@@rackydacky2660 The story (as in the symbolism and character development) was amazing, the plot just wasn't the best. It could have been better but I mean, can't everything?

[@Basisreallycool]

I disagree. The Jason twist was unnecessary and obvious. They were trying to shoehorn him into the overarching plot. Would have been better if Hush replaced the knight given that his side story made no sense. In City you're chasing someone who steals faces and then all of a sudden in knight there's this emotional backlog moment where it turns out he's Bruce's childhood friend. Like huh? The Batmobile was horribly implemented. People wanted it as a cool traversal option. But in Arkham Knight it wasn't an option. You HAD to use it - in missions, riddler challenges, taking people back to the gcpd. It was everywhere. For controls, changing equipment was immersion breaking. In the previous games you could do it on the fly. But in Knight, you opened up a menu to change equipment. And lastly, the thing that matters the most... Boss battles. Or lack of. like come on!! Origins released just before and it had incredible boss battles. And then you've got with with Deathstroke fighting you in a car...

And compared to the quality of other superhero games, it’s simply the best. The overarching story from asylum to knight is phenomenal.

Arkham series and AC series back then WERE MY GAMING STAPLE lol. The stealth gameplay,the stories, the tense feeling, just unmatched

[@memevondank1197]

One thing I love about this game is how the militia gets more and terrified of Batman throughout the game At first they mention how absurd it is that they are an entire army to kill one normal guy At the end they think it’s absurd Scarecrow only brought one army to take him down

[@MrVarga64]

I've never understood why Arkham Knight is criminally underrated and shat on. I don't even understand the complaints behind the batmobile being "Overused" Because I thought it was woven into the gameplay an adequate amount and a brilliant expansion on Batman's already ridiculously huge arsenal of gameplay mechanics. I can see how they're comparing it to Arkham City, where the puzzle-solving was exceptional and obviously there was no batmobile in that game and people probably wanted more of that in their next big Arkham game. But we did still get 'Batman only' puzzle-solving areas in bulk which gets overlooked, and a lot of it was blended WITH the batmobile, which I just saw as an evolution and expansion of those puzzle-solving areas. The ebb and flow between batman/mobile were done very brilliantly, and I genuinely do not understand the complaints. Plus story-wise and visually, it is one of the best depictions of this fictional universe I think we've ever received. I mean, when they first revealed Scarecrow at the end of that gameplay trailer I got chills and thought "Damn... Scarecrow is actually fucking terrifying for once, not just some idiot with a potato sack on his head" I think Arkham Knight will probably age like fine wine and people will appreciate it more as time goes on because the truth is it's actually a far greater love letter to Batman than soooo many other attempts. I may just go and play through the game again now... For probably the 10th time! Because it's incredible! EDIT: Also, Rest in peace, Kevin Conroy. Things won't be the same without you, but you'll forever be etched in history as arguably the most definitive Batman and the version most people's minds instantly go to when they think of Batman. Thanks for making a fictional character real to us all

Look at those cape physics now remember that this game came out in 2015 on ps4

Fun fact: Whether you kill the people in the diner or not will actually affect the police officer you control in the intro. Also, the lady and the guy that you talked to earlier can be found dead in the morgue.

[@AllThatJuice-]

I love that the Arkham Knight is getting the love it deserves. We didnt realise how good we had it with this game, even with the excessive combat sections with the Batmobile. It needs to be said though, bombing through the city in the Batmobile never gets boring, its only the combat sections that wear out their welcome. But now that we have Gotham Knights to compare it to its obvious just how special this game was. Its insane that 7 years later that we still dont have a follow up to this game, especially with the way this game ends.

[@NovemXI]

The Batmobile was awesome the first couple times you used it, and it provided a fun way to traverse the city. It just become incredibly repetitive towards the end of the story. I also really disliked the story of AK, esp all the nonsense with Joker. There’s so many other great villains they could have focused on. The Arkham Knights identity was obvious from the beginning, very lame boss fight and reveal. Despite all that, AK is one of the best games I’ve ever played. The graphics, the atmosphere, the voice acting, the gameplay…it unironically “makes you feel like Batman”

[@Raffney]

Problem with the story in Arkham Knight is that it never really moves forward in a meaningful way for a long time. At first it's chasing Scarecrow, after that it's chasing Scarecrow, followed by chasing Scarecrow, concluded by chasing Scarecrow even more. And between these section are barely any other villains. Mostly drones and faceless thugs. I think that's the main problem with the narrative in Arkham Knight. Players really need the season of infamy dlc to bring in a few other villains, otherwise it's almost exclusively Scarecrow and Arkham Knight for most of the time. (with a few small cameos by other villains here and there)

[@route77productions]

@@Raffney perfect. I feel the same, not to mention the story goes on a massive detour with the unnecessary Joker blood subplot.

The Arkham series in my opinion has been and always will be a legendary trilogy about a 8 year old boy becoming the Dark Knight that strikes fear into the hearts of criminals. 🖤

[@thelegendhimself.]

4:24 I absolutely loved the batmobile not sure what problem other people had with it I loved the fact that it had so many features and uses throughout the story other than just getting you from point A to point B because obviously the batmobile is not just a regular car

[@brixcer]

I think people didn't like the fact that all batmobile missions was exactly the same just shoot tanks and continue and the amount of those missions was to much and almost all bosses was just a boring tank

[@thelegendhimself.]

@@brixcer ok so it's not the batmobile itself that is the problem they just didn't have more diverse missions and better boss fights

its just breathtaking and the Batmobile can be much but the game as a “whole”… it makes you feel like the Batman. I feel sorry for those who never gave it a try

This is still the most complete game one of the best combat systems ever the stealth is actually fun great story that’s long enough but doesn’t drag great traversal mechanics amazing vehicle with its own combat incredible graphics and physics and it is the most accurate depiction of batman ever imo he’s a detective a creature of the knight a crazy good fighter incredible stealth and when you fight the street crooks you really feel the fear they have of batman this game is just god tier honestly should’ve never been a Gotham knights just a reboot or a prequel to these games no one wants a batman game without batman
