While I do not like the Jokerification of Harley, I'mtoo invested in antihero harley from other media, I do gotta say I dig her costume in that hospital mission.

I beat Gotham Knights with Babs, that was a cute story. Aside from the thing with Harley, I had no problems with the game. The loot system can be a bit annoying if you forget to upgrade after patrolling in the early game. Enemies will go from being taken out in three or four hits to needing dozens and not even falling to your skills, but upgrading to level appropriate gear puts things back to normal. Gonna try another run as Jason.

I'm actually fine with all the side quests in both GK and MS, because they're entierly optional. I took a bit over 30 nights on my first pass of Gotham Knights because I would just go out and clear all the premeditated crimes, all the pop up crimes, run out of health packs and head back to the belfrey. Once I hit 30 and realized I wasn't getting levels anymore, I beelined the story and finished quick. With Midnight Suns, I did a lot of non-story missions to build freindship or get resoueces, but it was all voluntary. When I decided to focus on the story, it went really quick.

This is good open world design to me, none of this ever felt mandatory like in Zero Dawn or God of War or Spider-Man. Some things could be cut in knights, the book pages most def. Have either batarangs or plaques, not both. But the travel challenges were fine. The silly loot parkour was fine.

With Midnight suns, streamlining the abby activities would be great. Having to navigate menues and hope to remember what cards i need when I pop open a coil, which takes entierly too long and then go to a whole different section to upgrade the cards I do get? Not being able to mass delete.

Anyways, wherever Dark Tznimnince is, I hope that little pervert got this game became Red Hood is real fun.

Is MS a free-roaming game too? ..I still haven't played it yet. Been playing a lot of Phasmophobia and Gotham Knights.

Oh I bought Sonic Frontiers too and haven't played it.

Yeah it's not free roaming, but only story missions advance the plot, so if you don't want to move forward, you can pick from any of the missions available in the mission select table that aren't labeled "story"

Gotham Knights:

I'm in new game plus and trying to get Nth Metal to craft legendaries. Every post and youtube tip I see says do Very Hard criminal deals, but I've never gotten a drop from any of these, only when turning in my penguin challenges. That gets me like 25-50 pieces when I need hundreds to thousands of the poo poo to make a single item. Any tips? Everything I see is from a few months ago so I'm wondering if a patch changed things.

Yup. On the crafting results screen there's a gear icon with a swooshing arrow pointing up next to the name of the item when it's the upgraded version. Some pretty nice boosts, like hundreds more in damage or higher Momentum Gen %. I don't know what the odds are for getting it but on average it's been within a few rolls.

I did Floor 30 quite a lot for a while there and amassed a warchest from it.


Got to floor 29 with a rando but the two of us just could not do it. I blame myself for using a poison weapon on robin when fighting owls. Their Batgirl was a loving monster though.

Because it's a shooter.

It's impressive that it's looking like it will actually be worse than Avengers.

Yeah, this is some generic game they slapped a DC license onto. I know when given the option to play King Shark, my first thought is "Wow, what kind of gun does he use?"

Lobok posted:

I think it's kind of a double-whammy because of poison vs. Owls but also because poison damages enemies but isn't good for actually stopping them. So in a mission trying to protect something like a console it's a weak form of crowd control. Freeze is good, Concussive is even better.

And I don't know if they patched it out but for a while there I was running a nice little combo with Robin that seemed broken for how effective it was. Would Freeze a guy, drop a decoy, and this for some reason the game considers as full instant stealth and I could do a Stealth or Ambush Takedown on the frozen enemy. As long as the decoy was up I could Takedown anyone frozen to chain KOs together (decoy doesn't usually last long though).


Yeah nothing puts me back into stealth except loving sitting around a corner hiding for a minute. I keep trying to drop a decoy and then use the invisibility power, but by the time that poo poo rear end power triggers, something has hit me and knocked me out of it, or something is following me as I slowly walk away because running cancels it.

eDIT: When do enemies in Gotham Knights single player increase their levels? I play at off hours, so MP isn't realiable and I want to get thos elevel 60 drops, but on NG+ enemies have been level 49-51 for a number of missions now despite robin using level 55 gear.

I was interested in midnight sons but the presence of microtransactions made it an instant no for me. I have problems with compulsive spending and since midnight sons looks like a fun game the chance I'd put myself in a financial hole was too high.

Yeah it think it's a total of three costumes or something? Your character has a bunch of costumes you unlock through play and in game currency that's easy to earn and you can mix and match parts. Every other character has three or four other costumes they can wear too, plus all those costumes have color schemes. I can't even remember seeing an in game option to purchase stuff with real money, aside from the DLC.

It depends on when they played, but I do believe the OP should tell us when they played so we can LMAO.

Still laughing they quit after dying when they dropped in their first game. It is a causal competitive MP. You won't win right away.

If OP wants to try again I'm more than willing to play with them and give them tips and tricks. This goes for anyone and it is a good time to start playing with the new season starting today.

THanks, but i was predisposed to dislike the game anyway, I don't like competitive games. but it was talked up so drat much on that show that even knowing I wouldn't like i still dropped ten bucks on a skin before I even played because those are the exact type of mtx that cut through all my defenses. I don't give a poo poo about xp boosts or new weapons, it's the stuff that lets you customize your appearance that get me.

Jeez, I can't imagine a less appealing character to play one of these games with than that Joker design. I assume it's not Hamill voicing him but I don't think that'd save it.

As an aside I also very much dislike the Harley voice actor they seem to be using for a lot of these sorts of projects, she makes it a little too much like baby talk imo and it creeps me out. Obviously the TAS actress died and wasn't doing it even when she was alive but they could at least just pay Kaley Cuoco the cash money and get her to do it, her Harley is pretty good and that take is what they seem to be going for with her design, being fully over the Joker and such.

I actually kind of like 50's greaser joker there.
