Arkham Origins is a fun game, but overall it is mainly just a standalone expansion of Arkham City, which in a way is a good thing since Arkham City is a great game, but don't expect any major improvements when heading into Origins. That said the Boss Fights in this game are in my opinion the best of the series, and the story is also criminally overlooked, even considering the twist that some found disappointing, as a fan of the characters it still makes total sense and works well.

That said the side content in Origins is lacking compared to City, which is largely due to WB only giving the devs a year to make the game, which when considering, it's really impressive how well it came out.
