Gotham Knights bad amirght bois? Well yeah, that's fair given how the media treated this game. Can't blame anyone for not seeing it for what it actually is. Hope people give this video more of a chance than the game itself. And it gives you a new perspective. Hopefully, one that appreciates the game for how good it is

    I didn’t even know about the game until Gamepass. Not a major gamer. But it reminds me of Spiderman, Assassin’s Creed and Arkham games. It doesn’t do any of the three as well, but it does each at about 65%. But being three different AAA games and adding a co-op is amazing! If anyone had told me someone would’ve tried to pull that off, I would have called them insane.

    The thing is the enemies are smarter. Like when when choosing a buff ability they will use that moment to punish you. And like a talon will attack you and the bystanders will throw their spike things at the same time. And the buff enemies always seem to know when to intervene when tryna take out the little guys. But this is on hardest mode and high levels.

    I understand these things are subjective. However Gotham Knights is not promoted as a sandbox game. It’s a co-op RPG playing as the bat family so some of the things you desire will simply not be applicable. I don’t understand what you want from this game with that in mind. Things like day/night cycle make’s very little sense when these characters are known to be active at night. When you say lack of interactivity what do you mean? As you can talk to NPC’s to get rewards and there’s a small narrative to help the city with a group of NPC’s lol Also the crime variety is actually quite nice. Bomb threats and organ trafficking promotes stealth. Each crimes has other unique objectives and gets harder as you progress with the game There’s car chases and other things. But yeah I understand desiring mission variety. Granted this games co-op is ambitions. You can do team takedowns. Interact with the world in a few different ways in co-op that no other game especially superhero has offered. I can complete side actives and crimes without the player there.A lot of things you desire simply won’t be available as the co-op is the most ambitious part of this game also if not in the main story co-op heroic assault offers that co-op itch you may desire especially given how different the heroes are Bad performance is intriguing to me? You may be playing on PC or so on but I understand being turned off from this game if you’re experience is bad Also there is races you can do and other ways you can interact with the world and it’s missions. Like I did these things are subjective but the games design philosophy doesn’t seem to match what you wanted/expected of this game.

    I would love for Batman to become playable in Gotham knights but I have thought of alternatives like for example maybe Batman could come in if you reach low health and helps you take down the remaining criminals, then gives you advice on how to do better in a similar situation. Like for example say you are trying to take out an unarmed thug and your not paying attention and you get shot from behind by an armed guy. If it takes you down to flashing read health a swarm of bat's envelopes the area and the criminals all get freaked out and you and Batman take down all the goons. 😅 Think that'd be awesome. Then Batman scolds you and gives you advice on how to better handle the situation you were in with facing an unarmed foe but get blitzed by a gunman.

I love abilities but I realize I only use half of them

    one of my personal favorite things about the crime system is that if you hang around when your hero says "time to go", the cops will actually show up and attack you if you're not hiding, unlike in Spider-Man where he says stuff like that but you can just chill without any real issue. The infinite dodge of the drone type enemy is actually something that's explained in one of the training room instances... it's called Evasion Flurry and the small Talons have it too. If I could change one thing about the game, it would be removing Evasion Flurry, straight up. The two enemy types that have it already have some other gimmick that makes them unique (drones and revival), and dealing with it can be downright unfair at times.

A new Batman game to fill that hole Arkham knight left. After seeing Suicide Squad, I only wish GK was lined up to be the Arkham sequel. It almost feels weird that it’s not. I’m almost done with Knight after playing all the Arkham games again. I’m gonna play GK right after and see if my opinion changes with the old games fresh in my mind. You do make a good point about the combat. I don’t think many people bothered to learn it. They just rushed out to call it bad. Once I figured out to use different elemental attacks on different enemies it was like a eureka moment. Now that guy you’ve been punching over and over goes down in 3 hits

Sure, i was overloaded with information at the start but after a while, I am loving it and havign tons of fun. I agree with what you said about the crimes here. Its dynamic and it keeps things fresh.

