Not to go all misery poker on you guys, but if you thought the main story fights on NG+ are hard, get a load of the Azrael missions. Granted, there are no brutes, but the whole "Take no hits whatsoever" condition is a barrel of laughs without counter-icons - especially the third fight, which mixes in a medic. (By comparison, the final challenge - six ninjas - was pretty easy, though it still took a few tries.)

You should earn all 79 stars on your first playthrough then, scrub.

The only thing in the game I've really hated is the change to the quickfire explosive gel. It seems so useless now, especially since it is auto timed.

Love the easter egg in Man-Bat's laboratory if you go back after the end of the main story. It's by the bridge to ACE Chemicals, if anyone else wants to visit.

Dogen posted:I had more trouble with the ninjas just because of how janky the blade dodge is. Basically I just always pull away from ninjas on a counter and keep the button pressed, it doesn't seem to hurt the "normal" attack counter and gets me into a blade dodge pretty reliably - and if it just a normal attack, I still have the whole animation for that to let go and reassess the situation. It definitely is quite tricky, but it's doable. By the way, if anyone still needs to three-star Untouchable, I recommend staying at the edge of the arena and blowing up tanks until you have a full Level 4 charge, then deploying a CPU virus, then working up to a Level 4 charge again and unleashing a missile barrage. It's still wall-bangingly frustrating (like so many things with the Batmobile combat), but if you can manage that you have it in the bag.

Do you have to 3-star everything to get the 100% ending?

They're really easy, though, and like a 1 minute investment for an upgrade point.

I'm not sure if it's funnier to have Riddler thrown in jail last, or be the only one ranting to himself in an empty cell.

If you have all the Riddler trophies when you go to NG+ you can do all of his trials the second you get Founder's Island unlocked for the Batmobile. He still does the "find all of them to fight me" thing, but that just leads to Batman stepping outside and turning right around again.

It's just the racing based AR challenges that I flat out refuse. And I think there are some where it's half race and half combat? I refuse to do those too. Do we have any word on when the Batgirl stuff will be released? Is it a midnight sort of thing?

If I activate the protocol before getting all of the riddler trophies, will I be locked out and unable to watch the "real" 100% ending until I beat the game again?

I wonder if you can put off finishing the Most Wanted missions until after the game and if they recorded special lines about Batman's identity being out of the bag.

Play the other games first. Then by the time you finish AK might work on your PC. But maybe not.

DaveSauce posted:I got this game for free when I upgraded my computer. Do I need to play the other games or can I jump in to this? I'm asking in regards to both plot and gameplay. City has some plot stuff that is spoiled literally immediately upon starting Arkham Knight. Origins is completely separate. Asylum's game systems are going to feel a bit dated after you play Knight. I'd recommend Asylum-City-Knight, Origins at your leisure.

With the caveat that Knight contains a few minor references to Origins, so you might want to play that first.

Origins is awesome with some minor but annoying flaws and (now) some minor bugs, but since it builds heavily upon City, you should familiarize yourself with City's combat or some of the later enemy groupings are going to cause problems like the armored brutes and the martial arts guys. The martial arts guys were awesome, why the hell weren't they added to add some more variety to the combat? They already have the retarded thing of having paramilitary troops use swords.... loving swords against the Batman, why not some stupid unarmed kung-fu dudes?

(Knight shows he is still a dick to a lot of people, especially people named Tim.)

My guess is that this is because martial artists in Origins had persistent bugs in combat. I'm actually not clear on how much of the Origins resource base was made available to Rocksteady- things that you'd think would be ported over, like the Enforcers, to be changed into Brutes, were effectively remade.
