Batman: Arkham Knight is an amazing game but with tons of missteps and missed potential. In many ways this is the apex of the series with probably the best Batman has felt, some really great side quests, and a great Batman story. Like my god the ending with the Joker was amazing but in order to get to all of these great things there's soo much padding and CAR. LIKE THERES SO MUCH BATMOBILE. The Batmobile is fun to control but it never feels implemented in fully satisfying or coherent ways. For general traversal just gliding is better and in missions it just feels like you're always hitting a roadblock until you open a door for your car or something.
This game reveals who the most insidious Batman villain is and no its no the Joker its the FUCKING RIDDLER. LOCKING THE GAMES TRUE ENDING BEHIND GETTING EVERY RIDDLER TROPHY IS GENUINLY THE WORST DECISION EVER. Imagine if in order to get the true ending of BOTW you had to get ever Korok Seed and shrine and so on. Thankfully it's just a cutscene so I just looked it up after but it's so demoralizing having done literally every other side quest and DLC in the game only for it to be "Riddle me this Batman where do you keep your Little Caesars and lukewarm water?" 200 times to get the true ending.
The writing is also all over the place at times. For every great moment like the Joker scene at the end there's the mishandling of Red Hoods character and it just leaves an inconsistent story with high highs and low lows. I wish there was more Scarecrow as despite being the main antagonist of this game and always stealing the show when on screen in both this and Asylum, he just feels so underutilized.
I think I would have liked this game more than I did City if this game just had a little more focus on what it wanted to do and less padding with Car and Riddler and random militia outpost.

This is that one 2 out of 10 that I am ride or die for just because of the circumstances of when I played.
A couple years ago, me and a friend streamed this game on Twitch and I had accidentally forgot to get the translated rom but I decided to roll with it anyway because I thought it was funnier. The entire game was me playing and my friend frantically trying to translate and walk me through whatever freaky FE1 shit was happening. Neither of us knew Japanese so every time we got a new character we just made up the name on the spot which led to lots of hilarity. We never used save states and we rolled with the permadeath which really allowed the game to shine whenever a character would die and suddenly we had lost "Eminem our best mage."
I will never forget when one time on some random map my army suddenly got jumped by near infinite ambush reinforcements and my only option was to run some random mage who I had named Fumo all the way over to Marth and emergency warp staff (which had unlimited range in FE1) him to the capture point and just barely making it out before even more of my army died. I was also raided by a friend who is a much bigger streamer so for like 2 minutes I was the #1 Fire Emblem streamer on Twitch which is kinda chill. Probably one of my favorite gaming experiences in my entire life and I couldn't read a single thing.

This was how I first beat Mario 64. I know it's a bit cheating because it completely changes how the game is played but it made me fall in love with Mario 64, a game I usually otherwise dislike.
The mod as of the time writing this is fantastic. It features 3 playable characters being Mega Man X, First Armor X, and Vile with each of them being completely faithful in how they feel to their main series counterparts. The attention to detail with each of their move sets is astonishing, with First Armor X and Vile feeling ripped straight out of Maverick Hunter X.
Genuinely one of the best mods for a video game ever and my preferred way of playing SM64 from now on. The movement just feels that good. I hope the Dev continues to add more as I'd love to see Zero, Axl, and X's other armors one day if possible.
