Yep the major problem and disappointment with the batmobile it was that it didn't have a upgrade tree like Batman. A missed opportunity since the batman gameplay was fully matured. The way you started the gameplay with the batmobile it's the way you finish it. And seeing they put so much of the game around it, by the half of the game it's starting to get old. They should have put different gadget and weapons and enemies type through the game to keep it always fresh. Or make it a smaller part of the game.

I don't know. Having played both Batgirl and Red Hood, his guns definitely feel different from the batarangs. They fire faster, the bullets fly straight as opposed to curving like the batarangs, meaning it's easier to aim over long distances. The batarangs are infinite, while the guns have to be reloaded(which ties in to some of Red Hoods skill to reaload instantly) Just some things I noticed.

The game isn't quite that bad. With the performance of the game being not great, it was still manageable to play and have fun. The story was great up to a certain point but felt so anti-climatic with certain parts and some feeling forced that could've easily been avoidable. The visual of the game were not great but not terrible. The gameplay feels sluggish at times such as the split second when waiting to grab a stunned enemy, but overall felt great with having different abilities to use and unique combos and the challenge of having to use timed strikes perfectly. If you're wanting to buy this game because you think it's an arkham successor, this isn't the game for you. However, if you want to play and explore the batman family and fight criminals to save gotham, this game is for you. Again, this is just the early stages of the game and I'm sure there will be major updates and fixes to make the game they intended for their audience.

I will say the New Game+ is definitely way better than the base game. At that point the characters actually feel different. Nightwing being great at fast-paced, freeflow combat. Red Hood deals a bunch of damage but is slower, and his gun is insane. Batgirl feels the most like Batman from the Arkham Series. Robin is the best for stealth/predator because of his size/speed. This game feels like Batman Arkham Origins in terms of combat (especially if you take off Enemy Health Bars in the "UI"). And it makes sense considering both are published by the same studio. If you're a big Comic Book/Story Fan this game is for you. If you are an Arkham fan and want more Freeflow combat this game is for you. If you are an RPG/Souls player, I would recommend Valhalla over Gotham Knights lol. If anything, this game has made me appreciate Origins more. Just like Origins, the story is great, but the gameplay seems to lack/play it safe.

I've played the game nonstop since it came out and I loved it, I've mostly played as Jason and I can tell the difference when I jump to another characters. Grayson can hop between enemies with ease and his ranged attack comes out slow and are mostly to interrupt shooters, Batgirl is inbtween the two with a beat down approach and quick batarang throws, Robin does more AOE and Elemental damage while his ranged attacks don't don't too much damage. Locking the traversal behind the Knighthood progression is annoying, and the stability is very annoying but underneath it, it's actually a pretty fun game.

The one thing i find silly is that their unique travel mechanics are locked behind a skill tree. It makes sense for some of them, since it’s like oh you need expertise to engineer this thing, but batgirl not knowing how to glide, for example seemed weird

Gotham Knights is the other side of Saints Row's coin. Saints Row is a hollow, manufactured feeling product. Gotham Knights is full of passion but misses the mark. Its good ideas feel hollow despite the clear intentions on the part of the devs. You can tell they tried and that there's heart put into it (unlike Saints Row), but it falls short. The combat is fun but shallow and traversal for everyone except Batgirl feels off. Graphically it's good but not what you'd expect out of a triple A title (although the lighting system is legitimately fantastic). It's got an awful and overly complicated gear system and ugly, clunky UI. And lack of a performance mode is strange. Overall the game feels floaty and unpolished. But there's so much there to work with and build from. It's really not as bad as some of these reviews suggest. There's fun to be had, and the story does a lot of heavy lifting. Just temper expectations and you'll have a good time. This reminds me of the first Assassin's Creed. Great ideas, great concept, mediocre execution. But a sequel could really nail it.

I don’t think the low frame rate on its own is the reason people dismiss the game when they see the gameplay. AAA games are expected to make up for what they lack in creativity in technical quality. You brought up red dead redemption 2s frame rate as an example of a game that doesn’t need a high frame rate to be good but red dead redemption 2 was one of the most impressive looking games of the 8th generation. It still was very technically impressive. Arkham knight was able to look infinitely better than Gotham Knights at 30fps on a base ps4 and that game was built in unreal engine 3. Seeing the low frame rate and dismissing the game does not mean that refuse to play every game that doesn’t have a high frame rate. For many it may simply be a refusal to give one’s money to big game studios when they are being lazy.

