I just realized why he was "Pyg", and the"Pig". He's taken his name after the Greek legend of Pygmalion, who was a sculptor so perfect he fell in love with his most beautiful statue, which a goddess made into a real person. The pig thing was just incidental.
Professor Pyg was also partly inspired by the play Pygmalion which became a musical film, "My Fair Lady". Pyg is like a deranged Henry Higgins and the Dollotrons are like mindless, robotic Eliza Dolittles. X)
I remember first playing this, thinking, "This is obviously Hush. Why bother being discreet?" It was a very pleasant surprise being proven wrong and being introduced to a new sadistic villain.
GZilla311 you know at this point, hes probably done with speeches. Repeat criminals like Riddler have heard it all before and like Pyg have such assurance in that they're in the right that anything Batman says will fall on deaf ears. Especially since they're fixing the world, not him!
Batman has no shortage of deadly enemies, many of whom are incredibly weird or have disturbing obsessions, but this guy is *horrifying.* Even Joker's Ghost admits he's a lunatic.
To an extent, that is probably because the Joker is more of a sociopath rather than a psychopath like Professor Pyg. From my understanding, a psychopath usually describes someone who is legitimately lost in their own reality and cannot think morally/rationally, such as Norman Bates. It is the equivalent of a man actually thinking 1 + 1 = 3. Because they have their own reality to naturally hide away in, I heard a psychopath can be better at appearing outwardly normal to people and concealing their demented side until it has an opportunity to show itself. A sociopath can behave in similarly anti-social and grotesque ways, but it is more motivated by a craving for violence and lack empathy towards other human beings, because they suppress their emotions and/or literally do not feel any. Their ability to think logically and make calculated decisions is still functioning properly. With that analogy of math, a sociopath would be like someone who knows full well that 1 + 1 = 2, but simply does not care about following the rules. The Joker is a violent and sadistic serial killer, but aside from having trouble remembering his own past, he is still technically sane and only feigns insanity to avoid being put on death row. His main motivation is his obsession with becoming infamous and proving his nihilistic philosophy, with no remorse how many people he kills or how brutally in order to accomplish his goal. He admits many times to Batman that he knows how monstrous his actions are, unlike Pyg who has no concept of right and wrong to begin with. *EDIT: A few months after posting this, I looked the terms up more, and it seems I have confused the terms “psychopath” and “psychotic”. Apparently, the latter is when a person has bouts of psychosis and cannot think rationally at times, while psychopath implies that a person can still make properly calculated decisions and understand reality just fine, but still is potentially prone to lack of empathy towards others, anti-social behaviors, and/or abusive tendencies. Sociopath usually refers to people who behave that way mainly due to environmental upbringing and/or life choices, while people use psychopath to describe scenarios when the most likely contributing factor is genetics/psychology (such as a region of the person’s brain that aids in empathy being underdeveloped).*
Pyg creeps the shit out of me; driving along and hearing opera music next to a strung up body is creepy enough, let alone Valentin's face and mannerisms. I swear he is more demented than the Joker.
Lord MacNeal Much more demented. Even Joker calls him a lunatic. At least Joker is likable because although he is insane, he is charismatic, has a intelligence that rivals Batman and Lex Luthor’s, is very successful and would be unstoppable if Batman didn’t exist and has very loyal henchmen(including Harley). Even though some of them may defect, sometimes Harley herself may do this. Joker is also very skilled in various areas such as chemistry and marksmanship.

These have always been my favorite parts of the “Arkham” games. Setting up crime scenes, scanning tissue, rebuilding events. Really put you into the detective side of Batman.
One thing I noticed after playing through the game and looking at the John Doe's, as they're called. If you analyze them in detective mode in the GCPD prison cells, they're constantly terrified. Not calm. Not distressed. Not agitated. Terrified. They're basically living in constant terror as they're standing there. And when you take into account all the mutilation that Valentin did, it kinda of helps settles in how disturbing this shit really is.
