Playing this game immediately after Asylum resulted in the sameness getting a little grating towards the end. The combat system is still fluid and fun but, at times, can be overwhelmed. When fighting large gangs of thugs that are armed in various ways it can often be impossible to have the correct combat response, someone'll get you! But, that's not …
Playing this game immediately after Asylum resulted in the sameness getting a little grating towards the end. The combat system is still fluid and fun but, at times, can be overwhelmed. When fighting large gangs of thugs that are armed in various ways it can often be impossible to have the correct combat response, someone'll get you! But, that's not terribly bad and honestly the groups big enough for that only happen a handful of times.
It's fun to explore the prison/city, to do a bit of murder investigation side plots, and the main plot line is fun and ridiculous, but I wasn't too keen on the Catwoman bits. Harley Quinn's Revenge was a little lackluster too, in my opinion. This marks two games in a row where the big final boss is just "lots of dudes" instead of a cool, well crafted boss fight like Mr. Freeze or the big electric dude.
That said, I think it's still an improvement over Asylum and I'll be putting Batman down for a bit before moving on to Arkham Knight!
