man i wish next game be good
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League : well about that
if only it had a better villain
Just started this game today and was quite disappointed with the combat and world traversal. Arkham series gameplay and movement truly set the standard. The menu is slow and difficult to navigate. The customizing is a bit much and the suit and color options would have been fine.
This game was so disappointing.
Honestly I enjoyed Gotham knights, it was good to see the side kicks become more main characters and the way they portrayed the grief of loosing Bruce was nice, cause at the end of the day there a family.
And I get people are upset that they revived Bruce to just kill him again but the thing is it’s based of some of the movies and comics where talia did revive Bruce at one point.even with Cain all this stuff is based of the animated movies and comics,
And I like how they used the under the red hood story line for Jason.
My favourite part of the game though are the small cutscenes between the bat family as they are honestly really well done.
And I can’t forget Bruce’s voice recordings! I love how they start at his beginning of being Batman to where he starts to break slightly via the death of Jason and paralysis of Barbara, to where he finds out Jason is alive. The last recording is bitter sweet due to what we know happens shortly after.
And it makes sense why wb didn’t advertise this as much or put as much effort considering it’s not a Batman game, like it’s a Batman game without Batman. And we all know how Wb always ignores the side characters if where honest, sure we have comics but they don’t happen often
The story would've been better if they would've made it better. I personally think Gotham Knights was supposed to be connected to Arkham series but was changed so they can create hype for the suicide squad I don't like that batman being dead includes Barbra ans Tim 🤔 both of them have their parents to go home to but Dick and Jason lost their legal father who raised them they should have more of a impact on this story just a missed opportunity
Bro the whole point is that it’s not an Arkham Game. People keep comparing them even though they are both VERY DIFFERENT games. I personally love the game and how it differs from the Arkham games. But I get it’s your opinion, but still, I learned to stop comparing Gotham Knights and Arkham Knight, I also hate the lower graphics, but I wish the game was a bit longer, and added more of Batman’s main villains. I do hear occasional mentions. But it’s still a good game nevertheless. But quit riding the Arkham games, yes they were ahead of their time, but I enjoyed all of these games.
Another misstep by WB. They should have tasked WB Montreal with making two sequels to Arkham Origins.
You would think that WB learn their lesson but nope! Suicide squad is another trash pile destroying the Arkham series, this is what happens when corporate fucks make decisions about video games
I think an ideal batman arkham style game should not have you mindlessly gliding and grappling as its traversal, that is not what batman mostly does in the comics, batman should take the full advantage of the design of the city
things like
A bigger focus on parkor and jumping from one place to another
A less automated grapple with swinging physics,
in which after you shoot you can hold to go to the given direction or pick up momentum in creative ways and swing it
(similar to spider man)
And a fairly nerfed glide that requires you picking up momentum
in creative ways to glide fast
Also the batmobile and bat motorcicle should be present as a secondary traversal mechanic as reward for beating the campain,
you should get a fully playable batwing at the end of the game
I'll tell you this, THIS is how you adapt the personalities of the Batfamily into a videogame.
Bro missed the whole point, its a game meant to play with your pals, when you play with the homies everything suddenly clicks, its not a great game, but pretty enjoyable.
If you think the combat in gotham knights is really horrible you're genuinely playing it wrong.All the gameplay in this video is absolutely horrible and not taking advantage of momentum, grabs, or timed strikes. And the stealth was barely mentioned. You can tell you have no grasp on the game when you say "every character basically plays the same." Everyone is free to like or not like what they want but most of the flak gotham knights gets is from people who don't understand it or give it a chance
And now that Suicide Squad is out, Gotham Knights suddenly seems better in retrospect
I have a feeling that Gotham Knights might receive a surge of renewed interest now, because at least it isn't as bad as Suicide Squad Kills the Justice League.
I mean the game ain’t so bad I like it
This feels like a crappy rpg, also it feels like I'm watching that saints row remake. Didn't care about that game at all and uninstalled immediately after i beat it
Yk I feel kinda bad about not liking this game because it was gifted to me from my uncle and when he asked me "So hows the game?" I just lied and said it was good
Damn he was beating that monster shit up
Nobody talks about this game at all to the point that even I didnt even knew this game existed until today
The spot with the gauntlet of rooms where you stopped doing side quests is where I just full stopped playing the game. That area was fully obnoxious and the rest of the game wasn't good enough for me to forgive it.
This is the most confusing and stupidly made game. It had potential, but too complex for the most simple quests.
Just got this, This is such a stupid game.
1.This could’ve been a very sequel to Arkham knight with the Arkham combat and characters we care about.
2.They need to stop being so melodramatic.
3.Why don’t they do battle for the cowl it fits this game so well with the Batman villains too. Court of owls does not fit.
3.Court of owls should be a Bruce Wayne story he’s the centre piece and the reason it’s good, they always change it out of comics for no reason which is why they always fail to adapt it.
1: the game itself is very choppy and 30 fps
2: sometimes when you complete crimes it glitches out and doesn't let you complete it.
3: THE TRAVERSAL OMG IT SUCKS, and they had the audacity to put races and time trials.
4: the graphics aren't good enough for just 30 fps.
tbh it's so overhated, ive played it without any glitches or bugs and it's pretty fun
the attacking concept is fine, honestly i dont like the arkham combat, thats just smashing button
Man I don't understand why would I want to level up my character and upgrade 1513131 stuff in offline game. Just give me good story and beautiful graphics so that I can enjoy my free time. If I wanted farming and collecting I would play Lineage 2 or something like that.
