It saw a brooding and broken Batman being tasked to find and stop the sudden rise of Scarecrow, who is threatening to unleash a wave of fear toxin over Gotham City - although you find out later in the story that it’s actually the entire eastern seaboard. And, due to the fact that I actually played Origins first, I can safely say that it is my least favourite in the series.Īrkham Knight is the finale in the Arkham trilogy developed by Rocksteady since the 2009 release of Batman Arkham Asylum. It took countless hours of both playthroughs and watching other videos that people had made before I ended up playing Knight all the way through.
So my whole perception of the entire storyline was wacky. The problem is, I brought a new perspective to the series, cause I started playing City in late 2014 and the first game in the series that I ever got to play… was Arkham Origins. You see, Arkham Knight has been analyzed beyond death by avid lovers of the Arkham series, and I know this better than anyone, cause I’ve read, almost all of them.
Okay, I know what you’re thinking, “are you serious? Another essay about Arkham Knight? Aren’t you just beating a dead horse to complete and utter decomposition?” And you’d be right in thinking that.
