I’d always thought it was a bit weird that batman’s iconic vehicles weren’t available in the previous games.

For me, the answer is yes to both questions. Maybe I’m just biased because Batman is goddamn cool, but I’d much rather play Arkham: Origins than any Assassin’s Creed or Far Cry, and if you disagree I fundamentally distrust you as a person.īasically what it boils down to is: do you like the batmobile? Both as a concept (do you see it as an integral piece of batman’s toolkit) and as a gameplay mechanic (do you enjoy how it controls in this specific game). I think all four of these games are, at the very least, pretty good, especially when put up against pretty much any other open world game. Let me preface that claim by saying that City is still, imo, a very good game. … MoreĪlright, so with the preamble out of the way, let’s address my absurd claim that this is a better game than Arkham City. Even during the most graphically intense sequences I never dropped lower than 50 fps, which is no problem at all with G-Sync.Īlright, so with the preamble out of the way, let’s address my absurd claim that this is a better game than Arkham City.

No enemies clipping through the floor, or cars spawning inside each other. Other than a single crash to desktop and a single instance in which Batman got stuck on a piece of level geometry during the blimp sequence causing me to reload the last checkpoint I’ve had zero performance issues or bugs.
BATMAN ARKHAM KNIGHT CLOUDBURST TANK PC
I remember hearing at launch that the PC port was a disaster, but that seems to have been ironed out in the intervening years, or perhaps I’m just incredibly lucky. Truly a technical marvel on a good PC with all the bells and whistles enabled. It’s really the first game since I played Cyberpunk last year that’s made me consistently mutter to myself about how good it looks. Good lord does this game still look amazing. It’s all to the good though, because six years ago I did not have an ultra-wide 1440p 120hz monitor and a GTX 3070.

It’s six years old and I’m just now playing it, partially because of the general negativity from fans, partially because I’m one of the people that actually played Arkham: Origins (and enjoyed it) and felt I needed a break from Batman games at the time. This game is the perfect example of why you shouldn’t listen to the crowd.
