Game was a solid 3.5/5. Only played arkhama city and asylum and I don't see why gotham knights gets the hate
Arkham combat was flawless because if the free flow combat system. It was skill based, not level based. The only way to play was to git gud. The thugs dialogue was genuinely funny "locked down tightee then my mom on prom night" that stories hilarious. The arkham series was a series of love letters, and arkham night especially was an epic, everything batfans wanted, needed, and loved from a game.
games are no longer made for the players. they are made purely for profit with the fun being an after thought.
Looks like u cant dodge well so
Horrible game. That's what I got to say.
Game is trash feels like the avengers
Whoever decided this was a good game should never be allowed to make another video game
I get that some of you guys might not like it but I personally do like it like there are some problems that I can see like the gear system but that's the only thing I hate about it overall Gotham nights is a enjoyable game
Never played the Arkham games. Would it be better to just play this first, ans then try the Arkham games after?
Your just bad at the game crybaby noob honestly
Like the whole staff needs to be fired!!! 😂 and I love batman games but this 🗑
Such a BIG LET DOWN!!! WASTE OF MONEY 🚮
Well that's easy, it wasnt rocksteady.
I'll tell you what went wrong! The story isn't great, and it's not a Batman Beyond game
I think gotham knights was originally supposed to be a sequel to arkham knight but clearly someone wanted to ruin the game by downgrading the gameplay and changing the map.
They're definitely different game universes but they share so many similarities…
I intend to see gotham knights story but its got some obviously downgraded combat vs arkham series. Its weird seeing it especially since the combat of nightwing, Batgirl, robin were all better in arkham series and red hood was his own vigilante that didn't take prisoners.
Its alright though, maybe one day we get a true arkham knight sequel but it honestly is a decent end to batmans story. Just seems odd that we didn't get a batman beyond arkham game. Or even a rumor of it. Or a re use of the map with new characters… something… idk..
Ill say this though, arkham knight is so well done it partiwlly ruined other arkham games for me. Arkham origins was great minus that map change and slow gliding but it was year 2 batman… ig it makes sense
Arkham origins batsuit is the best arkham suit btw, arkham knight messed up making its belt gold.. ugh
its annoying that developers think players hate live service games, no, we just DONT LIKE games that ARE NOT fun. make a game fun, and giving it progressive updates as time passes keeps its players.. Playing… ugh…
Also arena fighters arent bad, but when the gameplay is bad… the gameplay is bad. Games in 2020's are supposed to offer multiple gameplay archetypes as well, with well crafted conensed worlds that have a lived in feeling with side activities and big open areas to travel across….
great video man this explains why this game fell short perfectly
I don’t care if the Arkham universe isn’t finished in fact in my opinion there’s room for two more Arkham games one the Arkham origins sequel and two the Arkham knight sequel I realise finding a voice actor for the Arkham knight sequel would be almost impossible without kevin Conroy but as roger craig smith voiced Batman in origins at least you have an Arkham origins sequel
You could hack enemy weapons.
You could evade enemy attack.
Hard
They could introduce Riddler in a DLC… Or Two face… Or Catwoman… Or ANY of the other villains that are clearly missing..
It’s okay. Just got it on sale. Makes me think of Arkham Games with Hogwarts Legacy DNA in grinding, crafting, and side missions. My only gripe in it is the frame rate drop and unstable video setting that makes it lag a lot even on high spec pc hardware
Better than Suicide Squad
STRONG! FEMALE! CHARACTER! Also, several other bad things.
They killed Batman off. Thats it. Batman should have been man in the chair, then playable at least once.
These 'lets subvert expectations' writers don't know good story. Just politics.
I’m ngl I loved Gotham knights it wasn’t even too bad 😂😂
No Batman Duh
Great game
I'd say something i've noticed when watching people play gotham knights is that it feels like a game you just play to pass time, and that's never a good thing
If you told me that Akrham Knight was a next gen sequel to Gotham Knights, I would believe you. And what's crazy, is that as bad as Gotham Knights is, Suicide Squad, which was just released, is even worse in every way!
unpopular opinion, but I like Gotham Nights far better than Arkham Knight and its not even close. Side note, I do not really care about Batman or the universe.
I was so looking forward to GK but the final 2 Batman games took a different direction, so this should be of no surprise that they focused on the big picture but took away those small intimate moments we loved in the first 2 Batman games. The op nailed it when he’s said mission structure isn’t there. There were huge issues with the fan base on those last two Batman games, we hated driving around and they gave us more of it. Another out of touch studio who doesn’t care about 1) future of their studio 2) because they are more focused on investors 3) when they should be focused on innovation of gameplay 4) and drafting an unforgettable storyline
Nothing went wrong. You're just complaining
Damn i forgot Gotham Knights was a thing
Man everyone in these comments are on suicide watch after suicide squad
