I just like the idea that reality got changed so that Jason lived - and they then buried him anyway, and Jason didn't notice that he was alive for 10 years.

The guy I was quoting didn't say a single thing about comics. He pointed out that Scarecrow was going to nuke the Eastern seaboard which is one of the largest buyers of consumer products which isn't based off Random Comic Issue, it's based off reality.

Seriously something like nearly 1% of people live on the East Coast. Catastrophic. Lex surely wouldn't sacrifice approximately no one to kill Batman because he's not a giant evil manchild.

I don't think anybody involved the in plan other than Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight knew that the bomb was meant to affect the entire eastern seaboard. I doubt even the other villains were in on the sheer scope of the plan, nor do I think they cared beyond "Batman's gonna die at some point".

Controls Chat time, I was slightly incorrect earlier in the thread when I said a hanging ledge drop was Shift+Middle Click, Turns out it is just middle click. Nightwing's Ranged Projectile quickfire for dealing with charging thugs is mapped to 7,7 for some reason. Also after using a controller for a short bit last night, it would seem that drifting doesn't kick in right away when you just tap X/Square, Pursuit/Battle Mode feel almost completely different because you are switching between using the Trigger as your Go forward for Pursuit, and the Analog Stick for Go forward for Battle Mode, whereas on KB+M, W is always go forward which makes for slightly less jarring transitions between the two. Also the Special Combo Gadget takedowns are a little easier/not as bad on a controller, because you are just holding the buttons for quickfiring your gadgets, so to do the Batclaw Combo Takedown you fire the quickfire batclaw which grabs someone, and continue holding, and it transitions nicely into the instant takedown. On KB+M you hold down the gadget button, which does not quickfire the gadget and you stand stock still for 3 seconds hoping to not get punched in the face, and if you don't get punched, the takedown happens. I have tried double tapping and holding the second tap so that it goes from quickfire to takedown like with a controller, but it does not work, and only quickfires the gadget. tl;dr: I sperg about batman mechanics.

it would have been way cooler if instead of tanks they were retrofitting stolen cars and trucks with weapons and making them remote controlled like giant versions of the toy car bomber from the show.

I don't know how anyone plays this game without a controller. Even on the PC versions I played before this I used an xbox controller.

Hello friends. I finished the game and the Harley Quinn stuff, don't have the Red Hood stuff since I didn't preorder from Gamestop. I think it's good. Is it just me or is the game harder? I got wrecked a few times by brutes, probably intentional. Everything seems to move faster too but this could be because I've spent almost the last year playing a poo poo ton of the last three games so I've gotten used to their timing.

Mr.Citrus posted:Martial artist thugs are definitely in AK though, don't they throw them at you early on? They mean Martial Artists from Origin. They were mooks who required multiple counters and could counter you which would require counter-countering. There isn't anything like them in Knight which is too bad as they were one of the better parts of Origins.

I also appreciate that the other characters had special combos tied to every button combo, it really helped the flow of combat in dual play for me. We really need more dual play challenge maps, and at least one dual predator challenge. That segment with robin is probably my favorite one in the game.

I know I have the timing down, but the direction can be tough to pin down.

There really should be a Dual Freeflow Challenge for every available character. It's kind of bizarre there isn't honestly. Also a dual predator room for at least Robin.

If nothing else I did like how the Arkham Knight kept losing his poo poo during drone battles and whenever you took an outpost. I was just waiting for him to smack his lieutenant and throw a temper tantrum about how incompetent everyone is.

The stupid thing about the blood Is that they could easily have just played it as just the gas doing that to him. Batman's afraid that having Joker's blood will turn him into Joker or whatever. It's still cheesy, but infinitely less ridiculous than the actual plot. They desperately need to add challenges for each character. Though I'd bet money they'll do it with DLC.
