I am going to admit that despite the mostly negative attention that Gotham Knights has received, there's apart of me that was very curious about it and so I took a chance it and...I lasted a whole two hours before I couldn't take any more of.

Now, I didn't think the game was bad no, Gotham Knight commits the sin of being utterly boring. In the opening moments of the game, I was having fun learning the mechanics and I did a couple nights of patrol and this is where the fun wore off. It wore off because on the two nights I was out on patrol, you just did the same busy work each time. Yes, it was just busy work, like in Arkham Origins but worse. See, the map has these white triangles that represent various crimes in progress that you can stop but these are ultimately meaningless.

That's because there are more important crimes in progress, ones that have recommended levels and difficulty tied to them. Examples are rescuing civilians that have been kidnapped and have bombs attached to them, stopping criminals trying to break out other criminals that are being transports and so on. I did some of these on my first night of patrol, came back for the second night and had more of the same ones just in different locations and I just find that really boring. Like with Arkham City and Arkham Origins, I just want to focus on the main story and do side stuff after that. But, Gotham Knights makes you grind out a bunch of side crap just to be able to reach the next main story point and I am not a fan of that.

The other thing I don't like is how experience is character based. The first night I went out as Batgirl and I reached level two. The second night I went out at Nightwing and managed to get him to level four. But, if I were to go out again as Batgirl, she'd still be level two. You have four characters that someone can play as and you expect them to level each one of them individually? No, that's really stupid. Had the game actually kept me interested, I would have just played the whole thing as Nightwing and not worried about the others.

A small combat related thing. I mentioned before that Gotham Knights was developed by WB Montreal, the same ones behind Arkham Origins. So, tell me why, when it comes to combat, did they remove the counter? Yea, you can't counter enemy attacks, you can only evade them and I think that's stupid considering that all four of these character were trained by Batman.

That is just my experience with the couple of hours I spent with Gotham Knights. I think it's boring and not worth the time.

In relation to the fireworks wizard post and the Lord of the Rings part comp. The party composition for The Hobbit is just as crazy if not more.

It goes

Dwarf fighter

Halfling rogue

And occasionally that same fucking aasimar wizard.

I SO WANT TO SEE MORE OF YOUR NIGHTWINGS MIMIC THE SKY THEY WERE BORN UNDER.

Like, that means NightWings could have had BEAUTIFUL freckled faces, or imagine if one was born under a meteor shower.

My Dear you're thinking too small.

Nightwing eggs are wired to hatch sometime during the night so a nightwing born midday is basically impossible. But at most, there may be times a nightwing hatches 'too early' or 'too late' in the night, and hatching either during a sunrise or sunset.

Sure the hatchling completely loses their chance to have any sort of nightwing powers but- imagine the beauty.

i was extremely sleep deprived yesterday when i discovered the dragon survival mod which was LIFE CHANGING when you're on three hours of sleep so of course i made a whole custom forest dragon texture in one day about it. and. just for fun, some concept art i made for it:

#aka i was too tired to trust myself to speak coherently with clients or make commission work up to my standards. but i need to be productive #or ill die #my art #minecraft #mineblr #dragon #dragonsona #of sorts #forest dragon #earth dragon #lush cave #mods in the video tht are noticable btw: complimentary reimagined shaders. alex's mobs. ambient sounds 5. mizuno 16 craft resource pack.#and a really cool seed i found online :]#video #NOT my model but im going to tag it as #my model #since it's 3D work!! actual model made by blackaures who made the mod and also some SICK ass dragon art #also. patreon gets to see the other 3 pages of concept art i made for this later today! :] wink wink nudge. coughs #sorry i need to shill #um. anyways #no name for this dragon yet. i do know it steals livestock from too-small village/illager pens #to give them enriched lives in its expansive cave farm #i'd like to come back to this eventually and touch up the wing design since the glowing spots didnt really shake out

best part about the D&D movie is how chris pine is EXPLICITLY the party's bard and then never casts a single bard spell. this man is absolutely USELESS if he can't open his mouth and i can't imagine the character any other way. flawless writing no notes

#literally cannot remember the character's name he's just chris pine #dungeons and dungeons #dnd #dungeons and dragons honor among thieves #what is the tag for this movie?????#honor among thieves #wynn speaks

I recently play Batman: Arkham City, a game that I first played back when it came out on the PS3, and so now I just want to talk about my recent experience with the game as it's been so long that this felt like the first time I played it.

Things I Liked:

The true feeling of being Batman

The sound effects they added when you're beating on criminals really puts weight into every single punch and kick.

The gadgets that also add to making you feel like Batman. There are so many different ways you can use them in any situation that the game throws your way.

Zipping and/or gliding around is such a fun feeling.

Really good enemy progression. You have basic melee thugs, thugs with guns that you shouldn't approach from the front, thugs wearing body armor that you have to stun first, thugs with edged weapons that require a special dodge, bigger thugs that require the ultra stun a few times, thugs with nightvision goggles that didn't really help them, thugs that place mines, bigger thugs with shields that require a different kind of stun and so on. The enemy progression is done so well.

The few boss fights were not as bad as I was expecting, with the exception of one.

The free flow combat just works so well. Having Batman just float from enemy to enemy in groups is just so nice.

The Catwoman sections were really nice as she plays so much different from Batman, it was nice having her sections breaking up the Batman sections.

Getting to play as Robin in the beginning of the Harley Quinn's Revenge DLC was very fun.

Things I Did Not Like:

The Trials Of The Demon. I absolutely hated this because of the going from doing a dive bomb to having to pull up because sometimes the controls just fought me and I died over and over in this part. Easily the worst part of the game for me.

The many times of having to be grappling or gliding around playing hot or cold with a variety of things. Whether I was tracking a signal or tracking the coldest part of Gotham to locate Mr. Freeze. It wouldn't be so annoying if it happened like twice but, it happens like four or five times and just got annoying. It honestly felt like padding the game's run time with how much they make you do this.

The final fight against Clayface was really frustrating because of the fact that in the second phase, Clayface has an attack that happens so fast after another attack that there is no possible way to be able to dodge it. I think that it's not fair that you are stuck taking this damage because it's not avoidable.

Overall, Arkham City is a classic and is a must play for anyone, especially if you're a Batman fan. Arkham City is a good an enjoyable game that is definitely worth playing.
