It would have sucked if it was Batman Beyond. Beyond stopped being good after a certain point because Bruce Timm is the worst member of his team and ruined what made Terry distinct. Also, if it was written by the same guys behind City and Knight, the plot would have sucked ass.
>>
>no Kevin Conroy for Old Bruce

Beyond's rogues weren't even that memorable, to the point most people will bring up the clown sluts even though they only existed in the movie

Both Asylum and City plots were written by Paul Dini while Knight and SS stories were made by Rocksteady writers. So yeah, almost certainly it would suck

Beyond's rogues are the gold standard for mantle passes. Marvel wishes they had even ONE original rogue as good as Inque or Shriek to go with nigga spider-man. Spellbinder, Mad Stan, Curare, Stalker, and the Royal Flush gang were also great.

Honestly I wouldn't need or even want Hamill to do Joker for a Batman Beyond game. Return of the Joker is great but there's no need to revisit it in a game. Terry has plenty of his own rogues; enough that you could probably make one incredible game or two lighter ones.

>>723440772
I'll give you Stalker as a Kraven expy, Earth Mover as Sandman, and obviously Spellbinder is reminiscent of Mysterio. But the rest of his stuff is pretty unique. Shriek, Inque, Willie Watt (both appearances), Armory, Mad Stan, Curare, Blight, the star trek plagiarizer, the intangibility guy, and the guy with the suit that repels everything are all unique and not based on Bruce or Spider-Man's rogues.
>>
>>723440313
Asylum's plot was pretty alright for what was esentially a greatest hits boss rush. I think it got worse in City because bigger = better right? Nah, just about all the bosses were pretty bad. Now it was a boss rush with worse pacing.

The DeeDees were also in Justice League.

The villains of Beyond were fun but most of them wouldn’t work well in an Arkham game as they would involve more aerial combat. Best a game could do with Arkham combat would be Blight (obviously), Shriek, Big Time, Mad Stan, and maybe Inque and Spellbinder in some sort of puzzle fight (but that was already done before with Freeze). Others like the Royal Flush Gang, Willie Watt or Repeller would have to be too gimmicky to be a battle of skill.

Terry is like miguel in that he's a version of a popular superhero in a futuristic setting. But he's more like miles as they're both young and upcoming supes mentored by older and more experienced heroes to "pass the torch". But terry has a distinct personality from bruce, lives in a very different gotham and has his own rogue's gallery. Whereas miles is just the same spiderman with the same villains in the same city except black. And mexican. And he sucks cock.

I remember in one of the cartoons of this era, some goon got the power to phase through stuff and at the end of the episode he loses control of his power and sinks forever into the middle of the Earth until he dies. Was that Batman Beyond or Static Shock?

That’s Peek, season 2 of Batman Beyond.

Batman Beyond's greatest problem was trying to force it into the DCAU and then ultimately retconning it being Bruce's son/clone.

Joker should've beaten Tim Drake to death with a crowbar, it would've been a better fate than what really happened to him.

You mean, a dystopian cyberpunk shithole version of the original's city. Who would never have become a crimefighter except for the excesses of an amoral CEO ruining their life. Who both differentiate themselves from their namesakes by being a lot more willing to let people die. Both having some aspect that's the opposite of their namesake, with Terry being untrained but propped up by the Batsuit to Bruice being well trained but only having the powersuit as a last resort, and Miguel's webshooters being organic spinnerettes to Peter's genius invention.

Executive meddling didnt decide that AKSHUALLY Terry and his lil bro are genetic sons of Bruce Wayne because of some genetic sperm change cuckoldry.
No no but you see, only Bruce wayne's direct genetic code can be MUH REAL BATMAN and there HAS to be one of them. THE WORLD NEEDS AN AUTIST LIKE BRUCE WAYNE.
Hey you know how Terry's dad's death is the big reason why Terry awakens to the path of justice and decides to fight crime? LOL LMAO, wasnt even his actual dad. Just a carrier for Bruce's sperm

Timm is a fucking hack. The best part of Beyond was the fact that anyone with a drive to fight injustice could be batman. You didnt need to be born privileged to be able to fight crime. Also, I guess fuck Dick Grayson, and the rest of the Bat senpai because NO THERE HAS TO BE A DIRECT DESCENDANT OF BRUCFE WAYNE. NO ONE CAN BE LIKE HIM. HE'S SO HECKING SPECIAL.
Bruce timm should never be allowed to touch anything batman both after what he did to Beyond and then the butchering of Barbara and Bruce's relationship in killing joke.

