I played this like, non-stop when I got it off GamePass. It had been a few years since I played a new Arkham game and I slipped back into the Batsuit like I never left. Amazing combat, the Batmobile actually rules, and traversing Gotham really does make you feel like Batman.

Also, a way better plot than I had anticipated. I had heard so, so, so many complaints about the plot that I had preemptively written it off but I found myself really enjoying the narrative. It's very grandiose and comic booky but I think it ties together the narrative throughline of the Arkham series very well and acts as a better version of what The Dark Knight Rises so desperately wanted to be.
