But the unmanned tank thing made it so unrealistic! Even for a comic-based game, I mean.. The Knight is well aware that all he has to do is just stick a guy in the tank, then watch Batman flounder around trying to 'not indirectly kill' him.
I prefer the Movie-Batman, where he's not afraid to leave the odd bad-guy to die :L I know it sounds grim and un-batman-ish.. But.. I mean.. Where do you draw the line on that? Why doesn't the riddler just broadcast to Batman saying 'yeah, take your batclaw, and shoot it down your throat, in the next 5 seconds. Or I'll kill all these hostages. Simple choice, no time for heroics. You or them.'
This is why I prefer Red Hood. He gets shit done.
Anyway, the sheer number of drones felt out of place to me :L like they were just an excuse to blow shit up in my tank. A few fights, sure, but it's got to be around 40-50% of the story just driving around, solving car puzzles, doing car-infiltrations, getting into car-fights. I didn't enjoy those parts en masse.
And don't even get me started on the (lack of) DLC. Although at lest there's very little Car in all of that.

Mmm, but that's just it. The Riddler has stated on numerous occasions that he only wants to beat Batman involving some sort of riddle with which he intellectually stumps him. And there are a few enemies that abuse the fact that Batman prefers not to kill (a [i]core[/i] principle/concept for all traditional Batman characters)), even within the Arkham Knight. [spoiler]he still finds a way[/spoiler] [spoiler]its just better because now we can go on a fckn roof with a car-tank[/spoiler 1. The parts of the game where the car was not involved were OUTSTANDING. Fighting with various members of the Bat Family was a rewarding experience, and the new combos, combo takedowns, environmental takedowns, ventilation mechanics (seeing outline of ventilation shafts with blue highlights was a deceptively amazing, tiny change), and my personal fav, the glue gun quickfire.. Damn.. it was all great. This game was/is a work of art. 2. Furthermore, these parts were also a notch or two up in the challenge department. I played my first playthrough on Hard and was met with incredible resistance. It was so fun that I'm perfectly willing to do it all again, on my New Game +. I really feel as though Batman was pushed to his mental limits in this game, which is a concept that interests me because generally people in the same physical category are able to compete with others of their physical stature... But their brains could be an entire different story. Different individuals require different events and various other factors to wear them down mentally, and many characters across the DC Universe tend to have amazing mental prowess across many areas. Batman has seen so much and as a fan it was interesting to, say, hear Bruce call Tim Drake "Jason" after his flashbacks of the video Joker sent him. As sadistic as it seems, I took great interest in this game because I feel it accurately portrayed Batman and Bruce Wayne as different people (because Batman is more of a concept, an identity anyway really).
