So for those who has not played the game you have been warned.

Get this. The Batman... you won't believe it... is Bruce Wayne.

Well, I'm actually disappointed on some of the decisions. I felt like it was a cop out. I also don't like the identity of Arkham Knight. They lied.

It's a Batman game, just not like the ones before it and what we're used to. Seems too fast-paced, in my opinion; probably catering to this generations need for a bunch of action in a short span of time.

So I'm done with the game....

I'm upset. I fucking hated that shit.

Now for the good before the bad: The Joker mentality was a great concept. I loved it. I loved seeing Joker randomly appear in different places, talking to me, tormenting me. That shit was great.

I loved some of the choices they made. Killing Ivy? Did not expect that. Killing Barbara? I was upset, I was so upset, and I wanted to kill Scarecrow but damn they went out of the way and made decisions I didn't expect.

Now for the Bad: Some of those decisions were copped out. Barbara being alive? Come on now. Like there was no explanation other than "Fear Toxin". Come on lol that's just a cop out. Jason Todd? Really? He was fucking Arkham Knight? Another god damn cop out. Also Thanks Rocksteady for lying to us saying it's an original character.

No it wasn't, he was Jason Todd. That's not original.

What really pisses me off, is seeing how quickly Jim folded on Batman. Ratted him out QUICK. Gave Scarecrow information and shit. Like damn. This is why I always liked Batman not having many people know who he is because EVERYONE can become a liability. Ya ya, you can say it's because Scarecrow threatened his daughter, but fuck man, this is Barbara Gordon. She shouldn't have been taken so damn easily. I've read comics where she took out highly trained assassins while still in her wheel chair. She's bad ass.

Then, there was the biggest thing that ticked me off. The fact that everyone finds out he's Bruce Wayne. Really? Why is it that must be a thing now? Batman is great because he can overcome shit, he can overcome the odds. That is what he is. He is a symbol of fear, and will. He finds a fucking way. This just felt like a slap to the face of Batman fans all around.

Throughout this game I felt like I was playing Batman Dark Knight Rises, except instead of Bane I'm fighting against Jason Todd. This shit felt lazy as hell. Everything about this ticked me off. Hell the damn trailer where Thomas Wayne is telling his son to forever protect the city felt like a lie.

Then there is that 100% ending. God don't make me laugh it didn't revert anything. It didn't go "Well, it was just the toxin so don't worry" like they did with Barbara. Nope, just some random fucker on a rooftop and that was it.

Fuck this game.
