Fun fact; prison in some states (florida) actually do give prisoners crocs. They're hard to run or fight in and can be worn in the shower, cutting down on the spread of fungus. It's a win-win for the prison, but sucks as a convict. Oh, and they're orange, of course.
You beat me too it. PrIvileged UA-camr Englishman, drinking tea and eating... uhhh... (what do stereotype Brits eat? Oh yea!) crumpets, doesn't understand down south, its hard out here for a g, lol. Oh and its the same in jail.
@@shadowkhiz7455 No, thats not fun. But beating an enemy for 5 consecutive minutes for it to only tickle their health is absurd. Not enjoyable, not immersive, and most importantly, not fun. I’m okay with that in games where it makes sense to have that mechanic however; gotham knights does not mix well with that mechanic. There is a reason this game has very low review scores.

People comparing it to the Arkham games is one of the issues. When a game (i.e. Arkham Knight) is claimed to be a "masterpiece" then how exactly can any other game top it? What's also funny is that before GK even came out there were people that were vocal about issues that Arkham Knight had (issues very similar to GK no less): - Jason being the Knight was too obvious. - Catching Riddler was tedious - The Batmobile wasn't all that great - Nightwing DLC was too short - Nightwing getting nerfed/killed easily by Penguin ... And so on, buuuut right when GK makes its debut, *all of a sudden* Arkham Knight is the Holy Grail with no issues to be spoken of and GK is full to the brim with problems. Plus, many many people love Batman compared to the numbers of those who love Nightwing and Red Hood etc. Of course GK doesn't really compare, but that's because its an entirely different universe made by a different group in DC, they're not like Rocksteady. I don't know how good WB Montreal is a company but it looks like they tried to make a decent game for many players to enjoy and not stray too far from how the characters are. I think they've succeeded in that at least.
just finished it and i must say no game has pissed me off like this one. the story is really, really bad. the fact that they killed off batman (which was an interesting premise) just to revive him and then fucking kill him again is just not right: it ruins every possible buildup or pathos. it's just bad. also there's basically no villains: the court of owls is basically non existent and used just to leave the players with an embarassing cliffhanger, talia is just useless and the secondary foes are quinn, freeze and clayface. Everything in this game seems like an excuse to hide a lack of development and set up sequels and DLCs, which is something that every developer does nowadays but this game really looks and feels like a skeleton. honestly i don't even care about future DLCs, this is pure shit.
The main things i struggled with playing on Series x. -Drastic frame drops.( Noticed the very 1st time they made me drive /sooo many Visual Effects on some missions) -Camera has robbed me of combos and defense many times. -Buttons presses not registering.

@Christopher James-Stewart no 💀 the game literally does suck. I was at GameStop yesterday and saw a used copy already. like bro its only been a few days since the game is out and someone already returned the game lmao
What bothers me and pisses me off most is the frame rate.. WHY make a game specifically for next gen, can’t even get it on Xbox one or ps4, etc. and then make a 30fps cap?!… what sense does that make? It just doesn’t feel smooth. It’s fun but it takes getting used to. Exclusively for next gen but feels like a last gen because the fps cap like wtf. If it was 60fps I’d probably love it or at least like it way more. This shit just ain’t it
You think Nightwing is bad with leaving those two people to burn? Preform a stealth takedown on a ledge. I watched Red hood pull a freak over the ledge of a 15 story building and shatter their spine on a fan. Jason genuinely committed murder that day.
