    Would've loved to see this game come to fruition. The Batbike and including the Nemesis system sounds amazing. Batman Beyond has always been one of my favorite stories throughout all of the DCAU and Bat-lore. One thing I think is always incredibly saddening is that it seems in any Batman story, when he goes away, crime in Gotham continues to spike. To me, it just kinda feels like anything Batman does is never enough for Gotham, but that may also be the point.

    • @WarpingFist
      @WarpingFist  Рік тому +65

      That's the main problem with the story in this game. At the end of Arkham Knight Batman doesn't retire, he just fakes his death, but keeps working in the shadows. So it doesn't make sense that Gotham ends up being a post-apocaliptic city. Also, every city in the world has crime, and they don't end up like that. If robbers and drug dealers want to have a business, the city has to be full of people.

      @@fedeu Warping Fist was saying it looked post-apocalyptic, not that it was and it's that crime has been spiked far greater since Batman was gone for all those years and most buildings and streets have been taken by kingpins. drug lords. thugs and gangs and thats pretty much it and you can still do drug deals and trades without people btw like selling them and making them. Batman at the end of the game fakes his death and yeah he worked under the shadows but then it looks like they went with a route where he eventually quits because Night wing, Robin and Jason are around during that time so it makes sense, there isnt any problem with the story of the game, its that you don't like it 😅

      @@StillSymbiotic You are right about me don't liking it, but it's mostly because it doesn't make sense to me. I know it's just a speculation based on some leaks and art concepts, but I don't think a city like Gotham (usually described as being inspired originally by Chicago and later New York) so full of people, culture and industries, will fall and end up looking like a post apocaliptic city because some drug lords took over. That stuff happens after wars, or major disasters, not people making illegal businesses. We've seen it in the comics many times and I think that a Batman game can have a good story behind it too. This didn't seem like it for me.

    WB Montreal likely went with Gotham knights because it was the “safer” choice. I suppose the bat family is more recognizable than Damian Wayne as Batman. This batman game would’ve likely been a huge gamble. One they weren’t willing to take. GK seems to have borrowed many elements from this cancelled Batman game (batcycle) so this is likely the closest we’ll ever get to experiences this unmade Batman game
    It’s a shame, I think Gotham Knights looks…fine. Im sure it’ll be good but nothing amazing. I cant help but be underwhelmed by what they’ve showed so far.

    I believe WB Games should've continued the Arkham series instead of rebooting it by exploring two different periods in the timeline; the future in a Batman Beyond series with Damian and Arkham Origins 2 and 3 taking place in the 8 year gap before Asylum. Imagine if we got that, two trilogies that further the Arkham continuity and together with Rocksteady's own 3-part series, makes it a 9-Part epic saga like Star Wars' The Skywalker Saga.

    I love the Arkham series and for them to think this was a bad idea sucks. The Batman:Arkham games are still getting attention to this day. A really huge and really good missed opportunity to be released. The only thing we can do is to acknowledge it and make WB know we want it and maybe they’ll do it or not. Gotham Knights is receiving a lot of backlash and WB Montreal should just do what Ubisoft did to Ghost Recon Frontline, cancel the project or at least fix it. Hopefully Gotham Knights doesn’t go bad.

    I like this idea, and think this could've been an awesome game had it been tweaked on more and stuff. But a Batman Beyond-esque Arkham Game sounds AWESOME✨
    I like the idea that it's 10 years later and both Bruce and villains have changed. I don't like Poison Ivy's successor or something coming back, she never really had one and I think it would've been better to just let her go. However Black Mask's organization being ran by his daughter is actaully a pretty damn good idea! Be a good way to tie Red Hood into the story too. I like how Two-Face is also changed- "The Judge" actually sounds pretty cool and reminiscent of his Arkham City appearance.
    Tbh- I like the court of owls being the main antagonist of the game, and all the other villains are just sidequests or something. Damien as a character would've been interesting to see but he needs a pretty good explanation for his absence within the franchise already. Like- both his granddad and mom died. Where was he for all this??
    Terry McGinnis would've been an easier one to pick with. Similar to his meeting with Batman in Batman Beyond- maybe he helps a bloodly and half dead Bruce flee a crime scene and he takes a liking to Terry (similar to Carrie Kelly's debut as well).
    OOH- and the nemesis system sounds awesome!! I would've loved to see that! I guess it would be like the endless knight ar map from AK where it gets harder the more foes you take out. I love the idea that goons arent all the same now and are actually more of a threat. The Militia could've seriously benefited from this system as they were the ones who were the most capable of stopping The Bat.
    All in all I'm really liking the idea of this game and sucks that we arent going to get it. Maybe one day they'll decide to take this gamble but idk hopefully. Thanks for the info✨

