It's starting to sound like a broken record at this point. -The hate Mayo has for the cutscene when Batman gets the new suit, is ridiculously forced and makes no sense. Batman recently got a new suit, and rescuing the hostage is the perfect time to put the new suit on because he can do the Fear Takedown in the new suit.

This is probably the dumbest take, out of all of these really dumb takes. -Mayo hates that the game makes Batman cool... dafuq? -So, the faster grapple gun is not grounded.

The Batmobile is way to Overhated for many reasons. The main reason is that it’s the FIRST time we use it in the Arkham games so Ofc it’s not gonna be perfect. Look at the combat in asylum. They could’ve had it like city but didn’t. It was the first iteration in asylum and they evolved it over the games, same with the predator sections. Y’all should judge the batmobile under the same circumstances Also he complains about the repetitive nature of the Batmobile…. Whilst ignoring how repetitive the gameplay is, you have on foot combat then predator section rinse and repeat, so why do they get a pass? If you say ‘gadgets’ then the Batmobile also gets multiple gadgets throughout the game Not to mention he complains about the suit which is worse in insomniac Spider-Man ps4, there’s a whole cutscene and characters praising the suit Which is worse Spider-Man ‘corn’ but Batman bad because the game teaches you With the grapple hook, Arkham city literally gives you an upgrade so you can do something similar in the game. Arkham knight just makes you faster because of the suit ‘don’t worry, that suit can take the Gs’ The game isn’t ‘objectively better’ city is, being worse than the best ain’t bad at all. It’s better than asylum
ya I dont really blame rocksteady for the batmobile it was a new idea for the series the gameplay was still fun but less refined compared to the stealth and combat but its still fun though I wish they were just a tad bit more creative with the batmobile missions but thats just a me thing
The thing is the Batmobile is a part of a bigger problem that knight has. Fighting a private army just doesn’t fit Batman in my opinion, and I feel like it’s another example of people making Batman a worse iron man.
I wouldn't have that much of a problem with the batmobile if it wasn't used everywhere, like if it was just for quicker travel and only a few puzzles. Also asylum is better than knight what are you smoking
Mayo: "I turned off Arkham Knight for like a week because of the Batmobile." Me: *stopped playing Arkham Asylum recently for almost two weeks because I've been going through it on hard and have been stuck on Poison Ivy*
Batman Arkham Knight is a game where Batman literally has to fight a army? A captain with thousands of men with guns, rockets,tanks,drones, helicopters, artillery you name it. Batman has never faced something like this before he's use to common thugs with weapons but not trained soldiers. So why are people surprised a lot of the gameplay is using the batmobile?
Making a story that necessitates a lot of batmobile usage doesnt negate criticism of the Batmobile. The issue isnt that he uses the batmobile, I doubt anyone actually says that, it's that he uses the batmobile as often as he does, when the controls for it are less than stellar, and batmobile gameplay just comes off as overly repetitive.

Mayo: I hate games showing a cool suit up scene for a character who wears a goddamn suit By his definition of game porn, Doom is a full feature X-Rated film
Unpopular opinion, I like the Batmobile, I like how Rocksteady introduced a Batmobile combat mechanic with it being the first of its kind in the Arkham series, it shows that Batman isn’t a god and that his tools are essential, I like the driving, the power slide (drifting) is done well and makes tight turns easy once you get the hang of it, the side thrusts help put an end to most militia chase bits quickly, and the afterburner really give reminiscent Batman: The Animated Series vibes, and the sound and visuals have really made me feel like I’m going fast in a way no other car mechanic in a game has really made me feel. Everything in this game feels both heavier and lighter in all the right ways for me. I’ll personally always prefer Knight over city, but I can totally understand why people would choose city over knight.
I’ve played this game for like over 230 hours and have about 4 different 100% saves and I don’t have the slightest problem with the Batmobile. How on earth does mayo think it’s there too much if he didn’t complete one story save?
The Batmobile isn't that bad. I often find that I want to get into it and drive around the city hunt thugs in cars. Its really good for a game not centred around racing. The tank battles are a bit worse but only really because its a lot of repetition. Its not the games fault he was on low hp at the SECOND tank fight in the entire game
when i saw his thumbnail i was like oh no he's zeroed in on the batmobile. it was just terrible i really thought he was going to in depth with it but he didnt its a shame
Asylum took me about 15 hrs bc I wanted the Riddler stuff and I was 11😭 also I believe he’s just terrible at games, if he can’t mash and blast his way through things he doesn’t enjoy it. he has to be constantly stimulated
Don’t get me wrong. It’s OK that he didn’t like the game, but he could’ve just said “it wasn’t me” and then moved on. Instead, the review comes across as someone trying to sound, smart in an argument, despite not making any real statement based in facts and then expect everyone to agree with his statement that the game is objectively bad
"The batmobile is half the game" its been years, but im pretty sure you only need the car in the drone missions and specific story missions really. The rest of traversal can be done like Arkham City...lol😂
I can kinda see where he’s coming from, for one I think that Batman as a whole is a better character when dealing with smaller enemy counts, and its why I consider Origins the better game combat wise then City, as for the Batmobile, I think the chases work well, and make sense for Batman, but the drone fights don’t fit in my opinion since it feels over the top for Batman since he always felt like a street level hero for me, and the tank has a similar to “he can beat anything with prep time” crap. For the upgrade tree, I get the bloat, because less options that are more meaningful over a lot of less meaningful options, although I don’t think this is the case here.