Tbh the game is badass to me. The upgrades for character shit is confusing and I don’t like it but I’m having fun with combat. I play on hard difficulty and I turned off enemy power level indicators, enemy attack indicators, huds, button overlays, and subtitles and I’m pretty happy with my Immersion in this game. I noticed when people play they just mash dodge and attack constantly When this game asks you to be acrobatic and calculated even outside of stealth. Combos from punches to ranged attacks then grab to a takedown. You might have more fun this way idk
@@GreenLightSpeed I hated odyssey, personally I wasn’t even into that time period or the world building so there was no way I was gonna last grinding in that game. However I love Batman everything and I really like the concept of “night missions” how much can you do for the city each night you go out. So it doesn’t feel that Grindy since I enjoy the idea of it idk
I’m ngl I’m very much enjoying this game. I’ll admit it’s not an 8 or 9/10 but I think this game is a solid 7-7.5. Definitely worth the price of admission. 18-20 hours in and I’m still enjoying every aspect like hour 1
I feel like there's a lot who'd agree with this. I personally haven't experienced those frame issues everyone else is having. Everyone who has played it, who isnt a youtuber or critic, seem to really like it. I think this is an example of critics making a game seem worse than it is. I guarantee in a few months everyone who hated on it is gonna say it's underrated and good just like what they did with arkham knight and arkham orgins.
Batman is my favorite superhero and the Night of Owls and Robin War are some of my favorite Batman comics. Everything about this game should make me love it, but I just feel emptiness when playing it. All these annoying checklists during combat, annoyingly abundant collectibles, grindy nature of having to get clues, having to do challenges to progress the actual plot. Gotham just being a bland mesh of repeated neon signs, colorless buildings and smoke attempted to be made more interesting by making it look more 'varied' with a colored light. Combat looks good, but feels like folding your laundry.
Yeah not about to pay 70 dollars for 30fps. Don't care about their garbage excuse, they're not gonna con 70 bucks out of me and expect me to be happy with 30 fps.
@@shaneoflaherty8392 I kept up until the game was 30 fps for 70 dollars. I already have games that are 60 fps that are way better and don't have garbage fight mechanics.
I dont understand how people were hyped for this game. From the moment I saw the reveal trailer I knew this game would be garbage it was so obvious. But then again I was hyped for cyberpunk so what do I know?
being honest i’m actually having a lot of fun with this game, my pc runs it fine at 60 frames and playing with my friends is the best. it has its bugs but i don’t think it deserves this much hate
Yea can’t stand Jason’s character design. He doesn’t look like anything from the comics. His fighting animation seems pretty childish too, lacking the skill of a former robin. That said Tim and Barbara are passable (I guess) but at least they nailed Greyson. Disappointed about no Damian tho.
Ign have completed failed to give this game a proper review. I spent 15 hours playing this game with a friend so far and it’s honestly a blast. PLEASE DO NOT FORGET THAT THIS REVIEW IS BASED ON THE OPINION OF ONE MAN who does not share that same likes and dislikes as you do, set your expectations for Gotham Knights correctly. It’s going to be updated it’s going to be improved, if cyberpunk managed to turn around a difficult release this game can too.
"Who's handing out crocks in prison". Thats what I was given to wear in jail when I was there. What do u think they gonna give u steel toes to stomp someone out with?
Looking at the graphics, text font, UI, Gotham Knights seems to be more of Arkham Origins 2 instead of Arkham Knight. Not to mention the whole liveservice stuff with loot. Makes sense tho, since WB Montreal worked on Origins, not on any of the original Arkham games. Honestly, WB should just give Rocksteady the keys to all the DC video game projects. Give them that Superman game they wanted to make, etc. Or maybe Suicide Squad ends up disappointing as well in which case WB should only give them all the Batman/Bat-Family games.
I genuinely really enjoy it but to each their own ig. I found the game to be smoother than I thought and I love the combat, I tend to not just spam light attack over and over so maybe there’s that
@Master Mind what does this game need to be considered “next gen” ? What’s wrong with it? I’m seriously asking. People keep saying “the graphics are meh…” what’s wrong with them?