>>723441625
be a fun opportunity to have a villain be a mid 00's liberal who's cryogenically thawed out in 2040 where basically everything they demanded of society has happened, and they can't cope with missing out on making the difference. Everyone's eating lab grown meat that's safe and healthy and animal exploitation is all but gone, the entire trans movement is gone since treatments exist to alter ones dna so no more hrt or destructive surgery, nobody cares about the distinction much anymore. Instead of that being paradise they're alienated and dejected because they had nothing else in their life but their grievances and reject the current society and go destructively looking for new more banal or unhinged causes.

Ah it's this fucking autist again. Sorry but yes, intelligence, physical skill, and even moral conviction are greatly informed by your genetics. But also,

Isn't remotely true. In fact one of the main reasons that Terry is so much better adjusted than Bruce is because his mom and dad were around to raise him.

Yeah, nah. This is the world of fiction bro. There is serious effort to make Bruce Wayne peak human. Do you really think they'd make his son a boring ugly manlet accountant? Nah, his son is going to be a peak human like him.

Shittiest retcon

Nah that's exactly some shit amanda waller would do
>>
The bat cum was dumb cause Terry is clearly his own man regardless of genetics, he could not have been more different from Bruce.
>>
>>723442896
Not anywhere close to an extent that someone would go out of their way to fucking create an entire super secret genetic program.
It would make a lot more sense if this was a plotline for Superman etc, because yeah, he IS genetically superior.
In Batman lore alone, multiple people handle being batman when Bruce is incapacitated.
The only thing Bruce has above the rest is his IQ. Which is NOT a guaranteed inheritance at all. Some of the smartest people on the planet have absolutely normal if not dumb kids.
Terry could have easily remained a street kid that was smarter than the rest and was then mentored by Bruce to make up for his deficiencies. It makes for a better character.
The Epilogue plot completely shits on not only the entire agency Terry has had into becoming Batman, by making it a HE WAS THE DESTINED SUCCESSOR ALL ALONG garbage.
You simply cannot convince me otherwise I'm sorry

>>723439252
Based, it would never be as good as the cartoons were.

The thing about the batcum twist is they must have come up with it early on in development for the show.
Look at Terry's parents, they're both redheads, yet had two sons with black hair. It was planned all along.
>>
>ruins everything because his love of cuckoldry was stronger
>>
>>723443428
wait, both kids are Bruce's?
>>
>>723443428
>Look at Terry's parents, they're both redheads, yet had two sons with black hair. It was planned all along.
If Terry was going to be someone else's son, it still shouldn't have been Bruce.
>>723443481
Yeah
>>
>>723443481
Yep.
Which means Terry basically had a Robin waiting to join him.
>>
>>723443242
DCAU Cadmus tried to recreate Superman already. Or Supergirl. Or whatever the fuck Galatea was meant to be besides Power Girl with a different name.
>>
>>723443457
>cartoonist decides to write
>shit ensues
>>
>>723443313
>It would make a lot more sense if this was a plotline for Superman etc,
The whole reason that Waller was able to do this is specifically because the tech was already invented and used to clone supergirl.
>The only thing Bruce has above the rest is his IQ.
And his autistic willpower and fixations
>Which is NOT a guaranteed inheritance at all.
Nobody said it was. In fact Waller outright says Terry isn't as smart. Which is kind of the point of the finale, that Terry is a better batman specifically because he didn't end up following in Bruce's footsteps, in spite of Waller's initial intentions. Unlike Bruce, who sits in his mansion a bitter defeated loser because he alienated everyone who ever tried to care about him, Terry has a chance to live a better life and rely on his friends and family.
>The Epilogue plot completely shits on not only the entire agency Terry has had into becoming Batman, by making it a HE WAS THE DESTINED SUCCESSOR ALL ALONG garbage.
It literally directly says that fate is bullshit and that what Terry has done and will do are entirely his own choices.

