Games now need to check a list of features in order to sell, or at least that is the perception. If it doesn't have RPG mechanics, somehow players will be confused as to their absence. See God of War.
Rocksteady should've made a Teen Titans game instead of fricking Suicide Squad.
Could've worked nice as a prequel to arkham events with Dick still being Robin and not having now to come up with bullshit reasons for why Batman (whom inevitably will appear on SS to save everyone) is still alive and operating after AK
>Rocksteady should've made a Teen Titans game instead of fricking Suicide Squad.
Nobody likes those losers except the millennials who grew up watching that shit show in 2003. There's a reason why Dick dumped their asses in the early 90s.
Black person watch the trailer her ass is fricking flat they are just trying to find anything to sound horny, and yes the gameplay is a fricking disaster that you can't miss
I know what you mean, the covers for that garbage piece of shit run are too fricking good for it.

Currently, a writer at DC has been constantly putting on what he personally wants to see and dismissing the fans. The biggest offender of this is his shipping of Barbara x Dick. Fans like Dick and Starfire because their personalities mesh well. Dick is afraid of commitment due to it being a trait that he inherited from Bruce. Him hooking up with a sex crazed alien makes sense because she doesn't see infidelity as we see it. To her it's normal.

I'm just going to say the elephant in the room and say nobody gives a frick about Robin, Nightwing, or his edgy versions and only care about Batman.
Robin will never replace Batman, just like Gohan will never replace Goku, and Miles Morales will never replace Peter Parker. People want the more exciting character, not the more relatable one.
I think I agree with you but what I mean is something like pic rel was a missed opportunity and I think they feel it, so they're trying it now except they can't use bats cuz he's probably in the rocksteady game
Nevertheless batfamily ain't shit without batman yeah
>they can't use bats cuz he's probably in the rocksteady game
I don't know about that. Rocksteady's game takes place in the Arkhamverse. Gotham Knights doesn't.
Yeah but the premise is that Batman's dead, they're secretly trying to trick you to think they're building up on the knight ending meanwhile it's not theirs
DC being a fricking mess as usual but that's my theory anyways.
People like Terry. If they had just made an Arkham Beyond of some sort but they couldnt really due to the awful ending in Arkham Knight where Bruce gets his secret revealed
>Gohan will never replace Goku
Depends. Everyone one outside japan (and judging by how the latest movie did that might be changing) like Gohan more than Goku. He's a more dynamic and interesting character. Unlike Bats sidekicks who will never touch him in that department.
>Unlike Bats sidekicks who will never touch him in that department.
Nightwing and Batgirl can't do that because the Batman editorial demand that they stay beneath him much to the detriment of the brand.
moronic suits and focus testers do dumb shit. I was in focus testing for television years ago and it was painful how out of touch everyone was. It was always boomers in charge and they would get people that had no idea what the source material was and ask for their feedback. I saw tons of really good ideas get canned because it tanked with focus testers in favor of the most generic and sterile corporate safespaces. They just needed a batman game to shit out loot crates, but didn't want batman directly tied to it.
What the frick is this conversation!? It's basically: >Dick: Everything rests on my shoulders... >Barbara: Uh...no....? >Dick: Oh shit, you're right!
Even by comic book and video game standards this is a pretty pathetic attempt at an emotional moment.

Its very clearly lower budget than Arkham Knight by a large margin. I expect this to be shit out the door and get no updates or support whatsoever if its broken technically

Depends on when we're talking and if we're willing to accept it as fair. Batman shouldn't be able to beat Superman, ever.... And yet he does, a lot, because non comic fans and batgays need their special batboy to be the best and strongest and superman ISNT FAIR!!!!! Just about every villain batman faces is a close match when they aren't jobbing for the sake of bullshit
Its exactly the same shit as avengers just without the online 4 player coop. The combat is the same and the loot shit is the same lol. Square for punch and triangle for range attack and circle to dodge and shit like "frost damage" and "fire damage". Pure nonsense in a Batman game when you look at how great the Arkham games were with zero tedious loot or rpg shit.
I assume because they were started in dev years ago and its too late to change now so they just kick it out the door in a shit state to make any money and forget about it. They obviously know its worse than the Arkham games in every way
You build up your reputation over decades making masterpieces then crash and burn it by getting greedy and making a looty live-service cash-grab. Happened with Fallout now it's happening with Arkham series.
I can kind of feel the tide turning. I mean look at the absent hype for Cashgrab Knights. But we need to wake the normies up for this cancer to permanently go away.
That was really funny when they forgot Deadshot was already in the previous games and white so they had to come out with a stupid excuse after fans called them out and they say he wasnt the real deadshot and that this black one killed him or something
>That was really funny when they forgot Deadshot was already in the previous games and white so they had to come out with a stupid excuse after fans called them out and they say he wasnt the real deadshot and that this black one killed him or something
Did this really happen?
I pre ordered this for 30 Euro on a key site. It looks like complete dog shit but I want to try it myself out of curiosity and the only other game I bought this year was Elden Ring so eh.
They had a code sharing agreement when they were making Arkham Origins, I think that agreement expired after WB made the Matter of Family DLC in Knight
>Nobody like loot games
Untrue. Normalgays gobble that shit up on the daily. The reason it keeps showing up everywhere is because 1. devs are creatively bankrupt and 2. even if it's shit, the normalgay cattle love it.
Fallout 76 was a gigantic meme at launch but that fricker Todd still got the last laugh because fallout tards eventually budged and accepted the steamy shit they got on their plate. I don't think it's a top seller for them by any metric but they probably made back the money it took to dev by now.
Anthem had bigger gameplay problems than the looting aspect that are too plentiful to go into detail on one post.
Babylon is a literal fricking who release with zero marketing, bland visuals and no IP recognition.
My point is the gray/green/blue/purple/yellow shit is mimicked by everyone and their grandmas because it works on a deep psychological and at this point it's way too ingrained in the average Joe Schmoe videogame consumer to change it.

