BATMENG: HOTHAMWATER KNIGHT

[Abraham Smashington]

having to start this over again kind of sucked but I get to replay everything as Keaton so that's nice.

Still not a fan of the Batmobile as it's currently used. If they make another game, I hope it's used way less or at least have boss fights again. I miss shit like the Mr. Freeze fight from the past games.

hahah. What the shit?

I can't decide if I like playing as Adam West or Michael Keaton more.

Long story but it's a suit that a Batman from another planet used (Silver Age stuff), that Grant Morrison brought back decades later and featured in Batman RIP.

It's a free suit you can redeem under the WBPlay option in the main menu of the game.

PIcked up the 89 Batsuit as well. It's fantastic.

Not as cool as my Zur En Arrh suit.

Beat the Two-Face missions and the Harley Quinn mission this weekend. PIcked up the 89 Batsuit as well. It's fantastic.

Heh, that first Man-Bat encounter is great.

I agree with grave, other than the races, freeing Catwoman was fun, you get to play as her for a bit during some of them and you only have to do those specific missions to free her.

nice to know. Is it true that I have to 100% the fucking game to get the "real" ending?

Yeah. There is one full ending but you unlock pieces of it depending on your progress. If you just blast through the game and finish only the story, you get part one. If you finish 7 of the 14 side missions and beat the story, you get part one and the option to immediately see part two. If you 100% the game you will get all three parts.

I finished the story and then waited to take the option until I hit 100%. Honestly, if you have a backlog and don't care about the trophies just do the YouTube Maneuver.

Also, what Anderson said.

I beat every fucking riddle for that real ending and it annoyed the balls out of me.

Especially since Rocksteady has no plans to return to Batman after this game.

Did you beat the game? He interacts with him big time near the end.

Yes, but I thought that was so boring and out of nowhere. He spends the entire game ignoring him completely and just being stoic and like Joker doesn't exist...then flips out? Eh. I wanted to see him bickering and bitching. Even the ending "interaction" felt so...bland?

It's great, but so much. I HAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE that Batman never interacts with him. Wasted opportunity.

I really dig the stuff they're doing with The Joker. It's my favorite part of the game so far. Hamill sounds like he's having a blast

Except for the races and one of the batmobile puzzles, I liked the Catwoman missions. They really force you to mix up your playstyle.

[gravedigger]

Nope. You only need to do the challenges the Riddler actually directs you to when you choose the Riddler on the Mission Select screen. With the challenge rooms in the orphanage included, I think it's only 12-13 things to do. However, I'm not sure if those mission are unlocked through trophy progression. I can tell you that I didn't actively hunt trophies until I finished the main story and I never had to wait for the Riddler to unlock the next mission for me.
