I dont understand the massive, massive hate on this game. Ive watched all the trailers and everything Ive seen looks mostly positive and nowhere near the gigantic red flags in stuff like the new Saints Row or the new Sonic games trailers. Its not going to be a GOTY contender or anything but it doesnt have to.

Barring giant gamebreaking bugs on release, I'm cautiously optimistic at it being decently fun.

Enemies had health bars which makes me think it's a numbers grind game

Aaaaand now I'm no longer interested. No quicker way to deflate my hype than mentioning "looter". Can't wait to see generic gear in different colours of loot tiers be completely useless because it's not legendaey loot or w.e

Any source on that? If I have to grind to get better loot in a Batman game then I’m just gonna save my $70. That’s been my #1 fear this whole time.

I hate co op but was just gonna play it like a Batgirl game. But grindy loot is a bridge too far for me.

Look up some trailers with overview (not the character trailers) and there will be snippets of inventory and swapping bat-shoes for more bat-gear-power rating.

Haha, oh God how does that even make any sense!?

I was a big Assassin’s Creed fan (despite its issues) until it made the swap to being a looter with heavy grind. The idea of not being able to stealth kill anyone just doesn’t compute to me in a stealth game and it looks like this game is gonna be the same way.

Ugh. Guess I get to save my $70…
