I more or less quit AO right before the Firefly fight because I got so tired of how monotonous, repetitious and generally just uninspired the game felt (imo) in comparison to previous iterations. Still, I do love Mr. Freeze - do we have any reassurance that this won't just be a half-baked rehash of the AC Mr. Freeze fight with little to no story? If that isn't the case, I might suck it up and beat the AO campaign.
So, we're no at the point where people are happy that a Season Pass contains actual DLCs?
The BAO SP is especialy dissappointing. Two short story DLCs but mainly a handful of skins.
5 Euro are alright, but I am shocked that you bought it without knowing that it contains more than skins and a short DLC.

You almost finished the Game. Maybe 45 minutes left after that fight.
I didnt really think it was uninspired though. It is just almost exactly the same like Arkham City. The one thing I just didnt like about Origins is, that there are almost no memorable places. In AC you had the Iceberg Lounge e.g. or this Wonderland. In Origins no area is really memorable.
Developers just don't get it. If there's no meat, it's not really worth it. 8-10 hours for $15 is a steal, but ~2-3 hours isn't even worth it to reinstall.
I mean I bought the Pass but it was $5. If I got this news first I wouldn't have even bothered.
Dishonored, Episodes 1 & 2, now that was quality DLC.
Nope, it took e just over an hour too. I guess this will be the same length, but hopefully with it being a new environment, there'll be more to see and do...

I complained that Microsoft fucked this all up. Well, I doubt they can really be solely to blame, but they do seem to have (had?) some pricing policies for Xbox 360 content that shaped the current DLC situation that personally makes it highly unpalatable without sales going on. Not that there's much hard evidence, but noticed how rarely $5 DLC like that showed up, or that many games had DLC be $7 that was free or at least cheaper elsewhere, initially anyway? If Microsoft had allowed more freedom, even if it wasn't the iOS extreme of "do whatever the hell you want" I do think we'd more often see this stuff priced appropriately, like effectively getting it for $5 via buying the season pass.

Any idea when it's supposed to go live? It's not on the Steam store yet (though I have the season pass). There was a big patch a few days ago too, to get ready for it presumably. \
You are. It's the best Arkham game IMO. I say this as someone who has encountered just about every bug it has to offer. Even lost my save near launch. WB have patched the game a number of times since then, it's not like they just told everyone to get fucked and never bothered to fix anything.

Eh, its an ok game but I'd say anyone thats on the fence is better off waiting on a sale or a special edition with everything packed in at this point. It has already been on sale twice for $10, I'm sure itll happen again.

Since WB Games was willing to go all next-gen with Arkham Knight, I wonder if there's any chance we get some kind of Remastered/Definitive Edition for the PS4/X1?
This looks awesome. Big step up from Arkham City's Harley's Revenge.
Screw the haters I had a great time with this game on two platforms with no significant bugs. This game's problem is, and always has been, PR. I'm down for this tonight after work.