My dear gentleman, you have made a more measured and thought through assessment than him. And for that, despite personally having a hint of desagreement, kudos
Batman is not a street level hero. Street level is static shock, daredevil, Luke cage, etc. i can see if you said “I like Batman best when he’s street level” but even in Batman’s best iterations he’s not street level including btas. Even the books aren’t street level. The big ones are year one and Matt reeves’ movie Also the militaristic Batman falls apart if you like the dark knight trilogy. Not saying you specifically, but I guarantee a lot of the bat tank haters love the Nolan films and he’s driving a tank.
As someone who is also not a Batman fan and has only played Arkham Knight and not the other games in the series, I think I’m in a unique place to respond to Mayo’s video. It’s also worth mentioning that I beat the game 120% (yes, I even got all the Riddler trophies). Personally, I didn’t mind the Batmobile. Yes, I can see how could feel it was overused, but that’s also sort of a weird argument to me. It’s the Batmobile! One of Batman’s most iconic tools. If they had just made it a simple car to drive around in, that would’ve been lame. Yeah, the tank combat could have been better, but it wasn’t bad. His complaints about the combat and “too much crap on screen” don’t resonate with me. I’m not even all that good at this game and it wasn’t too much for me. I’m actually replaying it again because I failed to fully understand all the complexities of the combat the first time. The upgrade system was fine. It only didn’t make sense to me because I was still trying to understand the combat at a basic level and didn’t know what would be the most useful. That’s a me problem though. The “Batman Porn” comment is just absurd. I don’t understand how that one cutscene invoked such a negative reaction from him. Like, he gets so worked up about it that I was waiting for him to say something borderline homophobic. As this is a superhero game a “suit up” scene is expected, and this one comes with actual gameplay upgrades. It did make me feel badass, which I would say is good…I’m playing as one of the most iconic superheroes, right? I ought to feel badass. Sorry for the wall of text. But I definitely agree that UnderTheMayo just didn’t give the game a shot.
Hey i struggle playing with batman games and i still love them more. I think this guy has skill issue and he thinks that the scene with batman changing to a better armor is corn like what!?!!?!!!!!??????
Wow the complaints this man made was pretty ridiculous, like hes complaining about how you have to use the batmobile to fight fire fly makes no sence, it makes semce as ti why batman used it, but I will say I think we got a mix of chasing in ghe batmobile and using the grapple hook on fire flh leg and flying with him, just like it was in orgins, that would be awsome. Oh and he had the audacity to make a review of the game and didnt even finish it 😂
it’s almost like the other guy doesn’t understand it’s the next installment of a series, its gon be more demanding, more advanced, n have less hints, js seems like a skill issue 🤷🏽
Exactly. For me, Arkham knight was my first contact with the series. I played on hard and later knightfall difficulty. No trouble whatsoever. I do hate this argument, but I think it's a skill issue for him
Catwoman: (sarcastically) what’s mayo’s problem this time? Batman: *Fanatic Narcissism, Egocentrism, and Megalomania, crossed with Severe Obsessive Compulsion.* Catwoman: (sarcastically) thanks. Batman: *don’t mention it.* (disappears in batman)
14:29 if you just include the campaign, there are more batmobile sequences then both predator and combat sections. Yes total, meaning the whole game, it is not overused, but campaign wise yes. That being said, I kinda enjoy the tank battles, but wish they were more polished 16:48 okay, the guy you're arguing against is an absolute moron. YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THE VR CHALLENGES
The fact he sounds similar to Syntheticman, a TH-camr infamous for his points, "reviews", thoughts? Really shows... Just from hearing him I was like: "Wait a minute, is that him?"
The tanks in Arkham Knight were AI controlled which is why you use lethal force on them. There were exactly two tanks that had people in them. The cloud burst tank and the one Slade was in. Edit: another reason why the people controlling the tanks might not have noticed anything around the tanks is due to severe brain damage from training for the events in the story
There were a few things that this game didn’t do that it should have, but as for what it DID do, it did well done…..which is a very simple way of saying I wish it let you play as Robin, Catwoman and Nightwing more, I wish it still had the Martial Artist enemy types from Origins, and wish it had better boss battles…..the worst parts of the game are things it don’t have, but the things it does have are great, including the Batmobile
I don't get why people hate the Batmobile it's fun as hell people are just being crybabies. But maybe collecting all those Riddler trophies has finally made me go insane. Who knows?
