Why is it so visually drab compared to Arkham Knight :(
Bummer.
Oh no
Bummer.
Oh no
What the fuck is going on with the Red Hood "fight" at 3:43 ?
The player is visibly missing his attacks and it looks so dumb. Who the hell saw this and still chose to include the footage ?

This looks like a b-team Arkham Knight :/
Still hope it'll be good but not even matching a game from 2015?

Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, the Flash and a ton of other options they could have went with instead of a Batfamily game.
WB just needs to license their IP out to devs who actually want to work on these characters because their internal studios just don't and take too long on top of it.
I highlighted that in the first page, it's by far the worst part of the video. And it's even worse, because I don't know if it's just the combat being bad, the player being bad or (most likely) a terrible mix of both.
Looks like what I expected. Stiff. It's got that bad kind of GaaS feel to it.
Like the concept of this, but between gear equip bullshit and the jank I'm not interested. The boss fight they showed off awhile ago looked like just whittling a health bar down, and this doesn't look like there's any changes to that in the gameplay.

Yeah I swear the game actually looks better than the video shows. I had a similar issue with "non-lethal rounds still do a LOT of damage" *grunt isn't even nudged by bullets*
That looked a bit rougher than I was expecting ngl. At least some of the combat and open area portions, compared to that clearly early-in-development first footage. I don't know if it's the actual game or the player, but yeah.
Hopefully they give this the time it needs, because there's a lot that I like in this and, fuck, this is the first and likely only chance I'm getting to controlling some of these characters in a non-fighting game. Would really hate it if this goes wrong.
The gear thing... I hope WB learnt their lesson with the Mordor stuff.

Not only is this game coming out like 7-8 years after Arkham Knight, it visually looks way worse even though it's now new gen only??? This is wild.
Honesty far less bothered by the visuals than the gameplay. The animations and combat look really unsatisfying and janky, and I'm super turned off by how loot/gear driven it looks. Bleh.

yeah, maybe it's nostalgia, ill wait for better comparison first
Not so bad imo.
The person playing isn't the best for showing off like much videos and I dont think they unlocked a ton of moveset? Kept jumping unnecessarily from enemy to enemy.
I like the subtle incoming damage indicators they are going for, tho still needs some work. Subtle + Dualsense feedback might he stellar.
The animations in general still seem like it needs some work but asides that, all standard stuff I guess.
Might not be the best showing considering how long it's been in production

The game obviously need a lot of optimization and polishing but I think that half a year could be plenty of time for that.
I liked it?
It is superfunny to read all the "this doesn´t look like a current gen game". Guys. The ditch of the last-gen versions was just announced as well. What does it mean? It means last-gen consoles were in the mind of the devs for the vast majority of the development of the game.

Your best (and probably only necessary) entry point to the series is Arkham City.
Arkham Asylum was a fantastic template, but might be "too limited".
Arkham Knight was simply "too goddamned much".
Arkham City pretty much hits the sweet spot between those two games.
When the game was first shown I remember someone saying it looks like a Batman game from Ubisoft, and I can see it.
You have Nightwing's combat that's emulating freeflow combat in a brawler combat system. You have the traversal seeming like a less refined Arkham approach. You have 'AR Vision', instead of Detective Vision.
It's what I would expect from another publisher trying to live up to the Arkham games, but unable to directly copy them. It's strange to see when it's the same publisher with a developer than worked on an Arkham game.

Arkham Knight is going to be seen in greater light now. We got it so good back then, people took it for granted.
This is developed by WB Games Montreal. Rocksteady are doing Suicide Squad which looks infinitely better from a gameplay, technical and presentation point of view.
🤦
Did they seriously could not figure out something better and more appropriate for him?
feels like they forgot to enable ambient occlusion, looks very "flat"?
The gameplay progression looks solid with you having a hub, choosing gadget and shit ---- which sorta reminds me of SC Blacklist. But man that whole gameplay section with loot feels soooo unnecessary. This gaas system feels really backward compared to when they did with Arkham games.
This is def looking inferior to the Arkham games. I knew this game was not going to be for me! :(
