    Honestly feel like Red Hood being a cheat code in-game reflects a lot on Batman as a character because while Batman can decimate all of his rogue's gallery and be a menace worse than Red Hood, he still doesn't break his no-kill rule showing the difficulty of this through his gameplay. That to me is why Red Hood is so broken because he is Batman without limitations.

      Even more, all his sneak takedowns are super fast silent neck snaps, even if you hasten them.
      And, my favorite bit. He has an unlisted combat move. If you use a stun grenade with quickfire (L2+circle) and it connects and stuns an enemy, you can mash melee (square) to do a "beatdown" from a distance but instead of punches the animation is him alternating firing his pistols faster and faster like a normal beatdown.

      You can kinda see this in the final combat section of the game (final if you did all the other side quests first before the finale) with the Joker hallucinations, Batman performs "Joker Takedown" which are essentially Batman actually murdering attacks (flat out breaks Joker spine and shit) which goes to show how much he holds back

The sword can be a gadget with slow but hard-hitting blows, using the sword as a blugeon rather than using the sharp blade. Add in throwing knives instead of batarangs and give his other gadgets more of a makeshift feel, like he's trying to replicate Batman but without all the tech and money, and I think you've got a cool character.

      He was added (from what I can tell) in October or November 2015 which was around the time of the Robin and Catwoman DLC, so he was a decently late addition. Yeah, I think he was only added cause it'd be kind of weird not to. And I'm guessing that he was quite literally a reskin in the base game, but they didn't want to just make him a costume.

  • @comicfan1324

    Honestly, they should’ve reskinned Nightwing’s first-person darts to be a sniper rifle for Deathstroke. The implication would be if you shoot them in the head they immediately die but if you shoot them anywhere else, he would’ve hit them in a nonlethal spot and just fall over in pain.

    Fun fact: Deathstroke is the only playable metahuman in the franchise. What you didn’t mention about him is that his powers _do_ impact gameplay.
    To start, Deathstroke is the only character that passively regenerates health. He’s also the strongest playable character in the series, which lets you punch through walls and remove grate covers with a single button press. When using the Disarm and Destroy move, Deathstroke knocks the enemy down when disarming them instead of just pushing them away.

      Probably because they hadn't quite figured out how to make those kinds of weapons work for the freeflow combat. You'll notice Arkham Joker only gets one shot, and Jason has to actually stand in place and unload several (How they eventually got around the damage the guns theoretically do, by having it be a long-form interruptable).
      As for swords the only time you use a sword in the Arkham games as I recall is against Clayface and his little clay minions who are chopped apart with every hit, which even suspended the T-rating would mean having to create a whole "dismemberment" system for would probably have slaughtered the game's tone and probably would have made freeflow combat harder as you wouldn't have thugs to combo off of.

    I think, Azerel is probably the most disappointing character. Even with how disappointing knight wing is in Arkham knight, at least he has at least one or two unique gadgets still. Azriel is just a worse version of Batman.
    So this so I would’ve fixed it:
    First, before you even meet Azriel, in his subplot, you can learn at the GCPD, that a crate full of Batman/super villain evidence has been stolen:
    • A Couple Batarangs (Batman throws enough of those that criminals and doesn’t go back to pick them up. So, I wouldn’t be surprised if the GCPD got a hold of one or two.)
    • The Shock Gloves
    • Prototype Freeze Grenades
    • Deathstroke’s grappling gun
    You figure out once you start playing as Azriel, that he was the one who broke into the police station and took the weapons (seeing as he was once an officer, he could definitely sneak his way in.)
    In addition, by using whatever materials he could get his hands on, he built replicas of some of Batman’s gadgets:
    • Explosive Gel Gun (Origins: Blackgate)
    • Ultra Bat-Claw
    • Sonic Batarang
    And, as a fun callback, he still has access to the remote control Batarang Batman through at him in Arkham City
    Since he simply reusing gadgets from throughout the series, it seems within the realm of possibility that he could have all of these, since they would just have to re-create the assets, but it would make him feel unique, and now I having him use gadgets that are familiar to us long time fans of the series (as he uses gadgets used in all three prior Arkham games. That way he still feels like a Batman rip off, but unique from this specific playable Batman.)

There's actually also a recoverable, mostly finished Joker for use in challenge maps that people found by modding the game.

The bomb attracts goons functioning as her own lure that also works as a killing explosive gel. The Snare traps work as a baterang the way you can quick fire them, but also functions as a freeze grenade the way it traps people for long periods of time, it can help a lot with escaping situations. I love her movement and i find her to feel pretty nice to control once you've played her for a while (I'm a little bit of a harley quinn fan so she's by far my most played character)

    Arkham city made me want a catwoman game so badly. Like yes Batman is objectively the better playable character. He just has way more versatility and gadgets because he’s the star. But catwoman was so much more fun to play as! And imagine a more close-quarters open world game where you’re a thief and you get quests from people to retrieve items and have to find your own way to do it, without the game telling you “you can do it loud or quiet, here are your 2 options”. You just know the location and it’s your job to figure out how you’ll get in and out. Trial and error, and homework. You have to case the place to learn peoples movements, or you can improvise and just run in and hope for the best. You steal stuff on your own time as well, just to sell to vendors to get new gear and stuff. Have your own player home you can decorate, etc. like a fully-fledged open world RPG. But less vertical of an open world due to her limitations. Hence the close-quarters type of world. You’re not Batman flying above the city quickly. Or they could just give her a better way to traverse the map to fix that. But it would just be a really fun and different experience.

    • @Nathan35077