Honestly I enjoy it. It’s not better than any of the Arkham games, but it’s alright it has fun aspects about it. I’ll probably spend the next week going through and playing it before returning it. Definitely not worth the $70.00 I spent but if it were $35-$40 now we’re getting to a reasonable price range
Makes me sad because I LOVE batman's kids, Nightwing and Redhood are my personal favorites,, the second I saw the gameplay footage I was so sad to see the gameplay didn't look very good Only thing I appreciate about this game is the graphics and how they bring attention to batmans kids after years of them being neglected (in games and especially movies)
This shit is honestly so fun, it does tweak out a little. But if you’re good at using the skills and switching between heavy/ light attacks melee/ranged and abilities it flows very well and the different factions and crimes and detective work is pretty immersive & keeps you entertained. I get the criticism for the price but it’s still a good time
@@sparky7523 lmfaooo what games are you playing that you aren’t doing the same shit for 3/4 hours? Literally that’s the premise of every game you have main objectives and side objectives to complete, time trials, collectibles, challenges, mini bosses, you have to unlock stuff and it’s SO easy to level up its silly, so next argument
@@lisagarcia115 except that in other games those repetitive gameplays are actually more diverse and “fun” to play. Your acting like the combat is in depth or more than just spamming 3 buttons at a all times. Arkham Knight’s combat was simple but in depth and actually fun to do. This game however… oof.. for 2022 standards, this is a lazy and disappointing game. Arkham Knight was made back in 2015 with less technology and resources than today and it still blows this “videogame” by a mile.
@@sparky7523 we literally do not care about Arkham rn, that’s not what we’re talking about 🤣 did you alternate between holding and tapping? Did you time the attacks for the combos? Did you utilize the momentum abilities to their fullest extent? Did you time you dodges for perfect dodges/ perfect attacks? Did you use all the grab, ambush/ stealth takedown moves as well? Like if YOU just spammed 3 buttons the whole time you played or heard that’s what someone else did… sorry that’s how you feel. Now the frame dips and tiny glitches like that I’m 2022? For $70 dollars? It is crazy, i didn’t say it was reasonable at all…. But the game is still fun and that was the only point i was making
@@lisagarcia115 Gotham knights is a hot steaming pile of horse 💩 it’s hilarious how much u defend this atrocity that has been made fun of by so many people online and especially reviews 😂 Arkham just set the bar way too high that 7 years later u accept this garbage from WB Montreal after they haven’t released a game since 2013 and rocksteady gave them their assets for Arkham origins 😂
wake up honey new voiy video just dropped tbf i was hyped for this about a year ago and then it dwindled out, it looks like they were gonna try and copy the avengers game then saw how games as a service crashed so did a harsher u turn than liz truss
I knew this game would be a disappointment. It just reaked of that lack of soul that so many sub-par games tend to have, I'm looking at you, Marvel's Avengers
I have good memories of Arkham Asylum, it felt so unique and I liked how they emphasised the detective side of Batman, the close quarters nature of the game felt fitting to his character. These new big open world style of Gotham games just don't hit the spot for me :/
Bat Family: we should keep Batman's code and not kill Red Hood: shoots the shit outta people Batgirl: let's a giant statue crush a minion Robin: kills some guy that came back from the Lazarus pit Nightwing: strangles to death people with his sexy ass
I'm glad you're loving it dude! If I had to I'd say the combat on Robin and Batgirl is ok, story is great, city is great but the crimes and free roam is meh, traversal is cool and graphics are meh
Well the ass and the wingsuit in my case. Traversal and stealth in this game are still ass though. I hope they bring some fixes or at least hope the modding community can work some magic.
The devs told us what kinda game this would be. Stop mentioning Arkham this is its own thing, Arkham days are over lmao just as many people I see giving the game hate I seen many people say they enjoy the game and has been on it for hours. That’s almost like trying to compare nba live to 2k you can’t folks just butt hurt that Batman isn’t in the game that’s all it truly is
Me too. Unless its hot garbage and just absolutely bug ridden like saints row reboot and cyberpunk on release date, judging by the gameplay footage, its probably not gonna be as BAD as people make it to be, but its still probably bad, but fun.