You navigate the world with a grapnel hook (if you're playing Batgirl you even use the same cape glide), there is an underlying detective theme, the stealth is similar in design though much more stripped down than in the Arkham games, the gameplay loop of beat up and interrogate low level criminals to work your way towards their supervillain boss is similar. Consider this game was the exact same but was an entirely new IP. It would still draw comparisons to the Arkham games.

I think because of that alone should make one think “yeah I can do this in both games” but it’s the how and why that really matters. Why would combat be a free flow combat in a single player game…? That wouldn’t translate that well in a multiplayer setting. The comparisons drawn are really really surface level granted there is some that can be made.

    Combat is very basic until you unlock those skills that let you block basic attacks. Block & Parry need to be basic abilities that can be levelled up using skill tree. I got tired of pressing that dodge button, its just button mashing. Also until you progress with each hero & unlock unique skills, the combat is so similar no matter what hero you play. Thats nuts & makes early game boring.

    Progression in the game is odd. Like I said though given how you can play each hero at any time. It seems like they’re wanting to make the game accessible to pick up. For example if I was playing robin for four hours (got knighthood and so on) switching to nightwing will be a more easier transition. More I invest into him the more I get a better feel for how he plays. A lot of games do this quite frankly and it works for most people and I appreciate it Also I will say every character should have a ability to counter most if not all enemies after the black gate mission. “Piercing abilities” as they’re called

    Yep they should've given you the base traversal and then knighthood line can improve speed and add new abilities etc. I just started the game a day or so ago first thing that felt off is that. like why do I have to unlock the option to sprint essentially lol and it's not one thing it's a few white trying to learn to navigate it still looks good runs good so far no issues there I just see that as the first speed bump in my playthrough not a massive deal but if you did not know it and missed that it could drastically change your opinion on the game for sure

    I say Gotham knights were pretty good but this could be something they can start for like the small heroes like Robin all of them bad girl back woman Green arrow like what went down during this event of Gotham Knight because if you look up the Easter eggs they mention all of them they actually extended the DC universe something that the Arkham trilogy really didn't do much now for the Arkham trilogy here's my opinion they should do a Superman game during the Arkham trilogy they said suicide squad took place after Arkham we saw Superman on the trailer so he asked me he exists in the Arkham universe and that was rumors saying they're going to make a Superman game that will be cool to take place during the Arkham universe but I will keep Gotham nights for like the small heroes like I said so Gotham Knight was a pretty good idea it's also a gives Robin Nightwing red hood and Batgirl and the spotlight and also they can put more people than future games like green arrow batwoman The flash cyborg

    The problem is that it was released half baked. This is the problem as a whole with the gaming indistry in general. Its the industry standard now to just release a game unfinished because they can apply updates and patches later... this is unacceptable. Especially when alot of games are charging more and more.. which isnt inflation so dont believe that bs. I didnt grow up with a lot of money. So if i spoil myself a little and spend money on something i expect a certain quality out of what i buy. As consumers we allow the gaming industry to pull this shit by pre-purchasing and buying into products to early, allowing the industry to continue to with the money hungry schemes and the rushing of products to be released at a certain time.. instead of releasing the best product they can at launch. Cyber punk, fallout 76, gotham knights... but theyre ok a year later so its ok... no.. no its not

    ​@berice4390 Look every review isnt gonna be a resonable review. But you cant tell me that im wrong about how games are being released. Everybody has there own opinion. And ok then, its probably that the game doesnt offer much for replay ability. Sure theres four characters to play through... cool. Problem is that once you beat the main story its a ridiculous grind of repetitive fights that just arent that fun after a while. Youre aloud to think the games good and other people are aloud to think its shit. The point i was making was that yeah, if a games released in a state such as gotham knights and other games are then dont be suprised when it catches a bunch of shit. Youre gonna have people that bitch about dumb shit but that doesnt mean that every single person is necessarily wrong. You make the pint that the issues with the game and reviews dont have anything to do with it being unfinished. Well yeah if a games released in a state like that then yes people arent going to be happy. And you just said the game has issues... another reason why the game caught shit. So your argument is that yes the game was released unfinished and yes the game had issues but people are wrong because of that. Ok.then its probably the other stuff i mentioned.