Saw this free on gamepass, wasted 2 hours before I realized what kind of game it was, shoulda just watched the review lol. Really disappointed.
That game looks horrible😂😂
they portrayed robin as autistic in this game LOL
All they had to do was flesh out the characters from arkam knight, copy , paste, and polish. That's it, improve the parkour so the traversal would make people understand the character are still human but very skilled parkourist ESPECIALLY Dick grayson. add in new grapple mechanics, allow players to switch between swinging, directly being pulled, hanging, or being lowered down or up. Make gliding for robin very fast but not far or easy to control because his cape is much smaller while also allowing him more freedom of movement, make batgirls gliding just like knights, but she goes slightly farther and glides slightly higher because she is so light letting you also glide close to the ground for longer. Give Redhood the motorcycle and NO SUPERPOWERS AT ALL, because that defeats the purpose of the batman ethos entirely. Redhood could also steal cars or maybe helicopters since his morals are more dark. Also he is VERY distant from the rest of the family even though its still all love because he still kills criminals because Nonlethal armor piercing bullets is complete bullshit. make Damien mourning his father almost a emotionaless endevour for him because he doesnt know how to handle it and seeing death since he was a kid has numbed him too it while also making it obvious that he misses Batman by maybe making him go looking for batman in a cutscene or speak as if he is still here. Alfred should be feeling like he has to stay strong for the rest of the family but also feel like he failed his ward batman. Lastly it should be a 4 player co op game. with or without 4 players, you should be albe to choose how many of you go to a mission. Its crazy how you make a game with the Batfamily but they never actually work together i mean what the fuck. This game had so much MORE POTENTIAL than arkam knight but it was doomed from the start due to the developers and publisher not understanding they already had a great formula with knight that just required polish. Not to mention it looks better aswell.
Kind of????? 🙄🙄🙄
I had to quit this game, It got pretty boring real quick with the copy and paste crimes, it didn't help that the voice acting for the thugs was atrocious, having traversals locked behind a grind fest, I can't help to think what could have been if they focused to make a great gaming experience instead of just rushing it with mobile-game like UI and other RPG mechanics.
The Arkham comparisons are unfair because there are plenty of games that are worse than the Arkham games but are still fun. To me, Ultimate Spider-Man comes to mind, which was kind of a mess but a really fun one.
Gotham Knights isn't fun, in the same way that Square Enix's Avengers wasn't fun. They use the systems of role playing games without the actual fun of role playing. They're loot treadmills wearing the skin of a videogame. It's an exacerbation of the exhaustion we have with lootboxes and gear grinding systems that plagued MMOs finding their way into single player action games.
Gotham knights & Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League both suck donkey balls 😂😂😂
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 Game of the CENTURY!❤
Not that bad
Bro you are way tweaking. I played solo I had some randoms try to join me and I kicked them out because I can't stand random people.
But by your own admission and your own gameplay you basically got butthurt that it wasn't Arkham and so you never really invested in learning how to enjoy the game for what it is and how to play the game effectively.
I approached it like some of the Spider-Man games that I used to play back before Sony had Spider-Man by his spider balls like the old school 64 Spider-Man.
Explore the open world get a feel for the mechanics of it.
Tryout all four heroes see what place that I enjoy..
Ultimately ended up with Robin and that slideways shit and being able to teleport was fun as hell and definitely came in clutch when the enemies would gang up and be really cheap and cheesy I'd be like fuck you asshole.
Teleport away and then pick them off. Then his decoy ability especially once you level it up to have the proximity blast when the enemy tries to attack it and the microbots.
Like your overall Vibe is some sort of weird combination of a boomer that can't evolve and some petulant child.
But unfortunately makes up the majority of the gaming community these days I thought it was just exclusive to GTA online but sadly that's not the case
It's kind of a shame all they had to do was copy the arkham knight combat and it could of been a pretty decent game. I was somewhat engaged in the story but I stopped playing due to the horrid combat and traversal. But I feel if the combat was right I could forgive somewhat bad traversal obviously these characters are not like batman who is a jack of all trades. Also ya the map is crap compared to arkham knight they probably would of been better off recycling that map and making some changes. But I think a coop super hero game with arkham combat would be a really fun experience but even rocksteady fails to do that with kill the justice league. All these companies just want to make live service trash now.
thanks for the spoiler now i really dont have any reason to play it.
Love the concept of the game and that the bat familly actually matters. My biggest gripe with the Arkham series is how wasted they were, but that was Batman's problem and I get it. I honestly wish this had been the characters trying to deal with how they fit into the world after the end of arkham knight. I'm not sure what exactly went wrong here, but the gameplay was a step back, the crafting was hollow and obviously just a time sink, and the world felt more empty than a Gotham with no civilians.
Like honestly the Arkham bat family finally getting to spread their wings without batman getting in the way would have been cool. To see them each discover who they are without him. You could even have an overarching storyline with the "ghost" were throughout the game they are trying to find out who exactly it is. You have each of the charaters focus on one villian but as it progresses they realize that someone is pulling the strings in the background and they have to settle their differences and work together. At the end they can discover the "ghost" is actually still Batman and the end credits 100% completion is Superman inviting Batman to the Justice League officially and that would set up the Suicide Squad game coming out next year.
Maybe I'm crazy, but I think this studio has proved very competent at the tideover spin off stories in the Arkhamverse. Why this wasn't one of them I don't understand. Game had potential, but honestly just setting it in their own version of the Batverse killed it prior to the actual problems for me.
