Riddler is also the only villain aside from Joker who's able to get under Strange's skin. It's not really made clear whether or not Strange would've actually let him in on the Arkham City plan like he said he would in one of his interview tapes, though I rather doubt it.

I'm not sure Strange ever really needed to let him in on anything. For a guy everybody writes off as a side villain that Batman doesn't need to focus on, Eddie sure seems to get into interesting places. There's riddles and trophies in Panessa Movie Studios long before Scarecrow busts into it to take Robin. Eddie would have to be loving blind to place all of those and not see the big Bat-lab, even aside from the fact that there doesn't seem to be any other way to get into the studios besides the elevator. Was he the one who told Harley about the Jokerized people?

He even has a riddle involving scanning Barbara's hidden Batsuit in the clock tower. How did the gently caress did he know that was there? And don't tell me Jason told him - as far as I could tell, Jason only had her kidnapped at all because he wanted her out of the line of fire and only told Scarecrow because he sort of had to. And it's not like Scarecrow was communicating every detail of his plan to the other villains. I don't think he even communicated his Cloudburst plan to them - most of the villains are in ground-level buildings that won't protect them from fear gas. Only Eddie has an underground bunker.

It's one of the interview tapes

Presumably since Henry got the Joker's memories as well as his intellect and cunning, he seduced Harley, concluded that if something was happening to him, it was happening to others, and that Batman would try to cure him. He let himself get taken in by Batman to serve as a Trojan horse.


It's really loving stupid. Then again nothing about the Joker in this game really makes sense.

Ah yes, the Trojan Joker ploy. Of course.

I don't remember if the tapes were for Henry or Harley but either way he sets up the whole thing before he gets taken in for examination. Then when Robin is distracted he makes a phone call or something.

I would assume that once the Batgirl DLC hits PC, you would be able to play that campaign looking like this if you wanted to, and you'd have the Batgirl gadgets to go with it.

So how likely is it that with Pyg referencing "Mother" that any future Bat game is not only going to involve Damian somehow as the Ghost of Batman/Bruce Wayne, but of course, a war against a Lazarus fresh Talia?

So I'm at the point where I need to board the Stagg Airship, and I'm kind of hosed because the airship in question isn't actually rendering, and even if I land on the invisible airship and get inside it, the scripting's all hosed and nothing happens. I don't suppose anyone has any fixes?

Right, so I've 200%ed the game and got 67 out of 69 stars for the AR challenges but the David and Goliath challenge and the other Cobra Tank one can just go and gently caress themselves right off. I hate them with a passion, and after spending the last hour trying to three-star them, I give up.

Congratulations, Rocksteady, you've beaten me. I'm now a worthless shell of a man because I can't 100% your loving game. What the gently caress is a stealth tank battle anyway? You give me the shits, I'm going back to adventure games.

Lol. I feel like 100% is good enough. I got stuck in new game + in the subway fight with ninjas and 3+ brutes. I tried the fight like 10 times and just lost interest

Just beat the game - not 100%, but resolved the main storyline.

God drat. I wasn't really high on this game when it was in development, but lovely PC port aside this was loving excellent. Plays as well as Batman ever has, and the plot takes the "Literally every goddamn villain out there piles on Bats at once and wears him down over one hellish night" framework to its furthest extreme in a way that worked really well. Loved what they did with Scarecrow as the main baddie as well, and all the Joker poo poo was fantastic as well.
