I suppose I might as well talk about Batman video games here.
Arkham Knight is fun - when it actually works. I've had to reinstall it three times so far because of the game suddenly declaring that it's corrupted and refusing to work. And this is on PS4, too, so they don't even have the excuse of it being a bad port. Unbelievable.
I can offer more complete thoughts on Telltale's new Batman game. It's good! It's my first Telltale game, but from what I've read online, it is more or less the same as any other Telltale game from a technical perspective, and it does have its own share of annoying bugs and glitches, although I can't bring myself to complain about that, given my current struggles with
Arkham Knight. My favorite part is actually how it puts the focus on Bruce Wayne rather than Batman. It makes a lot of sense when you consider that the action scenes, although cool-looking, are of course just QTEs. There's no point in trying to compete with the
Arkham series with that, so they don't. The real meat of the game is how you handle your personal and professional life as Bruce, and to that end, there's plenty of sharp dialogue, difficult decision-making, and rich character development. The one thing I will criticize it for, beyond the aforementioned technical issues, is that there are quite a few moments in the story that don't really make sense or aren't properly explained. But that's just a minor issue. I enjoyed this a lot, and I'd be delighted to see a second season.
