ImpAtom posted:More people watched Teen Titans than read DC comics these days. absolutely - comic readership is bizarrely low when you look at the numbers. i guess the reason they still make them is because the people who do read them have tons of disposable income and are reeeeeally into them. i guess by 'comics' i mean all the stuff that wasn't internationally popular amongst both kids and adults, which i guess in my infinite, shameless self awareness can be boiled down to 'the poo poo i watched as a kid' also not that i'm scoring points but while i've heard good things about teen titans i doubt it's the classic that the animated series is, and i'm reliably informed that smallville and arrow are dreck that i will likely never watch. probably still better than 'Gotham' though fwiw i hope this beats the documentaries about moss. shame i already spent my audible credit for this month though

Arkham Slade is really lame compared to Teen Titans Slade. He's not even voiced by Ron Perlman, so what's the point?

Generic Monk posted:nope. my main experience of batman as a child was through VHS tapes of the movies and TAS. never seen teen titans. Welcome to being an old man. Someone in the proper age demographic who grew up watching Teen Titans is now probably old enough to legally drink. They also probably wonder what a VHS tape is and why you would need to rewind something.

The worst thing is ENDING SPOILERS he busts his rear end pumping out all these top-tier new gadgets. The disruptor and the second Batmobile are still prototypes at the start of the game. And then at the end of the game, his big thanks is Bruce Wayne exploding himself and ostensibly closing down the entire company, which I would imagine leaves Lucius out of a job.

I'd avoid insanely cheap third party key resellers. Even if the key does work there's a good chance it's stolen or taken from a third world country and could be revoked.

a cop posted:Is Arkham Knight PC worth $20? I have never heard of that sight. I got the premium edition for 35$ at Kinguin, which I assumed was legit since they sponsor esports poo poo and Twitch streamers. The PC version was playable for me after I reinstalled it and updated my drivers. There were still some tiny bugs, but nothing that made me have to stop playing. I haven't played since the new patch since I had beaten the main story by then.

ImpAtom posted:Nah, I was mostly kidding. It's cool that you got to see the shows in any way, even long after they aired. yeah totes, i'm just monologuing a cop posted:Is Arkham Knight PC worth $20? They didn't fix it, but it'll be worth $20 when they do e: I have to say I'm pretty impressed with the environment design in this game. While every area is detailed to the point of being fairly visually busy, it remains really playable. It's especially apparent in the open world where seeing the burning fire stations is as easy as following the smoke, and even chasing man-bat with no objective marker or detective mode is perfectly doable. Character design... a little less consistent but still overall good. Arkham Knight is such a lame villain (apart from his title pretty much being Leader Of The Mooks I find it hard to be impressed by someone who gets so obviously angsty and pissy whenever his plans are foiled, which is All The Time) but his character design is pretty dece. Scarecrow looks less cartoony than the other games but it works. Shame the character is woefully underused and delivers far too many lovely monologues, which is what a grand total of no people wanted after seeing him tear poo poo up in asylum.

I love Troy Baker and his voice, but him voicing the Arkham Knight is really annoying because it's like the same voice he's been doing for a while, but with a filter over it. Like you could've had literally anyone else voice this character, I don't know what about his audition was special over other actors, but it can't have been that much better than anyone else's.