Why didn't they use the arkham knight combat system. You could switch characters in it so multiplayer could have been possible. WB Montreal used the same fighting system in arkham city for arkham origins why not use the arkham knight fighting system.
Idk why so many people depend on other’s opinions to get a game. Makes no sense. If that was the case, I never would have bought cyberpunk. Had loads of ppl whine about it and tell me not to buy it cuz it was “buggy”. I ended up buying it and it was one of the greatest games I’ve ever played, one that I STILL play. Goes to show that critics opinions don’t mean shit lmao.
I knew this game would be a mess. It gave me a really bad feeling since I saw the trailer that had "off with your head" blaring in the background while trying to have a serious tone
I also get immediately sceptical when Jorraptor praises a game, that guy has either the worst taste in games or is doing ass kissing for the companies. Well, what do except of someone who says we need more games like the last of us part 2.
Yeah, I'm sorry but, 50€ is definitely too much for this game. I don't how you can justify this game for that money, i would say this game is max 10€ at best. Nothing in this game is really interesting or good to even come close to that price tag.
@@Anonymous-gq7ho I have to admit I was very quick to give my opinion on this game I have played alot more hours of it and I have to say it's not that good The city is dead the stories are good and some combat but that's it
WB Montreal hasn’t released a game since 2013 and that was Arkham origins which was basically a 2.0 version of Arkham city just a prequel and this is the dog shit they release after almost a decade of no games released? 😂😂😂
In case you’re not aware, WB Montreal is not the Studio who were behind the hit-masterpiece classics known as Arkham Asylum, Arkham City and Arkham Knight.
They really should have just made another Arkham game but with the batfamily after Batman's death. i don't even get why they went down the action rpg path and worse graphics. I mean WB montreál did make arkham origins and i enjoyed that game a lot. So there was a lot of potential. Now now, i have bought the game and played with it a lot. I have enjoyed it, the animations look very good, the cinematics too, but the combat.. oh.. the combat is the worst part of the game. Stealth is also very barebones but at least it works and there is some creativity aspect to it, nowhere near versatile as Arkham's. Overall i'd give it a 6.5/10.
People really need to stop relying to much on reviews and make their own experience. Its actually often that we have a different take on the fun of gameplay and not. The truth is that most reviewers have a very casual, common taste but we have very different opinions. There was plenty of times I enjoyed a game much more than the review bandwagon. And vice versa didnt enjoy a game hyped up by the bandwagon. I highly recommend starting to think and play for yourself and not blindly overtake opinions of others and the “trend”. You will thank yourself
I hate the comparison to arkham knight but yea some of these things are unacceptable compared to it. primarily the fact that it can't even hold a steady 30 fps
Favorite line, playing as Red Hood - heading to the hotel:
Alfred tells Jason to stay away from the mini bar as their days of unlimited funds are over. LOL

@@GreenLightSpeed I hated odyssey, personally I wasn’t even into that time period or the world building so there was no way I was gonna last grinding in that game. However I love Batman everything and I really like the concept of “night missions” how much can you do for the city each night you go out. So it doesn’t feel that Grindy since I enjoy the idea of it idk
I miss Arkham games, I think everyone was wishing Gotham knights would have been like those l without Batman as the main character
I love the game tbh and i can’t wait for new dlc !
The only thing i hate is that you can’t do at least 2 extra saves
Fr. I need my extra saves for different interactions!
I’m ngl I’m very much enjoying this game. I’ll admit it’s not an 8 or 9/10 but I think this game is a solid 7-7.5. Definitely worth the price of admission. 18-20 hours in and I’m still enjoying every aspect like hour 1
The games a 5 bro it sucks
@@nicholasrodriguez4990 how does it suck?
I’m with you bruh. Def not GOTY, but it’s not as bad as people are making it. I give it a 7 as well
I feel like there's a lot who'd agree with this. I personally haven't experienced those frame issues everyone else is having. Everyone who has played it, who isnt a youtuber or critic, seem to really like it. I think this is an example of critics making a game seem worse than it is. I guarantee in a few months everyone who hated on it is gonna say it's underrated and good just like what they did with arkham knight and arkham orgins.
