Official Batman: Arkham Knight Trailer Gotham is Mine
- Thread starter dex3108
- Start date
Am I the only one let down by this? I feel like I've played this game before; three times in fact. It's the same story, same setup (villain takes over asylum/city/city/city), samey-looking city, same villains, mostly same moves, the "toughest challenge for the bat, yet". I'm sorry, I just can't get excited

Even if they only do challenge rooms that would be fine, really like playing her.

Ummm have you seen The Order: 1886?
Nothing here looks impossible to me. The overall cleanness might not be there on consoles, but that's about it. I expect a few jaggies and some baby drops in frame rate.

Absurd,
They've hardly shown off the city, there is a new villian, there are new moves as well (not that theyve shown off combat that much.) and there are plenty of additions including the friggin Batmobile.
I mean, do you expect them to completely throw away everything that was successful with the previous titles and start from scratch? ....Why?....why would they do that?
What if he is voicing the Arkham Knight and it's Batman from the future.
Hopefully. Would love to see DC rely less on Batman.

The faces in general look really top notch.
But its just an annoyance I have with many modern games with how it seems like some of these "new and improved" faces for existing characters seem like they're probably just face scans of actual people, like generic models or something. So it makes some characters seem like they're just normal actors being recreated in a video game, not characters built from the ground up like you can only do in a game, if that makes sense.

Looks great. Gonna phase out any media from now on though.
Yeah.
That was an amazing trailer, easily their best yet, so excited for this!
What a random comparison, and no I don't think models look as good as the order, let's see them during gameplay and not during cinematics, TO models looks just as good in gameplay for example, most games not.

Lucky, that is probably going to be worth some cash down the road because those have been sold out for months now.

Not to worry too much, I pretty sure I saw somewhere that Rocksteady will not be going too much into the story in any pre-release trailers/info.

It's good to have low expectations.

arkham asylum was not about joker wanting titan to finally take over gotham
arkham city was about ra's al ghul and his plan to get batman to replace him
arkham origins was about joker trying to get batman to cross the line that batman swore he would never cross
so no not as of yet have any of the plots been similar.

Gorgeous. Rocksteady are just incredible devs.
Oh and this game will be gigantic, but no surprise there

I don't think it's random in the sense that The Order has good faces but AK is much bigger in scope and is a lot more impressive to me.
No chance my 970 will run this at 60fps at max settings. GM200 where art thou.

No, it was about the joker sickness too, Ra's plot was just thrown at the end when you defeated Strange, for some reason, like it was a twist.
In all games Joker has been the main antagonist, so it will be interesting what they do this time.

This and Witcher 3 starting the summer off real fucking strong. My 3.5GB 970 is going to weep.

In all honesty though I am a little worried. I don't think the open world design is really beneficial, and this is even more open-worldier than AC. I played the first two games about the same amount of time (basically platinumed both outside of the hardest challenges), and I think the first one is much more memorable overall. Occasionally I remember stuff I liked a ton about AC (the whole museum was fricken great), but it's a little fuzzy to me (especially some of the side quests) and I can't help but think that's because of how open the game is.
But I'll still get this

People dont seem to know the difference between a "plot" and a "setup".

There had better be NO JOKER.
And I wish the Origins guy was voice Batman again. Conroy doesn't sound grizzled enough.

nah, Ra's is the main antagonist in AC. everything besides the joker bit at the end all happened because of him.
Batman is secretly the Joker.
Pretty sure this video is real time and possibly even console footage. Lots of aliasing.

Faces look great compared to the sometimes wonky designs in the previous games.
I enjoyed Asylum but found City tedious. Not sure what to make of this one.

Were you looking for a musou kart racer?
You can get the same result on PC if you disable AA. Their E3 2014 footage exhibited very nasty aliasing as well and that was confirmed to be PC.
I don't expect it to look that much worse on consoles, every sku is from the same mold.

God Damn. That was fantastic. All the character models are detailed as hell. Two Face looks nasty as fuck. The world looks packed and Firefly made it in! I neeeeeed this game.
Why would they do that for a trailer?
I don't know but that's definitely possible because that level of aliasing is insane even by console standards. I don't believe for a second the game will ship with that IQ even on PS4/XBO.
The trailer "evening the odds" is also ridden with aliasing and that could very well be PC footage as well.
We will have a better understanding of how the PC version can look closer to release when all the Gameworks effects are in place.
PS4 would probably melt if it tried to pull off these graphics.
Yea that's why its random, the scope is different and that's why it's hard to compare, fidelity wise The Order looks better but its scope is limited, so some might be more impressed with a bigger scope kind of game like Batman that also looks awesome and some will be more impressed with higher fidelity like The Order even if it means a more limited scope.
It's a matter of taste since games are so different it's hard to compare directly, better stick to open world vs open world for a better comparison.

Blasphemy. All of it.
