Infuriatingly dumb
A lot has been said about the technical problems of the game so I'm going to talk about the story and game play. First the story. It blows my mind how off the mark this story goes after the first two episodes. I'm fine with the re-imagining of the characters and backstory as it has been done countless times in other batman stories but the story uses these elements to manufacture false tension and provide "twists". The story is filled to the brim with inconsistent character's, and plot holes, seemingly just to give the player instances to make a "lesser of two evils" choice that has very little barring on the larger story. This becomes frustratingly transparent with each episode and made me care less and less with each choice. Every villain given falls flat since they all have paper thin motivation and again will act contrary to their own goals if the plot demands it. Bruce Wayne as well either comes off as a timid pushover or annoying jerk depending on your dialogue choices, both of which seem very out of character from most other interpretations and makes for an unsympathetic protagonist (Troy Baker is just not good at playing suave playboy in my opinion). I will say that batman on the other hand is as bad ass as ever though. And I did enjoy the BruceSelina scenes, although it does get repetitive by the end and only exists to serve one characters jarring "arc". Finally game play is boring. The detective scenes are literally connect the dots or hold a button down while the computer scans. No thinking required at all so the dummies can feel like they "solved" something. It's honestly insulting to the audience's intelligence. The actions scenes are as usual "press a button to continue the cut scene" which I can live with if the scenes weren't trying to be Zack Snyder boring schlock. So this game wants to be a movie, but if this were a movie it would be torn apart as shallow, immature and worst of all, boring. Telltale needs new writers. "Worst. Batman. Ever." -CBG