Another thing that sucks about the DCAU. These composite characters suck.
>>
>>723443428
Because it was. The original Paul Dini story was that it was Selina Kyle that was going to clone/testtube baby a kid from Bruce (because he didnt slam one into her lmao) and then raise that kid into being a more ruthless Batman.
basically the plot that eventually became Talia and Damien's.
That movie never got made, and the basic premise got changed into what we got after Bruce Timm got his hands on it
>>
>>723443584
Galatea a cute
>>
Waller's plan was stupid because even with Bruce's DNA and two dead parents, Terry couldn't be Batman without also having Bruce's money.
>>
>>723439252
there was one on the n64 and it was hot dogshit

Jason todd died because of a rigged poll.
Remember that Simpsons episode where Bart was asked to choose between the 10k and the elephant? DC comics wanted to "have a closer approach with the audience" with death in the family, making people choose via phone poll if Jason Todd will die or not, knowing that no Robin getting killed will win the poll.
Turns out "Kill Robin" won, and DC comitted with the result. Turns out that years later they discovered that some random basement dweller tampered the poll by using a machine that simulated thousands of phone calls, all calling the "kill Robin" number.

Would it have to be an Arkham game? I don't really know how you can do it. I guess Bruce faking his death could be his forced retirement and going into reclusion. And retcon suicide squad. What would the plot be though? An origin story? Would it follow the cartoons or the comics that came after it?

The problem with Jason is his fanbase is pretty much divided into two camps: the ones who want him to be the edgy DC Punisher and killing criminals, and the others who want him part of the whole Batfamily.
The two sides are mutually exclusive, so DC has no idea what to do with him.

Miles is almost a carbon copy of Peter. He's a color swap and that's it. Same personality, same strengths, same motivation. This was done intentionally, because the goal was to replace Peter with Miles as often as possible. He couldn't be noticeably different except for the addition - and not subtraction - of a few extra superpowers on top of what Peter had.

In what world? Miles isn't a nerd, was raised by his parents, is very socially outgoing, and he suffers from imposter syndrome. In the comics part of his motivation is to prove his Uncle Aaron wrong.
Peter is proudly geeky, swoons over women, and struggles with anger issues. He's obviously motivated by the guilt of him being able to prevent his uncles death who told him the whole code about great strength and great responsibility.

Bruce is also genetically predisposed to be fucking crazy. His mom became the Joker in a timeline were Bruce was shot instead of his parents.

When they actually tried to do something with Terry in comics in New 52, Future's End, they did a shitty wrong-future story that was both crappy and too edgy and basically sank any chance of Terry being used again for a decade.

Not really, this isn't the board for it but the majority of the story telling was about the corruption Gotham eventually fell into despite Bruce's efforts, like TDKR it sort of highlights a city can be saved but needs to save itself to remain so.
Teenage drama is used to address that often, but it's mostly to show how screwed the future generation is due to the failings of the prior.

Bane's Venom become slappers anyway, Dr.Dorian's genetic experiments becoming splicing anyway, Joker's psychotic antics inspiring a delinquent subculture anyway.

The "best" stuff however has little to do with the youth, like Sneak Peak, Mr. Freeze, Talia, Inque and Blight's ironic fates, Mad Stan's rants.
I'd also throw in Superman, but mileage may vary on the tone it establishes for every moment since its premise until Terry getting involved.

The show actually uses the cyberpunk/flash forward concept well to address a lot of things without feeling like "a very special episode" or out of step with Batman media. Solid design work in that last area too.

Bruce was replaced by Terry in a more respectful and dynamic manner, having grown too old while there was still work to be done. Peter on the other hand was not given any such courtesy, Miles takes his place when Peter is still perfectly capable of doing his job and is basically pulled off-stage by the writers just so Miles gets to be in the spotlight. I don't know why but Spider-Man writers really just love to shit on Peter these days, I remember him being much stronger both in body and mind back when I was reading Spider-Man comics in 90s-00s, now he's basically a twink and has constant issues.