@@asgardninja9674 maybe. But still Valentin tortured and disfigured them into being his slaves or "dollotrons" as he calls them. The psychological as well as physical trauma still afflicts them. Or they just want their Pyg back. Know what I mean?
@@zboy1152 Just knowing that Pyg is voiced by Mung Daal’s voice actor makes this game super dark. I’m already frightened for what Gotham knights and Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League might have in store. Prepare vomit bags.
Anyone else loved how this side mission felt very much like a detective case? Hearing all these details of the victims was really intriguing, and finding out who done it was interesting, 🙂 Edit: 3 years later, thanks for the likes people! 😄
This is definitely my favorite side mission I love how it has a perfect blend of detective work in finding out who mutilated and murder these innocent people and then finding out they were turned into monsters by a madman. Ending it all with an amazing boss fight.
Harvey Wroot joker isn’t so deranged, but he’s definitely insane. Unrepentant homicidal maniac? Yes. Anywhere near as deranged as Pyg? No. He’s just happy in chaos. Meanwhile, Pyg mutliates and kills people for reasons of “perfection.”
Yeah he’s sadistically deranged, joker is aware of his insanity but pyg is lost in his own world unaware of reality probably the only Batman villain I can think is as deranged as him is the dollmaker
Archangel980 But that's the thing that makes Joker even more evil than Pyg....he knows what he does is wrong he just doesn't care. Pyg thinks what he's doing is right in some weird and strange view on the world. So you can't really say he's evil since he doesn't know what he's doing is fucked up. He's just insane and thinks he's helping. Joker doesn't give a shit and will just kill you because it's funny to him. While of course I would choose to die by Joker instead of Pyg though. The thought of that man "perfecting me" is just bone chilling.
The most terrifying monsters aren't the ones of our own creation. No, then at least we can give them weaknesses. The scariest monsters are the ones that look like us. Killer Croc? Just electrocute him. Joker? Bitch, please, the Batman's been kicking his ass since 1941. Scarecrow? He's a guy with a bag on his head and some trippy drugs. (Well, this time he's upped the ante, but Batman's defeated him dozens of times before.) But what they all have in common is that they don't look like regular people. That's what makes villains like Zsasz and Pyg so scary.
@@beholdthegriffin2346 I mean, Scarecrow's character isn't that far off from the freakishly inhumane stuff the CIA was pulling in the 60's/70's. Breaking a mind from fear toxin? Not all that different from Subproject 68's operational goals
I just noticed something: As you identify each victim, when you begin scanning the next one the initial number of missing persons decreases by one. Now that's attention to detail.
That’s the idea, you see the victim had a tattoo removal, then the missing persons database filters through any missing people who had a tattoo removed. Go on with other noticeable features until there’s only one person the victim could be.
Maybe because pyg seems to hit on the most horrifying aspects of villains. He’s a real person like Bruce but kills for pleasure and perfection. He’s like some real life killers who perform horrible acts on people. Meanwhile most other batman villains, while incredibly messed up, have plenty of aspects that distinguish them as less horrifying because of the unrealistic things that make them villains
“It brings to mind a spate of murders at the beginning of your career. It was Halloween then if I’m not mistaken, turned out to be rather a long one at that.” I absolutely love that Long Halloween reference and how it confirms the events of that story happened in the Arkhamverse.
A lot of comic book stories happened in the Arkhamverse. Here's the ones I know of. The Long Halloween (obviously). The Killing Joke (modified). Knightfall (modified). A Death in the Family. One Year. Mad Love.
@Tank dempsey how about use you're common sense he wasn't telling anybody to shut up he clearly said shut up pyg which is the person with the video you dumb ass are you 6 or what? Idiot.
@@odianoseosazuwa4004 I think he was saying that to Pyg as well... He was just going along with the joke... 😐 Damn those comments: always leaving room for misunderstandings in the phrasing! 😑
This side mission is the creepiest and the most disturbing in this game which is perfect honestly. To add to the horror, one of the victims was in Tucson, where i live right now. and the other one in Little Rock, where my best friend lives.