It's worth the price of admission? Maybe on sale
Batman is my favorite superhero and the Night of Owls and Robin War are some of my favorite Batman comics.
Everything about this game should make me love it, but I just feel emptiness when playing it. All these annoying checklists during combat, annoyingly abundant collectibles, grindy nature of having to get clues, having to do challenges to progress the actual plot. Gotham just being a bland mesh of repeated neon signs, colorless buildings and smoke attempted to be made more interesting by making it look more 'varied' with a colored light. Combat looks good, but feels like folding your laundry.
Of course it's bad, it's a triple A game that exists in the present, and in the present there is a 70% chance a new triple A title well suck
Okay I'm definitely waiting for a heavy sale. Not only the 30fps but the horrible writing really does it.
You literally can predict the story before you even play the game
The dialogue is sorta corny too!
Yeah not about to pay 70 dollars for 30fps. Don't care about their garbage excuse, they're not gonna con 70 bucks out of me and expect me to be happy with 30 fps.
@@shaneoflaherty8392 I kept up until the game was 30 fps for 70 dollars. I already have games that are 60 fps that are way better and don't have garbage fight mechanics.
I dont understand how people were hyped for this game. From the moment I saw the reveal trailer I knew this game would be garbage it was so obvious. But then again I was hyped for cyberpunk so what do I know?
Some people buy games for the sole reason their favorite character is in a game. Like a lot of the peoe that bought this
being honest i’m actually having a lot of fun with this game, my pc runs it fine at 60 frames and playing with my friends is the best. it has its bugs but i don’t think it deserves this much hate
Fun fact: Crocs are actually part of the prison uniform.
Yea can’t stand Jason’s character design. He doesn’t look like anything from the comics. His fighting animation seems pretty childish too, lacking the skill of a former robin.
That said Tim and Barbara are passable (I guess) but at least they nailed Greyson. Disappointed about no Damian tho.
Actually Jason design is actually accurate to his design in DC rebirth
BTW, there are prisons that give prisoners Crocs , or Croc like variants. I know they do in Virginia prisons.
Oh damn. The more you know
if it was 10 dollars wait for a sale
We will start a go fund so you can play the game keep your hard earned 10 Disney dollars
If there's anything I wanted in the arkam games it was the ability to assault civilians 😂😂😂
Fr, that feature just makes the game the Goty
Some of the best games I've played are critical disasters. May be we all love enduring pain?
All i know is, im loving it lmao
It needs severe optimisation and some ironing out, but so far (20h in) im really enjoying it.
Cyberpunk fan?
Same, i feel like il love this game
Ign have completed failed to give this game a proper review. I spent 15 hours playing this game with a friend so far and it’s honestly a blast. PLEASE DO NOT FORGET THAT THIS REVIEW IS BASED ON THE OPINION OF ONE MAN who does not share that same likes and dislikes as you do, set your expectations for Gotham Knights correctly. It’s going to be updated it’s going to be improved, if cyberpunk managed to turn around a difficult release this game can too.
Why reward game developers that can't make a good game that works how it should without needing massive patches to fix it later?
Nope, it's not.
They should have kept the Arkham style combat this game is getting the same reception as the saints row reboot it’s the second flop of the year
Watch out the Batman fanboys will dislike the video lol. Or they will predictability say "I am enjoying the game."
"Who's handing out crocks in prison". Thats what I was given to wear in jail when I was there. What do u think they gonna give u steel toes to stomp someone out with?
Thought they'd be giving out J's
Problem with gameplay is that you litterally just spam, no counters or nothing just spam attack
Just an fyi crocs are pretty common in prison 😂
This game screams: *title*TheOperworldGame-Another one.
Been to jail. Can confirm. The nice places get crocs. We just got orange flip flops made of vehicle plastic, it felt.
