Brilliant but flawed
This telltale game isn't really much of a game, but it does a pretty good attempt to bring what an interactive comic with all bells and whistles would entail. It doesn't quite achieve it, but it leaves you understanding why: The main story has to move forward one way or the other, and covering potentially infinite branches would involve a crazy effort. A lot of things are done with care, the art and atmosphere is fantastic, the story has a healthy amount of detail and balance to make it captivating as its own batman tale, the minigames are short and interesting enough and even if your options are limited, a lot of times they have enough charm: You can try your best to side with a specific character, or you can just stand there and say nothing a lot of the time which is amusing. It's flawed because it wants to be more than an interactive comic book, and at the parts it can, it fails. This is done mostly with quick time events in fights, but those are so forgiving and the bad ends so generic and low stakes, they just end up substracting immersion from the story. The show must continue, but the lack of any sort of branch that deviate from the main path also detracts from the feeling telltale tries to deliver, at best you feel they're just selling dreams. You never escape the feeling that this could be better if it wasn't a game, and that's a problem simpler approaches don't have. It's an important problem, but with these kind of games what matters most is if the story is enjoyable, and in this case, it is. I would happily sacrifice graphics and audio for more words and choices, but that's just me, the potential is there for what could be contained interactive universes. -1 because you never escape that feeling that it should have been better than it is, in terms of having a story that branches out and where your choices matter enough to make you want to replay the game at least another time. It just doesn't happen.
