Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
This game is my first Batman game (I played Asylum and City both for about 15 mins each, so I hardly count them). It's, uhh... hm.
I like it and hate it in equal measure.
First of all, let's list out what I like:
+You play as Batman doing Batman things
+It's absolutely gorgeous
+The combat is fun even if it's not that deep, punching guys has weight to it and I love the "oomph" the sound effects and visuals put into a knockout
+The story is moderately interesting, nice use of classic characters like Alfred, Oracle, Scarecrow, Nightwing (!!!!) and the Knight himself is sufficiently menacing and mysterious
+The open world city is pretty well done, and there's a lot to do in it
+I don't actually hate the Batmobile, it's pretty fun
+Downloadable skins are neat, especially Batman Beyond
Things I HATE:
-Ubisoft style collectathon Riddler trophies
-MANBAT
-Any puzzles in this game are complete garbage. I hate moving blocks on the airship, I hate hacking doors, I hate the ever-so-frequent moments where I find myself stumped as to what to do only to find out I was missing an air shaft or was supposed to use the batmobile remote or something.
-Some of the battles are just hordes and hordes of guys. It's made somewhat interesting when a good amount of them are armed or can detect your detective mode and you have to work your way around that, but sometimes the game just throws a bajillion unarmed guys at you (with one or two big guys you have to grab and JoJo punch to death). It's overly tedious.

I'm getting sick of seeing Joker featured prominently in all Batman media. Feels like he's very overexposed at this point
I feel like I hit a wall in this game every 15 minutes or so. Right now I'm looking for some guy's handprints on an airship and I can't for the life of me find them. When it's good, it's good, but when it's bad, it's downright frustrating. I'm surprised the Batmobile was the major complaint about this game.
Overall, I do like it a lot, and for my first Arkham game, it's pretty friendly to me as a newcomer. I love all the data logs, character profiles, etc. I live for that encyclopedic stuff.
