#the real victim of the Arkhamverse is Harley imo

[zeroducks-2]

Knight is less overt with the misogyny but yeah it's still there, women still don't fucking exist lmao. As female characters we have Barbara, Harley, Ivy and Selina, they amount to a whopping four same as in City where we have Ivy, Harley, Talia and Selina.

Honestly in Knight it's even more jarring that there are no women around. In City one can stretch the excuse of an only men prison, in Knight it's all free range looters, random goons and Militia. But I agree the dialogues are a little bit better, and they managed to write Barbara somewhat decently. Despite not being the 30 something experienced woman she's supposed to be, she still stands up to Jason, to Scarecrow, is a real help to Bruce once you get her back and the part where you fight the tanks with her was honestly heartwarming. Also her relationship with Tim is stupid but you know what, I'll take it if it means I won't have to deal with Dickbabs lolol.

And while in City Bruce is a stoic motherfucker stick up his ass Noli Me Tangere, in Knight I can see that he really loves Babs dearly, what affection he shows isn't only directed at the boys. Also I like what they did with Ivy. Sure she dies to motivate the male protagonist but it's still better than whatever the fuck they did in the other two games where she looks and acts only as a random slutty plant girl, like boys you really did this one using your dicks didn't you.

So yeah, better even if far from perfect.

God. Right. Heres ur reminder that arkham city is hella trashy about women. "The key was in her boobs" im gonna kill you. Tim really stuck his whole hand in a womans cleavage. 2010s dudebro ass game.
