Well at least that's... more reassuring than the multiplayer being dead because nobody wanted to play it/was that bad.
Not sure if I'll ever manage to beat the Worst Nightmare dark knight track until they do some more patching. Currently stuck on rank 6, where you have to do a vent cover takedown, exploding wall takedown, corner cover takedown, and reverse ledge takedown all in one predator encounter. Read that the best places to do it in the story was during the Deadshot encounter in the bank and one of the predator rooms before the finale with the Joker, but in both situations, whenever and where-ever I would lead a guard to set up for a hanging ledge takedown, I would never get the prompt to press Y and do it and they would always immediately see me hanging above them and start shooting while others run to his position. The other takedowns I can do fine though.
I know it's not me in the wrong because I usually always managed to do the reverse ledge takedowns flawlessly when going for those challenge medals in Arkham City..
Other than that though had a pretty solid first playthrough. Don't know where to even begin on how much I loved the story itself, especially the 2nd half. Alfred..
Hope this game does well/better in the future, especially after the rest of the bugs are fixed. Of course, there will always be those giving the game a hard time because it wasn't done by RockSteady or because it wasn't the kind of step up from Arkham City that City was to Asylum, and thus is deemed mediocre/garbage by the harder to please fans.

The skin pack is ridiculous. Batman Noel unlocks after you beat the game....Why is he in the skin pack???
EDIT: The skin pack consists of...
First appearance of batman skin, Red Son, Noel, New52, blackest night, and the best buy pre-order robin.
So the catch is First appearance came in the collectors edition. Red Son...idk if it unlocks or not. Noel, just beat the game. New52 unlocks after all data packs are found and people claim balckest night unlocks after all challenges are complete. So I have to ask wtf is the point of the skin pack?
People like me already have first appearance and if you unlock three others leaving only red son and robin. Unless you got your game from best buy then you only are actually getting red son....
At first I thought it was a glitch of some kind when I didn't see all the skins from the get-go after I downloaded them, minus the Noel one after beating the game first time.
There's just three Enigma packs I'm missing now. One in one of the floors of that Hotel, and a couple on that main train room when [SPOILER - highlight to read]: you were defusing one of Firefly's bombs earlier, but can't seem to reach the said rooms that the Enigma items are in again, due to all the destruction/debris. Is there a way for me to get to those areas again or should I just wait till I naturally get to those spots again on New Game Plus, assuming everything still carries over?
Still kinda annoyed about the hanging ledge takedown being buggy for one of the Worst Nightmare track challenges, especially since I can't unlock the last upgrade (which is necessary for doing one of the predator challenge maps) for the Sonic Batarang until I reach a certain rank on Worst Nightmare.
Nevermind, found the last Enigma stuff earlier before starting NG+. Case of forgetting/overlooking something obvious I guess. That and I was tired when I first tried looking for those last ones.
Well the rest of those costumes from that skin pack work for me now, without me having to do anything. Guess they were glitched at first after all. Out of them I like the Noel and New 52 Batman skins the best. Always liked too how you can actually switch between them in-game in the batcave, unlike Arkham City where you could only choose one before starting the game and would have to exit and restart if you wanted to switch to a different one. Just a minor convenience, but cool nonetheless.
p.s. Am I the only one who wishes Deathstroke would've had his own version of the shock gloves (with his staff being electrical I guess) in challenge mode once you acquired the gloves in the story as Batman? Would've made up for not being able to use his sword when playing as him at least.

Thing I dont like that when you quit the story mode and reenter you always start with the original costume.That's why whenever I quit the game I got to the batcave first so after continuing I can choose my costume.
Deathstroke should definetly have someonething similar.Batman feels kinda overpowered to Slade when it comes to the gloves and gadgets.

Well I finally came across a bug. Right now, I have this suspect surrendering and there should be a Y button to interrogate but it's nowhere on the screen and I'm standing around listening to this guy chatting non-stop. I leave to redo side mission but it's still having that same problem everytime I go back and beat everyone up again.
Luckily for me I havent met any glitches till I am the night....that was full of it though....same with the interogation guy stuck on a floor and I could only press Y after climbing the ladder even then I had to time it right had to climb the ladder like 10 times mashing Y.Also on Penguin's boat one of the enforcers stuck into a door had to wait like 2 minutes for him to magically escape.
Did they fix the gadget glitch in I am the night?
The one where after reentering you lose remote claw and the concussion detonator....
Yeah Man, it would have been Cool for Deathstroke to use his Sword, like when he reaches a certain Multiplier like Batman, he could use it for a period of time before putting it away, and rinse and repeat like Batman's Gloves, that would have been Awesome
Yeah Unfortunately, we don't get that, but im Sure that in the Future Rocksteady will do something like that in their Next Arkham Sequel, as well as add BANE(With a Venom Boost, similar to Bat's Shock Gloves), BLACK MASK(With a Gun Boost, similar to Batman's Shock Gloves), and RED HOOD( With his 2Guns as a Boost, similar to Batman's Shock Gloves)
SPeaking of Which, what do you think the Arkham City Sequel is going to be About?
me Personally hopes that Nightwing and Red Hood(Jason Todd) gets some Screen Time in that Game, but overall who do you think will be the next Villain, Story, and Setting?
Bane had an awesome personality but he fought like a tard.
He started out good at the eleveator with the grapples and stuff but as soon as he got on venom he became a rampaging idiot....which was kinda dissapointing .
More female villains. I want to see Ivy, Harley and Selina again. One of my biggest gripes about Origins is that the female villains just aren't memorable enough to me.
