Too bad most people won't get the chance to play this, but this gaming is fucking awesome.By far the best story in the Arkham games.
>>720063103>the best story in the Arkham gamesis joker involved?
>>720063103low bar
>>720063221He has some lines of dialogue, but that's it.
>>720063103they could always release the non-vr version
>>720063103Is it worth it to play on pc instead of native quest 3 for the visuals? Or not much of a difference?
City is the best Arkham and I'm tired of being told I'm wrong. Hopefully LEGO Legacy does prove me wrong though.
>>720063421What do you mean?
>>720065154Pc can run it at a higher graphical fidelity..
>>720065602How can you play a Quest game on PC doe?
>>720063421It sucks, but it's a quest 3 exclusive.
>>720063103Yeah its kino. It's literally Arkham Asylum in VR
>>720063421It's not on PC
>>720063103What headset do I need to play both of the Arkham VR games? Don't tell me I need more than one.
>>720066947You only need a Meta Quest 3
>>720063532That's the worst one by far, unless if there's somehow a fourth one I blocked from my memory that's even worse
>>720063103The VA for Gordon said they're making another one, I hope they focus on environmental gameplay; seemed like a missed opportunity because there was one combat encounter where you could lead enemies onto a shock pad, but that's about it from what I recall
>>720063532>City is the best ArkhamIn what aspect?If it's gameplay, then that's Knight If it's story then that's either Asylum or OriginsAs much as I love City, I'm not sure what aspect it does the best>>720067280Oh no gookbros, don't look at Harley's hand
>>720066947I'm not sure, but I think you can play Arkham VR downloading the steam link in your Quest 3.
>>720067280I hope it's a story focused DLC and it's about The Long Halloween, to close Harvey's character arc and him becoming the two face.It will be interesting when normies discover the Holiday Killer wasn't Alfredo or Harvey, but Gilda all along
>>720067631>As much as I love City, I'm not sure what aspect it does the bestThat's easy: Original Soundtrack.
>>720063103>>720067280Making Arkham games that takes place after Origins is the best thing to do now.There is a big gap between Origins and Asylum. Just think of many possibilities you could do>Batman's first encounter with League of Assassins>Batman and Robin (Dick Grayson) working together, and both have their own side missions >Riddler being the main villian instead of a side villian >Scarecrow having a proper boss fight again just like Asylum Just please bring back Paul Dini or other veteran Batman writer. Also retcon Jason's backstory in Arkham Knight and make it just like in the comics, because it's honestly pretty retarded >>720068552>spoiler Anon, Alberto is already Holiday in Arkham Origins in one of the audio logs, and it's way better than whatever the fuck Jeph Loeb was trying to do in the comics.
>>720068841>Anon, Alberto is already HolidayIt's not confirmed. Arkham Origins extortion files revealed he had psycholgical treatments, not that he was already a murderer.Also, in the comics he assumes the Holiday Killer persona, though he is not the author of most assassinations, only 1 if I rememberAlso, there's a margin for a Holiday Killer closure at the end of Year 3. A possible DLC could start as Batman and Gordon revisiting the previous murders starting at the Halloween before the Christmas riots (Year 2). It's also a perfect opportunity to finish the Two-Face arc, ending said DLC on Year 3 Dec, 31.
>>720069357I haven't played Arkham Shadow, but I think the whole Gilda being Holiday is just so stupid in comic. Hell the whole comic is stupid too. How come the World's Greatest Detective wasn't able to solve any of the murders?At least with Origins, Holiday being an alternate persona for Alberto makes more sense
>>720070212In the context of Arkham Shadow, everyone thinks Falcone ordered Malone to disfigure Harvey, so even more of a reason for her to keep killing Falcone's family and Falcone himself.Also, Gilda being a psychopath herself, using her extensive knowledge from Harvey's files and to kill Falcone's family and associates to "help" her husband in a distorted way, later using them to kill Falcone himself for what she thinks he did to her husbands makes a lot of sense to me.
