Not just a gacha, even when every of its mechanics is tailored for grinding. Ridiculous limits and restrictions don't hinder the gameplay and fun of wandering around, exploring stunning locations with atmospheric soundtrack - probably the best part of the game. The story is good and has its highlights, there’s characters tailored to every taste and the dynamics between each of them are rather fun. Grinding based on gamble luck and bound by limits designed to take your time and keep you in the game are not. There’s always an illusion of choice - you can choose not to better your characters and their damage, while still enjoying everything else the game offers. Even though updated often and regularly, some of the events feel very similar and can be a bore with their worn-out mechanics. I don't regret playing the game however and with it constantly expanding with new locations I’ll continue doing so for a long while

Greatly atmospheric, extremely satisfying combat and plethora of mechanics to it to use, as well as meticulously crafted map that’s fun to traverse and see how locations of are connected. Thanks to it makes it feel alive, expansive and more open, while not exactly being open-world. The boss fights were creative in presentation and objective, although the ending part of it suffers from the same tedious big guy -> mob wave -> big guy mechanic. Scarecrow parts are absolutely phenomenal and the psychological dive into Batman’s mind thanks to Asylum setting was just fantastic

Intricately layered web of Gotham villains and their squabbles, with us being thrown into the center of it all. Super fun open world, smooth gadget use, even smoother and more satisfying combat, as well as satisfaction of another form with the Catwoman gameplay. The plot tied itself pretty damn well in the end, pointing out how Batman, while being the knight of Gotham, essentially created the darkness that casts its shadow upon it in the form of Joker. You won’t want to miss the audio message playing during the credits!