If anything happens to either of you, Batman will avenge you. Well, no, he won't, he'll just go through the revolving door at Arkham. The Red Hood will probably avenge you.
It’s Dwight Schultz! You’ve probably heard him as Dr. Animo in every Ben 10 series, or Mung Daal in Chowder or seen him as Howling Mad Murdock in the original A-Team. He’s an incredibly talented actor but Pyg in this game is among his finest work.
Stand User: Bruce Wayne Stand: Batman Abilities: Cause other stand users who see it to be struck with fear, so much so, they lose the will to fight entirely.
@@alexandrehenrique7203 "specific birthmark" matches: 1659 seems right, you don't think there's a database that contains the exact patterns of birthmarks on people's chests? The number 1659 probably shows the amount of people with a birthmark on their right chest.
I think my favorite part about this whole mission is how calm the Dollotrons move throughout the fight. No fighting stance, no fists up in the air, just casual walking towards Batman. Really adds to the creep factor of this whole mission, and helps make it one of my favorites ^^.
I love how the opera music goes from beautiful and classy to somber and depressing when Batman begins to scan the body. Edit: I know I’m not the only one who noticed that detail.
You know, I give the ESRB a lot of crap about giving this game an M-rating, but after playing through these side missions, I think they had a pretty legitimate reason.
Deacon Blackfire: ""From what hellish pit did you emerge?"Deathstroke: "I knew a guy in Hanoi. Used to make wallets out of dead Vietcong. You guys would hit it off."Joker: "Now old pig-face here, total lunatic."Riddler: "Please cease with these mindless inanities. It is beneath my brilliance to be cooped up with one so clearly insane."Two-Face: "Sick freak!"You know something's REALLY wrong when lunatics call someone insane!
I really like the fact that they included the real life photos of the producers. Really puts a realism into these crimes. Nobody should have to meet their demise because of don’t some lunatic . Just imagine.. being born and living your life just to wind up a victim of some lunatic

AmazingGaming I was just thinking that the other day. How cool would it be if Rocksteady released story packs like Cold, Cold, Heart and the upcoming Batgirl DLC based on the comics?
REDKNIGHT Oh I know but have the whole story about a classic arc. For example, having the main arc find the killer that kills on holidays a la Long Halloween, but it can be the video game take on it.
AmazingGaming Arkham Asylum took plot elements from the novels "Arkham Asylum: Living Hell" and more so "Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth".
Imagine a kid buying this game thinking it's gonna be a cool lighthearted beat em up and then goes on to find a guy who cuts open dead bodies and a man-bat hybrid. Arkham Knight is one of the most unsettling Batman related media I've seen
Kind of a requirement to playing this kind of insane person. Act like what horrible thing they are doing is the most beautiful thing ever. Gives them purpose... Makes them whole...
I like how this guy was intentionally created to be so detached from reality that he would be the craziest villain in Batman comics. I don’t think they disappointed. Certainly others are weirder, but this guy takes the cake in “batshit insane”.
Pyg really is horrifying. I wanted to find out all the paths and fights and enemies that Batman faces, but instead I was given an incredibly terrifying, disturbed, and truly remorseless villain. Bravo, Rocksteady. Bravo. You portrayed one of the most depraved criminals on all of comic history, if not the most, because the Joker just has an inch on him with his weird attraction to Batman while also setting up elaborate traps to kill him. And you know what? You did it well. I hope you're happy. Edit: 15:58-16:00 Nice voice crack, Pyg. A whole two seconds long.
I don’t think it specifically says in the game what Pyg does to his victims. In the comics, it’s stated that he melts dollotron masks to the faces of his victims before lobotomizing them to make them obedient. Pyg is hands down Batman’s most insane villain.