Terry's entire story is about how he isn't Bruce and a mutual relation between himself and Bruce where Bruce trains Terry to be the hero he needs to be, and Terry helps mend the old wounds in Bruce's heart that completely corrupted him as a person (reminder that Bruce completely froze his suit while Terry was in it and fully prepared to let him get beaten to death in the first episode of the show). It was give-and-take, not one or the other.

Miles' entire existence from the get-go was just taking from Peter. He got a similar set of powers, which is fine since that doesn't really mean much in the grand scheme of things. He took over the exact same roster of antagonists with one or two new additions. He took over Peter's persona life in the Ultimate universe. Out-of-universe the writers at Marvel were upfront with the fact that Miles' character was introduced just because Obama was president-- think that you will about the man, but that's the stated reason why Miles was created. There wasn't an ounce of respect when they passed things on.

You'd think that things would at least get better for Peter in the mainline universe, considering that Marvel has not only gotten their cake but are allowed to eat it too. But that just doesn't happen. Because of One More Day, the writers basically get a free pass to just shit on Peter however they want, and any attempts to change that have been outright blocked by their editorial department that wants Peter to stay young and relatable for some bizarre reason, which in their minds means that he needs to be shit on relentlessly and isn't allowed to be given a break. How is it that none of his hardships were acknowledged until fucking One World Under Doom?

Also Terry's girlfriend is the self-insert of some ugly cunt on the writing team and you have to play as her for at least a 3rd of the game.

They didn't, though. The entire point is that Terry became Batman of his own volition, rather than falling into the entire plot that Amanda Waller engineered to make a carbon copy of Bruce. They say this pretty explicitly in Epilogue. He had Bruce's genes, but those didn't mean squat since Terry is who made Batman, Batman.

Terry is so far in the future that fans can pretend Batman Beyond is an elseworlds story and won't interfere with their heckin status quo. Miles was ALSO an elseworlds character, but because they moved him into the main 616 universe now he's "shoehorned", now he's "black Peter Parker" even tough Peter LITERALLY has two clones of himself walking around since the fucking 90s. People are TERRIFIED of Miles taking Peter's spot even though it's apparent that will never happen and you should treat the pair like Kamen Rider Ichigo and Niigo.

It's not the Amanda Waller Task Force X show. It's not about what Amanda Waller would or wouldn't do. It's Batman Beyond, about Terry McGinnis, and as a Beyond story it adds absolutely nothing to the character. It's not even an interesting or entertaining Batman story, except for the one scene with Bruce and Ace.

>>723439942
Even ignoring the rest of her screentime, the scene where Inque force-feeds herself to Terry to choke him to death on its own is extremely memorable for how fucked up it is.

No! No one can be Batman/Spider-Man other themselves and I'm tired of pretending otherwise. No one in the same circumstances would turn into them. Them being who they are as a person, down to the genetic level, is the decisive factor to become heroes in those specific conditions.

Not only is it a shitty retcon, it's a self-contradiction.

>Terry became Batman on his own merits
>that's why we needed to retroactively reveal that he was biologically the son of Bruce Wayne and set up to become Batman from birth
Why not just let him be his own person? Literally the only thing the retcon adds is a bit of retroactive realization that Terry's parents are probably separated at the beginning of the show because Warren believes Mary was guilty of infidelity.

They did let him be his own person. There was an entire plot to kill Terry's father that didn't come to pass because Barbara came to her senses and realized that everything they were doing was fucking retarded and refused to pull the trigger. Terry becoming Batman was entirely by accident after that point, not by design.

Yes, I watched Epilogue. My point is "Why does Terry need to be the son of Bruce Wayne if the moral of the episode is that Terry became his own person with his own unique experiences?"

And you can pin this on Gotham more than Terry and his lineage. Because it was nothing less than Gotham's inherent darkness and corruption that thrust Terry down that rabbit hole.

