The NEW Batman Game Feels Like A SLAP IN THE FACE For Arkham Fans 

Arkham Beyond would be a guaranteed success. WB needs to wake up

A second slap in the face actually. I had hopes for suicide squad because of Rocksteady, then they made it an online game.

Imagine benching your star player smh 🤦🏿‍♂️ WB GAMES

“Now that’s not funny”-Joker Arkham Origins

(Note that I'm not trying to bash the video. My anger is pointed elsewhere.) I agree with a lot of those points, but as much as I would love to have another great Arkham game, it might not be as simple as "Convince them to make an Arkham game." Gotham Knights and Kill the Justice League had horrible writing and incompetent level design. If the same studios were to make an Arkham game, it would likely have similar problems because they lost a lot of talented people. Yes, I would like another good Arkham game. No, I do not trust them to make it.

What they should be doing is having the next Arkham game a precursor to becoming Batman Beyond

I replay Batman arkham series these days . . And wow what a drop from grace for a legendary character and franshise .. batman arkham knight consider for me top notch superhero fantasy experience of all time and nothing can beat that .

I really hope WB don’t fuck up the Wonder Woman game

The only game I would accept right now is Beyond Arkham or Arkham Beyond. Kevin Conroy is gone, SSKTJL already shit on his legacy enough.

Warner Brothers never fails to disappoint 🔥🔥🔥

"no true follow up to arkham knight..." yea, because it was the end of that story. there was never going to be a follow up.

After SSKTJL, I’m just happy Rocksteady realized who the main attraction is

Warner Brothers can’t manage a paper bag.

Does anyone know if Spider-Man 2 made it's money back? I adore single player games but AAA wise, if successes like Spider-Man 2 or Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth didn't make their money back, I can see why publishers might be a tad worried about going w/o some variant of extra monetization. Though they are Sony exclusives and sequels that didn't have multiplatform launches and a lower player base, it's still a pricey maneuver that publishers tend to avoid.

I would rather play a futuristic vr game than just another old style tv game tbh

Im a Arkham fan and love that we are getting a vr title

This is another example of corporations not listening to fans/consumers. We are not viewed as people who enjoy a product/IP and have emotional reactions to it. We are viewed as ATMs to be punched in the stomach and regurgitate money. I have a friend who used to work for a big comic book company and he overheard a chief editor say something to the effect, ...Why should I care what the fans think! They all are nothing but nerds living in their mother's basement!" I believe this is the attitude of many executives who run many famous IPs we all grew up on (Star Trek, Star Wars, anything Marvel, anything DC, Doctor Who, to name a few). When you look at the quality of story, presentation and execution, it makes you wonder why are they wasting time and good money on bad concepts. It is unfortunate that all we can do is not buy their "product" and and let them experience the loss. But the problem with that is that we have to deal with the bad product on the market, they will refuse to take it off the market. At least the developers of Afro Samurai 2 apologized and removed their game from market. DC/WB perceive themselves as too big to fail....it is a matter of time.

VR is the best thing ever, perhaps if instead of complaining some people would give it a try....

I have a quest 3 and I am looking forward to this. I loved the Iron Man game and i think having a full fledged Batman in VR is going to be incredible. I understand VR isnt for everybody but for those who love it like myself im super excited for this. Along with Alien VR and Metro Awakening its looking like a very good year for VR users.

That Joker elevator experience on Sony VR1 was wild af

"WE just lost $200 million on this game, so lets do MORE of it"

I’m hyped for this one!

I’m excited for it. I will probably never get a VR headset but I’m just excited for new lore that doesn’t butcher the universe. We were never promised a new Arkham game so why is everyone so surprised that it’s only VR. I don’t get the anger. At least the Arkham series isn’t dead.

It's crazy to me that after shitting all over the Arkham series with Suicide Squad the lobotomites at Rocksteady thought it was a brilliant idea to do this. I hope this company goes defunct before 2025.

Why can’t they give us a Batman game that builds on the Arkham blueprint, but also adds the new tech that’s available and also implements what has make other companies games great. An engaging story that is shaped by the players choices and every decision has a meaningful impact on the ending of the game. Imagine adding all that up with also having them giving us the option to play as playboy Bruce Wayne to tackle some portions of the game. Going to a high end party with two baddies on the Lambo and choosing to play it casual or act a fool…. Okay, I’m wilding but one can only dream 😂

Bro I'm straight hyped for this shit. I already have a quest 3

I only came here for pancake gamer tears.

