    Percentage changes are horrible for headlines and so clickbaity

    If 4 people were playing it that means 2 new folk. Same shit with the “suicide squad refund” google search headlines

    Op why do you have such a hard on for shitting on suicide squad? You’re posting this garbage to all the gaming subs.

  4. ShouldersofGiants127

    Let this shit fade into irrelevancy already.

    All these great games and we talking about this bullshit man smh

    Am I the only one who thought this game was amazing? I thought it was second to City, despite the Batmobile sections. I thought the side content was awesome and the best of the series too

    I couldn’t imagine picking Arkham Knight in response. Now, Arkham City? Hell yes.

    3100 people playing Arkham Knight 5100 playing Suicide Squad according to Steam Charts. That’s not including xbox, Playstation, and EGS.

    People going back and playing the earlier entry for a game in the same universe isn’t a bad thing.

    After I beat Alan Wake 2 I went back and played AW1 and Control, and it certainly wasn’t because AW2 was bad, it’s one of the best games I have played.

    People that are waiting for Suicide Squad to go on sale will likely pick up the prequels if they don’t already have them since they are cheap and well made.

    Suicide Squad is a good game, it’s not great, but it’s better than the majority of live service games I have played. It’s got a similar live service model to Path of Exile where the seasonal content is free with paid cosmetics. Whether they follow through on this remains to be seen, but it’s already got a good foundation.

    Can confirm, is doing a new playthrough of AK on PC. Gotta thanks KTJL for my renewed interest in finally completing AK. Still a great game after all these years.

    They should play Lego dc super villains as well

    OP is a bot. Linked website is a hoax. No real numbers reported, just a made up stat from their “exclusive database.”

  12. so is anyone gonna talk about the steam teview metrics? it has so many reviews and to the point of very positive yet it seems the complaints people had were valid based on some youtube videos i watched. With that said does the very positive review still hold? No one thinks that’s fishy? Other similar games either go mixed or even just gets no reviews

    It was just on sale, so that probably helped.

    I need a 60fps patch for the Arkham games on console man. I’m playing all the games on my laptop, and the difference is unbelievable. I refuse to believe that my Series S cannot push past 900p30 (Arkham Knight) or 1080p30 (Return to Arkham) to at least get a 60fps at 1440p, with how old these games are.

    Also, its great to have more players on the older games, which god knows are infinitely better than the new Arkham and Arkham-adjacent games.

    Is the Robin Pattison Batman Suit out (and still in-game) for Arkham Knight?

  16. Spoopyskeleton48

    Is there a lore reason why Arkham Knight is so unbelievably good?

  17. TentacleJesus

    Lmao, I did grab the collection on PS4/5 recently for cheap and have been playing through Asylum again instead of Suicide Squad. I think the price was knocked way down because I already owned Knight digitally, so it was basically $8 for the Return to Arkham versions of Asylum and City, plus I had $5 store credit so I paid like $4.

  18. glazeyourdonut

    Still haven’t played the Arkham games and I still have no idea why. I should install them.

  19. CaptainJackKevorkian

    I picked up Return to Arkham for $20 to replay Arkham City

    Here’s hoping some of these youngins see how much better gaming used to be..

  21. ryhenning

    Same thing happened with dying light when the sequel came out

  22. Irishpunk37

    that was the plan all the way!
    make a mediocre game that will make people realize how good was their older games..

  23. HIVnotAdeathSentence

    If these are new players, Rocksteady might make some money off Arkham Knight.

  24. Aannanymous

    Huh I too inadvertently replayed Arkham Knight…good thing it’s included in PS+.

    I suppose because I was initially interested in suicide squad back when it was announced,but am seeing all these reviews and how it’s nothing like the previous games I just had an itch to scratch to be the batman again.

    Ah, so possibly more inmates for the madhouse that is the r/BatmanArkham sub, got it.

    I half jest. The shitposting is a tad much at a glance, but if I look past that, it’s at least low on the toxicity scale as far as subreddits go. From what (few) serious discussion posts there are, people over there can and will tone down the aslume behaviour to answer questions seriously.

    I got the Arkham collection for under 12 CAD during the New Year’s Sale on Steam over a month ago. To get three fantastic Batman games for that price is damn nice.

  26. I played Arkham knight recently on my ps5 but the graphics looked really weird

  27. Kage9866

    Arkham knight is my favorite in the series.. don’t hate me

  28. Just re-downloaded the game to help boost those numbers! 👍🏽👍🏽