To be fair, the game does state that in order for more premeditated crimes to show up the next night. You have to collect clues by stopping small crimes. Extra larger crime operations will even show up during the same night depending on the amount of clues you collect. So while you start with three large crime operations, there's a good chance five or so will pop up if you collect more clues. But as you said, it is rather tedious but as you progress the story line. More unique small crimes will show up with some even set up to ambush you.

5:40 I think the complaint about how long it takes to get knighthood is a little exaggerated. If you interrogate an informant goon it will give you a new event to do. I think it caps out at 5-6 per knight and it makes enough clues to max out the next night after the first, took me a little under an hour for each of them. But I assume it can happen naturally over time if it’s not your main goal.

Red hood cannot take them out, however in a fight he can grab the bigger enemies and grab them place a mine on it and then can shoot it to detonate it. No other character can do that. ......failing to see how they are the same. That's just me I guess *shrugs*

It adds a risk/reward element where you can gain the rewards for another stopped crime but suffer the penalties of being defeated if you fail.

It’s really interesting when certain games come out and you really get to see just what kind of gamer a person, or yourself, is. Technical issues yeah, there’s plenty and that’s something that can usually be fixed or adjusted, valid complaints Ofcourse, but the main issue I see people have is that it’s not arkham and it’s the dumbest thing ever. Judge the game for what it is and is trying to be not what you want it to be because then you’re as bias as anyone that likes the game just because it’s a Batman game. For me it’s been super fun, I’ve enjoyed the combat, the banter, the running around the city with my friend and doing cool stuff together, it’s checked a lot of boxes for me, watching gameplay had me concerned I wouldn’t like the combat but for me it felt way more fluid playing it and I’m still getting comfortable with the system and attacks. You can like what you like or don’t but don’t spread misinformation or bash the game for things it’s not tryna do. The chars definitely have a different feel even from the start of the game like if you really wanna be that way go play Arkham knight and press the same buttons with those chars and really ask yourself does it just look different or actually feel different. People already corrected the crimes thing and needing to interrogate which was a massive oversight in trying to upplay the “grind”. The game is very intentional with its use of the belfry and for me it’s added to the immersion because you do what you do and you go back to gear up and prep for the next night and come back with better stuff. It’s not that big a wait between, a lot of these complaints just feel so nitpicky and biased but you’re gonna feel however you feel at the end of the day. I’ve had these arguments with people miscalling naruto shinobi strikers thinking it’s a xenoverse 2 clone when it’s not trying to be, so it’s funny I’m in a similar situation with this game. But yeah go into it with a fresh mindset and see it for what it is and you might not be as disappointed as you think. Tech issues aside they’ve really got something goin here and I hope they expand on and polish it up even more, sorry so long. 😅

Completely agree for the most part but to the "Capped 30 FPS does not make a bad game" point. Two of the three examples you gave (RDR2 & The Witcher) will/have gotten 60 FPS updates in order to bring them forward into the modern era. The only reason Breath of the Wild hasn't gotten an update like that is due to the Switch hardware limitations. The fact that a brand new game is being released capped at 30 fps in 2022 is not really acceptable anymore, especially since the game doesn't visually warrant that cap.

One of the first missions you’re sneaking through GCPD and hear two cops talking. They’re saying how this freak they took in did something awful outside of one of their kids schools and one of the cops says something like “I’d pay money to get some alone time with that freak” but he gets talked down and decides not to. These are the evil corrupt Gotham police? They’re making the morally and professionally correct decision based on their rules while they’re alone in the GCPD? It was just really weird

Standing on it's own, for anyone that enjoys the batfamily and riding around at night solving crimes as their favorite character, this game is for you. It's dynamic enough, and filled with enough side content to give you a chance to really experience what reading those comics were like all those years ago.

It’s really not that bad dawg not every game had to expand the genre and redefine something. They are videogames. It’s not that deep

To be honest it isn't a bad game. I bought the deluxe edition and while I can say that unless you're a Bat Family fan and know what you're getting from the game then £70 is steep. But I am enjoying the game. I've gotten what I was expecting from it and a little more to be honest. Some reviews are being overly harsh while other independent channels are bringing up actual deserved criticisms.

The combat looks more like it was based on the Arkham series (which, yes, means it looks like the spiderman games but that's also because they got the combat system FROM THE ARKHAM GAMES)

Yep. The combat isn't inspired by Spider-man, Spider-man's combat is inspired by Arkham Asylum.

I love the look and gameplay style this game is trying to do. It does look bugged, so I'll wait. But I can see myself enjoying it when it's working.

