Haha what if scarecrow had an actual boss fight like in the game where scarecrow is the main villain, that'd be CRAZY

When I played Arkham Knight for the first time eight and a half years ago, perhaps my greatest disappointment from the game was the lack of amazing Scarecrow segments that were famously in Arkham Asylum. Those scenes in the original game scared the crap out of me as a kid, and played with gaming conventions masterfully - it was the first time I remember a game taking advantage of the fourth wall, and with such phenomenal results. Arkham Knight mostly drops these. Yes, there's are fear toxin-fueled scenes of confusion like in Asylum, but they're all centered around the Joker and, with the exception of perhaps the last one, aren't horrific at all.

Where were the masterclass subversions of the first game? Couldn't there at least be some mind-altering scenes that change the setting like in Asylum?

Well, as it turns out, kind of? But with huge asterisks. DLC that was originally exclusive to the PS4 release of Arkham Knight, the "mind-altering scenes" just being Gotham on fire with a giant Scarecrow poking needles and having Superman's heat vision for some reason, and instead of being on foot as Batman, you're in the Batmobile, following a linear path through the fiery city until you reach a boss portion where you pump lead into Scarecrowzilla for a minute. It's simple stuff. Nothing like you would hope for from what came before or what was hyped up in advertising.

But disappointing things can still be fun, right? Well, kinda yeah. This isn't a must play DLC by any means, but if you enjoy playing with the Batmobile, I don't see why you wouldn't enjoy this, especially since you're serenaded by John Noble's sultry Scarecrow voice delivering his hardest lines that aren't anywhere in the main game.

If you choose to play on the Switch version of the game, just know that this is perhaps the most prone to crashing the Switch version gets. It's not gonna happen every time, but it can happen. Most people will be playing this on the PS4, though, I'm sure, in which case you should be fine.

Este dlc es un meh constante, no le veo la necesidad de su lanzamiento ni tampoco la diversión de jugarlo.