Because Miles is a nothing character.
The ONLY piece of media that tried to do SOMETHING with Miles is the Spider-Verse films and I still feel that's the "bare-minimum" rather than any full potential.
Look at other Spider-Man successors, Ben Reilly, Mayday Parker, they all had something that set them apart and made them interesting. Ben Reilly was 90s cool and Mayday was this cocky athletic tomboy (and arguably the most canon successor), etc.
Miles is just a black version of Peter Parker. He's the literal definition of a DEI character, the thing people on this site (and out of this site) forget is that Woke and DEI used to be defined as FORCED diversity characters. If a writer has a genuinely interesting idea for a minority character, then they use that, same as any other good character. A good character is marked by being interesting, DEI exists to fill up a checklist, a diversity quota.
If you ask me, Miles should've been set apart by having his personality be radically different than Peter's, as well as giving him a few interesting ideas to make him actually stand out, like giving him a more martial arts oriented background. He maybe suffers more than Peter in the long-run in his life, make his story more like the manga Holyland, but eventually he gains a more stoic outlook on life and becomes far more like an unmovable mountain. I'd also make him a deeply spiritual character (or a character that BECOMES deeply spiritual).
Hire me Marvel, I will mog all your current writers (except the nu-Ultimate guys, they are doing great).

Personally, I do think it makes sense that you need to be as autistic as Bruce to be Batman. Anyone else would have gotten killed off ages ago. You can't be one of the greatest superheroes in the world without sacrificing anything. I know Epilogue made a big deal about how Terry doesn't HAVE to make the same sacrifices as Bruce, but I feel that kinda cheapens what Batman is. Batman only became as exceptional as he became because Bruce gave everything he had and more to it. If he didn't go as far as he did, he would have been a lesser hero. He wouldn't have deserved to be a founding member of the Justice League. It's only through his sheer autistic determination that he became as great as hero as the likes of Superman.

The more apt comparison is Terry and Miguel, because both are successors done right. Miles is treated as a REPLACEMENT of Peter, not a successor. He's poorly-written, has the same powers (but better), has the same supporting cast/opponents, the same setting, and is just a less likeable character than Peter with less interesting problems.

Miguel and Terry are both great successors because they stand separate from their predecessor. They have different powers, skillsets, settings, supporting casts, and rivals. Terry is an apprentice to Bruce, Miguel is TOTALLY separated from Peter, but both work. They both bring something new to the table because they aren't just meant to be the original but better. They have different plotlines to face and different issues to overcome, using different toolsets to do it. Most importantly, Terry and Miguel are likeable characters with fun personalities.

Terry is objectively worse at basically all "skills" but he has the futuristic supersuit. So he's got a different set of "powers" than Bruce. Bruce is a better fighter, detective, and tactician, but Terry can fly, has super strength, and knows how to troll people.

Terry isnt as mentally ill as Bruce. When he ran into his old villians, he didnt just punch them in the face. He sympathised with them, tried to talk them out of it, even reached out his hand in friendship.

>>723506339
Bruce tried to be nicer and optimistic earlier on in his career. He only became more jaded after the timeskip between BTAS and TNBA. It took like ten or so years for Bruce to become a total hardass. And even then, he did lighten up a bit after joining the Justice League.

>>
>>723506836
Yeah, I know he made it for himself, but the suit was never in his powerset (i.e. he never used it) and it's not iconic for him to have it. You're just being obtuse and ignoring the obvious differences between what Terry can do and what Bruce can do. This is like saying that web-shooters aren't in Miles's powerset because they were invented by Peter. Bruce is a trained ninja with gadgets, Terry is a teenager with an Iron Man suit, and the difference is fun

At that point, he was so jaded that I think it became harder for him to care. Most criminals stay criminals. Even if it seemed like they might get better, they didn't. Remember, Bruce was generally a lot more sympathetic towards criminals in BTAS. But things just didn't improve. The only reason most of his old rogues don't wreak havoc is Gotham anymore is because they're either dead or too old and broken to do much of anything.

Most of Terry's enemies ended up self-destructing. And Bruce was too old and tired to care anymore.

