Just because Liquor's dead, doesn't mean you can just roll this bitch all over town with "The Freedoms."
One of my favorite hobbies is to inflict injuries upon myself that are exactly identical to other people in my city just to spice things up for detectives if I'm ever murdered and publicly displayed by an insane opera pig.

Just be glad Pyg used people with overly specific quirks and oddities and not just generic folks.

Also I know there's an explanation for it in-game, but Riddler's new design kinda bothers me. Maybe because I really liked his City design, but this one is just real eh and looks weird and I'm not sure why Not as bad as crew cut, overly muscular Robin though.

He did kidnap Generic folks. He was turning them into Dollotrons, however some people he kidnapped were too flawed for him to make perfect (By his standards) so he killed them and strung them up. Batman pointed out this is why he was caught.

The idea is Eddie's trying to clean himself up and seem superior for his broadcasts, when in reality he's degenerated way further than any of the previous games.

The idea that he's just gone off the deep end and into a deeper end just building more elaborate death courses and puzzles for Batman is neat, but it's a real sharp turn from how he looked in City (which I admit, was a pretty stock portrayal of Ridder, but hey I liked it) that it feels like seeing a guy at a high school reunion that ruined himself and just being "drat man, what happened to you?"

Had a great bug that saved me from the tedium of having to pick away at Deathstroke's tank; I took out the last Cobra, then soon after lost control of the Batmobile before it fell through the ground into the sea that apparently exists below Gotham. Then got a clip of Batman punching him out mid-ocean before the Batmobile's rear seats floated across the water to them and Batman did a quick Jesus impression over the surface to load him in.

Possibly recorded it, but since I've never used the PS4's record function I don't know exactly what it captures. Still, avoiding boring boss fights is always good!

Even in Origins there were signs he was about to crack. He goes from laughing at Batman to practically grinding his teeth together during communications - holding it together much better than the breakdowns in other games but you can almost taste the lunacy that's about to seep through.

Now I wish they had closed Riddler like they did in Gotham Adventures where he realizes that he actually is insane and does need to go back to the Asylum... Instead he's either raving in a cell or yelling to everyone in Gotham how there's NO WAY Batman can be Bruce Wayne....

You okay there, Eddie?

I cannot get the Leap of Faith achievement which is driving me mad, it's the only (listed) achievement left in the game for me to get, but no matter how many jumps I've made (you need 8, I found a guide with 16) it won't seem to trigger. I've set 100m waypoints for each and am fairly certain I passed 100m on at least 10 of them, but there's no way to track if you have or haven't so I don't know if I just need to get one more or I'm still sitting on zero. I guess I'll just have to leave it, there are other games to play and I've played the hell out of this game since it came out.

And people weren't kidding about that Harley Quinn DLC being short :stare:

People said there's a distinct sound when you land past 100m on your jump though I didn't really notice that myself. I also just used a video guide and it took me about 15 / 16 of them to make the achievement pop.

Why is he called One-Face now? He still has two faces.

Did the writer of this not realize that Two-Face was a play on the term?

Why is he a Titan?

It's even worse. The comic starts out with a breakout at Arkham, and Batman shows up and specifically asks "Where is Two-face" for no reason other than the writer wanted us to anticipate Two-face.

Also, there is a girl dressed as a sexy bunny running around just because they artist wanted to draw a sexy bunny girl.

This was Dark Knight #1. The fact that DC rebooted and allowed this poo poo to be one of the very first things they chose to represent their new universe turned me off forever.

I played Origins recently and the Riddler sections made me sad because I pretty much agreed with him and didn't get why Batman was trying to stop him. If you collect his blackmail pretty much all of it is about really bad people who legitimately needed their crimes exposed. I felt like a complete rear end in a top hat protecting the biggest scumbags in the city while driving a man to insanity. It was really confusing and made me think that Batman might actually be doing it just to prove that he was smarter.

Didn't the Origins DLC imply that Riddler's information did get out and caused some of the corrupt politicians to resign? So in the end, Riddler helped Gotham, Batman was just a dick about everything.

My favorite kind of Riddler is when he's working inside the law to match wits with Batman and can be a bigger rear end in a top hat than usual.
