing it yourself, when the character wants to punch the enemies, or when your trying to revive your friend (alfred) it makes it more immersive in my opinion, rather than just leaving it as a cutscene. At the end of the day, in my eye, a single player game is just an interactive movie. Taking that interactive element away at these key moments can hurt the immersion more than help it.

[@mina7572]

Yeah I'm glad he's doing arkham games!

[@kaizammit]

[@Jamall_Toys]

This was a very good game. It was just once the "fans" saw it was made by a different studio, different voice cast, different look from the other games. They completely hated it. You know people, if it's different they can't handle it. If I remember right once it came out the haters became silent, but the damage was done. Not for me, I bought the big collector edition on day one.😁

[@kaizammit]

They hated it!? That's crazy, I loved this!

[@mfahy9047]

​@@kaizammitIt had some baggage when it was announced. The aforementioned VA and studio stuff, plus it was the 3rd installment in the series, but was a prequel. It felt like it risked being a cash grab, but aside from a lingerjng impression of some rough edges, I'd say it worked out well. Still probably the weakest of the 4 games in the series though.

[@airtiger4577]

Well, arkham origins got a lot of mixed reviews back then because of how the map was too similar to arkham city's and how the joker was in the game as the main villain instead of black mask. The map thing wasn't WB montreal's fault, though, because rocksteady let them take the lead on the game while they worked on arkham knight and they didn't want to make too much changes or deal any disrespect towards rocksteady's games.

[@Drazden8]

The opening cinematic for this game was TOP TIER for real. I would love a reaction for the other Arkham games. RIP Kevin Conroy, you are sorely missed.

[@kaizammit]

I will be covering all the Batman Arkham games so stay tuned! I hope you return.

[@resurekt97]

I'ts actually great that you started with this because chronologically it's first game among the other 4.

[@NakedSnake1836]

7:53- That would be the late Kevin Conroy, but he didn't do Batman: Arkham Origins as the time period is years before Arkham Asylum even occurs. Roger Craig Smith, - best known for his roles as Sonic the Hedgehog and the best assassin of Assassin's Creed, Ezio Auditore da Firenze -, is the voice of a much younger Batman, though he also did Batman: Ninja and is to reprise his role as the Dark Knight for the upcoming Batman Arkham game.

[@LEVCO11]

Sadly Deadshot and Lady Shiva were side quest fights, which is why they appeared on the TV’s in the meeting. In terms of DLC, there’s a fun Mister Freeze one that’s pretty cool. Arkham Origins can be played on Xbox, PS3, 360, and PC. Btw if you want some amazing cinematic game experiences, look up Alan Wake, Quantum Break, Control, and Alan Wake 2. You won’t regret it.

[@kaizammit]

[@ActualTrashcan]

Bane is actually incredibly intelligent, in that very early cutscene going over the assassins it shows his IQ, I didn’t look at it but I believe it’s like 170 or so Which is how he figured out Batman

[@isaaccrump3673]

any time you didn't like something it was the persons gameplay and camerawork with a controller

[@DemarcationMedia]

Okay...that was epic. The other Arkham games when?? 😂 Perfect timing too, I recently found some small model kits of Arkham Knight style Batman and other characters from that game. I've never much considered that games use the same or similar methods as films to make them feel like an actual story. Thanks for doing this breakdown! 3 hours is no small feat!

[@kaizammit]

Yeah, these videos are getting longer nowadays haha. The model kits sound interesting!