7:34 - EXACTLY MY REACTION. THANK GOD SOMEONE CONCURS!

Batman Beyond or Justice League games would've been better options (in my opinion)

It’s a gimmick. No matter how good the story it, it won’t get people to crap 500$ for a vr headset.

Idk I’m sick of superheroes. I’d rather have a new mad max game or something new . Batman is played out

Sad Sony couldn't buy WB, that would've been way better than Paramount

Idk what’s so hard about giving the fans what they want?

Do we really need another batman game, can we for the love of God get a game with another hero like green lantern, flash or superman.

I just want another good batman game, not VR nonsense.

Okay for the folks defending, I don’t think anyone would have a problem if the game were VR compatible but still playable without. Alienating the fans who have no immediate intention of getting new hardware is a risky move. One that I don’t know if they can justify with their current track record. If they absolutely clutch the gameplay and story, maybe. But after suicide squad I’m not holding my breath.

I just dont understand why they wouldn't keep going with the successful series they have. Plus these live service games piss off alot of people. Oh well i dont expect anything but would be nice to get something

We are all so used to getting slapped in the face at this point this feels like a kiss on the cheek

Love VR and Batman, cannot wait for this. Most VR hate comes from a place of ignorance of the tech so people can whine and moan all they want.... but they WILL eventually be in VR so they can either get in now or later but VR isn't going anywhere lol

Wb to it's fans " I can't feel you" X-Men 97

soomeone needs to give WB A clean smooth ass whooping but us og arkhem for disrespecting our goat KEVIN we slide foe Kevin WB I BETTA NOT CATCH YALLIN THE STREETS

I’m sorry it just seems like WB doesn’t want money. How could they think VR is profitable?

If this dude actually got slapped in the face, he'd probably be like, "ooww this feels like that time I was slightly annoyed by a video game!"

just started arkham origins for the first time. awesome game. the announcement got my hopes up for a sequel

This A Pimp Named Slickback type of backhand frfr cause nobody plays VR 🤦🏾‍♂️

The people who made rocksteady great are gone they will never be the same and I doubt this will be any good tbh

I can see this from both sides i enjoy vr gaming more for the sense of presence and the immersion but i do understand it simply doesn't work for some people and the motion sickness faze is hard i am thoroughly against exclusive games i just think it's unfair they is no reason it could not run on pc vr and the psvr 2 probably better

VR games are generally not good,they lack good graphics and fluid animations and gameplay.so I expect this game to flop.

We want a remaster of Arkham originss already, why they don't want to give the players what they want.

hopefully they don't make the next Harry Potter game a live service game, they just need to double down on single player with that one and maybe co-op campaign or a dungeon crawler mode and for the love of everything that is holy no micro transactions

To be fair, people felt the same way about Half-Life Alyx, and that turned out to be amazing

Lost me on VR

Lets be honest, its a piss take that its only on Meta Quest 3, most likely scheme to get people to buy the headset. But i think since it's probably gonna focus on Ratchacter and maybe some smaller villians to give them attention itll make it a fun and interesting story. Just gotta hope it'll have some interestingly new content and a logner story than Arkham Vr

Some delusional people in the comments are actually defending this like SS:KtJL didn't happen 💀

Y’all gotta chill. You just said wb games have nothing to do with the project they just greenlighted the ip, this game doesn’t mean the Arkham flat series is done it’s just not known what they will do.

No dought this will be released than modded to work without vr.

Ain't nobody playing this game wb is a disappointment this year

people always complain when there’s something exclusive to one medium or the other. we have almost nothing for ourselves in VR. If you can't play it too bad. we don’t get to complain when console and PC get new high quality games. So why should they? And I bet all those people complaining and no problem crapping all over that terrible Suicide Squad game. these are the kind of people that look for reasons to complain because they like their own voice.

Meta quest game??? Oh god no! 🤮

How could we have a new Arkham game tho? Batman is dead now

A new Arkham game won’t work mainly because Kevin Conroy the voice of Batman is dead and mark hamil the voice of the joker has retired from the roll. So the game will fail miserably because that what made Arkham work not the combat, or story but the chemistry between hamil and conroy it was continuation of Batman the animated series. Look how well Arkham origins did when neather Conroy or Hamil where involved.

