how do i hotdog
i mean, its fucking club penguin its awesome
This game is absolutely stunning visually!
Combat and movement is fluid and speedy!
Depiction of Gotham City is eerie and clearly crime ridden mainly due to the event of the story.
But I couldn't see myself enjoying this as much as the others in the series, noticeable crashes at random parts, feeling way too overpowered at times, to a point that I did not even play predator sections how they were intended because it was so easy to go guns blazing!
Best thing about this was the story tbh, I was shocked with it! The whole Arkham Knight reveal got me! and seeing Batman struggle to process Joker is dead is a sad one to see.
Although I have yet to do Knightfall protocol, Im kinda sick and tired of Riddler so I cba to do it, might just look it up.
But my god the whole setting and the way the story overlaps with the side quests was a welcome one, even if Deathstroke was underwhelming. Kinda makes the tease for him being part of the suicide squad irrelevant Fuck you Arkham Origins!

I want a VR headset just for this game and Village, anything else is an extra bonus.

The fact that I managed to play this game by avoiding any spoilers for 7 years is amazing, this is a must play for indie-gamers that got buried by the release of the indie game that must not be spoken of.

The Crashfish made me piss my pants more than any of the leviathans.
Pokémon X

I decided to play through all of the 3DS Pokemon games before they turn online off, try to relive a part of my childhood. Yeah this one still kinda sucks lol.
Ok This game has a lot of faults.
but lets get the good out of the way!
I really love how they portrayed Bruce/Batman, he's new to this still, he's still learning his techniques, meeting infamous villain's. You can tell by the way he interrogates, intimidates and shows a lack of self control when a Villain completes their task and kills or seriously injures a large amount of people.
Deadshot Side quest was super fun, Especially the predator room boss battle, although I did Thanos snap him out of existence by accident.
Anarky was a great addition to the roster of villians.
Electric Gloves were awesome! Why the hell did he get rid of them for Arkham Asylum lol
AND THE INVESTIGATIONS THEY WERE SO MUCH FUN!
Now for the bad!
While playing this game on stream, I experienced 28 crashes that lost me progress on riddler sidequests, main story sidequests and boss encounters, was very annoying.
This game has aged badly imo!
Combat feels very floaty for some reason, not quite sure how to explain it, but I would get hit by literally nothing in situations that would either kill me outright, or ruin an extremely high combo counter, ALSO NO CRIT ATTACKS WOT!?
Speed for gliding feels minimised compared to the previous two entries, and makes the game feel larger, but its evident that this Open World is smaller, and the bridge is too damn long.
Final Boss Battle was a joke against Bane, Didnt get hit once. and I was playing on the hardest difficulty.
This game is still worth a play for the Side quests and the main story seeing Bruce become acquainted with some of his most famous villains.

I put Marriage and smoke together and created a divorce.
Cant really complete this game, but I made Horus, which was a goal.

Ok this I feel is going to be one of my best reviews for a game.
Disclaimer, I strongly dislike Turn based, JRPGs. Ok so seeing this rating must be shocking!
I played this as a bet for something ridiculous that my friend did which took an entire year, so I didn't back out of playing this.
I went into thinking it was going to be another predictable anime game, oh boy was I wrong!
So this was on gamepass, played for free, but I would happily buy this.
The Story really hooked me on the basis its mature, questions morality and forces the player to make decisions and choosing to embrace death, I saw them shoot themselves and gasped! Was not expecting all of this!
I struggle with story based games if there are no breaking points, emotion moments or fantastic spectacles. This had all of them, I can count four moments where I got teary, THANKS GAME! and plenty of moments where I was stunned. and the ending just made me happy and relieved they did what they set out to do despite your characters end which I named myself "CUNT CUNT" Because funny.
During this playthrough which yes I did all live one stream being over 14 hours, I found out that this game is merely a spin off, which is making me want to play even more! I felt empty after I watched the credits and now just want to play more!!!
Music was incredible, catchy, memorable, and I've even added some into my own personal playlist to listen to while gaming or going about my day.
The combat while simple and easy to understand was engaging, while I think the Persona attacks were tedious and having to watch our characters shoot themselves in the head 200 plus times, I was never bored.
Barely had to do any grinding for the end game, Id say about 2 hours total in my playthrough was grinding. I played on normal btw.
The Selection of Personas were great although unlike pokemon I probably wont remember them if you was to say their name, but a pic I would, I chose to end the game with Beezlebub and Satan, what a lovely duo!
The Remastered cutscenes and animations were brilliant after watching a side by side comparisons. The VAs who I found out the VA for Mitsubishi my nickname for Kiroji is a twitch streamer, bloody awesome! all did fantastic in their roles, especially Junpei and Revolver Jesus.
Tartarus Tower I enjoyed despite it apparently being disliked among the community, find that strange, loved exploring except for the DJ floors, that was really messing with my eyes.
Now after all this you are probably wondering why I've removed half a star, I found the pacing of the story to be a bit shallow, good story just after the whole shadow stuff and then Ryoji coming in, I found the quality in the hub world to be a bit bland, by then the school break was on, I had finished a lot of the social links, had my stats max, so I was found in a monotonous cycle of going arcade levelling my personas and doing the same thing every night. Will mention I was also at the border floors by the second visits and had been completing all the requests as they became available. Elizabeth is a fight I am gonna struggle with!
But yeah thats my thought on this. I genuinely went into this thinking I was gonna hate it, came out regretting that I have never played a Persona game, and now wanting more.
Next stop Persona 4 when I feel like I want to sink 80 plus hours into another JRPG
also Junpei is a fiend xD