The thing is that it's not only the suit, it's the suit for the physical part and also Bruce in his ear for the intellectual part, but what makes it interesting is that it doesn't result in his character being done.
The suit doesn't make it so that Bruce has a flesh dummy that can just turn up in the pay-to-win armor, kick the villain's ass using Bruce's genius plan, and who then simply adds comedy gold commentary.
It's because Terry still fails, and tries to find his own way, while negotiating Bruce's input, that makes him compelling as a Batman.
Functionally you can say the suit and Bruce give him his powers and that's that, but an important part of it is, having been giving the suit and a mentor, he can successfully work with them to actually achieve something in a Gotham that also hasn't stood still.

>>723508139
I don't know why you're bringing that up. The argument wasn't about who was a great hero or anything. Just that Terry and Bruce have different skills and powers.

The suit did a lot of the work, plus Bruce coming up with ways to deal with most issues. Bruce was generally the brains of the outfit and Terry was always heavily disadvantaged whenever they got cut off from each other.

Plus Bruce tended to do really well against crazy metahumans in Justice League. I doubt Terry could have dodged Darkseid's Omega Beams.
>>
>>723510739
Also, it's worth pointing out that a lot of Terry's enemies were kinda stupid. Like Blight was powerful, but he was incredibly self-destructive and unstable. That's actually how a lot of Terry's enemies went down. They blew themselves up due to sheer insanity or incompetence.

Bruce is not replaced. He literally was too old. Terry was Batman II. It wasn't a replacement it was a legitimate, wanted succession. Bruce wanted someone in the suit, Terry was capable of being in the suit.

The movie proves this is not true. Terry defeats Bruce's greatest nemesis using tactics Bruce would have never considered. Terry is different, not inferior.

Joker just happened to lose his joybuzzer and Terry retrieved it. That's not a tactic Bruce wouldn't have used.
>>
>>723510993
The main difference is Terry is more street smart. Bruce knows the Joker is trying to get a rise out of him but never drops the act that causes that attention seeking behaviour in the first place.
Terry is self aware enough that when he wears the suit, he’s a human being and not a symbol, so he can actually fire back and completely demolish Joker’s viewpoint in 2 seconds and ruin the game
>>
>>723511667
Not that Bruce would have needed to resort to that, since he could have just beaten Joker up. That said, it's funny how much Joker was manhandling Terry during that fight. The suit was always weirdly vulnerable to just being punched. You'd think the super suit would offer more protection.
>>
There's a greater than 0% chance old Bruce wanted his younger self what was going to happen to Tim and probably caused a time pardox trying to stop it.

He's also willing to put the effort, i don't remember the exact quote, but terry basically says that he knows he's the kind of punk that batman wouldn't have punched twice, but he still wants to try.

Batman Beyond and Metroid Prime are usually the first things that come to mind when deflecting the "it was a shitty idea" criticisms.
It's not the idea that sucks but your ability to work with it. Any concept that sounds like garbage during a pitch like 'fps metroid' or 'batman in high school' can be spun around into something cool with enough creativity.

Five minutes of looking up children's programming in your country could prove you wrong, which is why I guess you don't do it.

I've gone back and forth on Epilogue. I never realized that the black and white scenes where Terry leaves Dana or has the argument with Bruce didn't actually happen, they were situations that Terry was contemplating. Bruce's only actual appearance in the episode was when he made the soup, and there's no indication that he knew Terry's origin, though it wouldn't be surprising if he did. That's why Terry's later conversations with Dana and Bruce don't acknowledge any of the drama from those previous encounters, because they never happened. When you realize this, you understand how much of the episode is just Terry's coming to terms with his feelings.

Terry being Bruce's son is a really lame reveal. On the surface, it's WOW COOL HIS SON, but I now think that UGH, HE DOESN'T NEED TO BE HIS SON may be just immediately below that surface and not a particularly deep take either. Rather I think the message is supposed to be that in spite of everything, Terry became Batman not because of how he was created, but because of who he was as a person. Amanda Waller never gave him the trauma that changed him, Gotham did completely on its own, because Gotham needs a Batman. His parents raised him right. Terry became Batman of his own volition, against Bruce's objections, and he helped and saved people because that's what was natural to him. And when Terry comes to understand this, that he is not his genetics, he understands that Bruce has been a good mentor/father figure, and though Bruce would never prioritize having a family over the mission, his heroic actions did ultimately result in him being given a son whom he will be there to support and is there for him.