Obviously Bethesda knows how much the fans adore him so they bring out any chance they get to shill their next product. I might even have bought Fallout 76 myself if they had officially confirmed that Todd was the actual director for it.
I like looter shit, like Nioh 1 and 2 but I don't want that shit in a fricking Batman game.
Like, I'm sitting here imaging this shit in Arkham Knight and just how poorly it would fit >city empty of pedestrians >things looking grim with fears of toxic gas >constant rain setting the mood >do serious part of the story and beat up thugs >LOL! EXPLOSIONS OF LOOT! COLLECT THEM ALL! WOO YEAH! LOOT!
Remember when tried to salvage FO76 by adding a Battle Royale mode then had to can it cuz noone was playing that shit-heap?
If someone wants the Battle Royal or Looter experience they can easily grab Fortnite or Destiny. People want Batman games for the Superhero experience.
Why do they never bother to animate those strands of hair that stick out around the forehead?
Metal Gear Rising unironically had better physics on that shit, especially in the cinematics where Sam's hair strands actually moved around instead of sticking in place.
You know there's something that I never understood and maybe someone can help me understand
How can some games have these nice looking textures and they actually run so smooth and don't need a battlestation while other games struggle for that performance.
Developer experience around the game being made. Doom is such a well performing game because the same people that made the Quake Engine still work at Id Tech.
Bethesda games typically have shallow performance marks on launch is due to them making their games on the latest Xbox dev kit and the people that made the original Gamebryo Engine left after some shifty South Korean company bought them out.
Rocksteady made the entire Arkham series on Unreal 3
Bethesda has their own engine now but judging from the gameplay demo Starfield looks like it has poor performance. It might be decent by release but who knows.
Series X... World's most powerful console but visuals this bad @ 30FPS performance which isn't even stable? I mean... yikes.

>How can some games have these nice looking textures and they actually run so smooth and don't need a battlestation while other games struggle for that performance.
the trick and hack nature of games
truth is that gpus are still way too slow for what people expect of them, what people call "optimization" is just ways to not show something so the player dost notice, multiple models for levels of detail, reusing the same texture 20x on every object, baking light information ahead of time and so on
That's not Azrael, that's the Crusader, a meta-human raised by the Church who had his meta-genetics manipulated to assume the form of Biblical miracles and stories.
This looks cool as frick but Hollywood and all these fricking commercials with black people has given me Black person fatigue so bad that i'm not even going to give this comic a chance.
I hate what the israelites have done to society.
Can we just get an Arkham Knightwing game about Dick and cut out this live service horseshit?
No because no live service no development in 2022
>emo wing

He was the opposite of Emo.
this isn't a live service game
It might as well be with all the terrible loot and crafting shit and the combat straight out of the rpg assassins creed games

No, he didn't. He faked his death before either of them could win.

why do companies keep making these anyway?
pretty sure there were more flops than games that made money

only 2 player coop not 4 so they couldnt even do that right

Do you think the devs realise they game is shit or do you think they will blame the fans for not getting it
This game probably started development in like 2015 or something when looter shit was more acceptable.
Hopefully they add in Azrael
LMAO wtf is this
Michael Lane was hunting down the Seven Deadly Sins, that page was him killing Pride. Pride was a meta-human that could change sexes at will.
What I don't get it, why is Azrael white now ?
That's not Azrael, that's the Crusader, a meta-human raised by the Church who had his meta-genetics manipulated to assume the form of Biblical miracles and stories.
This looks cool as frick but Hollywood and all these fricking commercials with black people has given me Black person fatigue so bad that i'm not even going to give this comic a chance.
I hate what the israelites have done to society.
I'd rather have a Nightwing game than another Batman one.
He's not wrong