I feel like it has more to do with pacing. I love the batmobile, but it feels like the front loaded the game with it a bit and tht could be a turn off for some people. A better approach may have been to space out it's use in story missions a bit more so it felt less like yhe devs were pushing it on us and more like a more organic escalation of the mrasures Batman needed to take in order to meet a growing threat.
Not once have I ever thought “I hate the Batmobile segments” like what are people smoking? THAT SHIT IS RAW. GET GUD BRO I LOVE THE TANK FIGHTS THOSE BE SOME OF THE ADRENALINE MOMENTS
Yeah this under the mayo guy might actually have the worst Arkham opinions of all time… your title was indeed not clickbait, I am so sorry you had to watch this
Jesus christ. I had anticipated that this mayo fellas video was gonna be bad, but christ, i didnt expect the video to be nuclear levels of awful. Thanks for taking the time to point out the bullshit
I find it hilarious that he criticizes the Batman suit up scene for "bring self-indulgent" while ignoring the fact that Doomguy from Doom Eternal has just, if not more, self indulgent scenes of him gearing up. But then again, he simps for Doom Eternal so it's to be expected. Side note, I'm not criticizing Doom Eternal, it's a really fun game, I'm saying that Under the Mayo is a hypocrite. Final note: if you think his Batman Arkham Knight videos are bad, then you haven't seen his God of War Ragnarok videos.
as a long time batman fan I can say the person you're covering doesn't even give a darn about Batman or the games in general AND literally any argument they've made are null and void as Arkham Knight in the Arkham franchise fan base has been held to high regards like literally Arkham Knight is my favorite Arkham game in the entire franchise next to City
First, about Arkham asylum, I finished it in 5 hours. Arkham asylum AND CITY can easily be finished in one IRL night (minus the riddler stuff) I should know. I have done this. Now, the criticisms of Arkham Knight... The batmobile is rather well introduced since it's the first time we can use it actively in an Arkham game. Anyone complaining about it like this guy is probably CONSTANTLY AND ONLY USED THE BATMOBILE EVERY CHANCE HE GOT! Like yeah, the batmobile has problems. Here's PROPER criticisms on the batmobile. It gets clunkier the faster it gets and combat wise, the tank mode is rather lacking and the turret is highly inconsistent when hitting the weak points on remote controlled tanks. HOWEVER I found the batmobile really likeable and entertaining when you combine the modes. When driving, instead of hitting brake to turn, enter tank mode and spin the camera in the direction you want to go then return to car mode. In tank mode, when enemies there are loads of projectiles and you doubt you can avoid them all, switch to car mode and boost away before switching back to tank mode. Next, the actual combat... actually, no. You are saying everything I would say. So thank you for everything you said about my favourite Arkham game. Edit: HE REVIEWS GAMES EVEN IF HE DOESNT FINISH THEM?! I played Redfall. I hated it but wanted to finish it to give an honest review.
Ima actually exasplain my complaints w9th the batmobile unlike under the mayo the veicle combat is fun, but after a while it gets kinda boring, and the batmobile stealth sections are pretty repetitive, and having go sneak around and having to shooy the exsposed parts of the tanks thwn runing away constantly isnt the funnest, oh and those batmobile boss fights isnt tjat great, you have to constantly shoot exsposed parts and runing way over and over, amd the riddler races are so annoying, the driving its self ia great, but the races and challenges arent the funnest, oh and riddler constantly yapping in your ear is so annoying 😂 but the batmobile dosent take tjat much of the game, its just your mind exsagerating things.
I going to honest the first time I play knight I didn’t enjoy as much as the other 3 games , it was only my second play through I truly enjoyed and loved knight Edit I never hated knight I just didn’t enjoy it as much as the others
The arkam series is awesome and my favorite is arkam night so and I did everything to get the full experience and I can tell this guy rating the game barely played it
0:14 even if you take no pleasure in writing or doing something, it may need to be done for different reasons, like addressing blatantly false allegations or saying goodbye to something you don’t want to
Mayo always had bad takes, after watching 3 of videos I just stop and watch someone else retrospective/critique on games who isn't some disingenuous sad man
I still truly do not understand all the hate surrounding the Batmobile parts of the game, it's really not the most awful thing in the world, those parts of the game can be fun if you just have fun with it! Sure the Riddler races can get annoying and even frustrating at times but frustrating parts come with every game. Are there a lot of tank fighting sections? Yes but I think taking on an entire army of tanks makes me feel badass especially since you do it all by yourself. I may be in the minority here but I really don't think the Batmobile was as terrible as everyone says it is, there are other games out there with far worse vehicle mechanics. Regardless Arkham Knight is a fun game and this doods review of it is awful.
I've always respected under the Mayo's opinions on certain game whether I disagree or not I always like how passionate and how articulate he is about certain games but holy shit This has to be the worst video he's done in quite a while because he didn't go into detail about anything or elaborate on why certain aspects of the game is bad (hell even I can do it with my eyes closed) And more importantly it was very clear he wanted nothing to do with the Arkham series cuz he didn't do his homework which I think if you're going to talk about a franchise you got to do some sort of homework because that Batman porn comment made absolutely no sense especially if we going to compare it to Doom which has a lot of silly moments.
