Batman Arkham Thread "I am vengeance... I am the night..."


Recommended Posts

It's funny to watch people argue about it. It's just fueled two sides of people who are arguing with almost nothing to go on - people who like the season pass are bickering that it's a sign of more things to come (with future DLC being made by Rocksteady) and people who hate it saying that it doesn't justify the $40 cost.

The only real valid argument is that they want people to pay $40 extra without even giving much of a suggestion as to how much extra that will get you over six months. Everything else is just pointless arguing, which is what video game nerds are truly into.

It's a messed up industry.

That last paragraph is my issue with it. None the less GameStop gave me $45 for it so I happily traded it in.

The 1989 DLC dropped a few days ago. Kinda fun for those with that kinda of nostalgic love for those films. The tracks have a lot of elements from the films and Danny Elfman's theme plays in the background. Skins are alright if you're into those.

 

Here's a list of content for September if anyone is still following:

  • Crime Fighter Challenge Pack #1 (Sept. 1): Receive 6 AR challenges for Batman, Nightwing, Robin and Catwoman. This expansive challenge pack allows focused training in Freeflow Combat and Invisible Predator stealth incursion.
  • GCPD Lockdown (Later in Sept.): Set after the events of Arkham Knight, play as Nightwing to stop the Penguin from breaking out of the Gotham City Police Department in this thrilling story pack.
  • 2008 Tumbler Batmobile Pack (Later in Sept.): Inspired by the 2008 movie The Dark Knight, intimidate your foes with the Tumbler Batmobile and race through two themed tracks.
  • Original Arkham Batman Skin (Later in Sept.): Fight the war against Gotham City with the original Arkham Asylum Batman costume.

So, I finally beat this 100% tonight - started playing in September. Can someone please tell me why it was so important to complete all side missions before the end? I did this and I don't know what I should have been looking for in the credits or whatever. 

 

It looks like I could have just beat the game then complete the side missions: 

 

then activate Knightfall protocol - what is this anyway? Just Batman quitting?

You just have to finish all the side missions before you can

initiate Knightfall

I think. Kind of silly, but I think they

just want you to at least put all the baddies away before Batman quits, otherwise it wouldn't be very Batman-like of him.

I donno.

That makes sense, thank you.

 

I did like the game, the Batmobile could get tedious but I see where it did add great gameplay.

I beat Arkham Asylum complete and was one riddle away from a complete Arkham City game (it was a Catwoman trophy).

I hear ya on that Batmobile stuff. I enjoyed it at first, but yeah, it wears on you. This is the first one I'll probably 100% (still haven't done it. getting all those damn riddler trophies is tedious as shit too.)