My take: Some top-exec’s said “Make a mobile Batman game” and halfway through they realized the amount of backlash it would generate = that’s why optimization is poor, the world seems dull and “flat”, THE UI??? And the tedious amounts of grind/materials (traces of a microtransaction system)

You do not have to reset the night to get more premeditated crimes, you just interrogate the enemies with question marks above their heads and new ones appear in the city. Knighthood can literally be completed in one night

I was really excited when I saw this game and it certainly has some serious rough spots and I think I will get it but I'm going to wait on it for now. The problem is just how A-MAZ-ING the last batman game was and it was yeears ago now, there's some big shoes this game has to fill regardless if it's not an arkham game. Arkham Origins was NOT a bad game and I really kinda expected more from WBM after that.

The reason Gotham Knights isnt as good as Arkham Orgins is because Rocksteady gave WBM all their buildings/layouts/etc to make Orgins and now they dont have that its pretty shit compared to Orgins cause with Orgins they had to sorta match what they had with this they had a brand new slate to work on and didnt know what they were doing as much as they did before. 🤷♀️

2:25 The issue of 30fps is that it isn't stable at 30fps. The game regularly on ALL consoles drops below 30fps which is crazy. If it was a solid 30fps all the time I don't think people would care a whole ton.

I agree with most of what was said, but I do think the characters feel different enough at the beginning. Their basic attacks are the same I think because they didn't want to overcomplicate controls for each character, but I felt major differences fighting with Nightwing versus Red Hood (for example) almost immediately. It's not totally fair to assess them by punching the air lol Loved this video though. Excited for future game updates

So they said the performance was capped to 30fps on consoles because of the co op, but yet in singleplayer on a PC with specs FAR above any console, the performance is barely hanging in there? Sheesh.

I’ve actually really been enjoying this game so far. I personally don’t care about bugs as long as their not game braking. Yes, the performance sucks, however, all games used to run like this only 5 years ago so when you think about it, it shouldn’t ruin your whole experience. I’m a huge Batman fan so I decided to buy this game at launch but if you wait for a sale and some patches then you’ll most likely enjoy this game

There is also fast travel, that is pretty easy to unlock. :D You can always interrogate someone, to get even more crimes. Every small crime got someone to interrogate. Just scan the thugs before attacking them, grab the one with a questionmark above and interrogate him. I personally love this game because it is also a roleplay game and I actually feel like patroling through the City, solving crimes, finding connections or even bigger crimes. I really love koop as well. I can look above a bunch of small Problems because we have fun with the game and it runs pretty well. Atleast for us. We have no issues, lags, bugs or crashes.

Nah bro. I seriously cant believe you dont get the 30 fps complaints. You know what all those games you mentioned had in common? They could all easily do 60 fps on ps5. When people say its 2022 games have to be 60fps they dont mean for the ps4 or for the switch. They mean for the godamn 500 sony gaming computer that was marketed to be 16x stronger than the previous one. I didnt expect bayonetta 3 to be 60 fps because i knew that was a switch game. Same with zelda and astral chain. I would love to play those games at 60 but i know i wont. But when you make a game that looks significantly worse than previous iterations of the same city and you tell me than on brand new hardware it will run at 30 fps i will dimiss it

Co-op worked from the get go for my friend and I on Steam, so I guess it was the lucky few it worked for =) Also the further you get into the game, the more premeditated crimes are available, I have seen 5-8 crimes in progress, with co-op it's even faster as you can take one each and just do a round on the map. So it's not as tedious as it might seem at first =) With New Game+, choose a new character and you can do it while doing the main/side missions. Also AI hiding, notice the icons over their heads, which is "fear" so they run away and hide from you etc. Characters do actually play differently, once you unlock abilities, again. I appreciate people doing Reviews/Previews of games, but most of the time, it seems like people do not really take the time to learn about the mechanics, and just give it a poor review, or bash things that they don't try and learn =) To me it seems like you, and other youtubers/streamers go into the game already biased with negativity, and then make a video about it. I think it's quite sad, and it's a reason why I always play games myself to make up my own mind. Issue comes down to when people have higher number of viewers, and keeping them from playing a good/decent game (not just gotham knights) spreading false information, or biased information.

Calling it false information is a reach. Just because a system is obtuse and not figured out in the first 5 hours of gameplay doesn’t mean the reviewer is “spreading false information.” Chances are high many people didn’t figure that out until grinding the basic abilities, aka it was represented accurately. All that aside the game just runs like ass so it doesn’t matter how mediocrely satisfying the systems eventually become for those of you with low expectations.