Really the only main thing I can fully agree with Arkham Knight is when I played Arkham Knight on PC it ran like s*** when I play Arkham Origins on PC on launch day it ran very well and I only had the cape graphic glitch that everyone complains about but Arkham Origins runs very well on computer you guys are forgetting 2013 the Xbox 360 and PS3 were on their last leg the fact that Arkham Origins was on those consoles is a miracle to begin with we all know how bad Skyrim ran on PS3 back in 2011 he really think Arkham Origins was going to run much better than Arkham City or Skyrim and if you go back and play Arkham City on a PS3 or 360 and actual PS3 or 360 you'll see how bad that game it had 30 FPS and would go lower sometimes so you guys kissing Arkham City's ass haven't gone back and actually played the game on the OG consoles it was released on I'm sorry but Arkham Knight takes too long to get established and to get me into the game the whole tank b******* with the Batmobile takes too much time having to do stupid races with Riddler with the Batmobile takes too much time get me into the game like Arkham Origins does like Arkham City does like Arkham Asylum does I'm not playing a Batman game to play a f****** Batman simulator save that for VR titles
As someone who has beaten the game and absolutely hated the batmobile i can understand where he came from it's not about the literall amount of game play it's about what it feels like to the player i absolutely dreaded every time they forced you to use the batmobile and to me it's by far the worst game in the series including origin
For me the Batmobile wasn’t a dealbreaker. It was certainly the lowest point of the gameplay but then again I thought the gameplay for Batman was the best it had been For me the Batmobile was legitimately good at times, passable or slightly annoying for the most part, and fucking abysmal on a few rare occasions….
Less than 25% does unironically sound like a lot tho lol. If I dislike less than 25% of a game, that might genuinely still feel like a lot, and also too much for me to be able to still enjoy the game. I mean if I literally feel bothered by 1/5 of a game that is supposed to be fun that is not a good thing. I still like the game, but it is an issue. It does feel like half the game, and that is the problem, it is supposed to make me feel good and entertained. If with only less than 25% of usage it feels like using the batmobile half the game that is not a good sign. Just goes to show you even moreso how bad it feels to play the batmobile for this amount. It is not bad, but it is not that good and engaging. It would be good and enjoyable for a considerably reduced amount of playtime. Maybe around 5% of the game would genuinely feel good, fresh, and fun.
@@HeartOne-d5e I definitely see where you are coming from however the over exaggeration this guy made towards the Batmobile was excessive Especially now that I’ve beaten Arkham Knight I actually find the Batmobile to be very interesting of a concept There are moments I love it, moments I tolerate it, and moments where I ABSOLUTELY Hate it 😅 so for me at least, sure it could’ve been excecuted better, but it wasn’t a dealbreaker for me Especially when playing as Batman was the best of the 4 games for me
@@TheGamingRift11 yes, hes does exaggerate. The batmobile isn't a dealbraker. The game is amazing. The batmobile is just one of the reasons Arkham Knight is my leadt favourite Batman game out of the series. Bats feeling more powerful makes sense of course, but it almost feels too easy for me. Sure the other games weren't difficult, but it felt like they had more weight to the combat somehow. Like it was a bigger deal when you got hit, like it was easier to get hit, and in stealth it was a bigger deal to get caught which makes it feel more rewarding to play extra good during stealth. The stealth sections you also didnt have as man floorgates to escape in, and you also weren't as fast at moving jnder them. On top of that you didnt have these quick time instant take out that make something already incredibly easy even easier. Its not about the old jnes being hard just more engaging and risky if youmade a mistake.
Aight video, you're terrible at the game tho. Also saying that it's just a video game is not an argument. Also as much as I disagree with underthemayo's points, because they are awful. He's not gonna see your video
One of his most stupid complaints about AK is when he complains about Batman's suit up scene. Batman is supposed to be a badass, and he's just obtained a new suit with new gadgets so of course they're going to show it off. Not to mention showing off the awesome looking graphics as well. Seriously wtf was up with this stupid complaint?
You're wrong on one thing, you can review a game if you didn't finish it. You can't completely review the story, but you can do it with the other things

Unpopular opinion, I like the Batmobile, I like how Rocksteady introduced a Batmobile combat mechanic with it being the first of its kind in the Arkham series, it shows that Batman isn’t a god and that his tools are essential, I like the driving, the power slide (drifting) is done well and makes tight turns easy once you get the hang of it, the side thrusts help put an end to most militia chase bits quickly, and the afterburner really give reminiscent Batman: The Animated Series vibes, and the sound and visuals have really made me feel like I’m going fast in a way no other car mechanic in a game has really made me feel. Everything in this game feels both heavier and lighter in all the right ways for me. I’ll personally always prefer Knight over city, but I can totally understand why people would choose city over knight.
I’ve played this game for like over 230 hours and have about 4 different 100% saves and I don’t have the slightest problem with the Batmobile. How on earth does mayo think it’s there too much if he didn’t complete one story save?
