Not sure anybody has said it doesn't provide a sense of closure. Obviously the 100% ending would by the final one, as it would tie all loose ends, such as Riddler.

Was around 54 GB total for me with patch, plus about a gig each for Scarecrow missions and Harley Quinn story stuff.
About five hours and twenty minutes.
16 GB.
Does 100% of side missions for the other ending include all the Riddler stuff? Won't get it if so. And are we saying the ending doesn't change at 100%, but rather unlocks another ending? So you don't miss anything by completing the story missions before finishing all side missions?

The skidding/revving sound of the Batmobile never gets old in my Astros.

Shiii, hope I finish in time!
Any word on the difficulty? I haven't really had time to read through the reviews. I've played all the Batman games and did all the challenge rooms - just bump it to hard?
I played the entire game on hard, didn't actually notice a difference. Hard doesn't turn off counter icons. Maybe you take more damage from hits/shots.

Whoa, whoa, it unlocks in less than an hour? When I checked the Steam counter earlier today it said it'd unlock 20 hours from writing of this message. I guess it was bugged or something. Cool, a lovely surprise 
I posted the following in the other thread - may be useful for folk in this thread too. Ive had the game since saturday and probably played it 12-15 hours.
This is just my opinion obviously - one person has already harped up saying they disagree specifically about the batmobile. But anyway. This is the level of excitement i'm at now after playing all day today and a bit in the last couple of days.
[edit - re above, traditionally in Rocksteady Arkham games, New Game + is where counter icons are turned off.
Difficulty is good. Fistfights always seem pretty easy, though i'm seasoned at Freeflow. Although a couple of stealth segments and Barmobile bits have been quite tough.]

so is it confirmed that the NVidia codes dont get the harley quinn dlc yet? I have seen some people say it was a separate code or something...but then that package ID method shows them the same as a normal steam copy
I am not gonna be able to play this the first day
Looks like a few people have completed this.
Without spoilers, is there any sort of upgrade system where upgrade tasks are missible and subsequent upgrades are locked out unless you play story mode again?
I'm speaking mainly in reference to Arkham Origins' wonky Dark Knight upgrades where you had to do tasks in a certain order and some were only do-able story mode in certain places to which you couldn't backtrack. That was super stupid.
Just want an idea if I can go in and play worry free about this or I should seek out a playthrough guide first.

How does using a vpn to play it early work? Sorry if that's not allowed here, but I never considered that. If it unlocked at a reasonable time, like midnight, I wouldn't care, but it's BS I have to wait til half the day is over.

I haven't seen anything that's locked to certain Most Wanted missions etc. You won't have access to certain things unless you progress through the story as usual.
You get a pretty absurd amount of upgrade points completing side missions. I'd recommend people dump a solid amount of points into the batmobiles combat capabilities since you have to sit through that shit so much. It will at least make it bearable.

Did you write that to me? I don't like playing VPN tricks with paid services. Even if it's allowed here, if I make a habit of it I may someday step on toes that will ban my accounts for VPN things.
No was asking the other people here who were discussing it.

So from what I've read, hard mode doesn't remove the counter icons. For anyone that has the game, is it possible to turn it off through the option menu? I always found the icons in the previous games distracting which is why I always played on hard.

The only reason they would ban you would be for VPN into a foreign store to take advantage of other countries discounts. I've VPN'd(to play early) for the better part of 4 years now and have had 0 issues each and every time.

Edit: Oh and i just saw the thread title. Awesome.
Thank you very much. 16GB for PlayGO is bigger than what i hoped. I hope it will be ready by the time it unlocks. Getting it now.

Don't remember if I replied in the review topic but I think that might be the case because yeah, the DLC stuff seems to be a separate code going by posts of people who bought the game through GMG and Nuuvem. We'll find out soon enough though.

Well, if I ever feel like I'm being screwed over with release dates I might do VPN, but there's no point in now when it comes so soon. Thanks for advice anyway.

My goodness, the time has finally arrived. This game has been my most anticipated title since it was announced, and it's preloaded and ready to go in less than 10 minutes. What a time to be alive.
...aaaaand of course, great OT.

Which country do you connect to, to play early? On VPN
Hyrule Warrior

Wait, I just noticed, I went to the steam page for Batman, and it says unlocks in approximately 6 hours, which is midnight my local time. Around 10am earlier today, it said it wasn't unlocking for over 24 hours, but maybe they updated the time? Using a VPN might not matter anymore if it's unlocking at midnight after all.

European countries, try the UK.

so, its a separate thing even if you buy it directly off steam? If you check the package ID, it shows it as the exact same thing as buying it right from the steam store.
I guess it doesnt really matter now, we will see in 7 minutes haha

Yeah, it can't hurt to wait. That said, you really have nothing to worry about. I'll be VPN'ing when I get home so I can unlock and play immediately. But again, it can't hurt to wait.
Hero_of_the_Day

Yeah, they changed the time earlier today. It should be in 5 hours and 5 minutes from now in the US. If you use VPN to go through the UK, it's in 5 minutes, in theory.

It seems it's still encrypted
Because it isn't midnight yet. Wait 6 or so minutes.

There's still five minutes to go until it unlocks.