It's not Spider-Man anymore. It's just a Spider-Man product. This game actually continued the Arkham story and took a lot of stuff from the comics and animated series. That's my childhood, and it seems like they had enough respect for the fan base by not baiting us with pointless advertising about web swinging and being able to finally wear the symbiote.

    I played the game co op with my brother and we enjoyed it quite a bit. I'm not one who cares about fps. I honestly don't notice and so usually play on quality mode at 30fps with Ray tracing on ps5 anyway. If it's not competitive multi-player, which I don't play, I don't think it matters. In co op we stuck to 1 character, I being Nighwing, my brother playing Robin...if we played without the other we'd level up and play the other characters we normally ignored. I find lots of games I like/love, that others hate. I haven't paid attention to reviewers or allowed a review tonaffect a purchase I made in 15 years. Why would i? I'm the one who knows what I like. Journos aren't even good usually, admit to playing only on easy at times, not finishing a game, giving a review to someone on staff who hates the genre...and nowadays I've seen games praised all the way through only to give it a 6 or 7 because it doesn't have enough inclusiveness or something ridiculous. Like Kingdom Come which journos liked but rated lower because there wasn't enough black people in Bohemia in 1400AD. Give me a break. And yes, IGN is trash...Alien Isolation is one of the best games ever made...or how about their classic Wind Waker review where they said it had too much water...in a game world made of water and small islands. Most KZreadr reviewers j7st watch for a couple then copy paste their opinions. Looking back at my own library list with my own personal review scores just for me...I gave Gotham Knights an 8.8 out of 10 and had really hoped for story dlc. My brother already played through it a 2nd time solo. I would, but have way too many games. 202 physical ps5 alone, plus 30+ digital, plus almost 600 Switch, etc, etc. I can't even find time for the 6 VR games I bought to go with VR2. But I agree, good game. Riding the motorcycle is a blast, but the traversal are so fun, you barely need it.

    When it launched it didn't even got interested in the idea, an ''Batman game without Batman'' is really not appealing. But playing it through Game Pass, changed my mind a lot. Yeah i'd still prefer to play Arkham but the gameplay it's nowhere near bad, i feel the difference each time i change character, but the cutscenes are what sold it for me. The chemistry between the group, their personal stories and even some of them is practically the best portrayal of said characters i've seen in a while. The main mistake is going to this game expecting Arkham and it's not. But if indeed was a sequel to Arkham Knight, had more complex combat instead of the same shit Marvel's Spider Man did, less bullshit skill trees and more budget(Graphics, optimization, etc), i thing this could've been an amazing game.