@@Mario87456 I feel like the only Batman Villains who would get an insanity plea would be Pyg, Mad Hatter, and Two-Face. They are literally the only ones (well the only ones that I can think of rn) that are fully or partly unaware of their actions. Everyone else would have gotten a death penalty long ago but Gotham sucks ass.
Good grief how does Bats not get scared or nervous when he fights these crazy sadistic lunatics, i loves how he's always so brave regardless of what's going on, nothing phases him the level of mental training must be ridiculous.
Batman, in this game, pretty much stopped feeling emotions after Arkham City, which would mean things like Pyg and Man-Bat don't spook him since he doesn't care. Batman was surprised by Hush in Arkham City, that's probably the only time we see him startled. Batman is pretty emotional in Arkham Origins, though.
My guy just brushed of Scarecrow’s toxin, that stuff increases your sense of fear to a serious level, and Batman just ignored it. I don’t think he can physically feel fear
This is the kind of mission I always wanted: a good ol' murder mystery. At the same time, MAN, having to lay a beatdown on those innocent people, just because they were brainwashed? That's just tragic. This whole mission kinda makes me feel dirty afterward. I'm never gonna hear Mung Daal's voice the same way again.
@@croatiangroyper5195 I guess the creators of this game thought that it would be cooler to see Batman and Deathstroke fight each other in their own vehicles. It is cool, I won’t deny that, but I also share your disappointment in there being no fist fight with them too.
Issac Mendez Character named Issac Mendez in _Heroes_. Sorry, I couldn't resist. You should watch it if you hadn't. The last three seasons of it are pretty bad but the first is amazing.
11:39 "It appears she went missing in Huntsville, Alabama." As someone who is from Tuscaloosa and has several former classmates who moved to Huntsville, this part genuinely gives me the creeps. The thought of Professor Pyg doing his Dollotron experiments on them makes my skin crawl.
Considering that Pyg is a more realistic villain, like Zsasz, that does make him more frightening when hearing the name of your local town being mentioned that a serial killer was around, knowing that you could've been next.
@@Samuel152 Living here is kind of scary enough already with all the gun crazy neo-Confederate hillbillies and Greek life rapists/backstabbers who control everything here in a "secret" organization called The Machine.

***** Can totally see that happening. Dode: "Hey Pyg got a job for ya, name's Caitlyn Jenner." Pyg: "You have Pyg's interest." Dode: "Yeah need you to make her...him...it perfect."
This convinced me that Professor Pyg is the most disturbing Batman villain, before this I only knew of Professor Pyg from Beware the Batman, so it was especially shocking for me to see what he's really like
@@fish_and-chips He has - he's absolutely deranged. But Pyg is another level - he kills his victims mentally and emotionally, and then subjects them to insane physical pain. At that point his victims aren't dead - they're walking corpses.
21:10 I can't tell you how satisfying that takedown is when you play this game for yourself. I can't help but think to myself "And STAY down, you sick freak!"
He is a pitiful sick freak though considering how he genuinely doesn’t know any better due to his insanity being so bad that he genuinely believes he is helping people as well as his tragic past (look up the Arkham version if you want to know more about his past)
Lazlo Valentin was actually a gifted scientist before he suffered a schizophrenic breakdown causing him to develop a deranged new persona Professor Pyg. He formed the "Circus of Strange" and began touring the country,leaving a string of mysterious missing people.
@@toddtaylor8368 then that means he is a demonic pig mask wearing sick piece of shit from Hell! Any time the number 666 is involved, you can tell that the thing is from Hell. 🐷=😈🔥🔥🔥
Papa oso At least they don’t change completely like what Pyg does to his victims. Mad Hatter only traumatizes them and possibly kills them, but Pyg mutilates and tortures their whole bodies’ and keeps their minds in a state that allows them to only see; allowing them to be terrified.
The game needed more missions like Pyg's, boss battles like Pyg's, characters like Pyg... The game fucking needed more Pyg, even though I know that if he had a bigger role Rocksteady would've given him the Pygmobile that doubled as a magical tank of wonder.
