>We finally get to play against the Court of Owls
>No Batman
>Just this soulless asset flip of Knight tailor made for 2 player coop and microtransaction/grind
>Even if they reboot the series with a new timeline the Court of Owls and it's aesthetics, locations, lore, Talons,... will be wasted in this soulless Arkhamlands coop trash and putting them again in a proper Batman game will never be the same, will never feel like the first encounter
>Owls are bats natural predator, which is also a clear allegory used to represent the struggle of Batman in fighting the Owls
>WB Monstreal goes full retard and decide to use the most beloved one trick pony of The New 52 for... this...
>It will get a pass because fanboys are starved since 2015 for Batman games and will buy this shit
>More gaas trash will release, Batman games will become rpg-lite like it already happened for Assassin's Creed
>Screencap this: Batman was kidnapped and converted into a Talon, they want to successfully pull a Arkham Knight
We just witnessed the end of a franchise. Might aswell call it (non) Batman: Gotham Odyssey
I can't believe they turned it into an rpg. I was so excited for it but they just turned it into a shitty rpg that they pretty much only made to milk money out of people with microtransactions.
It ended with Knight tho.
Now this does look bad but it's more spitting on the coffin than killing it.
Huh anyone cared about any Batman game after Arkham Asylum?
SUICIDE SQUAD WILL BE SHIT

Yeah, which is why I'm surprised this isn't a reboot
We knew man
I unironically feel remorse for the Arkham fanbase who waited almost five years for this reveal
Was the reveal actually that bad, or is this just another knee jerk reaction from Zig Forums?
>>No Batman
Obviously not actually dead. Captured by the Court of Owls or faked his death to go into hiding for now.
No Batman no buy
That Bruce Wayne is gorgeous
People are mad because it's not a sequel to Arkham Knight. People wanted something like Batman Beyond.
Wasn't something like that originally planned but then canned?
I guess it looks fine overall, but I'm pretty disappointed. It looks worse than Arkham Knight (Rocksteady has amazing art team), both in environment and there's been some glitchy animations, but maybe they'll fix that.
What really bothered me was the leveled enemies and "play your own way!" which basically means beat people up or use shitty stealth and a bunch of skill trees. The whole thing has that stench of live service game with some Warner Bros. bullshit attached so I was not really happy about it. Also if you have to design a game for co-op, for sure you need to design it in a different way, with more open level enviroments, less story and cool stuff (like Rocksteady fucking with you, or having surprises like manbat). The writing was also cringy and full of quips, as opposed to Arkhams Joker and other stuff for example.
I am a big Arkham fan, but I think it was mostly because of he effort Rocksteady puts into making a really polished, great single player games full of surprises and tiny little details. It seems like this won't be that. Hopefully Suicide Squad isn't shit or live service game as rumored.
There was a Damian Wayne game at development that would be set 30 years after Arkham Knight and use the nemesis system from Shadow of Mordor/War games. Would have been thousand times better.
The nemesis system is utter fucking shit and whoever came up with it needs to be gutted with a rusty spoon.
It's not from Rocksteady.
>It's a game as a service
You tell me
I wanted them not to touch the fucking Court of Owls until they rebooted the series
>light rpg
why do they always add this shit ? No I don't want to spend 3 hours fighting some nameless mook because he somehow has a bigger number over his head. It's fucking stupid.
It's so that you buy a level booster/Xp Crystal/Rare Gear as a microtransaction to avoid built-in grind. It's the direction Assassin's Creed went 3 years ago with Origins and they won't every go back because Microtransactions are just too profitable. Now the Batman games are going that way.
just wannt put my dick init
>Doom and gloom posting right after a reveal
I stopped playing Arkham after City but you faggots are so damn predictable its uncanny.
I see you brought up no points at all on why it’s supposedly shit. Glad it’s actually a good system. Maybe next batman game will have the nemesis system and be amazing
>We just witnessed the end of a franchise
Nah, that was Origins. This is just debased Necrophillia. And of course they share the same fucking developers.
Wait how isn't it a reboot? Gordon's daughter was a fucking cripple in the Arkham games and Robin was a bald musclehead, not some One Direction twink. Jason Todd has a huge J letter burned into his face.
iI's a reboot you're right
But they also show a wheelchair in batgirls place in this trailer. It's implied she recovered.
She is shown in the clocktower with the wheelchair.
She has regain the ability to walk with some tech
It's not a reboot
You have a fucking brainworm if you don't believe Batman will have to come back halfway or earlier through the game

> WB Games Montreal tells ComicBook.com that, "Gotham Knights is an original story set in DC's Batman Universe and not connected to the Arkham series."
Doesn't even look like Batman just some dudebro.
yeah but not as the main character
imagine actually caring about any of this shit lol
i'm eating tendies and laughing at you nerds rn
Of course he doesn't look like Batman. It's Bruce Wayne
touche
What a fucking dogshit bs crap is even this?
Why? What?
WB games said it's not in the same universe as the Arkham games.
All over Twitter bros. We are good.
