  • Gotham Knights has gotten a lot of criticism since its release, which makes sense, but I do think there's a lot of good things about the game that get ignored. T and I decided to semi-review the game so far and these are our thoughts. #gothamknights #gaming #batman

      A game that had veterans like Patrick redding who worked on games like splinter Cell and Geoff Ellenor. Then we'll add the resources they had. Even for a first game they stumbled and some of the shortcomings are on them. Informing fans that they canceled the last Gen 5 months out on top of that nightwing and redhood demo which what turned people against this game.
      Titanfall was build from scratch, and it had satisfying shooting mechanics and then we have titanfall 2 which is fantastic. Jedi fallen order is the studios first game in melee combat genre and its beloved with an anticipated sequel. Rocksteady's first game was Urban Chaos riot response a fps that failed because it released at the end of the ps2 generation then we have arkham asylum their first melee game that changed the genre of superhero games and the freeflow which influenced the design of many 3rd person action games and Rocksteady didn't have notable names at the time.

      @@phantom3146 No please do not get it twisted I'm agreeing with you. I'm not talking in defense of WB Montréal if anything there is no excuse for them to put out a game as bad or mediocre (depending on who ask) as this.
      I'm also hopeful to an extent but there was a job listing and it seems they are doubling down on this style of game. It's a separate team so maybe it can be better but I don't trust Patrick redding and the gotham Knights dev team. The sad thing is that the game didn't have to be revolutionary. Jedi fallen is made up by the sum of its parts taking from uncharted or tomb raider with the puzzles and exploration metroid and soul like combat but simplified. The first titan fall wasn't perfect but the second one.
      Shabba games made web of shadows in 18 months great gameplay and clear love for the source material it's not pretty visually but it's great to play (hope insomniac is taking notes for Spiderman 2)
      Spiderman is also a game that takes from previous Spiderman games hell and a bit of arkham especially in quality (Brian Intihar said in an interview and their biggest aim was the the quality of the arkham games). Guardians of the galaxy was redeemed by it's narrative and environments and gotham knights has let some people down even on that front. The best part was the opening cinematic and that it.
      But I genuinely hope future projects are good.

And the other half wanted Arkham's gritty looks, even Digital Foundry stated that GK had better environmental textures and on par characters models than AK. And, they were mostly negative about the game. )
      If nothing else, things Gotham Knights does fairly well is far better character writing for the bat family, environmental textures, colors, and far better usage of randomly generated events based on the setting.

    I think my least favorite part of the game is that there are no thugs. None of the enemies make me feel like I’m in a Batman game. The regulators are cyberpunk characters, the mob looks absolutely nothing like a mob, and the freaks look okay but have some of the worst dialogue I’ve ever heard in my life. I also don’t find it fun to fight anyone because there’s always a tedious tank or drone controller.

    I would argue conceptually this is the MOST comic book batfamily experience. Doing the premeditated crimes with these comic book locations gives it a cinematic feel. And having this city have many different areas of side quests that you face over the course of many days really shows the pressure the batfamily face with their days expanding relationships and world building(justice league calls) from this angle while it is less focused of a game I would argue it is the most accurate comic book batfamily experience.

    Gotham knights has a good original story that allows you to play Nightwing, Red Hood, Batgirl, and Robin. Which my double team pair was batgirl and red hood (Read Three Jokers and you see why this is the best pair in my opinion).
    And to make it even more eye catching they made the gotham knights team resemble a famous ninja team from new york Nightwing (Leonardo), Red Hood (Raphael), Batgirl (Donatello), Robin (Michelangelo)

      Leo, and Nightwing doesn't really match in personality. While Nightwing is the most optimistic, hopeful, friendly, and funny member of his familiy, Leo is very introverted, serious, dedicated, and strict.
      But Raphael resembles Red Hood in personality, Batgirl matches Donny's intellect, and Tim has Mikey's optimism, and innocence.

    They said that other than one or two people this isn't even the same team that made Origins, so this is not only their first original game but basically this studio's first game in general and it's a lot more younger developers at most some having some experience from 2010's Ubisoft
    That's rough with the very high bar that Rocksteady set not only with Arkham Asylum (which was also still their second game I think?) but then also raised higher by refining their game more and more with two sequels so it's really like comparing Batman and Robin in terms of experience (Their interview brought up this parallel) and I do not think that games inherently will be better just because they're newer
    Of course that's on their side though, from our side in purely a how high quality of a product are we getting compared to others available for the same price I still like it enough as a batfamily fan that I've put in a good amount of hours in despite not being a motivated person and I'm still playing even though I've slowed down

    Regarding traversal:
    The game actually has a rather serviceable parcour system, it just goes completely unused thanks to the omni directional grapple. Imho that is the single worst traversal choice. Robin's and Red Hood's special traversal are a close second though.
    Speaking of which, Batgirl's glide is a worse version of the Arkham one. That would be fine if it was well integrated into a parcour system. Nightwing's is just creatively bankrupt, giving him straight up flight.