[@jackleverton9179]

Hi Kai just wanted to say that might be your magum opus so far- sort of seeing a whole game through and giving details that go beyond the cutscenes and extend into the gameplay. Granted you've done that before a lot, but this was a video where the mix between custcenes, gameplay and storytelling is blended really well but also easy to seperate into different pieces. De-constructing the lighting and how the camera moves from gameplay to the story and so forth, really great analysis! I also want to say i'm so glad you liked this entry, it's not the first game made in the series- it's a prequel to the series in fact. So it suffers from trying to be different but also trying to feel recognisable, it was made on a lower budget by a different developer and it serves as a stop gap between the penultimate and last entry, so it's here to keep that vested interest. Now i'm a sucker for underdogs and I went into Arkham Origins not knowing it wasn't a traditional entry into the series and I loved it, the feeling of establishing the characters and the christmas setting. It was able to set up its own stakes and take more risks by not being part of the 'Arkham trilogy' so in turn it had fun with the creative directon and took gambles with the story and gameplay- some elements work and some don't but it feels distinctive among the Arkham games and it stands out because of that. A great story that finds the heartstrings to set up some emotional investment ready for the final installment in the Arkham series.

[@kaizammit]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video . I'm very excited to cover the other games now, absolutely loved this entry.

[@Flo.2005.]

When you think about it, this game has a very similar way of treating Batman as Matt Reeves' version. Both year 2, young and focused on the idea of inflicting vengeance, not as preoccupied with their lives as Bruce Wayne, all their time is focused on being Batman to the point where it's an obsession. Alfred gets almost killed in both as well. Both have Riddler and penguin in important roles. And ofc the "becoming hope" arc that they both have.

[@thedidacthalo4167]

YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS you finally did it! Best Batman game I've played

[@Carlos.j.lopez777]

Late comment, but after many playthroughs of this game, I only barely realized while watching this video that Batman tells Bane at the end of their first fight “Looks like you just ran out of time.” Which is the exact line caught on camera that he says to the reporter as Bruce Wayne. So I think that’s supposed to be the moment that Bane realizes his identity.

[@kaizammit]

No way!!

[@Eldrich09]

Fun fact: when Bane says “You have *one* minute” when talking to Joker. If you count the rest of the cutscene and the quick time event where you punch the Joker right after. It’s precisely one minute before Bane shows up again and absolutely disrespects Batman.

[@nofacedgoldfish6216]

Not sure if anyone else has recommended this yet, but if you plan on checking out the other Arkham games, there are two DLC stories here as well. One set during Bruce's training before becoming Batman, and the other being one set after this story during New Years Eve.

[@CIRegiment]

You definitely need to do the other Arkham games. They are works of art in more ways than one. Use Batman Arkham Videos for the gameplay since he makes sure to get all of the details.

​@@GumCuardian I personally enjoyed Origins as much as City. City has a lot of good qualities, but so do the rest of the games. Asylum is my favorite in overall tone (it's the darkest, and I think DC is at its best when it's dark), but Origins wins against the others on cinematography and sound design (it's the most movie-like / cinematic). I loved Arkham City when growing up, but still, I don't personally understand the overwhelming hype Arkham City gets. The narrative and overall concept is absolutely banger (It's the most worldly of the Arkham games), but I didn't feel like it pushed the other games out of the water in any way. It's not necessarily even my favorite. To me, I feel like each game has its own appeal and niche: Asylum: Dark atmosphere, Grittiness, nostalgia bonus City: Overarching Narrative, general worldbuilding, most DC-like, nostalgia bonus Origins: Tightest experience, Best cinematography and sound design Knight: Best gameplay / mechanics, most well rounded

yes you should try the others. this game is actually the 3rd in the franchise but obviously takes place at the beginning. the next should be "Arkham Asylum" then "Arkham City" but make sure you do the "Return to Arkham" versions as they are remasters of the originals then you should do "Arkham Knight" and if you want you should cover the DLC's as they have more cutscenes and different perspectives from different characters i.e. Harley Quinn, Robin etc. much love from Canada ❤️

This one has the best boss fights but I like the story in the other 3 better....Deadshot and Shiva were more like side missions that didn't really affect the main story

[@rhysjarrand5112]

I would suggest the Batman: Arkham City - Hugo Strange Trailer ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6ampX2prpKXb9k ) & the Batman: Arkham Knight Announce Trailer - "Father to Son" ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/raTJaGt4iJ6Je5I ). Given the quality that is put into these trailers, I still say we could get a great full CGI film for Batman and others like Superman. It would help free up some of the limitations that come with real film making. And since for a Superman film, there will a sizable amount of CGI anyway, it just be better to make the whole film that way.

