Killing Batman would ruin it for me after all the time and money I have invested into the series. Especially If they tried to carry it on with Dick taking over. I would be even madder. In the comics when they "killed" Bruce I was upset but when they made Dick the new Batman I was angry. Which I bring up because this franchise is a big ball of money and I feel like even if Batman dies they would try to continue.
Why were you against Dick becoming Nightwing in the comics?
I honestly wish they didn't put a multiplayer mode in Origins and focused more on single player. It would have given them more time to sort out the glitches. And probably even given us a longer story. Each assassin should have had their own segment like Firefly did. Deadshot and Shiva shouldn't had been side missions and Deathstroke should have had a bigger role like the trailers made it seem.
Deadshot was a side mission in Arkham City too and didn't see anyone complain about that (even then, he was still better executed than in AC I felt, in addition to the improved design). Agree on Shiva however, but some of the hired assassins were bound to get more attention than others, though Slade still got some alright treatment with that said (in addition to being playable in challenge mode), as did Bane especially. Copperhead had her own segment too, but Black Mask ultimately got shafted more than any of the assassins. I'm not sure that much would've changed with the single player though (bugs aside) if they hadn't included the multiplayer.

Deadshot's role in Arkham City wasn't really the same. The main plot of Origins was "Black Mask" hiring 8 assassins to take out Batman. So Deadshot being one of the 8, should had been part of the main story and not a side mission.
And the issue regarding Slade is the trailers made it seem like he would be this awesome recurring villain that we have to get better and better to eventually take him down whilst trying to also combat Slade's uber-smart brain and fighting style. Nope. Only one boss fight(which is early in the game) and Batman absolutely curbstomps him and isn't even winded walking away from it. Like, he barely breaks a stride or has to take a breath after KO'ing him. That's not badass, that's just straight out illogical.
Deadshot in Origins was weak. The entire Assassin story angle wasn't a big as it could of been.
Also, I didn't finish the Deadshot mission in Origins. I despised how enemies would keep on reappearing. One of my pet peeves in gaming.
I'm currently playing Arkham City again. It's better than I remembered. It's also a much better game than Origins. It has more character, atmosphere, less annoyances and the area is a perfect size.

You won't be happy to know then that the Two-Face mission in Arkham City (as Catwoman) and Harley in City's story DLC also have reappearing enemies until you take out the main threat.
And yeah, City's better than Origins. It's not without its flaws too though.
Deadshot in Arkham City was a just a side mission. Nothing else.
In Origins, he was supposed to be part of the main story. I expect he would be a bigger deal than what happened.
I guess the issue with the reappearing enemies is that I took apart the room very quietly. I then attacked Deadshot and was beating him up. Two second after, I get shot in the back by bad guys I didn't know was in the room. I did this like three times when I realized they were reappearing through the door. It was dumb.
At least have a very small cutscene showing them entering instead of them shooting you in the back.
Yeah, can understand it being frustrating the first few times if you're not aware. The reinforcements aren't that much a problem though if you just throw a smoke pellet around where you and Deadshot are, then do a beatdown on him again till the guys get closer or when the smoke starts clearing. Definitely forgivable compared to the Two-Face encounter in Arkham City where you had no such gadgets as Selina and guys kept reappearing without as much warning.
Originally posted by Wei PhoenixDick was his own man when he became Nightwing. He had made a decent name for himself and while he still had a relation to Batman he was a Hero of his own making. When he became Batman it was like taking a million steps backwards. They can spin it as him "being the only one worthy" but they ripped away his identity. If they ever want to replace Bruce the only proper way is to have robin take up the mantel. The sidekick taking up what they were trained for kinda thing. I mean one could argue that Dick was once Robin but thats not the same because he moved on and became a hero of his own.
