Do I have to have played the other Arkham games to 'get' this one?

Delayed again - June 23rd now.

EDIT: Was June 2nd according to this thread, so I guess a 3 week delay.

Yeah I was worried when I read delay at first too. Though this does ruin my plans of finishing college, and then going into an Arkham Knight binge a few days after finishing.

It has serious chance of dethroning Arkham City from being most epic in the series despite supposedly lack of the Joker but Scarecrow played amazing part in Arkham Asylum. The drug visions Batman had was the better side of the game which is considered a classic.

I expect only best from this underrated villain.

New Arkham Knight trailer. Seems you can switch between characters as you please during gameplay.

Ia it me or does the Robin costume seem inspired from the shitty Batman and robin?

They barely showed any actual in game footage in that clip.
True yeah, though iirc they have shown it off before. In any case if you've played the other ones, I doubt it will change massively from that and you know what to expect. Besides the quick switch of characters.

Jesus that's steep. Never really someone who purchases a season-pass or DLC, so I'll be giving that part a miss for sure.

It's crazy, I can't believe they truly believe that's an acceptable price. They are rightfully going to catch some shit for it.

I'll buy the standard edition for PS4 at launch and then wait for a GOTY version in a Steam sale to play the DLC. I am not paying practically the cost for a full game for DLC.

The whole DLC and micro transactions are slowly ruining gaming.

If it's literally going to be another full story on top of the main story I'll go for it, otherwise just the standard game will do.

If the DLC story will include Catwoman as a main character i'll give it a try. She had a sick combo streaks in Arkham City, way faster and better delivered than Batman, imo. It was such a great fun.

New story missions and new villains is interesting but this....

Legendary Batmobile skins, advanced challenge maps, alternative character skins, and new drivable race tracks.
....stuff is just trash.

Think I'll buy the game but not buy the DLC until the price goes WAYYYYY down. Same as I am doing for MKX
