The amount of stuff this game throws at you in just half an hour is honestly crazy and almost overwhelming.

Dunkey's got a good eye for games I guess. This game looks gorgeous. I wish I could play it on a CRT.

I wonder if the bubble double jump is intended or something to be used for sequence break, though.

Generally falls into the same trappings of the sequel, although in a smaller scale so it's actually enjoyable. I might have enjoyed it more if I hadn't started with Arkham Knight, but welp. I guess in 2011 it 'was' one of the best open world games around.

In fact, I think I even missed some of the bloat of the next game. The games urges you on with the main story and I never had too much chance to explore for sidequests without feeling I was straying too much from my objective. Didn't help that I finished the game and didn't even know you could unlock the ability to launch yourself to glide through the city, although the PS4 version optimization is so bad that wasn't something I enjoyed doing very much.

The lack of gadget based exploration, which was abundant in Asylum, was a shame too. A lot of the times it felt like the game was just wasting my time, especially with the batclaw raft parts.

The soundtrack kicks ass, though. Everytime it went while I was crouching around choking bad guys it hyped me through the roof.