    Really great video. I think my major issue with GK is that to me it largely felt unsatisfying. Early game combat is not very fun, especially on Hard difficulty. It is not actually difficult, the enemies have a healthbar the size of a small country even if you are keeping up with gear and skills. Late game combat is repetitive and has not been interesting since like hour 10. The gear gets super stagnant. The major difference between early game gear and mid game gear is elemental effects. The difference between mid and late game is more mod slots which are largely boring and lack impact. Combat is fun but lacks a lot of depth and impact. The characters feel sligjtly different(besides Red Hood who feels vedy different). Stealth was very dissapointing to me. I never found stealth fun in this game regardless of character. Traversal is downright awful to me in this game. The batcycle does not feel good to operate. In regards to heroic traversal: Batgirl feels okay, Nightwing just feels slow, Red Hood feels slow, and Robin is boring and slow. I do not like traversing as anyone. I generally do not fast travel often in games but this game made me fast travel often because it felt bad to move. It feels like the characters are wearing ice skates. Story starts good but I dislike how they did the Court and the League. I dont like the characters for the most part, and the voice performances are the definition of a mixed bag. Side content was... fine I guess. I liked the cases but was mixed on the story. There needed to be more and they needed to be longer. Heroic Assault is one of the worst experiences I have had gaming in the past few years. It is bloated, boring, and not really worth doing. Performance: I frankly find this to be a thoroughly unimpressive "next gen experience". I find remasters and ports of PS4 games run better than Gotham Knights. It looks pretty but it did not run well. Jedi Survivor struggled to maintain 60fps on performance mode, Gotham Knights struggled to maintain 30fps at all... I'll take Survivor over GK any day of the week. I think the comparisons to Arkham Knight are because they are both DC and both involve Batman. BAK was the previous Batman game, this was the newest one. People were bound to compare the two. I have my issues with other superhero games but they felt much more consistent than GK in almost every category. I appreciate GK for what it tried but I seem to be the only one of my friends who can finish the darn game. I have tried with two friends now and each time they end up wanting to play something else. They both like comics, superheroes, and like at least some of the characters in this game. I was able to enjoy aspects of this game, the animations are excellent, I love that the cutscenes are changed for each character, the suits are great, Gotham looks good, the variety of enemy types is appreciated, and the option to play online is great. I think it is an okay game but fails to live up to expectations. I had a friend who summed this game up as the Fallout 76 of superhero games. It is functional, can be fun with friends, has a fun world, but is largely unimpressive. To me it is a fun time that people seem to misunderstand. It isnt th best thing ever, but it doesnt suck ass at every turn. I prefer other combat systems but can still have fun in GK. It works, it is a decent time and I reccomend it to anyone if it is on a deep sale or get it off PS Plus or game pass.

What would move this 6 to an 8 for me would be combat tweaks. Most people who doesn't like the game are people whose only played a few minutes, ***EXPECTED ARKHAM***, or just don't understand the combat seems to be the popular things to say. I understand the combat, but the mechanics that were supposed to make it more compelling just made it less enjoyable than it could have been because it looks really good.

The incredibly weird stop and go pacing with needing to redo your gear just so you can keep up with the enemies feels odd. And defending what was not design choices for fun but instead predatory business practices just seems like copium. I really wanted to like this game, but it was a straight stinker

    Cutscene takedowns? Odd way of putting it considering Arkham has a input to do exactly that. In my video I elaborated on the combat and specific nuances to it. Proving it isn’t just “button mashing” The idea of a gear system that is predatory is up for debate but genuinely that’s just how RPG’s work and it’s not like the game doesn’t hand such gear out as you progress through the story (it literally does). To me it seems this game just wasn’t for you I appreciate you trying to like it

    @@berice4390 pre animated takedowns, whatever you want to call them. Arkham didn't zoom in on the character and you lose control for a sweeping shot of some strange takedown that sometimes caused graphical glitches of you floating in the air as you are doing some somersault in the air on a bad guy. It was something you had to activate and only have going through combat without actually getting hit for the ability to do it. Not automatically triggered from the last man standing. You may be able to finesse combat to go beyond just button mashing, but at the end of the day you aren't forced to and can complete combat without doing anything skillful, unlike Arkham if you try to start button mashing you're going to lose. However, I'm still going to call the finesse button mashing as you aren't changing your button pressing nearly as much and instead just timing the press of the same button. Don't try the bs of "that's just how rpgs work" I can point to plenty of rpgs that don't force unrelenting grinds design to justify micro transactions to sell you a "resource pack" in the name of time saving convenience. It's that kind of defending why companies continue to load games down with this kind of bs.

