The open world Wild Area is quite cool and with Gen 9 coming soon it was a nice look to the future but woah this was not good. Very fetch questy and then incredibly grindy when you need to get a Level 15 Kubfu to level 70! And other than bringing the old Pokemon back this DLC only added like 4 more Pokemon??? Cool.

I actually think if you're not expecting "Arkham Next" then this is probably decent, but the gameplay is just ok and none of the set dressing did anything for me.
There's a thing people used to always say about the Arkham Games: "They wouldn't be as good if Batman wasn't in them". Which almost doesn't make any sense because he is, but I actually kind of get it now.
In Arkham's Gotham, there is so much care put into the environment. I don't have much extended Batman knowledge but it was fun to see certain buildings/posters and think "oh look that's a reference to something!"
The same kind of references exist in this game (I think) but I didn't get ANY of them. I dunno man, it feels like this is set in "Gotham", it all just feels so fake.
I remember when this first got teased and Batman nerds said "The Court of Owls story is so cool! I can't wait to see it done well on screen"... keep waiting.
Everything about this is just disappointing if you have any expectations...also it runs like shit!

Completed exceeded any expectations I had, incredible. I can't believe they made an Avengers Endgame moment in only two games. Everything after you blow the horn is immaculate.
That final shot of him looking at the shrine where he is the hero and loved by everyone. One of the best things I have ever seen in games, Christopher Judges performance/the animators went off in that scene, and then the score comes in!
I don't think this games looks insanely good to make it a shoe-in for best Art Direction (it still looks amazing ofc) but whoever animated that first Ratatoskr scene deserves the world.
I NEED a GDC talk about how they designed the collectibles for this game because they are insanely good, I had 43/48 Ravens by the end of the game! Mad.
Also Playstation All Stars is CANON!

I love MW2019 and would have happily accepted more of the same but this just didn’t do anything for me at all. Was literally just playing it it to finish it by the end.
Also the first game ends on a genuinely cool post credits type scene that got me hyped up, this one tries the same but fails imo. SPOILER is not the Thanos they think he is.
Apparently the multiplayer is alright so hey ho