Damn bro these high class prisons got their inmates comfy
@@Voiy gotta do a more serious crime to get to easy street.
Looking at the graphics, text font, UI, Gotham Knights seems to be more of Arkham Origins 2 instead of Arkham Knight. Not to mention the whole liveservice stuff with loot.
Makes sense tho, since WB Montreal worked on Origins, not on any of the original Arkham games. Honestly, WB should just give Rocksteady the keys to all the DC video game projects. Give them that Superman game they wanted to make, etc.
Or maybe Suicide Squad ends up disappointing as well in which case WB should only give them all the Batman/Bat-Family games.
I genuinely really enjoy it but to each their own ig. I found the game to be smoother than I thought and I love the combat, I tend to not just spam light attack over and over so maybe there’s that
Right! Idk what they are talking about lol this game is fun. I tried it last night and stayed on 6 hours, this game is dope
@Master Mind what does this game need to be considered “next gen” ? What’s wrong with it? I’m seriously asking.
People keep saying “the graphics are meh…” what’s wrong with them?
@@thetraveler1182 compare it to arkham knight lol . i love the game but the graphics are bad
why did this make me wanna play it even more?
You some kind of masochist
Honestly I enjoy it. It’s not better than any of the Arkham games, but it’s alright it has fun aspects about it. I’ll probably spend the next week going through and playing it before returning it. Definitely not worth the $70.00 I spent but if it were $35-$40 now we’re getting to a reasonable price range
Bruce Wayne faked his death because his identity as the Batman was discovered. Do you guys even know the story of this freakin comic or the game??
i played red hood for like 10hrs then i switched to batgirl because of that ass, i realized she is still lvl1 like wtf
There are 6 villains
Harley,Clayface,Freeze,Talia,court of owls and Evil Batman so they gave me more than i wanted
And manbat
@@loadedwrlds7794 i found out yesterday about it
So 7
😉😁
I saw Red Hood and got too hyped... I'm thankful I never bought it..
Kept my expectations low, was massively disappointed and frustrated with the game.
Forgot to mention the photo mode is god tier if you're a nerd who loves photo mode like me
Makes me sad because I LOVE batman's kids, Nightwing and Redhood are my personal favorites,, the second I saw the gameplay footage I was so sad to see the gameplay didn't look very good
Only thing I appreciate about this game is the graphics and how they bring attention to batmans kids after years of them being neglected (in games and especially movies)
This shit is honestly so fun, it does tweak out a little. But if you’re good at using the skills and switching between heavy/ light attacks melee/ranged and abilities it flows very well and the different factions and crimes and detective work is pretty immersive & keeps you entertained. I get the criticism for the price but it’s still a good time
Nothing in this game is immersive. I don’t see anyone being entertained by doing the same 3 to 4 things repeatedly for hours.
@@sparky7523 lmfaooo what games are you playing that you aren’t doing the same shit for 3/4 hours? Literally that’s the premise of every game you have main objectives and side objectives to complete, time trials, collectibles, challenges, mini bosses, you have to unlock stuff and it’s SO easy to level up its silly, so next argument
@@lisagarcia115 except that in other games those repetitive gameplays are actually more diverse and “fun” to play. Your acting like the combat is in depth or more than just spamming 3 buttons at a all times. Arkham Knight’s combat was simple but in depth and actually fun to do. This game however… oof.. for 2022 standards, this is a lazy and disappointing game. Arkham Knight was made back in 2015 with less technology and resources than today and it still blows this “videogame” by a mile.