The Batmobile isn't that bad. I often find that I want to get into it and drive around the city hunt thugs in cars. Its really good for a game not centred around racing. The tank battles are a bit worse but only really because its a lot of repetition. Its not the games fault he was on low hp at the SECOND tank fight in the entire game
The fact that he missed Origins before playing Knight says so much.
when i saw his thumbnail i was like oh no he's zeroed in on the batmobile. it was just terrible i really thought he was going to in depth with it but he didnt its a shame
I swear after doom eternal came out mayo has had some some the worst, trashest, hotdog water ass takes i ever seen in my life
Came to rage at my monitor at dogwater takes, stayed for your engaging personality. Good sir you have earned a subscription
Make yourself at home and have a cuppa tea
Asylum took me about 15 hrs bc I wanted the Riddler stuff and I was 11😭
also I believe he’s just terrible at games, if he can’t mash and blast his way through things he doesn’t enjoy it. he has to be constantly stimulated
Don’t get me wrong. It’s OK that he didn’t like the game, but he could’ve just said “it wasn’t me” and then moved on. Instead, the review comes across as someone trying to sound, smart in an argument, despite not making any real statement based in facts and then expect everyone to agree with his statement that the game is objectively bad
"The batmobile is half the game" its been years, but im pretty sure you only need the car in the drone missions and specific story missions really. The rest of traversal can be done like Arkham City...lol😂
Only four of Arkham Knight's 14 (18 if we include Season of Infamy) side missions require the Batmobile in a major way.
@@tritonk1759 it's less than a quarter of the runtime bro
@@Lyoko42o I'm agreeing with you dude...
@@tritonk1759 ahh my bad
I can kinda see where he’s coming from, for one I think that Batman as a whole is a better character when dealing with smaller enemy counts, and its why I consider Origins the better game combat wise then City, as for the Batmobile, I think the chases work well, and make sense for Batman, but the drone fights don’t fit in my opinion since it feels over the top for Batman since he always felt like a street level hero for me, and the tank has a similar to “he can beat anything with prep time” crap. For the upgrade tree, I get the bloat, because less options that are more meaningful over a lot of less meaningful options, although I don’t think this is the case here.
My dear gentleman, you have made a more measured and thought through assessment than him. And for that, despite personally having a hint of desagreement, kudos
Batman is not a street level hero. Street level is static shock, daredevil, Luke cage, etc. i can see if you said “I like Batman best when he’s street level” but even in Batman’s best iterations he’s not street level including btas. Even the books aren’t street level. The big ones are year one and Matt reeves’ movie
Also the militaristic Batman falls apart if you like the dark knight trilogy. Not saying you specifically, but I guarantee a lot of the bat tank haters love the Nolan films and he’s driving a tank.
15:48 This sounds crazy out of context 😂.
It sounds crazy period
As someone who is also not a Batman fan and has only played Arkham Knight and not the other games in the series, I think I’m in a unique place to respond to Mayo’s video. It’s also worth mentioning that I beat the game 120% (yes, I even got all the Riddler trophies).
Personally, I didn’t mind the Batmobile. Yes, I can see how could feel it was overused, but that’s also sort of a weird argument to me. It’s the Batmobile! One of Batman’s most iconic tools. If they had just made it a simple car to drive around in, that would’ve been lame. Yeah, the tank combat could have been better, but it wasn’t bad.
His complaints about the combat and “too much crap on screen” don’t resonate with me. I’m not even all that good at this game and it wasn’t too much for me. I’m actually replaying it again because I failed to fully understand all the complexities of the combat the first time.
The upgrade system was fine. It only didn’t make sense to me because I was still trying to understand the combat at a basic level and didn’t know what would be the most useful. That’s a me problem though.
The “Batman Porn” comment is just absurd. I don’t understand how that one cutscene invoked such a negative reaction from him. Like, he gets so worked up about it that I was waiting for him to say something borderline homophobic. As this is a superhero game a “suit up” scene is expected, and this one comes with actual gameplay upgrades. It did make me feel badass, which I would say is good…I’m playing as one of the most iconic superheroes, right? I ought to feel badass.
Sorry for the wall of text. But I definitely agree that UnderTheMayo just didn’t give the game a shot.
Hey i struggle playing with batman games and i still love them more. I think this guy has skill issue and he thinks that the scene with batman changing to a better armor is corn like what!?!!?!!!!!??????
remember that mayo has voting rights
Wow the complaints this man made was pretty ridiculous, like hes complaining about how you have to use the batmobile to fight fire fly makes no sence, it makes semce as ti why batman used it, but I will say I think we got a mix of chasing in ghe batmobile and using the grapple hook on fire flh leg and flying with him, just like it was in orgins, that would be awsome. Oh and he had the audacity to make a review of the game and didnt even finish it 😂
it’s almost like the other guy doesn’t understand it’s the next installment of a series, its gon be more demanding, more advanced, n have less hints, js seems like a skill issue 🤷🏽
Exactly. For me, Arkham knight was my first contact with the series. I played on hard and later knightfall difficulty. No trouble whatsoever. I do hate this argument, but I think it's a skill issue for him
To this day, I still can't understand why people hate the Batmobile. Why people hate the driving so much? ...kids these days
Catwoman: (sarcastically) what’s mayo’s problem this time?