    You can make the point that the takedowns are glitchy and if that’s really something that bothers you that’s valid. Personally I cannot recall a time that happened to me. I think you can argue that you can still play the Arkham games by button more so then this game. It depends on which game. Of course. But honestly comparing these two games on its combat is like comparing apples or oranges. There is really little to compare and I’ve stressed how much it makes sense to do so. You simply cannot get the same experience of combat between the two and that isn’t a bad thing inherently. It really comes down to personal preference. I’ve elaborated on why these differences matter in my video. How this game is built on a different frame work and such. That being said you are rewarded for playing the game and not button mashing. My section on combat I hope highlights this. Also what are you talking about resource packs the game has no micro transactions Dude. The gameplay loop can consists of you going out and fight crime to get gear. There is issues with how rewarding said gear and perhaps how to navigate it. But calling predatory and such is quite frankly a lie and is exactly why I made this video.

    @@berice4390 go stand near stairs when hitting the last enemy, or near a cliff that sorta corners an edge. I've seen it more than a few times. You'd be wrong trying ro argue the arkham games are more button mashing. If you don't use the correct combinations plus the right timing and just whale on the attack button, then you will go down and get the restart screen. With Gotham you can completely limp through the game's combat without any real finesse. The reason people compare the combat to Arkham is because people were wanting that combat system, not the one that was given. As for talking about microtransactions I was confusing it for the live service avengers, so my bad there. I still feel the grinding is way to obtuse and if it's just to pad out game time, then that's bad in it's own way. (just not as bad as for microtransactions sales)

    @@umokwhy2830 once again I’ll elaborate on this games framework. The game can be played with four different characters. With specific nuances. Can be played co-op. With that in mind it’ll simply not be possible to have the same level of depth as the Arkham games. Different frame works. Context matters. All because I can play the games button mashy doesn’t make it bad. It just makes the player “bad” but I’ve clearly demonstrated there’s a lot to consider to get the most out of combat. For a satisfying experience. This is just how the game works. The more things you learn and invest in the more you’ll actually get out of. Anyone can play the arkham games just button mashing and not engaging with the other things in combat maybe not on the hardest difficulty but I’ve seen KZreadrs do this. More specifically Arkham Asylum (first game. So the combat isn’t that much in depth) Once again if that’s how you feel about the games gear I can’t argue with that. I simply never had it ruin my experience. If you didn’t wanna engage with that then play on the lowest difficulty. I’ll also ask you to consider other RPG’s that you’ve played on the hardest difficulty that had it so you didn’t have to grind for gear. Because every RPG I’ve touched on the hardest difficulty I’ve ended up having to grind for gear. If you yourself had issues with it in this game that’s fine I can see why other people wouldn’t wanna engage with it. But that’s just how Other games like it work. Like I said as the games story progresses it legit just gives you gear up to your level so you don’t have to engage with the grind all the time and just engage the story

    The gliding system should've been added from the beginning with added upgrades throughout. Most pf the complaints came from the movement system the combat is very clunky. The investigative system while intriguing is honestly kinda bad they could've done more. It's compared to Arkham because a lot of the game is similar to arkham the stealth is terrible and useless. You can't use it to do really anything so the stealth upgrades are useless yes the training exists but the gear score and lack of ability to mitigate damage makes combat a slog. The grinding aspect is the worst partb and it's boring you rinse and repeat. There's no comparison with odyssey as personally someone who loved odyssey it's not repetitive. And the abilities are more satisfying your attacks feel like you do damage as well as there's just a ton more content and rpg elements. Gotham knights is not a rpg or virtually has no comparison to odyssey outside maybe the way gear works 😊

    Movement definitely is the weakest link of the game I don’t disagree. However the gear does infact mitigate damage. Early game it may not be apparent but characters like batgirl have abilities that does this. Momentum abilities are ways to counter attacks when used properly as it’s tutorialized. Gotham Knights is a RPG not entirely the same sense as odyssey but the same mindset one has for odyssey can be applied. In terms of its progression and gear system but yeah that’s it. Stealth can be argued it’s lacking but so is odysssey and marvels Spider-Man. I do think Gotham knights pushes for more meaningful stealth but it doesn’t compare to Arkham but I don’t expect it to
