No mention of PC, guess they aren't expecting to have the game fixed by then :/
It had a better story but worse gameplay than Arkham Coconut.

I mean it might include it but Killing Joke was because Barbara was the Comissioner's daughter, Joker had no idea she was Batgirl.

As Sartre noted in his contemplation on Hell in No Exit, the true horror is other members.
Love the design of the Arkham Batgirl.
Awesome. Arkham Origin vibes. Loved WB Montreal's work, on both the main game and the Mr. Freeze origin DLC. Sold.

The ceiling for this is Cold Cold Heart, a 2-3 hour meaty expansion on the usual Arkham formula, but with a new narrative thrust and unique situations exclusive to the DLC. Plus all those lovely new Batgirl animations.
The floor being Harley's Revenge, which was just a waste of time and money.

I seem to remember Barbara Gordon had already retired as Batgirl by the time Killing Joke came along. They were cutting down on sidekicks in the 80s.

Cold, Cold Heart was exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for with Batman DLC. Hopefully this being made by WB Montreal means it'll be good too.
I know this. Still pissed off to see the DLC rolling out. The broken PC game effects a lot of people. To the point where the pulled the PC version from the shelves. And they are still releasing the DLC before the fix this huge problem.
Red Hood was the floor. Could be done in like 5-8 minutes if you know how to take on the "boss battle". At least Harley had her rage mode thing to make her a bit different.
I wouldn't be. They're planning quite a few packs, so the thinking is probably to charge a little bit less for each one. That way it won't exceed the price of the season pass, but also people will be more enticed to buy them freely.
Doesn't mean that it will be extra short on content necessarily.

Game actually works completely fine for me on PC, so it sucks I'll have to wait for this DLC even with the Season Pass. Oh well.

If it's at least 4 hours I'd be happy.
Yeah but they've also got obligations to people who bought those season passes that promises 6 months of post release content.

Arkham Oranges lmao.
I bought the season pass on pc like many others and right now the game is completely unplayable. If I could return the game and the season pass I would.
All I can do is sit back and wait and hope they work this bullshit out so I can play through the base game before the DLC comes. I took a day off when this fucking game released and couldn't play it. The patch did fuck all for me because this game is still a glitchy pile of shit that crashes at random, crashes when I try to run test in options, and crashes for challenges. The only thing I could play through was the Harley Quinn DLC and that is because it takes 15 minutes.

Going by the price, and the Red Hood/Harley Quinn DLC...an hour is my guess.
They confirmed it's $6.99 over here.

I won't speculate on the amount of content since we'll know soon enough. I really hope this is good as this is the only DLC for the game I'm really looking forward to. Perhaps the other story DLC could turn out better, but I'd love to see them get Batgirl right.

Yup, but should make for a good story though.
So it would be as long as all three (Scarecrow, Harley and Red Hood) DLCs together!
Babs or the design?

Right, I'm not saying that the PC version isn't fucked beyond measure. All I'm saying is that the work put into this DLC isn't going to change that and it'd be unfair to break their obligation to the console audience who've already bought into the 6 months of post release support.
Besides that, this thing isn't out for another 3 weeks or so, I'd hope Rocksteady+IG will have accomplished something before then. On top of that I hope they offer some additional compensation.
It's super-shitty that you're unable to play something you bought and paid good money for. It really is. It's also super-shitty of you to act so selfish that you'd prefer people that can/are enjoying the game and its content not be able to get more of it when it's already ready to go, simply because you can't.

Barbara's identity as Batgirl is made very clear in Arkham Knight.
If you are into solving the Riddler's riddles, that is.

I've gone three games without giving a shit about
the Riddler's inane bullshit
Although I did just remember she said something about how
it's "almost like being back in the field" when she's helping you with all the drone tanks in front of GCPD.

WB Montreal is good news since Origins missions were really good. but Babs as the Batgirl is just... she is really not an interesting Batgirl at all.
Cassandra Cain the the superior Batgirl, She is the best melee fighter of the entire Bat clan too (on par with her mother) and also a sword fighter on par with Katana. it's crazy that we don't get her in Arkham series. Freeflow system will be amazing with her ability to read movements and body language and her super speed.

Even though the main game is awesome, still not gonna bite it. This is a shitty deal, the whole season pass is just a ripoff. No, no, no. I'll just finish the main game and move on with something new.

Arkham Oranges is a thing just like RIP in peace, come on GAF.

Same, this was the biggest advertised piece of DLC in it, I'm worried about the rest.
There's another 'expansion', the 'Season of Infamy' DLC.
But yeah, considering the price of the season pass I expected this to cost more. But its pricing seems in line with Cold, Cold Heart, which was quite expansive.
Hopefully we get a trailer soon to get a sense of the quality and scope.
If I wasn't getting this free I wouldn't buy it, but I'm getting it free so yay.

Agreed. Stephanie would have been better. Even Cassie would have been awesome, but that's never going to happen.
DC wants to forget she exists don't expect to see her represented in any major way.
Booooooo.
OG Babs is still the best <3
But that's because DC wants to neuralize anyone who brings up Cassandra Cain.
