It's pretty clear some idiot executive was like "we have to have a final boss, and it has to be joker" and they couldn't think of anything bc the central conflict between the joker and Batman is defined by it being not really a physical fight

Yeah that cliffhanger ending makes no sense considering what City does. Knight does try to do the whole hey Scarecrow is back and he's mad his face got hosed up.. but.. sadly he rarely does anything.

I will give Orgins one thing, they at least let you beat the poo poo out of Joker up. I was so irriated he was in the game again.

Well, I thought it was always Scarecrow, because it was building to Arkham Knight. There's a hidden area in Asylum that teases Arkham City, and likewise, there's a hidden area in City that hints towards Knight.

Bet it was worth it for all the nerd rage threads for a while where they all went "wtf are you talking about, that's was clearly bane who picked it up, why would killer croc be the sequel's big villain", though.

I digged that run. The way the game is much more focused than Arkham City is still nice.

They could have pulled a "Clue" where they all did it but instead its all about the Joker.

fallout-style dialogue battle where not doing a good job convincing him to give up has you fight waves of mooks, done

c’mon you guys this was easy!! it’s the ending to the killing joke and everything (minus the mook waves)

I wouldn't hate that, I mean the joker in asylum is basically just straight ripped from killing joke anyway

Mass Effect came out 2 years earlier and had the option of letting you convince the main boss to kill himself/talk him out of it. Fallout 2 did the same thing much earlier, surely they could've done something like that.

batman is one of the established series that could totally pull off a mass effect/alpha protocol kind of thing where you make dialog choices to define 'your' batman among like, being a strong bruiser or a spooky scary guy or super gadget boy

that telltale batman i got from ps+ probably does something like this but i want it to be an actual game with beating up guys