Batman: *Fanatic Narcissism, Egocentrism, and Megalomania, crossed with Severe Obsessive Compulsion.*
Catwoman: (sarcastically) thanks.
Batman: *don’t mention it.* (disappears in batman)
This dude always gave "anti-youtuber" so his incendiary comments can gain engagement. No such thing as "bad publicity"
29:50 he aint having any little robbers no more
14:29 if you just include the campaign, there are more batmobile sequences then both predator and combat sections. Yes total, meaning the whole game, it is not overused, but campaign wise yes. That being said, I kinda enjoy the tank battles, but wish they were more polished
16:48 okay, the guy you're arguing against is an absolute moron. YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THE VR CHALLENGES
The fact he sounds similar to Syntheticman, a TH-camr infamous for his points, "reviews", thoughts? Really shows...
Just from hearing him I was like: "Wait a minute, is that him?"
Sadly no. Although the differences are minuscule
@@TheGamingRift11 I can't get it out of my head, but yeah 😂.
The tanks in Arkham Knight were AI controlled which is why you use lethal force on them. There were exactly two tanks that had people in them. The cloud burst tank and the one Slade was in.
Edit: another reason why the people controlling the tanks might not have noticed anything around the tanks is due to severe brain damage from training for the events in the story
There were a few things that this game didn’t do that it should have, but as for what it DID do, it did well done…..which is a very simple way of saying I wish it let you play as Robin, Catwoman and Nightwing more, I wish it still had the Martial Artist enemy types from Origins, and wish it had better boss battles…..the worst parts of the game are things it don’t have, but the things it does have are great, including the Batmobile
This might be the most calm response video I've ever seen.
Especially to this video.
@@bluebellsforever it takes a lot to piss me off 😅
I don't get why people hate the Batmobile it's fun as hell people are just being crybabies. But maybe collecting all those Riddler trophies has finally made me go insane. Who knows?
I feel like it has more to do with pacing. I love the batmobile, but it feels like the front loaded the game with it a bit and tht could be a turn off for some people.
A better approach may have been to space out it's use in story missions a bit more so it felt less like yhe devs were pushing it on us and more like a more organic escalation of the mrasures Batman needed to take in order to meet a growing threat.
How is not caring for the batmobile being a crybaby, it just wasn't too fun from what I remember but I don't hate it
We don't like bad games, we like Batgames
This man really needs to play Yakuza 0. Because he really doesn't understand Ludonarrative dissonance.
Glad you could also take a piece of the action
Not once have I ever thought “I hate the Batmobile segments” like what are people smoking? THAT SHIT IS RAW. GET GUD BRO I LOVE THE TANK FIGHTS THOSE BE SOME OF THE ADRENALINE MOMENTS
Damn now another person is getting on him! I know he has massive regrets making it
Yeah this under the mayo guy might actually have the worst Arkham opinions of all time… your title was indeed not clickbait, I am so sorry you had to watch this
Jesus christ. I had anticipated that this mayo fellas video was gonna be bad, but christ, i didnt expect the video to be nuclear levels of awful. Thanks for taking the time to point out the bullshit
What Do You Guys Think
I think people who don’t think, teach people how not to think.
I think mayos vid was ridiculous 😂
I find it hilarious that he criticizes the Batman suit up scene for "bring self-indulgent" while ignoring the fact that Doomguy from Doom Eternal has just, if not more, self indulgent scenes of him gearing up. But then again, he simps for Doom Eternal so it's to be expected. Side note, I'm not criticizing Doom Eternal, it's a really fun game, I'm saying that Under the Mayo is a hypocrite. Final note: if you think his Batman Arkham Knight videos are bad, then you haven't seen his God of War Ragnarok videos.
Mayo has always been spitting hot garbage takes. Glad that you decided to throw your hat in the ring to show how much of a clown he is.
I believe mayo is the guy who gets paid to play mobile games in the ads
I don’t get the hate for the Batmobile. I think it’s really cool. I loved smashing through the city in *A TANK*
Because it’s tedious and drives like the halo warthog which means horribly
To qoute mayo
I'm fucking shocked I had no idea his review on knight could be this bad
I played asylum, enjoyed, didn't get city, and origin, and got knight with my ps4, and enjoyed knight too.
I got city with the return to collection
as a long time batman fan I can say the person you're covering doesn't even give a darn about Batman or the games in general AND literally any argument they've made are null and void as Arkham Knight in the Arkham franchise fan base has been held to high regards like literally Arkham Knight is my favorite Arkham game in the entire franchise next to City
Dude, I know it's wildly off topic. But your voice sounds identical to Monty Zander.
