    I will make it short. The old Arkham games are still better than Gotham Knights. The world is empty the world is boring. Grinding for items and level up. 30fps not even mentioned. Shortly the game is trash and never 60-80 bugs worth. Sad sad...

    Traversal is slow. For a game that encourages "patrols" you would think the bike would be able to go faster than 25 MPH. The driving mechanics are also laughably bad, no better than an NES game. You can traverse via grappling but it is hard to aim and not fluid.

    Combat is so much clunkier than Arkham or Spiderman. The camera is all over the place! I was so hyped for this game but was    Traversal is slow.

    Why are people still trying to defend stuff like this? Don't you feel insulted by absolute lack of care by the developers? If you pay 70 dollars for this, you are part of the problem. Developers start caring only when you stop paying. As long you pay for the badly made game, they are fine. They don't play these games anyway.

    This is seriously bad. If i was involved in development of this game, i would change a job. It's very clear that none of these developers are actual gamers, because no gamer with actual dignity would release next-gen game that barely runs 30fps....

    Jogo full price que parece que foi feito com pressa, gráficos, gameplay, diálogos com impressão que tudo esta inacabado. Parece um jogo ruim de 2016.

    Very fast the game become so repetitive! While batman arkham series were game of the year quality games, the designers decided to change the game and make a bad version of spiderman!

Anyway, the boss fights are boring repetition fo the same pattern with no excitement. Anyway, the game is no fun and so far the story has been very predictable and boring (I am on night 15)! oh, and let me and, the moving engine also sucks! no way you can land where you want. There are many places where you simply can't climb while it seems very reasonable to be able to!… Expand

    Gotham Knights is beyond unplayable! I can’t progress further into the game, let alone even load past the main menu… Fps issues constantly too.

    Gameplay stuck, repetitive enemies, boring scenes and history. 2016 graphics.
    Only 30FPS.
    Not worth the price.

    Very repetitive as well as insanely boring. Its a loot crate hoard fest. I wish I would have spent that $70 on a bag of worms instead of this game.

    There was obviously 0 love put in this game. I just can't shake the feeling that this game is seriously unpolished and all rusty, even if it's new. Arkham Knight had more love put into it and creativity, We are no longer in a age where technology is a bottleneck. it's the creativity of the devs, But damn it why did they decide to limit the FPS to 30?

    NO 60FPS = UNPLAYABLE.
    This game looks and runs like a bad PS4 game. Very poor.

    This game is fantastic, I love the story, graphics and game play. It's not like the Arkham games which I also love, it's different but not worse. It requires a lot more reading, there's a lot more to it and the game doesn't make it easy to just jump in and play, there's definitely a learning curve. Once you understand all the many categories and tabs of information it's a very engaging experience.

    The game is not bad and serves you a lot. You want a hero? You have four. Want big missions? Usually you have about three going at once. You want side missions? You've got a city full of them. Which doesn't mean it's a great game. Just good and solid. [Issue#323]

    Not being content with being one of the most soulless products released under the Warner Bros. label, it is also extremely underwhelming from a technical point of view. Gotham Knights was originally developed as a multi-gen title, but PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions got cancelled. Despite this, the visuals underwhelm and fail to impress and manage to look worse than the last major Batman instalment released seven years prior. Capping at a mere 30fps might be excusable if this boasted the most cutting edge visuals on the market, but it manages to look cheap and dated. For a AAA production from Warner Bros., this should have been a visual tour de force, with top writing talent, and have evolved the gameplay to compete with its contemporaries. Maybe it can be salvaged over time with updates, but currently it's one of the most droll and sloppily designed triple-A products of 2022.

    Gotham Knights would be a great game, its sandbox approach to exploring Gotham is top-notch and its story keeps you just engaged enough to keep playing. The problem lies in the game’s lackluster combat and endless fighting cycles of beating up the same factions over and over and over with little to no variation to dialogue.