@@sparky7523 we literally do not care about Arkham rn, that’s not what we’re talking about 🤣 did you alternate between holding and tapping? Did you time the attacks for the combos? Did you utilize the momentum abilities to their fullest extent? Did you time you dodges for perfect dodges/ perfect attacks? Did you use all the grab, ambush/ stealth takedown moves as well? Like if YOU just spammed 3 buttons the whole time you played or heard that’s what someone else did… sorry that’s how you feel. Now the frame dips and tiny glitches like that I’m 2022? For $70 dollars? It is crazy, i didn’t say it was reasonable at all…. But the game is still fun and that was the only point i was making
@@lisagarcia115 Gotham knights is a hot steaming pile of horse 💩 it’s hilarious how much u defend this atrocity that has been made fun of by so many people online and especially reviews 😂 Arkham just set the bar way too high that 7 years later u accept this garbage from WB Montreal after they haven’t released a game since 2013 and rocksteady gave them their assets for Arkham origins 😂
wake up honey new voiy video just dropped
tbf i was hyped for this about a year ago and then it dwindled out, it looks like they were gonna try and copy the avengers game then saw how games as a service crashed so did a harsher u turn than liz truss
The reason the Freaks dialogue is weird is because the device got their kids to write it
Looks like someone got their kid to write this as well
I knew this game would be a disappointment. It just reaked of that lack of soul that so many sub-par games tend to have, I'm looking at you, Marvel's Avengers
I have good memories of Arkham Asylum, it felt so unique and I liked how they emphasised the detective side of Batman, the close quarters nature of the game felt fitting to his character.
These new big open world style of Gotham games just don't hit the spot for me :/
This game looks like it came out in 2015 while arkham knight looks like it came out this year.
Bat Family: we should keep Batman's code and not kill
Red Hood: shoots the shit outta people
Batgirl: let's a giant statue crush a minion
Robin: kills some guy that came back from the Lazarus pit
Nightwing: strangles to death people with his sexy ass
Great combat, great story, great free roam, great character growth, great graphics, great traversal and great game. Loving it so far.
Same I love it
I'm glad you're loving it dude! If I had to I'd say the combat on Robin and Batgirl is ok, story is great, city is great but the crimes and free roam is meh, traversal is cool and graphics are meh
Dude I *LOVE* this game lol idk what he’s talking about
@@Voiy graphics are? Mans playing in 720p low settings lol
Still going to play it and love it so please no one tell me I'm stupid for spending 70 bucks on a game that is reviewd to be bad
You're stupid
Omg!!! You're stupid for spending 70 bucks on a game that is reviewd to be bad!!! 😱😱😱
@@tom.0919 X3
So true mate all these fanboys obviously have interest In the game waiting on a sale how sad despite all the bad reviews I loved it
Well the ass and the wingsuit in my case. Traversal and stealth in this game are still ass though. I hope they bring some fixes or at least hope the modding community can work some magic.
Finally!!!! Someone else acknowledges that it feels like it needs a lock-on system!
If I wanted a game this shit I’d go buy the souljaboy console
This just makes me sad. I was so hyped for the game but it turned out to be mid…the coffin is ready for this game sadly.
The devs told us what kinda game this would be. Stop mentioning Arkham this is its own thing, Arkham days are over lmao just as many people I see giving the game hate I seen many people say they enjoy the game and has been on it for hours. That’s almost like trying to compare nba live to 2k you can’t folks just butt hurt that Batman isn’t in the game that’s all it truly is
It wasn't made by Rocksteady Studios, that explains why it's so different.
Woooow u can’t even finish the big boss dude like bro it’s 2022 it should’ve been a slow mo take down or something 🤦🏽♂️, 7 years later
Imma wait for them to iron out the framerate issues and grab this on a discount.
Seems fun though.
Me too. Unless its hot garbage and just absolutely bug ridden like saints row reboot and cyberpunk on release date, judging by the gameplay footage, its probably not gonna be as BAD as people make it to be, but its still probably bad, but fun.
*This is how it happened... This is how Batman games died.*
Why didn't they use the arkham knight combat system. You could switch characters in it so multiplayer could have been possible. WB Montreal used the same fighting system in arkham city for arkham origins why not use the arkham knight fighting system.
I’m glad I waited for it to be $35. I’m enjoying the story but this game is a long hard slog to get through.