BTW, excellent work on calling out bs on mayo's videos
@@TheRedIskander idk if that’s a compliment or not 😁but thanks
Omg i remember watching him for his doom strategies, but god lord, he's mad at batman for being batman
Clearly he meant City was one of his favorite games he played that year
And it still makes 0 sense since Knight has mostly better gameplay
First, about Arkham asylum, I finished it in 5 hours. Arkham asylum AND CITY can easily be finished in one IRL night (minus the riddler stuff) I should know. I have done this. Now, the criticisms of Arkham Knight... The batmobile is rather well introduced since it's the first time we can use it actively in an Arkham game. Anyone complaining about it like this guy is probably CONSTANTLY AND ONLY USED THE BATMOBILE EVERY CHANCE HE GOT! Like yeah, the batmobile has problems.
Here's PROPER criticisms on the batmobile. It gets clunkier the faster it gets and combat wise, the tank mode is rather lacking and the turret is highly inconsistent when hitting the weak points on remote controlled tanks. HOWEVER I found the batmobile really likeable and entertaining when you combine the modes. When driving, instead of hitting brake to turn, enter tank mode and spin the camera in the direction you want to go then return to car mode. In tank mode, when enemies there are loads of projectiles and you doubt you can avoid them all, switch to car mode and boost away before switching back to tank mode.
Next, the actual combat... actually, no. You are saying everything I would say. So thank you for everything you said about my favourite Arkham game.
Edit: HE REVIEWS GAMES EVEN IF HE DOESNT FINISH THEM?! I played Redfall. I hated it but wanted to finish it to give an honest review.
Why do people dislike the Batmobile sections, apart from the deathstroke boss fight I liked all the sections with it in
Ima actually exasplain my complaints w9th the batmobile unlike under the mayo the veicle combat is fun, but after a while it gets kinda boring, and the batmobile stealth sections are pretty repetitive, and having go sneak around and having to shooy the exsposed parts of the tanks thwn runing away constantly isnt the funnest, oh and those batmobile boss fights isnt tjat great, you have to constantly shoot exsposed parts and runing way over and over, amd the riddler races are so annoying, the driving its self ia great, but the races and challenges arent the funnest, oh and riddler constantly yapping in your ear is so annoying 😂 but the batmobile dosent take tjat much of the game, its just your mind exsagerating things.
Never understood the hate for the Batmobile
Me neither. I understand it gets repetitive but it could’ve been worse, it could’ve handled quite poorly.
Origins😢also why the epic music
I heard it and it sounded like Batman or to me at least 😇
@@TheGamingRift11 just thought it was funny for the background of a debunking vid
Cant wait for rift to play knight, its gonna be fun.
I going to honest the first time I play knight I didn’t enjoy as much as the other 3 games , it was only my second play through I truly enjoyed and loved knight
Edit I never hated knight I just didn’t enjoy it as much as the others
27:42 also if they didn't the player would die a cheap death they can do nothing about. Combat simply wouldn't be fun if they all rushed you at once.
Me personally loved the Batmobile
This reminds me of David Jaffe and Metroid: Dread.
I know the batman Arkham knight, has a different tune to it then perious others batman game's and the side missions are Awesome
I have geniuenly no idea why people are complaining about batmobile becase I love them, both driving and combat
If you didn't finish the game, and then make a review on it, that just makes it invalid
Exactly. Dude tried to review a 10 hour game when he barely got to halfway 😂
I love the video man coming him from school to watch this video was amazing never played any batman Arkham games but what mayo said was bs 😂 💀
The arkam series is awesome and my favorite is arkam night so and I did everything to get the full experience and I can tell this guy rating the game barely played it
0:14 even if you take no pleasure in writing or doing something, it may need to be done for different reasons, like addressing blatantly false allegations or saying goodbye to something you don’t want to
In those contexts it would be appropriate.
A game review? Not so much
Mayo always had bad takes, after watching 3 of videos I just stop and watch someone else retrospective/critique on games who isn't some disingenuous sad man
I still truly do not understand all the hate surrounding the Batmobile parts of the game, it's really not the most awful thing in the world, those parts of the game can be fun if you just have fun with it! Sure the Riddler races can get annoying and even frustrating at times but frustrating parts come with every game. Are there a lot of tank fighting sections? Yes but I think taking on an entire army of tanks makes me feel badass especially since you do it all by yourself. I may be in the minority here but I really don't think the Batmobile was as terrible as everyone says it is, there are other games out there with far worse vehicle mechanics. Regardless Arkham Knight is a fun game and this doods review of it is awful.
I've always respected under the Mayo's opinions on certain game whether I disagree or not I always like how passionate and how articulate he is about certain games but holy shit This has to be the worst video he's done in quite a while because he didn't go into detail about anything or elaborate on why certain aspects of the game is bad (hell even I can do it with my eyes closed) And more importantly it was very clear he wanted nothing to do with the Arkham series cuz he didn't do his homework which I think if you're going to talk about a franchise you got to do some sort of homework because that Batman porn comment made absolutely no sense especially if we going to compare it to Doom which has a lot of silly moments.