There was a psychopath who got loose on a navy installation in Hawaii & snuck into a family’s house while they were on vacation & planned to basically turn them into dollotrons when they got back. Super disturbing

TheGamingHydra indeed
He is a allucination of Batman, because of the fear gas.
i honestly have never seen a batman villain more deranged than professor pyg
Harvey Wroot joker isn’t so deranged, but he’s definitely insane. Unrepentant homicidal maniac? Yes. Anywhere near as deranged as Pyg? No. He’s just happy in chaos. Meanwhile, Pyg mutliates and kills people for reasons of “perfection.”
Zsasz
Yeah he’s sadistically deranged, joker is aware of his insanity but pyg is lost in his own world unaware of reality probably the only Batman villain I can think is as deranged as him is the dollmaker
Archangel980 But that's the thing that makes Joker even more evil than Pyg....he knows what he does is wrong he just doesn't care. Pyg thinks what he's doing is right in some weird and strange view on the world. So you can't really say he's evil since he doesn't know what he's doing is fucked up. He's just insane and thinks he's helping. Joker doesn't give a shit and will just kill you because it's funny to him. While of course I would choose to die by Joker instead of Pyg though. The thought of that man "perfecting me" is just bone chilling.
Zoom deranged and evil are two different words
If Matt Reeves' The Batman becomes a hit and he's asked to do a sequel, I want to see him adopt this interpretation of Professor Pyg.
I'd love to see that!
That would be horrifying and awesome
Definitely would be R rated if he was the main villain, especially if they go off this version of Professor Pyg
@@dekuOP21 i don’t think he would be the main character tho maybe a side character
A live action interpretation of this Professor Pyg? Oh man, I’m gonna feel sick.
What really freaks me out is that the creepiest villains (Zsasz, Pyg) are some of the most realistic Batman villains.
CapitalistWalrus IKR?
We create fictional monsters because the real ones are too scary...
Meme emeM yeah I wish that Batman would acknowledge it and maybe when he sees it could start a side mission
Exactly. Because they are both serial killers
The most terrifying monsters aren't the ones of our own creation. No, then at least we can give them weaknesses. The scariest monsters are the ones that look like us. Killer Croc? Just electrocute him. Joker? Bitch, please, the Batman's been kicking his ass since 1941. Scarecrow? He's a guy with a bag on his head and some trippy drugs. (Well, this time he's upped the ante, but Batman's defeated him dozens of times before.)
But what they all have in common is that they don't look like regular people. That's what makes villains like Zsasz and Pyg so scary.
@@beholdthegriffin2346 I mean, Scarecrow's character isn't that far off from the freakishly inhumane stuff the CIA was pulling in the 60's/70's. Breaking a mind from fear toxin? Not all that different from Subproject 68's operational goals
Pyg looks like a character who belongs in Outlast.
Iambic Pentameter yes
Iambic Pentameter funny, he actually remains me to Pigsy, one of The most fucked up parts of Manhunt... And that's a pretty fucked up game

The_Vigilante nah joker in this universe mutilated infants it’s pretty bad lol
Maybe because pyg seems to hit on the most horrifying aspects of villains. He’s a real person like Bruce but kills for pleasure and perfection. He’s like some real life killers who perform horrible acts on people. Meanwhile most other batman villains, while incredibly messed up, have plenty of aspects that distinguish them as less horrifying because of the unrealistic things that make them villains

The voice actor of Pyg did a great job on depicting how creepy and twisted this lunatic is. Horrifying!
That's Dwight Schultz,who voiced Aloysius Animo in Ben 10.
And also voiced Mung Daal in Chowder
And Vulture in the game adaptation of Spider-Man 1 and Marvel's Spider-Man.
What is Dwight Schultz like in real life?
It's Murdoch from the A-Team.
This side mission is the creepiest and the most disturbing in this game which is perfect honestly. To add to the horror, one of the victims was in Tucson, where i live right now. and the other one in Little Rock, where my best friend lives.