Idk why so many people depend on other’s opinions to get a game. Makes no sense. If that was the case, I never would have bought cyberpunk. Had loads of ppl whine about it and tell me not to buy it cuz it was “buggy”. I ended up buying it and it was one of the greatest games I’ve ever played, one that I STILL play. Goes to show that critics opinions don’t mean shit lmao.
I knew this game would be a mess. It gave me a really bad feeling since I saw the trailer that had "off with your head" blaring in the background while trying to have a serious tone
I also get immediately sceptical when Jorraptor praises a game, that guy has either the worst taste in games or is doing ass kissing for the companies. Well, what do except of someone who says we need more games like the last of us part 2.
Game is nothing like the bad reviews ,yes it could be better in some ways but overall very good game well worth the 50 euro
Where did you get it for €50? I’m considering getting it but can only find it for €65/€70
@@evansmith4765 I live in Dublin Ireland and got it in my local (smyths toy store )
@@shaneoflaherty8392 I live in Dublin too haha thanks for letting me know, I’ll check out my local Smyths
Yeah, I'm sorry but, 50€ is definitely too much for this game. I don't how you can justify this game for that money, i would say this game is max 10€ at best. Nothing in this game is really interesting or good to even come close to that price tag.
@@Anonymous-gq7ho I have to admit I was very quick to give my opinion on this game I have played alot more hours of it and I have to say it's not that good The city is dead the stories are good and some combat but that's it
so I wasn't the only one who thought nightwing was a THICCC BOI XD
Bro got some CAKE
How did they go from the Arkham series to this? Will forever baffle me.
WB Montreal hasn’t released a game since 2013 and that was Arkham origins which was basically a 2.0 version of Arkham city just a prequel and this is the dog shit they release after almost a decade of no games released? 😂😂😂
In case you’re not aware, WB Montreal is not the Studio who were behind the hit-masterpiece classics known as Arkham Asylum, Arkham City and Arkham Knight.
They really should have just made another Arkham game but with the batfamily after Batman's death. i don't even get why they went down the action rpg path and worse graphics. I mean WB montreál did make arkham origins and i enjoyed that game a lot. So there was a lot of potential.
Now now, i have bought the game and played with it a lot. I have enjoyed it, the animations look very good, the cinematics too, but the combat.. oh.. the combat is the worst part of the game. Stealth is also very barebones but at least it works and there is some creativity aspect to it, nowhere near versatile as Arkham's.
Overall i'd give it a 6.5/10.
8:20
Yep she definitely looks like she's an employee of buzzfeed that's for sure
Looks garbage and I was right. Glad I didn’t buy it. Bought my PS5 today and been killing it with Resident Evil 2 remake. Roll on Resident Evil 4.
People really need to stop relying to much on reviews and make their own experience.
Its actually often that we have a different take on the fun of gameplay and not.
The truth is that most reviewers have a very casual, common taste but we have very different opinions.
There was plenty of times I enjoyed a game much more than the review bandwagon. And vice versa didnt enjoy a game hyped up by the bandwagon. I highly recommend starting to think and play for yourself and not blindly overtake opinions of others and the “trend”. You will thank yourself
Hey guys , my opinion is now officially online
The most helpful tip was the only fans hack 😂
Was Red Hood revived from the Lazurus pit or a pool of Venom?
this made me realize you didn't make any videos on the arkham series yet, maybe you should get on that 👀
Maybe 👀
Honestly I'm actually enjoying it especially with a friend 6 or 7 out of 10 for me personally
I'm enjoying the game so far...but I don't have any friends 🤣🤣🤣
I hate the comparison to arkham knight but yea some of these things are unacceptable compared to it. primarily the fact that it can't even hold a steady 30 fps
Literally the worst game in the past 5 years
Haven’t even played the game yet and from what I’ve seen. No way am I
I knew it was going to be at most am average game, ever since i have seen the first gameplay reveal
