The Shadow

Charming rogue

Well that sure was...trailery. I don't care for Robin's tunic thing or the neon in the aesthetic. But Red Hood's playable. My interest is piqued.

Not any real indication of just what kind of game it is. With four characters, is it multiplayer?

Was interested until I saw the gameplay. Looked like Marvels Avengers game where it's a hack n slash coupled with online play. Is there a market for this? That game type seems incredibly repetitive and not fun, but that could just be me.
I feel like this was made TO compete with Marvel's Avengers. It does look more appealing that what Square Enix is bringing to the table.

Looks better than the avengers game but still wary since it looks like a weird multiplayer rpg with the numbers poping up and possible gear shit. Just glad they know that after knight there was nowhere to go with bats and just took the batfamily for a spin instead.

the online aspect I agree but I'm moreso getting spider-man ps4 vibes from the open world. seems like if someone like freeze can cause this event the open world might be more dynamic than it was in the arkham games. which makes sense as the arkham games were good mechaniclly but the open world was pretty static for the most part.

I like the character designs for the most part, though Tim's default outfit seems a little weird looking. Why does Jason have glowsticks attached to his guns?

Also, Batman is totally dead, huh? I hope that at least means he won't be taking too much screentime away from the Batfam when he inevitably reveals he's alive.

We see different Batgirl and different Robin costumes in the trailers released so far. Pretty damn likely the game is looting and gear based. Aka microtransactions everywhere. Especially with the knowledge that it will have a level system and level gated missions.

The character models are significant downgrades to what was done in the Arkham-verse. WAY less detail. I'm wondering if this was done as a cost for what appears to be a larger world map.

let me just try and get my thoughts out.

The combat changing, does that suck? Kinda. But on the otherhand, Arkhams combat system wasn't made for proper boss fights. Rocksteady either flat out didn't make any boss fights or forced you to fight Giant Monsters, even when it made no sense.

Arkham Origins had the best boss fights, but even still, that mostly boiled down to pressing attack and then hitting counter every now and then. This new system might better lend itself to actual boss fights.

Getting to free roam with all of the sidekicks would be nice, I've always wanted a Red Hood game and this...is as close as I'm gonna get it seems.

I don't like the RPG/Loot mechanic I know is going to be in this.

I guess all in all, it's not what I wanted. But it's not completely what I didn't want?

also just to quickly answer anyones question, game has full 2 player co-op and isn't related to the Arkhamverse.

It looks ok I think the story will be fine but the online portion will be the main focus after the games release.Also count on hundreds of fucking Riddler trophies in this one.

I don't think it's fair to describe it as a change. It's not an Arkham game and hasn't been advertised as such.

hasn't been advertised period. I think when you get a certain formula for 4 games, and then a new game, in the same genre, with the same characters, comes out and it's a different formula. that can be considered change.

Eh, point taken. Though I still think it's off to really compare this game to Arkham.

At least it’s not an online service type of game like the Avengers game is. Batman isn’t dead in this game he got captured by the Court of the Owls.