***** yes no worries
Little Rock is near where I live
Don't worry, Pyg will make you perfect!
Pyg is coming for both of you
If anything happens to either of you, Batman will avenge you.
Well, no, he won't, he'll just go through the revolving door at Arkham. The Red Hood will probably avenge you.
Pyg may be insane in every way possible, but can we just talk about his Voice Actor? He did so well with Pyg
When you get disturbed with a character, you know the voice actor did a freaking good job.
Yeah I agree
That and his god tier opera singing
It’s Dwight Schultz! You’ve probably heard him as Dr. Animo in every Ben 10 series, or Mung Daal in Chowder or seen him as Howling Mad Murdock in the original A-Team.

They should do games on classic comics. Maybe put in in their own take or twist.

Arkham knight is a kind of retelling of under the red hood.
AmazingGaming I was just thinking that the other day. How cool would it be if Rocksteady released story packs like Cold, Cold, Heart and the upcoming Batgirl DLC based on the comics?
REDKNIGHT Oh I know but have the whole story about a classic arc. For example, having the main arc find the killer that kills on holidays a la Long Halloween, but it can be the video game take on it.

Dollotron: "I was talking about your singing!"
Hahahahaha this made me laugh istg
This is probably the most ****ed up Batman villain ever created.
And his first appearance was in the comics was #666 in 2007
@@toddtaylor8368 then that means he is a demonic pig mask wearing sick piece of shit from Hell! Any time the number 666 is involved, you can tell that the thing is from Hell. 🐷=😈🔥🔥🔥
By the way who the hell is mother
DC should have killed pyg and zeaz off
Papa oso At least they don’t change completely like what Pyg does to his victims. Mad Hatter only traumatizes them and possibly kills them, but Pyg mutilates and tortures their whole bodies’ and keeps their minds in a state that allows them to only see; allowing them to be terrified.
24:12 The moment when you stopped the Batmobile, Batman's reaction must've been, "Bitch, did you just puked on my car?!"
16:20 I can't tell if he's talking about the surgery or the singing.
Probably both their both just as bad
That scene made me realize. He doesn’t use anesthesia...
He uses painkillers
@@spectraphantom5870 So it is the singing. XD
@@spectraphantom5870 Painkillers? The whole point of that dialogue is that pain is the body's way of saying "thank you". He is not using Painkillers.
Professor Pyg makes Joker look like Luke Skywalker...
*wait a minute*
The game needed more missions like Pyg's, boss battles like Pyg's, characters like Pyg... The game fucking needed more Pyg, even though I know that if he had a bigger role Rocksteady would've given him the Pygmobile that doubled as a magical tank of wonder.
Jabber LuPluto The boss battle was cool, you're right.
Jabber LuPluto Best comment I've ever read.
He shall also have a Pygwing and a sidekick named Dollin
Batman:Arkham Pyg
I just laughed really hard and nearly woke up my family at the aspect of the pygmobile
I always find the villains like Pyg and Zsasz the scariest because they could exist in our world.
So could joker
I find Pyg more scary than Joker.
True although I don’t think it’s possible to create dollotrons in real life and let’s hope it never will be since it’s a fate worse then death.
There was a psychopath who got loose on a navy installation in Hawaii & snuck into a family’s house while they were on vacation & planned to basically turn them into dollotrons when they got back. Super disturbing
@@Harbinger_of_nurgle I would like a link to that story just so I know it’s true.
"we couldn't have done anything to prevent these deaths, but we could still save others" that's actually a great outlook for Batman to have
Can't tell if this is sarcastic or not.
@@Samuel152 And how would you have done this differently, oh wise Samuel
@@thehonorablereverendaddiso1943 Who pissed on your coffee?
@@Samuel152 I don't drink coffee, Mr. High and Mighty Tighty Whitey [who is smuggling plumbs]
Even Alfred said that Pyg's unstable even by Gotham's standards. That says a lot.
