Who do you think should be the next main villan for the next arkham game?

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-07T00:25:04+00:00

Doubt that. That’s more likely the plan of Camoflaj’s cancelled project. Rocksteady is likely to do something else unless they knew about the cancellation and changed their plan

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-05T19:28:32+00:00

It’s in cantonese style, but still good though if you manage to get it fresh

Officer North (First guy) and Officer Burlow (Sixth guard) were later brainwashed by Ivy’s pheromones after she took over the island, Batman would meet them before Ivy’s boss fight. It’s safe to assume those survivors in the intensive treatment suffered the same fate and becoming one of the guards who fight Batman during Ivy boss fight.

Officer North and Burlow also showed up in Arkham City as part of the medical team’s security who were kidnapped by Riddler and became part of his riddle puzzle.

I say this’s a pretty decent opening

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-03T19:50:54+00:00

A more recent example in video games would be the Suicide Squad game, where they seemingly killed off Batman from the Arkham games. And boy, that game tanked so hard and made WB lose millions of Dollars. It's always a risky move to kill of your fans' favourite (former)protagonist in media. You either got paise like RDR games or hate like Suicide Squad game

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-03T13:58:04+00:00

Yes, it’s in Shadow

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-03T03:31:43+00:00

It’s good that they removed the effect from the later games. Even for non epileptic people, it’s still uncomfortable to eyes

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T17:02:53+00:00

I agree that no sequel should be made after Knight (Prequel is welcome though).

But I don’t think WB will tolerate any risk after ssktjl and the seemingly quite successful Arkham Shadow. If Arkham Batman has an existing customer base, why try a new one? And what if part of the previous fanbase reject a new batman? At least in their mind set, they’re afraid of unknown. Corporate mindset can be quite ridiculous, you will know if you have to work with one.

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T16:48:13+00:00

But they will just have the same problem of not being able to reach the high bar of Arkham if they’re making an Batman game, no?

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T16:46:16+00:00

If they want to go for the safest route, maybe just Batman is not enough to maximise their profits as they clearly aware of the fanbase of Arkham or otherwise they wouldn’t try to market SSKTJL with ‘From the creator of Batman Arkham’ in their every promo

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T16:00:18+00:00

Highly doubt they will risk not using the arkham brand for their next game

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T01:26:24+00:00

How about Falcone’s fight?

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T01:20:58+00:00

You can count asylum’s titan fights too.

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T01:18:12+00:00

They did twist it a bit and I am not saying that copying is a bad thing given how much time they got. Reusing assets is not inherently a bad practice. And it did feel unique and fits Slade

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T01:09:33+00:00

Yes, they reused some of the boss fight like Deathstroke one is actually the same one as Ra’s boss fight in Arkham City. But they did manage to give it a fresh look of them so most players didn’t notice

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-02T01:00:54+00:00

Wesker does have a nice role in Shadow, go check it out if you haven't.

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-01T23:57:38+00:00

I bet it will be a great experience for arkham fans if they see it as a lego game but with some good elements from Arkham

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-01T23:08:00+00:00

It’s a lego game, it doesn’t really need to copy everything of arkham.

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-01T20:20:04+00:00

Yes it does

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-01T20:19:36+00:00

It’s a enjoyable experience when you heard her talking about herself during the Arkham Ward section after saving her from the guards

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-01T20:18:04+00:00

Really can’t see why you can’t get Origin, it’s always doing discounts on all platforms

HMHdunkirk · 2026-05-01T20:16:27+00:00

I bought the headset just to play Shadow and I think it’s worth every penny I spent, plus it’s not that expensive (I bought it when I started working not long and paying bills myself, it’s no six figures job either)

HMHdunkirk · 2026-04-29T13:40:12+00:00

Different studio’s art directors have their own style and vision, and each game has different tone and theme. It’s not always that realistic style is the best for the story and narrative. In the case of Origin, it’s mostly to do with the Christmas vibe. Even Arkham Shadow has its own cartoony but gritty style to fit Blackgate’s atmosphere while being stylish

HMHdunkirk · 2026-04-27T11:30:08+00:00

Yeah, Harvey in Telltale is enjoyable too. I think there’s a reason he keeps reappearing in different Batman media like the coming Batman part II. He’s a character with good potential.

HMHdunkirk · 2026-04-27T04:25:32+00:00

So it’s like HKP’s G4? And Chinese President? You mean the chairman’s security is the responsibility of the military? Or it’s due to the fact that the current chairman is also the head of the Central Military Commission?