  • @todd3143
    @todd3143 Рік тому +5

    the design element of the syringe and hammer of black mask is probably an interpretation of the “carrot and stick”. if you work for black mask, you get the syringe, probably a power-up or a recreational drug; if you’re against her, you get the hammer
    plus, all the villains come off as leaders of organized crimes, instead of solo villains like croc, clayface, or mad hatter, and if the nemesis system is implemented, that might mean we could have instigated these gangs to fight one another, or even get them to fight the final boss with us, like in shadow of mordor/war
    plus the batbike is kind of a strange inclusion. you could get around fine in arkham knight just gliding (my preferred method) and the batmobile was primarily used for tank battles. what did they have in mind for the batbike? cus i genuinely doubt it was just a mode of transportation. maybe we could use it in battle like jess drew from spider verse? would be sick
    but i wouldn’t be surprised to see this game come out half a decade later. wb is a big company and beating a dead horse is part of the business

    The nemesis system probably would have worked almost exactly like shadow of Mordor/war but instead of an army it’s a gang, In those games if a regular thug kills you, they get promoted to captain, so in Arkham game the same would apply. Then the war chiefs (maybe called enforcers) , for example the Talons would fill this for the court of owls. Then the overlord. The overlord would be the leader so like two-face or the penguin. Each gang could control and fight for sections of Gotham and Batman (maybe with the help of the gcpd) would be able to defeat the boss/overlord and take control of the section (example: Black mask is controlling The cauldron, Batman would fight the captains and enforcers, then eventually fight black mask and if he wins he gets the section) but he also needs to defend the section from the criminals, maybe if the game was an apocalyptic Gotham he could fortify the area and bring survivors/civilians to safety there

    idk I'm personally still interested in Gotham Knights and I'm still gonna play it of course, but I would've preferred this tbh. Getting some proper closure for the end of Arkham Knight would be cool, considering how vague the ending is. I also have a thing for legacy characters and time skips like this. It would be so cool to revisit Gotham City after the 10 years have gone by. Seeing what's changed, what's remained the same, seeing some familiar characters, and getting to see some new faces thrown into the mix as well. I've heard people criticize this game for featuring Damian as this universe's Batman Beyond, but personally I'm fine with that. I actually really like Damian and his potential as a character. Terry is cool and all, and while it would be nice to see him appear in a game like this, I have no real issue with them swapping him out for Damian. That's just my opinion tho, and I could totally see why others would disagree with me on that. It's just such a shame that this got cancelled, it could've really been something special.

    Now I'm bummed since I am kinda worried about Gotham Knights. I wouldn't have minded having to play the game as Bruce maybe in the prologue or some back and forth between Bruce and Damian through the game showcasing different styles like when you played other characters. You could actually have done a really cool story that builds their relationship in the first one. But Damian wanting to take things too far eventually fractures their relationship beyond repair in the second one, having Damian decide he wants to take over the league instead. Bruce deciding that Batman was a mistake, retires and does another 10 maybe 20-year time skip. So that the final entry in the series would have been Arkham Beyond where you get to play as Terry. I mean I think many fans have been wanting a Cyberpunk/noir Batman game ever since they put the suit in Arkham City. You might have to split it into two parts since it would not make sense that year one Terry could go up against Damian which would feel like the best way to wrap up the Arkham saga.
