    To everyone talking about the graphics and the framerate: Seriously, what are y'all on?
    This game is gorgeous in literally every way. The graphics are astounding. The framerate literally only drops when I come out of a loading screen, then jumps right back to a crystal-clean rate. I play Arkham City on a 10 year old Xbox 360, and the framerate is constantly 30 or below when I play it. This game is not that. It is smooth as butter for literally my entire playthrough. Either y'all think anything below 120 FPS is literally unplayable, or you're playing on some really low-end PCs.

      I've seen streamers with monster rigs having 3080s and even 3090s experience stutters and frame drops atleast that's how it was on launch, There were a lot of discussion centered around the terrible stuttering and frame pacing issues I get that you didn't experience these issues firsthand but that doesn't mean nobody else has.

    I’d say this game is pretty fun for the most part, and I try playing it in a way that doesn’t make me compare it to Arkham because I knew going in this wouldn’t be the next Arkham game. However the real reason that I have a sour taste in my mouth when it comes to this game is the consistent game crashing. Every hour or so since purchasing the game, the game will crash my entire system within an hour or two. Admittedly it has been a couple days since I played the game with its new update so maybe it’s been fixed, but the game should not release in us state where it completely shuts down your PS5 by performing the most basic programs in the game.
    Again I can’t state this enough, the game is fun, but the frustration that comes with having to reset up the entire system every hour or so makes me wonder why am playing Gotham nights instead of any of the Arkham games that have rarely ever caused me any trouble.

      Nah Marvel's avengers is better. And that game Captain America actually comes back to life- in Gotham knights- they tell you directly that Batman is dead and show you his corpse only for him to get brought back with the Lazarus pit anyway which everyone saw coming, and what's even weirder is the ending cutscene implies that the Lazarus pit works fine for Jason but it doesn't work fine for Bruce or Rash al Ghoul? Then after all that effort to bring Bruce back to life and help him fight the Lazarus he just kills himself immediately- the issue with Marvel's avengers was the gameplay mechanics and they've long since fixed that with many patches updates and DLCs- they story is serviceable and accurate to what direction both the comics and the MCU are going. What is Gotham knights even about?? it has nothing to do with the Gotham Knights TV show or the Gotham Knights comic book line.

So now I’m just waiting for new content to drop.

    Warning spoilers.
    This is the first time I've watched one of your videos and very deeply disagreed with you. I was hyped for this game to come out for almost 2 years and when I finally got to play it I was extremely disappointed. Most often it runs at 25 frames per second and the graphics do not look good the graphics in Arkham Knight look a lot better, this looks like a game that would have been cranked out in like 2008 or 2010. I think the story and the cutscenes are the only redeeming quality of this game and that's clearly where a lot of the budget and effort went. I'm shocked that they got such famous voice actors in such a nothing game. They're also bits of the story that I just find blatantly hypocritical- like how they make it such a big deal that red hood is using non-lethal ammunition but he still throws people off of buildings to their demise without catching them and there is literally a cut scene where he thinks about shooting Robin- a lot of these characters seem extremely out of character and the ending was just completely unnecessary. It was a huge waste, I was never a fan of bringing someone back to life just to kill them again anyway- too anyone who is reading this- please don't get Gotham knights, I played through the game in like 4 days at my friend's house, and it was just none fun- about 25% into the game it gets heavily Grindy and the story just tturned straight drop into "oh it looks like none of the other villains are really the problem the court of owls was behind it all along" it's paired with subpar plot twists that you could see coming from a mile away.
    Over all this game feels like it could've easily been released on PS4, looks and feels like a PS3 game and should not be a PS5 exclusive- it's going to take nothing short, of a No Man's sky style miracle to save this game. If you want a good PS5 game please buy God of war Ragnarok it's been wonderful so far. If you're obsessed with Batman like me rock steady is working on a suicide squad video game right now, so just completely ignore Gotham nights we're going to get more Cannon games in the Arkham franchise in the future.
    I love you clown puncher and I appreciate all of your videos but Gotham Knights was genuinely worse than Marvel's avengers, and I've actually canceled my order on my own PS5 because of how poor my experience with the game was. I can still play God of war Ragnarok on my PS4, and I can still play Spider-Man Miles Morales on my PS4 and they both look better than this.

    You can get a really good rhythm with the timed attacks. I felt like it was random almost for part of the game and then something just clicked and I found I was able to do it reliably.
    Also, if you knock someone down, you can grab them regardless of health. There are a lot of ways to do that. But if you finish off a timed attack combo with a heavy melee it'll knock them down and then you can grab them. Even if you've barely put a dent in them.
    I enjoyed the later game more because many of the enemies could dodge more effectively and it give it this feeling almost like it's an intense fight with a really smart NPC.
    You're totally right though. The beginning of the game is slow and basic.