>>720070212>Hell the whole comic is stupid too. How come the World's Greatest Detective wasn't able to solve any of the murders?Well, if you think about it, every crime scene in the Arkhamverse is solved by Batman because the perpetrator was sloppy, leaving marks or chemical traces that can be followed. In case of Holiday, the Killer comes, shots usually just one victim, leaves the cleaned gun and a leaving a souvenirSo, it's possible for Gilda to have an extensive knowledge in forensic investigation to elude the Police.In short, IMO it's very possible that the Holiday Killer in the Arkhamverse will be at least 3 different people taking the mantle: Alberto, Harvey and Gilda, every one of them at a certain period, thus confusing Batman.
>>720070598Look, no matter how you put it, it's just so stupid. A random housewife was able to carry murders on mobsters and their family, and also had untraceable guns. Add to the fact Batman wasn't able solve any of the murders at allYou have to go through some hoops to make sense some of the murders tooAt least with Alberto, it makes sense if you believe Falcone ordered the murders since it was those that may get in the wayAnyway, they should do Holiday as a follow up to Shadow but keep up what Origins did.
>>720072269Well, Gilda is Harvey's wife. I wouldn't be surprised if she was a Lawyer herself, with extensive knowledge on forensic. This can be stated in Arkhamverse. Usualyl university is when couples meet anyway.The murders didn't leave much space for traces to be followed by Batman, few shots, cleaned gun, cleaned souvenir. Even in Arkham City Batman needed a couple of murders to catch a sloppy Deadshot, and Hush.About your last point, Holiday is the closure of Harvey's arc to become Two-Face. Holiday must be an unwilling shared personna between Gilda, Harvey and Alberto. Gilda is central.
>>720072804If they're gonna go with Gilda being Holiday which I doubt it, they should change a lot of shit from the comic to make sense, mostly background informationAlso City was Hush's first encounter with Batman
>>720073319They will have to change a lot of things. In the comics, Harvey was disfigured by Maroni, now it's "Malone" (Crane, actually).Also, in a possible Arkhamverse The Long Halloween, Gilda definetly wont be just a housewife.>Also City was Hush's first encounter with BatmanIt also applies to Holiday. Sure, the murders went on for more than one year, but it's not like Batman can solve everything at the first crime. Besides, if they share the identity as it happens in the comics, although unwillingly, it will also further confuses Batman
>>720063532>City is the best Arkham and I'm tired of being told I'm wrong.Based.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16fV6RzyHlQ
>>720068632That would be asylum
>>720076549Nah. As great as Asylum's score is, nothing compares to this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1l8fu-jKE0&ab_channel=QuantumThe tension of having to choose between Talia and the inmates as Alfred kept reminding Bruce Batman have to save everyone was top moments in the series.
>>720063103I really wish this would get a non-Quest version or even adapted into a non-VR game. It's really good but it's not worth spending $300 on a Quest 3.
>>720079058Unlikely, since Meta funded the game. Best scenario would be for you to wait the sequel that will only come out with Quest 4, and if you want to play at least you will have a more extended list of games.
>>720076824True, City has the most iconic theme of the lot too.
>And now a completely new entry in the world of Batman Arkham>A meta quest 3 VR exclusiveI don't think I will ever get over this.
Long Halloween, Dark Victory and Hush are all bad. We agree on this, right? They're entertaining enough to read but they all fall flat at the finale and having endings where Batman, world's greatest detective, is left bamboozled by a nonsensical twist is objectively bad for a Batman story.
>>720083137Eventually the suits at WB will want to port it for the extra money, surely. They have a legal duty to their shareholders after all.
>>720083257If we're relying on WB to do something good, we're in bad shape.
>>720083250Only if we're still putting them above killing joke
>>720083250Long Halloween is excellent.
I made the mistake of watching the Hush animated movie BEFORE reading the comic And the """subversion of expectations""" STILL pissed me off
>>720085884Two Face: You idiots, there were always two Holiday KillersBatman: I have literally no idea what this man is talking about. We will never know.
