The emotions were very high, you felt like real things were at stake here and the twists and revelations in the final act were remarkable. From the brilliant opening to the haunting final shot, I've rarely been more immersed in a story in a game like this one.

With all of that being said, the highlight of the game is absolutely the story. These aren't just ordinary boring fights like they were before. Every boss fight was fantastic (except for the last one, ironically) and challenging, keeping things fresh and utilizing all of the weapons in your arsenal. A lot of people, myself included, were disappointed by the lackluster boss fights in Asylum and to say that they stepped up their game with this one would be to really under appreciate just how much they improved on that front. I'm so surprised that a game of this nature was fused with such rich and diverse detail. The detail was out of this world, from the dark and perfectly toned scenery to just the simple things like thugs talking about the villains while you fly overhead. There's a lot of thinking and strategy needed for many parts of the game and there were definitely a few moments where I had to stop for a few moments to figure out just what to do. You also don't have the easy move of being able to use Detective Mode nonstop, which is a huge step up. When surrounded by a group of thugs you have to employ Waynetech and prioritize who to go after, instead of just hopping around like in the first game. Even the basic combat with thugs never got repetitive (which it did quickly in Asylum), and unlike Asylum, instead of just button-mashing you actually have to use a lot of strategy in even the most basic combat. The gameplay was brilliant, kept everything feeling fresh and exciting.

Plus I didn't do any side stuff, which I'm sure will give me another five or so hours at least. The story could have been a little longer probably, but I'm sure it was at least ten hours which for a game like this is very impressive. I don't know, everything about the game was so perfect for me. Talk about a game completely living up to expectations. The Joker: I've spent weeks shipping samples of my blood to emergency rooms all over the city.īatman: So that's Protocol 10: poison Gotham. sucking down that last breath, knowing Gotham is doing the same. I nearly had a cure it was so close and then it was taken from me.īatman: So we both die. Look, we're running out of time, I need your help.

The Joker: Nice of you to say, but you of all people should know. Why spoil the fun?īatman: It was all a lie. The Joker: No one's who you think they are, my dear. Harley Quinn: Aw, but I wanna know who he is, sweetie!