But for me my character is very different because Red Hood is last in terms of gameplay wise because I just find him a little too slow, third is Nightwing love his acrobated skills but kinda basic, Batgirl is second love her gameplay but her voice actress isn't the greatest, and number 1 goes to Robin because I love Tim and I love predator (Predator maps are my favorite in the Arkham games) and Robin is perfect for that in this one.

      You're 100% correct this game looks like it was forged on the PlayStation 3. What the hell happened? Everyone keeps telling me that these graphics look amazing and all I'm remembering is that Peter Parker and Spider-Man PS4 looked comic book accurate until they changed it for the PS5- like a lot of the big releases I was waiting on for the PS5 have really disappointed. There's just really no point in me getting one yet, there are several new games that are going to come out on the PS4 still like God of war Ragnarok.

      @@rhysburns5420 it really seems like force scarcity though I've read a lot of articles and seen a lot of interviews and it feels like Sony is making the PS5 hard to get on purpose- and from what I can tell on PC most of these games are already running on a performance level that could easily be put on the PS4- it feels like Sony is forcing the PS4 out early, and not making big enough steps forward in video games in order for us to really value the PS5. Like the PS5 has so much storage and great 4k graphics, and the only thing I've really been able to enjoy on it so far is movies because none of the video games that have been released really take advantage of it aside from the things that are also on PS4 like Miles Morales and God of war Ragnarok. The only things that I see have this intense graphical upgrade are the things that are on both consoles anyway, and frankly cyberpunk wasn't even bigger a nightmare on PS5 than it was on PS4 and PC.

    Am I the only one who thinks the character designers out of costume are ugly as hell? Maybe I just don’t like the photo realism approach, but nobody looks how I would think they should. Jason Todd especially, he looks like a high school jock with a scar. When I think Jason Todd I think of clay face in hush, and Jason himself in under the red hood. The messy head of hair with a streak of white, the thin face with pointy chin, the perpetual irritation, even after joining the side of good. Not some big stocky square headed guy with a buzz cut and big ass scar.
    The only person who I think looks like the character they’re supposed to be is penguin. He’s got the pointy nose pointed down, the fat folds, and the bushy eyebrows.
    In costume, they look fine, I guess. I’m not a big fan of the need for constantly changing costumes, but I’d be lying if I said I don’t kinda want to see them all. I don’t like batgirl’s costume, but that’s because I always think of BTAS or the 60s show for her costume. Mostly the full head cowl. Whatever that domino mask abomination she wears in this game is suppose to be, it sure doesn’t look good. Night wing looks pretty good, and robin looks fine. I’ve got nothing against Jason’s design, but it’s not the best I’ve seen. I’ve always liked the leather jacket look, and I still think he’s too broad shouldered. I’ve never thought of Jason as a bruiser. I do hate the sleeveless hoodie look though.

    I could make a long comment about my opinion, but you touched on everything perfectly for me. I was looking forward to your review and watching if makes it clear why. You had a true opinion and a fair one at that. This game is good. Only thing I found was the performance. Perhaps you had a great experience, but for me and others there was some noticeable frame rate drops to the mid perhaps even low twenties. I was still able to enjoy what I played, but I did stop (not just for reasons related to the game) and am going to start again soon. They have released a patch recently which you may have had installed, hence why you didn’t notice any performance stability issues. Looking forward to finally playing for real, and hopefully the patch has worked well. Great review!

    Imagine if Kevin Conroy had done Batman for this game although I know it would create confusion since it's not an Arkham game. The beginning when I just started replaying it was just as impactful as before if not more even since I've been watching and playing so much Batman and Kevin is a big part of it all. If he had done the voice, the whole idea of Bruce saying goodbye and how he knows we'll keep Gotham safe would be 10 times as impactful and it would've felt like Kevin's swansong. Instead he did suicide squad and we got to see Batman be made a joke of and I will never forgive what is left of rocksteady that worked on the past Arkham games for what they did to him there. The disrespect to the longtime fans, the halfbaked repetitive boss battle that didn't reflect the intro he got at all and the buildup between that intro and the battle that simultaneously built my expectations up along the way only to find a battle that may have been flashy kinda but was probably the weakest boss battle mechanically in the game.

    Batcycle is about the same speed as the batmobile. Gotham Knights just did a very bad job of giving it any sense of speed. They need to increase FOV with speed and maybe add some screen shake. For some reason they zoom in as you speed up, which is the exact opposite of what they should be doing.
