>let's just end the series at the peak of its popularity when it makes us a ton of money
>>729749508Should have either made a Superman game or bamham beyond with actual good combat
>>729749508Arkham Knights was probably the sequel and they called an audible midway
>>729749508>let's just end the series at the peak of its popularity when it makes us a ton of moneyBased, more franchises should do this
They clearly ran out of ideas alreadythe batmobile was their entire new gimmick so they made sure to shove it down your throat as much as possiblealso not every game needs to turn into COD or Ass Creed
>>729749508The story was over, gameplay was perfected and honestly if you try to beat all 3,5 games one after the other you will get so tired of it. Why do you niggers always want games and movies to not have a conclusion, an end? You don't need another Arkham game just like you don't need another fallout after 1, 2 and nv. Switch to new stories and games. If you crave arkham style game, go play mad max. Move on.
>>729749508These games just got worse and worse as they went on. Asylum was GOATED.
>>729750051I would say the ideas are there, it's just after knight general retard audiences would expect more. Knight is already the result of that expectation and you have to clear a whole fucking city alone. It was stupid in origins, it's stupid in city because no one would give an entire district to criminals and it's extra stupid in knight. Justice league threat level already. This was the only possible way for game to grow, get more characters, and not from batfamily.Id be pretty happy with smaller bat adventure, more stealth, more puzzles that could be solved with different approaches and tools. But we can't have that, that won't sell well.
>>729750529It peaked with city, after it took assylum formula and made it better, after city it got worse.
The reason this series died is because of the live service hype. They went on to make 2 new DC games with the hope of them being live service and both bombed.
>>729749508should have ended with Asylum. this game is a prime example of a cash grab
>>729749508And then they made Suicide Squad for some godforsaken reason
>>729749508>let's just end the series at the peak of its popularity when it makes us a ton of moneyThey didn't though. They tried to capitalize on its popularity and expand the franchise. It's just that they made some of the most horrendous piles of shit of all time, so you've convinced yourself they stopped at Knight as a way to cope with this uncomfortable reality.
They had some integrity, then they were dug out of their grave
>>729749508Fine by me to end the series with Arkham Knight since I don't want the series to get the Asscreed treatment, and you can't top the gameplay Scarecrow was the best choice for the final villian, since he's the most underutilized Batman villian everAlso I enjoyed the batmobile and wish more games had vehicular combat just like Knight
>>729749508They killed the momentum with that gutter trash suicide squad game they were mandated to make into a live service game.
>>729751383I also enjoyed the batmobile, gets absurdly undeserved hate. I do think some of the sections with it are silly but it's overall fun to use.
>>729751383>the most underutilized Batman villian everBatman has a fucking massive list of villains and Scarecrow sees plenty of use in comparison to a good chunk of them.
>>729751383>since he's the most underutilized Batman villian everThe game would be a masterpiece if the final villain turned out to be Egghead.
>>729749508sometimes corporations just be like that
>>729752109The only sections that are awful with the Batmobile is the Arkham Knight boss fight and some of Riddler of stuff>>729752553Underutilized and underused are two different thingsYes, Scarecrow does get used a lot, but most of the time, he's boiled down to a villian where fear toxin is his whole gimmick Arkham Knight does try to make Scarecrow more than that
>>729749508Never got the hype for these. PRESS B OVER AND OVER AND WATCH BATMAN DO COOL PUNCH COMBOS! B B B B B B. Yoooo look at that bro batman is so sick. Especially at a time when MW2 was in its prime. Borderlands, oblivion. Nah bro. Let's do cringe beatemup spam attacks with batman where its impossible to lose.
@729753604Wow, the bait is almost fresh. I can almost taste the sincerity.
>>729751383>since I don't want the series to get the Asscreed treatmentit already happened with Suicide Squadalso what the fuck is your pic
>>729753784>it already happened with Suicide SquadBy asscreed treatment, i meant the series gets progressively worse with each entry because publishers keeps milking itArkham games ended with high note with KnightAnd besides, Suicide Squad is a universally shat on game, so pretty much everyone is ignoring its existence >also what the fuck is your picRiddler getting what he deserves by Scarecrow
>>729749643>bamham beyondi mean arkham knight was already half way there, they REALLY missed the change for a proper money maker, idiots
>>729750051They could've just done Batman Beyond.
>>729749643Those already, /v/ is too full of normalfaggots now to play batman nes. The reason everything is shit now is because normalfaggots would rather play gay movie games than batman nes, they are killing video games worse than any culture war nonsense
>>729753604cereally warnerbros combat is the absolute worst. it was plaguing all the games at the time and even bangers like sleeping dogs were ruined because of it. at least we have decent lock on dodge combat now instead of le cutscene combat. maybe if there was 10x more enemy variety it would have been fine, but dont make me cinematic attack a skinny dude, a fat dude, and a fat dude with armor (the ultimate endgame goyim) whole fuckin game
