bunnyofdoom posted:So, at the start of the game, based off that cinematic, it's at Pauly's diner. I was replaying Asylum today, and in the opening cutscene, the batmobile drives by Pauly's diner. Nice tiny callback. It's a reference to Paul Dini

Terrible Horse posted:An LA Noire type model would be a nice change from the "one CRAZY night in Gotham" used in the Arkham games LA Noire had some of the worst open world gameplay I have ever seen. It was more sterile than any of the Arkham games, and there's poo poo to do in LA. blackguy32 posted:This compared to the boss fights from Arkham City. I mean when you compare that with boring poo poo like the Solomon Grundy fight or pretty much anything from Asylum, Origins boss fights are downright amazing in comparison. The boss fights in Asylum were a titan, Bane (who's basically a titan), two titans, three titans, Ivy, another two titans, and the Joker titan. So much variety! And the boss fights in City really blew outside of Freeze. Edit: I guess Zsasz was sort of a boss in Asylum, though he was basically nothing more than a glorified tutorial in his appearances.

evilmiera posted:What? That's idiotic. You could barely get the bad guys in gotham to stay in the same room together without trying to kill the other, let alone somehow fund acquiring any sort of weapons together, especially considering Batman had free reign more or less to take them all out after Arkham City. They could have used a series of video game kickstarter to leech funds off the unassuming

TheJoker138 posted:Eh, if it's all just abandoned buildings with no one being hurt, I can see how that one might slip through the cracks while he's busy crippling Killer Moth or whatever. That's ignoring the intro on how basically nothing happened in Gotham and crime was dropping rapidly. A bunch of suspicious fires should have been on his radar, not something he is literally taken aback in shock by everyone he rescues a firefighter.

Electrocutioner Real hurthling! posted:why does batman play dumb to the firemen about firefly? you find out about firefly after the first burning station but batman keeps asking all the firemen about strange arsons for the rest of the game. Bad writing, and since they are asynchronous events, there's no grantee that Batman has found Firefly before coming to the revelation. But mostly bad writing.

So if Joker infected Batman with his deadly blood in City which just about killed him in the game. Then you had a bunch of random people who had been infected at about the same time who lived for like a year without issue?

Knuc U Kinte posted:Here's how I saw the Joker blood thing: Batman cured himself at the end of City. When he discovered the other infected, their sickness had already manifested in them. batman made a cage for himself out of fear that he too would become like them. When he got hit with fear toxin, he literally started believing he would become a Joker...blah blah blah events of the game happen, he overcomes that fear in the final encounter with Scarecrow. I would like to think that to, but the game goes out of its way to show he had physical changes too And also if he had a cure why the gently caress didn't he use it in the people as well. Ugh. I know I shouldn't try to dissect bad comic book writing but I can't help myself.

CJacobs posted:He didn't have a cure, Joker broke the last existing vial of it when he jumped on Bats in Arkham City's ending. When Batman is talking to Mr. Freeze about it when he actually makes it in the first place, Freeze specifies that the vials he makes and puts in the safe are the only ones he can make. And since Ra's is dead by the time the end of Arkham City happens, Batman doesn't have another chance to extract his juicy Al Ghul lifeforce to get a shot at making another one. Yes the resources in Arkham City were much more limited because it was a prison. It isn't like Batman is the head of a multi billion dollar company heavily invested in medicine or anything.

ImpAtom posted:A symptom that explicitly gives them knowledge and capabilities they wouldn't have normally that happens to match what the Joker has but in turn is somehow not the Joker's memory. It's just a special infection symptom that gives them generic explosive and hacking capabilities. That's a real drat far stretch when somehow "The Joker passes along his genetic memory via blood transfusion" is the less complex answer. It's loving stupid either way

How much is it going to hurt me to lose head joker whenever I get done doing the major sidequest stuff, also when Deathstroke show up? Slade shows up once you beat up the Knight.

The Cloudburst really sucks unless you of nothing but laps around the movie studio and docks, because it's a pretty simple oval that breaks his LOS very quickly. Otherwise you're probably going to crash into something in Chinatown and die quickly

Discendo Vox posted:I'm wondering if Deathstroke and Firefly were mid-development executive-forced additions to the game. Neither seems particularly well-developed- though this game is still head and shoulders above Origins from a design perspective, setting the PC port problems aside. The only well developed side quests were Pyg and the Penguin. Everything else is cookie cutter from other things to do in the game, just plain lovely (Riddler, Militia), or clearly lacking.

ImpAtom posted:I wouldn't have minded Two-Face if it didn't feel so... rushed. Like you get it and can do all three quests as soon as you get it and there's very little buildup or escalation. Even taking down Two-Face doesn't feel as significant as it did in City and he was an absolute sideshow there. It feels like they could have at least included something to make him stand out more. You can fling him up an escalator, isn't that enough?

Emron posted:I just started playing this last night. Up through finishing ACE chemicals. Just one question: does this game have any of the sort of hidden stuff referencing various characters, the picture based riddles, and so on? I've got a bigass city to fly around, but so far it feels like nothing's actually there to land for other than these firefighter and serial killer missions. Anything that actually involves a photo riddle is marked as [] on the riddle page. There's a few that are pretty drat abstract, but most are pretty fair.

Calaveron posted:Well, maybe figured out is too strong a word but like the idea was definitely niggling the back of his skull and his subconscious/Joker was remembering it to both reassure himself that Todd was definitely dead but also what if... The niggling doubt was Tim getting attacked in the secret base after oracle was attacked in a similar fashion. Start up the Jason guilt trip.

The Reverand Me posted:I've tried 4 times and I can't make the drat thing work. I can start a beatdown and counter the other guys but then I'll get caught by a knife or I'll counter someone and Batman just kicks the doll guy in the face instead of continuing the beatdown. I've never had this much trouble with a Arkham boss. The dolls exist only to let you build up combo so you can slam Pyg's face into the surgical table with an environmental attack. Once you get to like 3 left, they won't go down any more and just get knocked down and get back up. Agreed that its pretty bad, because Pyg is the only enemy in the game that avoids getting into melee range and there's no reason to think the surgical table is an environmental takedown.

Kurtofan posted:At the start of the fight there's a sequence that says "these dolls are invincible". Nah, it just says they're highly resistant to pain....and then you can actually take them down. Like, you can actually KO 2 or 3 of them with the KO takedown. So that entire conversation is loving meaningless. Why would you focus and KO them? You can't attack Pyg directly. He will always keep the table in between you and him, no matter how stupid it is. You might think "Hey, I can stun him with a blade counter" and then try to attack him. But no, he still moves the goddamned table. So you might try beating up the dolls in an endless fashion, so you somehow might trigger Pyg to move a new phase where he can actually take damage. Broseph Brostar posted:Except the part where the table and him turn bright blue like every other environmental takedown, and you don't need a combo to do one either. Yes, I am aware that the table finally turned blue after about 10 minutes of doing the damned fight, and after trying to attack Pyg for the 5 or 6th time. It actually clued me in on how it was supposed to go down. It doesn't turn blue when its in the room during the previous round of fighting. It is only usable in one fight in the entire game. edit: It's a really easy fight once you know the trick. But it's poorly laid out and breaks a lot of the conventions of the game's combat, which can be frustrating given a lack of direction and possible oversight of being able to KO the seemingly un-KOable Dollotrons.

Codependent Poster posted:No, it doesn't do that. There is one trophy protected by a few mines that need to be disarmed. It's in the haunted house sound stage in the movie studios. That requires an update to the disruptor. That's probably the only one, short of some of the time trial ones, where its probably not required, but made much easier with grapnel boost & car launch upgrades.