I got it for free with my Quest 3 and never bothered to play it, maybe I'll give it a go
>>720083250They do have their own moments I also liked how Selina played a pivotal role in all three. She's a much better love intrest than Talia, with how much chemistry she was with Bruce
>>720086537It makes sense with Two Face theme.
Why did the devs gib Martha so much ass?
>>720067631City has the best map and visual design, knight has more fidelity but it lacks in terms of artstyle
>>720087353Come on anon, they're reaching for straws with the whole "uhm, well, maybe he means himself? because of his 2 fixation?" explanation.
I wish rocksteady made a superman game instead of taking nearly a decade with suicide squad, they could've blocked the sun and threw him a nuke so he'd be closer to enemy level
>>720067631has the best goon dialogue
>>720087629Do you know what a trophy wife is?
>>720083250Hush yes, the others no. TLH in particular is great, it's just not great because of its center mystery. Their preceding one-shots are arguably better than TLH on account of not being beholden to a continuous narrative, though.
>>720089134https://youtu.be/SEge8e0qBNEhttps://youtu.be/DvRvkVxWhnAhttps://youtu.be/oeKCF4Jmw68On a side note, I love how they use the same three voice actors for the thugs. Just one of the things that gives the Arkham games its own identity
>>720088696>knight has more fidelityActually, Knight has the least fidelity IMO.It lacks tall art deco buildings Gotham is known for.They should have added them on the landscape at least to keep the identity of the City.
>>720063532Having replayed both in the last week, I prefer Asylum. There are aspects that City does better, of course, but I like how Asylum acts as a guided tour of the Batman universe. It just feels more focused.I've never played Origins. I might do that next.
>>720087103Can you explain this chemistry that catwoman and batman? I personally find it hard to comprehend why a hardline enforcer like Batman would make exceptions just for pussy.
>>720093397It's a very nice pussy doe
>>720063103>By far the best story in the Arkham games.You can't be serious, did you forget Bruce Wayne has a newly introduced black woman tutor who took care of him since he was a child and knows he is batman too? and bosses him around too, and batman pretends to some sort of undercover criminal goon to get inside blackgate in the most boring sections of the game where you are not playing as batman
>>720093397>I personally find it hard to comprehend why a hardline enforcer like Batman would make exceptions just for pussy.Because 1) She only steals from corrupt people and doesn't harm innocent people in the process 2) She does help Batman from time to time, so she's more of an allyI also like how in Long Halloween, Bruce and Selina know each other, and Selina ended saving Bruce from Poison Ivy without knowing that he's Batman
>>720095074>newly introducedLeslie Thompkins is an established character in the comics.Didn't you watch at least the animated series?
>>720095074>puts on the sonic voice>WHAT THE HEEEEEEELL ARRRR YOU TALKIN' ABOOOOOOOUT MY NAME'S MALOOOOOONE
make a vidya featuring the best batman villain of all time or else
>>720095238One of the main reasons I want The Long Halloween adapted by camouflaj, either as an Arkham Shadow DLC or a sequel.Great opportunity for the development of Bruce-Selina, Bruce-Harvey, Bruce-Grayson, Bruce-Babs, even Bruce-Gordon...Some changes will have to be made to fit Arkham Shadow's plot, but mostly remains untouched.
>>720098505Didn't she appear in one of the btas games from the gamecube
>>720098505She has a dialogue in Arkham Shadow, actually. She still hasn't returned from her travels, which means Phantasm hasn't happened yet, but it will.
>>720098772neat
>>720098924https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dIFe4qFTdaI
>>720067631City has the best bosses, from what I remember. Everything else is done better in the other games.
>>720099138origins has better bosses
>>720095074>batman pretends to some sort of undercover criminal goonAre you trying to say you don't know who Matches Fucking Malone is?Next you'll be telling us you've never heard of Knute Brody either.
>>720099498I remember Origins having cooler presentation, but the bosses themselves either felt like repeats from previous games or somewhat simple mechanically.Then again, it's been years since I've played either.
>>720099684Origins takes inspiration from (mostly) City bosses, and it makes the fights even better.
>>720098509>Bruce-BabsGo away Bruce TimmLeave the Arkham games alone
>>720063103True
