I don't overhate the game like most people. I'll openly acknowledge it isn't perfect. Still, I also know it was never meant to be a part of Arkham, and thinking like every game associated with Batman needs to be just like whatever your favorite Arkham game is is just silly.

Like Dick's Romani heritage being mostly contained in a one-liner (or maybe more if I missed some) or even the way they slightly mislead people to think Barbara is magically healed (she's actually not). There are things they could've done more with, but I knew going into it it wasn't going to be perfect, and I'm not wasting my anger.

#I am assuming/hoping that the barbara point did come from the criticism #so maybe they threw in the back brace/reinforcement thing and that scene with alfred idk #but this is me as someone who is disabled and knows people who have gone through physical therapy with similar injuries #and also knowing people who are okay with barbara gordon's injury not being the way that the killing joke portrays them #I also enjoy that it wasn't actually a magical recovery #gotham knights #gotham knights game #batfam #dick grayson #also just more about dick it honestly could've been more with the romani stuff #barbara gordon #btw if you come to stir the pot on this post I literally don't care #I only accept actual nuanced criticism #it's also slightly annoying how easily dialogue can be missed in this game #like I open a menu while someone's talking and it's gone forever