You think? Jokes on us…

It's great for the VR community. Wanna play it? Buy a headset. This is comparable to complaining about console exclusives.

Batman VR could be amazing I understand why people are unhappy but Batman in VR is a great choice.

Actually Suicide squad was the slap in the face! This is a tease!🫤 PLEASE make a true Arkham series game! For multiple systems!😢

Lets Wait and See

I personally think we seriously need a Superman game way more then Arkham Batman game in my opinion.

Arkham fans are also on quest 3. If there are arkham fans that don't have a Quest 3 that want to play the game, they can buy a Quest 3 like it'd always been since the beginning of playing video games. Quest 3 deserves exclusive games, too. This isn't a new or even complicated process.

MODERN VR > console gaming

This is not the same rocksteady it used to be that's why they suck now. While Marvel gave us good games these past years, WB went downhill

i dont feel the same, im excited!

Developers think VR's is the future but in reality it's just another niche console at best

New batman VR is the best news actually

Im excited. Iron man was great.

WB Games doesn't care about its fans and is in very bad hands and leadership

Why? Is Will Smith in it?😂

Those freaks at WB head office are downright delusional. People are practically begging for a new single player Batman experience. How on earth do they keep coming with ideas for games literally no one asked for?!!

It's too funny. People talk crap that there's nothing in VR. Then they put games in VR, and people are mad It's VR and not flat. Go cry me a river. The only people that this should suck for are psvr2 owners And other headset owners. As it's an exclusive for quest.

Honestly I think I might just back away from gaming until GTA comes out. It's all broken, over-monitized and loaded with marxist propaganda. It's just depressing😞

The quest 3 is absolutely amazing, I approve of this.

Im excited. Speak for yourself. I have my quest 3 and lm so ready.

Breathe bro..

People everywhere are bitching way too much about this, bruh. Ya'll haven't even played the damn game. Besides, the only way that VR is ever gonna grow as a console in the mainstream is through a big popular IP. And what better IP than Batman? If you search up the studio's webpage, you can tell that they care about the universe and legacy of this world. Also, There is no way this takes place slightly before or after Arkham Knight. First off, 2016's Arkham VR already has that covered. This game has to be in BETWEEN Origins and Ayslum. According to an Arkham Story in Arkham City, Ratcatcher is killed by Penguin before the events of City. Also, Batman's suit in this game is a no brainer as well. It looks like a hybrid of Origins and Ayslum's base suits rather than the metal armor of Knight, further indicating that this is a bridge in that time gap we don't see. Also, Roger Craig Smith, the voice of Batman in Origins and Blackgate, retweeted the trailer.

So much whining. if you wanna play buy a headset. Can't? Watch the gameplay when it realeases. Don't like it? Too bad. Exclusivity has been a thing for far too long for people to be acting this dumb about it

Not like this😂

DC games are straight ass these days though.

Just get a quest 3 if you want to play it 🤷‍♂️

Game came out in 2015, serious fans thus couldn’t have been waiting for decades when it hasn’t been a decade yet… great video though!

2:13 ah yes, simply putting a wave of thugs where you button mash punch and dodge for 5 minutes straight... such innovation.. yall stop being sour and actually try one of these Quest 3 systems. Who knows you might even enjoy it..

Well some weirdos who claim to be “Arkham fans” seem extremely “excited” for some weird reason when it’s was fully acknowledged that it is a VR GAME!!!!?!?!? I know strange individuals 🤨

I wanna see one more realistic. Maybe based on the new movie. More linear levels with some freedom. Batman can't fly around the city or fight 20 people at once. Alot of stealth reliance, breaking lights and using gadgets. More realistic fighting, other than being able to take bullets. Higher caliber the more damage. Some shots knock him down, get one adrenaline shit before death.

batman the plague tale 🤣.rip .big flop

First

More soulless 'hack & slash..' 😒

I am hyped for this. Only people who are salty are people who don't have a Quest 3. Meta helped fund this it wouldnt nave even happened if it wasn't for them. Let's hope is sells well so WB will make an actual sequesl for flat screen gamers.

Nope this is a kick in the freaking balls

PSVR2 is really dropping the ball

It means these companies only care about online only crap. If that's the case then gaming will be dead

Love vr gaming. For me it's better then Flat-screen games

Sounds like a hater without a Quest 3.