There all this good. Next is asylum, then city, then arkham knight.

By the way, the director of the promotional video for this game went on to direct the first Deadpool movie.

[@kaizammit]

No way, that makes total sense!

[@finleymorris04]

This game released between Arkham City and Arkham Knight, and is the first game in the timeline. It got some fierce criticism on release and is still considered the worst in the series. I think a big part of it was that Alfred’s fake death and Bane discovering Bruce’s identity fell flat because we already knew those things would be undone by the end, so there was no tension. Further, due to events you’ll find out about in Arkham City, people were wanting Arkham Origins to have a character other than Joker be the villain, so Black Mask actually being Joker was disappointing for a lot of people.

As a new gamer I bought Batman: Arkham Knight because I thought the gameplay looked the best of the Batman games but these cutscenes are making change my mind.

[@kaizammit]

I'm looking forward to seeing the others and comparing the differences when it comes to creative/cinematography flair.

[@juliantn]

@@kaizammit Off topic but I'd love to see you watch Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. I haven't started it yet but I know that about the first hour of cutscenes/gameplay is wild.

[@uslovieu4853]

Tnx, mate

[@mrsebros]

3:04:03 - Suicide Squad from 2016 was dogshit, but The Suicide Squad from 2021 was an absolute masterpiece. I can definitely recommend that movie; it’s very stylistic.

[@Vracuon]

Will you upload part 2 of Asura's Wrath? I can't wait to see it

[@kaizammit]

I'll be recording it soon 🔥✌🏻

[@Vracuon]

@@kaizammit Sweet! thanks for your work, I like your reactions and commentary a lot!

Pretty sure Joker is Troy Baker in this one and I remember him doing a really good job.

[@Мистер_Ац]

In this game, the best fight is against Deathstroke, just look at what you have to do to beat him

[@toffybucket1766]

Have you ever watched or played Star Wars The Force Unleashed? Because I think you would love it.

[@gamerk1058]

Do cold cold heart DLC . You will love it

[@RTC-bz8mp]

If you haven’t seen the metro games I’d highly recommend them.

[@TheDoDoGuy]

Just to ease your mind the voice of batman is not Kevin Conroy this might say origins but it's not the first arkham asylum is the first But this voice is roger craig smith who's a talented voice actor his big roles are ezio from assassin's creed and sonic the hedgehog But for Kevin Conroy he voiced in arkham asylum arkham city and arkham knight

[@kaizammit]

I thought this VO Artist was fantastic!

[@captshavers]

I really enjoyed going through that story again, I forgot how good it was, and many consider it to be the weakest in the entire arkham series. (They get better from here) Also there are only some assassins that are required to finish the game, some are side quests. This whole thing felt like an entire story from the Animated Series, or at least it reminded me of when I watched them religiously as a kid.

[@OGslays]

I missed these games so much the only thing I didn't like was they didn't get Kevin Conroy as the voice

[@ToxicCatMC]

Just a heads up I think Arkham origins has the best story so the rest of the games might seem a bit underwhelming but the gameplay in Arkham knight is unbelievable

[@livingitupish]

React to all of the Arkham game trailers!!!

[@LordKnoppers]

Arkham origins is by a different studio and the third arkham game by release date (2013). Arkham asylum is by rocksteady and was released 2009 and it might look dated, so I'm curious how his first impression will be. Arkham city was released 2011 and went open world, I don't want to reveal more though. Both asylum and city got new versions on PS4 and Xbox one in 2016, but those are, despite some graphical / tech improvements, worse than their originals - in my opinion. So I'd suggest footage of the respective original versions from 2009 and 2011. Arkham knight was released in 2015 and is still to this date a graphical showpiece. Batman and Joker are voiced by different actors in origins compared to the remaining 3. Asylum, city and knight are voiced by Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy (rest in peace).

[@jetstreamvergil6247]

You should watch the devil may crys series cutscenes for vergil and dantes rivalry alone

[@NotTheRealDragon]