It always bothered me how inconsistent the beyond suits strength was. In some scenes he says it like a 10x magnification of his strength and he can bench press a car or like in this one karate chop steel hand cuffs. Then in other scenes he'll be trapped under some rubble or bound with a chain or get bodied by a big guy with muscles.

Its like they couldn't decide if he was batman levels or like spider-man levels of strength and it varied from episode to episode, and sometimes scene to scene.

You likely jest, but basically the gag is emotional whiplash.
He'd thought he already failed and hung his head in preparation for the class hearing he and Blade were still the worthless delinquents they're pegged, but is overjoyed to hear things turned out well to prove his good character, turning to ever supportive Dana expecting her to be happy for him as well, and she is, but her and others are signaling arousal more than anything from the news so her headspace was a little out of step with his on what the news meant.

Although you're correct that's true, I think the major strength of the series was always the character writing and plot concepts. If those are enough to get you engaged than those kind of technical details can be handwaved.

The reason why a lot of criticism focuses on plot holes or technical details like strength being inconsistent is because the media has failed elsewhere so the viewers aren't engaged, and things like plot holes are more objective so critics latch onto that because it sounds smarter to say "there's this logical inconsistency" than "the story and characters didn't engage me."

>>723520762
Short answer yes

Long answer, it's baffling it doesn't already exist given the groundwork for it to.
Gotham is a shithole, no doubt, so I won't act like the events of City and Knight were that far fetched but I honestly feel the world of Gotham Beyond lends itself better to an open world with routine havoc in the streets than its present day.
You don't need a contrived plot for Hugo Strange or Scarecrow to take over, shady people like Paxton Powers are already in power and flooding the city with every form of corruption there is along with the rampant gang violence from Ts and Jokerz.

The only reason I can see for devs being averse is preferring Bruce as Batman or fearing customers will and won't buy the game, but honestly it wouldn't be that hard to do a DMC4 I hesitate to say the more apropos Spider-Man 2 because that didn't leave the best impression where half the missions are a little before Bruce retired but is using the Beyond suit and the latter half are Terry stuff.

Na its a writing thing.
If Miles writing was say on the level of Nightwing, that is to say Miles has his own city, enemies, cast, etc, he would be better received.
Another good example, before DC went to shit would be Wally West, he straight up replaced the original flash Barry Allen, but he was so well written that people loved him.
Miles WOULD be loved and enjoyed if he just had proper writers, sadly all he has are people that use him as a mouthpiece that can do no wrong, talk down to Peter and keeps getting more and more retarded powers.
Then again his origin was literally just Bendis wanting to make a black Spider-Man so perhaps he was always doomed.

I think maybe the industry bloat that was going on long before streaming was delivering some death blows plus the material cost of living on the west coast skyrocketing (the outer areas of jap cities are actually decently affordable) was going to choke out western animation anyway. But also, a huge difference that I don't think gets mentioned enough is that western animation didn't use that one good window of time it had to create more tv adaptations that could've launched even higher in popularity and staying power in people's minds. They were pretty rare compared to what television anime was doing. Western fiction novels used to have decent variety with a lot of good stuff a couple decades ago, but now the moment is passed.

A lot of jap anime that proved to have some staying power (take FMA as one popular example) are basically collaborations between a passionate writer who already caught some kind of audience (like a manga author) and the anime staff. These authors didn't have to be perfect at all, just have some passion to build on. And then the staff didn't have to stress and sweat so much over the important story beats. These different levels of collaboration helped each other out.

It's a good bit of bantz from Priest, but can't be as egregious as Fury unless and until everyone starts curiously referring to him as Black Panther in a familiar and defacto fashion.
And Priest even at his shitpostiest wouldn't sink to that level of hack writing others are willing to for synergy royalties or the behest of editorial mandate.