    I'm a bit afraid to dive fully into the video because I don't want to get spoiled and I just started playing the game. I think this game got too much hate just because it was overshadowed by the arkham series which is probably a masterpiece and probably my best game series (very close with DMC for me). I don't mind at all their new approach with the new combat, personally as a red hood lover I think I love this red hood gameplay a lot more than I did in batman arkham knight but I do think it could have been improved. Every dialogue being kind of different based on who you play it's a pretty nice touch aswell, the co-op side of the game it's interesting but unfortunately I never had anyone to play it with yet so I have no clue how the performance will be but it might be fun for sure, DC universe online vibes to some extent (exploring gotham, fighting goons).
    I've heard that this game was buggy at launch, right now the only bugs i've experienced are only cutscene related (the motion is weird without vertical sync on in cutscenes) and when the subtitles flicker in the cutscene, anything else seemed fine so far or it was too minimal to even care about it.
    The dialogues are obviously on the "family friendly" side, even with the kinky interactions with harley, but we have to understand the world we live in currently, how easily someone gets triggered and how easily someone get's canceled but that's besides the point, personally I enjoy the interactions so far and it feels natural.
    The traversal is my biggest complaint, I dont care about the fast travel, I dont care about red hood jumping in the air due to some lazarous pit buff, all of this it's alright to me and it's whatever but I'm a biker IRL, seeing Red hood (who is well known ever since comics) to be THE BIKER of the bat family, driving on like 60 KM/h it's just utterly dissapointing (also the bike itself looks awful, I like the futuristic touch but they could have gone with a different design and it would have been better)
    The mods are completely just whatever, they could have gone rid of the mods mechanic completely and it would have made the game better, the gear stuff with styles that's really cool and I enjoy all the options you have.
    At the end of the day, after playing it for maybe around 15 hours already, I really enjoy it, I would honestly recommend it on a sale, BUT MAYBE, in it's current state (cause it was buggy as hell at release) and being a batman fan (and especially a Red Hood fan), I could see myself dropping 60 euros for this game so yeah, Highly recommend it on a sale, it is a solid 7 and you could maybe push it to 8 or even 8.5 once you get over the tedious interface and understand how to work with it and how the combat works.

I do have a couple issues, and that's kinda on me, I expected it to be alot more similar to the Arkham games and it's just not. Like the fighting, it's not as fluid in my opinion.

      Talk about failing upwards. Why would anyone trust that studio to make superman game? Let alone a hero like flash, greenlantern or any of DC character with a complex moveset when they fumbled the bag and none of their games have been well received origins was hated initially but people have come around but this game won't get that luxury with the number of superheroes games coming out soon.
      The only studios I'd task with that task are Monolith and Rocksteady you know studios that are proven to be competent and have earned their stripes. The bag was fumbled hard with gotham knights.

It's frustrating because the game has issues on all hardware but it can at least be fixed on PC. On Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 it's really limited by the hardware and it's starting to seem like WB just doesn't care.

    I personally think you can't compare Gotham Knights with the Arkham games.

    the thing that is killing this game is fanbase and reviews if you ask me. i thought the game was amazing, But the thing that is happening is people have played a very good game/s which is the arkham series. Which i grew up playing and is top tier best superhero games, but people who have played gotham knights compare it to the arkham series. You can’t do that because it is two different games BUT if you don’t like the game then that’s completely okay. Now the review part, people are going to look at how bad the reviews are and when they see it they are going to be like, “wow this game is garbage”, and then there isn’t gonna be to be many people buying it and then we are going to have people who haven’t even touched the game to talk very harsh about it so there won’t be people buying the game. I’m NOT AT ALL saying this is a masterpiece game and there aren’t a lot of bugs/problems etc, but give it some credit.

    My opinion on why it shouldn't be compared I'd just because its the first try with thier own game in thier own franchise and its coop not single player focused. I think there are fair reasons to compare it to arkham I just don't like whenever everything is going back to arkham. I personally believe its a 7 out of 10 and my reasons for that is while I loved the story I wanted to see more struggle in the group and a longer story it was too short to hold enough character development for me I wanted to see more with the court our 5 protagonists and the mob since they arent really explored in superhero games. Then the dogshit UI I've never ever had to look for the collectibles tab for more than 10 second because and still ended up forgetting where it is sometimes.

I've never had a game that I could replay four times in a a row.
