Batkek is the final boss and he's written as an amalgamation of Beetlejuice and Patrick Bateman
I will buy this because I somehow trust TT games more with the Arkham formula than Rocksteady itself, which is crazy.
>>150362273????it's live-action movie-centric, why would he be involved in any capacity other than a costume
>>150362273KINO
>>150362273The only good Lego game was the original Batman title....but I will buy your game cuz' Lego Arkham[/spoiler[
>>150362663It's an amalgamation of every film universe, so finding out it literally IS a mish mash of multiple worlds isn't really surprising.
>>150362748That's the part I hate. It's a game for normalfag movie only man children redditors over kids. Most of these movies aren't even appropriate for them. The Nolan movies MAYBE but even the actual Burton stuff is PG-13 by today's standards. There's no comic book influence either beyond arbitrary pre-order bonus costumes. At least throw in the cartoons kids could watch instead.
>>150362815>Most of these movies aren't even appropriate for them.That part isn't so bad. They usually have a lot of fun playing around with the contrast between the source material and the target audience. Everything else is spot on, though. It reeks of mandates rather than genuine love for the franchise like the other Lego Batman games.
>>150362815The original title was an adaptation of the Burton/Schumacher stuff with some B:TAS and Adam West thrown in.
>>150362728Wrong
the lego batman games aren't badat least the first 2, I never played the others
>>150362863the original game had some surprisingly deep cuts though.
>>150362859I mean the tonal dissonance works for movies like Jurassic Park, TLoTR, & Harry Potter because they were still appropriate enough for kids to begin with. They just obviously toned down the serious tones for comedic effect. The Batman movies not so much.I'd be fine with taking inspiration from as much Batman material in general but no corporate amalgamations full of things like black Gordon & Catwoman. Hell I'm offended on just having The Batman Who LOLs in the game if OP isn't just pulling things out his ass. No comic material is bad but bad comic material is worse.>>150362863They were still largely original visually.
>>150362815As if kids don't watch these movies too anyways, they sure more than reading comics at least.
>>150362942Every Lego game has been incredibly cavalier about adapting onscreen deaths.
>>150363202>>150363302It's not the deaths it's the actual sexual content & reference that are bad. But also only The Batman is a good representation of Batman's no kill rule. Burton & Nolan ignored it.
>>150362273kino if true, ironically the Metal shit might be best fitted in a Lego game, I know the zoomer crowd is already aware of Batkek but they will score even more points if the other Dark Knights and Barbatos are in there too>>150362663 the story is a mix of what happened in the movies/comics/games>>150362815>That's the part I hate. It's a game for normalfag movienot really, the Lego Batman games are big to be enough to be considered like a sub-franchise, they have their own audiences since foreveralso, kids that started playing the first game then might have been exposed to more comic book inspirations in the games than any other moviefag today
Batman 1989 if it was good
>>150362935As unlockables, not in the actual story.
>>150362273>he's written as an amalgamation of Beetlejuice and Patrick BatemanI can't even begin to wrap my head around this.
>>150362273>BatkekWho Batkek?
I am the Batkek
>>150363448>instead of just restructuring the world with reality warper powers, we see the Batman who laughs literally taking apart and rebuilding Gotham city
>>150362815At the very least, we'll finally get the live-action Batman WB has been too candyass to give us, one with all the stronger parts of the actual movies.

>>150364779UUUU
>>150364779weird because this doesn't even exist in legohe's just a minifig irl
>>150364779
>>150362273

>>150366458
>>150362663>it's live-action movie-centricI wanna know where that was confirmed or if you took this information out of your ass.
>>150362663>>150368379it looks to me to be a weird mix of the movies and the animated series>The Batman 2022 batmobile>Heath Lego Joker>Nolan-themed Alfred, Jim and origin story>Batman 1989 references and music>1989 Penguin?>2022 Catwoman>Nolan Bane>Comic/Arkham game themed Gotham city.
>>150368480Nah it's live action movies + some famous stories like under the red hood (probably the animated ones). Their take on Batman TAS was the first game.
>>150367695fuckin got snickerin>>150368480Sounds like a winning combination to me desu
>>150368833that was because the original lego line was just TASalthough weirdly they also made sets for the dark knight so its the tumbler with mark hamils joker included
>>150368833Why not just use the famous stories that the movies used (Year One, Long Halloween, Knightfall, etc.)?
>>150365651>weird because this doesn't even exist in legofar from the first time that's happened in these licensed LEGO games
>>150365651Clayface still doesn’t have a minifig after all this time. The recent Arkham Asylum set even references him but he’s not present.
>>150368912Adapting the long halloween in a lego game sounds impossible.
>>150362815It amazes me just how often /co/-fags forget what being a kid was actually like.Not only did most kids in the 2000s watch the Nolan trilogy but if your dad didn't show you at least one R-Rated 80s blockbuster as a rite of passage by the time you were 11 it was proof he didn't love you.
>>150368969and killer mothand mad hatterand hush
>>150368912Imagine you and a buddy as Bruce and Jean-Paul ganging up on a bigfig Bane. And just as Bane is about to pull The Bat Breaker, that's when JP sneaks him from behind in quicktime.
>>150368480>>2022 Catwomanwhatever man
>>150369053That's my fuckin hero...
Egghead got a lego minifigure before he returned to films, games or cartoons
>>150369101Pretty sure that was for The Lego Movie.
>>150369148the lego batman moviebut that doesn't count
I hope this game results in new Batman lego sets to consoom. Though a new Arkham game already is hype enougj.
>>150369161>new Batman lego sets to consoom.Lego just shits out overpriced collectors pieces now. They won't make kino like this anymore.
>>150369053Killer Moth has a few. Mad Hatter is weird though, he wasn't even in The Lego Batman movie despite being far more popular than guys like Clock King. Maybe there's a rights issue with him?
>>150368379other than every trailer adapting scenes from the movies like the interrogation scene from tdk and the penguin car scene from the 2022 batman movie? or the fact that the villains have been consistently seen in live-action costumes? i don't doubt they'll have SOME comic elements, but it's clearly supposed to be mostly about the movies
>>150369930From the interviews it's meant to draw inspiration of a bit of everything.
>>150369877Mad Hatter should be in public domain, I figure if anything it’s an issue with Disney, if they ever do Alice in Wonderland they don’t won’t the association.
>>150369930It's the first trailer, of course they're gonna reference what's popular.
>>150369877>rights issueit's a victorian book>>150370023disney didn't flip out when they made a (very dull) depiction of him in Gotham
Hush in a Lego game is surreal. I guess he was a secret unlockable character tucked away, but still.
>>150362273I was hoping for the Anti-Monitor to be the final villain. That cliffhanger will never get resolved.>>150365651He was a bigfig for The Lego Batman Movie.>>150368379>I wanna know where that was confirmed or if you took this information out of your ass.The YouTube description.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5ha2VwHJCw>Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is a brand-new open world action adventure video game that invites players to embark on Bruce Wayne’s epic journey to become the hero of Gotham City, inspired by decades of Batman films, television, comic books, and games, and jam-packed with Batman nostalgia, DC lore, and TT Games’ signature brand of fun-filled LEGO humor.>inspired by decades of Batman films, television, comic books, and games

>>150370439>disney didn't flip out when they made a (very dull) depiction of him in GothamI mean with Lego depictions. I imagine Disney wouldn’t be keen on mind controlling villain Mad Hatter sharing the shelves with Disney Mad Hatter.
>>150370592Okay that's kinda neat ngl gonna lie