Really the only main thing I can fully agree with Arkham Knight is when I played Arkham Knight on PC it ran like s*** when I play Arkham Origins on PC on launch day it ran very well and I only had the cape graphic glitch that everyone complains about but Arkham Origins runs very well on computer you guys are forgetting 2013 the Xbox 360 and PS3 were on their last leg the fact that Arkham Origins was on those consoles is a miracle to begin with we all know how bad Skyrim ran on PS3 back in 2011 he really think Arkham Origins was going to run much better than Arkham City or Skyrim and if you go back and play Arkham City on a PS3 or 360 and actual PS3 or 360 you'll see how bad that game it had 30 FPS and would go lower sometimes so you guys kissing Arkham City's ass haven't gone back and actually played the game on the OG consoles it was released on I'm sorry but Arkham Knight takes too long to get established and to get me into the game the whole tank b******* with the Batmobile takes too much time having to do stupid races with Riddler with the Batmobile takes too much time get me into the game like Arkham Origins does like Arkham City does like Arkham Asylum does I'm not playing a Batman game to play a f****** Batman simulator save that for VR titles
Another W vid from one of the goats of youtube.
As someone who has beaten the game and absolutely hated the batmobile i can understand where he came from it's not about the literall amount of game play it's about what it feels like to the player i absolutely dreaded every time they forced you to use the batmobile and to me it's by far the worst game in the series including origin
For me the Batmobile wasn’t a dealbreaker. It was certainly the lowest point of the gameplay but then again I thought the gameplay for Batman was the best it had been
For me the Batmobile was legitimately good at times, passable or slightly annoying for the most part, and fucking abysmal on a few rare occasions….
Less than 25% does unironically sound like a lot tho lol. If I dislike less than 25% of a game, that might genuinely still feel like a lot, and also too much for me to be able to still enjoy the game. I mean if I literally feel bothered by 1/5 of a game that is supposed to be fun that is not a good thing. I still like the game, but it is an issue. It does feel like half the game, and that is the problem, it is supposed to make me feel good and entertained. If with only less than 25% of usage it feels like using the batmobile half the game that is not a good sign. Just goes to show you even moreso how bad it feels to play the batmobile for this amount. It is not bad, but it is not that good and engaging. It would be good and enjoyable for a considerably reduced amount of playtime. Maybe around 5% of the game would genuinely feel good, fresh, and fun.
@@HeartOne-d5e I definitely see where you are coming from however the over exaggeration this guy made towards the Batmobile was excessive
Especially now that I’ve beaten Arkham Knight I actually find the Batmobile to be very interesting of a concept
There are moments I love it, moments I tolerate it, and moments where I ABSOLUTELY Hate it 😅 so for me at least, sure it could’ve been excecuted better, but it wasn’t a dealbreaker for me
Especially when playing as Batman was the best of the 4 games for me
@@TheGamingRift11 yes, hes does exaggerate.
The batmobile isn't a dealbraker. The game is amazing. The batmobile is just one of the reasons Arkham Knight is my leadt favourite Batman game out of the series. Bats feeling more powerful makes sense of course, but it almost feels too easy for me.
Sure the other games weren't difficult, but it felt like they had more weight to the combat somehow. Like it was a bigger deal when you got hit, like it was easier to get hit, and in stealth it was a bigger deal to get caught which makes it feel more rewarding to play extra good during stealth. The stealth sections you also didnt have as man floorgates to escape in, and you also weren't as fast at moving jnder them. On top of that you didnt have these quick time instant take out that make something already incredibly easy even easier.
Its not about the old jnes being hard just more engaging and risky if youmade a mistake.
Aight video, you're terrible at the game tho. Also saying that it's just a video game is not an argument. Also as much as I disagree with underthemayo's points, because they are awful. He's not gonna see your video
Me being “terrible” at the game doesn’t make my counterpoints wrong 🤷♂️
@@TheGamingRift11 I didn't say you were wrong. But you did bring up skill issue
What proof do you have of him being terrible at the game ? And "he's not gonna see your video" ok, soooo ?
@@ZrvZaza yes and me being not that great at the games is relevant, how? 🤔
@@TheGamingRift11 You shouldn't be able to criticize his skill when you're as bad
One of his most stupid complaints about AK is when he complains about Batman's suit up scene. Batman is supposed to be a badass, and he's just obtained a new suit with new gadgets so of course they're going to show it off. Not to mention showing off the awesome looking graphics as well. Seriously wtf was up with this stupid complaint?
It sounds like he's projecting with the Batman part. Literally nobody was thinking the outlandish stuff he was talking about but him
You're wrong on one thing, you can review a game if you didn't finish it. You can't completely review the story, but you can do it with the other things
That simply isn’t true if you set out to create high quality reviews
@TheGamingRift11 agreed it is like reviewing a book but not finishing the book. What is the point of reviewing if you barely get halfway into it.
