It's either the freeze grenade or just somehow randomly you need to get a hold of the programming chip for the riddler-bots to let you control them with the voice gadget. Not exactly sure how you get the last one exactly, seems like you just have to get it from fighting one in free roam, but I didn't get one right away.

Cheers man. Want to 100% this. Game is fantastic.

Still really down about That One Scene though. :smith:

There's a bit late on where Batman goes back to his civvies and talks like Bruce Wayne and holy poo poo does Kevin Conroy sound old. At this rate he'll do fine for another DKR animated movie.
Peter Weller did a great job in DKR even if he didn't bother coming up with two voices. Conroy was the first one to do that, Bale did it well in BB but drove it into the ground in the next to movies, and I can't think of anyone else who's bothered doing the split.

It is inevitable!
For when WB games makes the inevitable sequel, spin off, or origins 2, are there any major bat characters they haven't done yet? Pretty much every villain the public would have heard of its here, though there's still some heroes I'd like to see. (Huntress and question please.)

I'm still opening steam and being surprised nobody has tried to patch this yet, even without any problems you'd expect some minor patches in the first couple days. Don't know if their post-release support was never planned to exist or if they're taking everything off of Iron Galaxy to patch in-house, in which case this is gonna take a while.

I assume you mean with Catwoman.
Use the electric blast thingy to move the blocks. Whichever block Catwoman is standing on won't move. Pounce to the ceiling to actually get into the room. The goal is to get empty spaces under wherever the lasers are.

CDPR is a real outlier in the industry though. They seem very concerned about the end user experience in general.

I forgot they also delayed it six months or whatever whereas WB probably wanted this out in time for whatever quarterly report.

Foot high elevators are infinitely more cost effective and efficient than tiny ramps. Do you even know how much engineering goes into a single 3" high ramp, let alone a foot high? Jesus.

Finished the game! Better than Origins, not as good as City / Asylum by a wide margin. Too much Batmobile, not enough Batman.

There's something weird about this game compared to the Asylum and City but it's really hard to put my finger on why. Maybe that they forced so much back-story into it? Asylum could have been set anywhere and City were pretty light on backstory but at times this felt like it was jamming 25 years of Batman history down my throat. (Arkham Knight identity spoiler that everyone already figured out) Jason Todd wasn't brought up in any of the other games but now he's the main antagonist for pretty much the entire game. After all the foreshadowing surrounding him, I spent half the game wondering if the audience was supposed to have figured it out hours before Bruce did. :v:

The redesigns and voice actor changes don't help, either. In some cases even the returning VAs are using entirely different intonations, which just makes the game feel off in comparison to Asylum / City.

gently caress the new weapons wheel, though. Muscle memory keeps throwing me into menus when I wanted to select gadgets. :negative:

Am I correct in assuming that there's no freeroaming / challenge maps for anyone but Batman? When I was playing as them in the team-up sections I was pretty sure that all the reused animations meant that they wouldn't be.

Farewell, good Hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.

I have a question about side quests. I've just gotten to Ace Chemicals in the early game and have only received the opera and fireman sidequests (and have seemed to only find one or two parts of those). Where are they all? Do they start opening up later in the game? I'm afraid I'm missing them all or something, or maybe I'm supposed to be playing the story in this game and quit acting like its the witcher.

You begin to unlock side missions quite quickly as you get further in the game, which also gives you "intel" that flags up specific areas to look in you haven't progressed a side quest for a while. It's done fairly neatly.

I don't know why but her "suicide" has left me pretty loving unsettled since I saw it yesterday. I've progress to the point of the game where I've just taken out the long range missile launcher on Founder's Island (clearing up side activities beforehand), but I keep thinking about the scene and just stop being happy, ugh. :smith:

That and the sequence where you see her get shot in the spine and whimper on the floor, paralyzed, hit me. I feel kind of annoyed with myself at getting this bent out of shape over a computer game but jesus christ I feel awful for her all around.


Jesus Christ. Take a break from the videogame and go outside.
