They are a chore, but worth it for the chance to whip his ass. I just finished, got that 100% ending
Thanks for the encouragement. That's how I felt when I activated the protocol. Liked it a lot

Man, I felt so dumb. I'm doing the Riddler's challenge where you have to stop the rioter bomb guy with the remote boomerang. After a few fail attend where you have to manual the remote boomerang through the electric and hitting the guy, I decides to shoot the guy with the remote electrical gun and booyah, Riddler solved..LOL.

You have to 100% the game to get the Knightfall ending anyway.
Well there it is
One of the more time-intensive plats I've got, save had me at 66 hours.
The save file hours is not 100% accurate--it doesn't count time spent in free roam after the story mode ends unless you hit a save point. You probably spent 5-10 hours more than that actually playing the game.
It's glitchy, but a failproof method is to do the Predator Fundamentals AR challenge (accessed through free roam, not the main menu). You can do all takedowns there except for the ceiling glass takedown, which can be done in the bank heist, for example. Make sure to hit Continue and not Retry so the game saves your takedowns.
Hit square a few times to change the filters.

There was one where I couldn't find electricity to through the batarang through and I was getting so mad, kept leaving and coming back to it. Then lightbulb went off and I was like "I'm an idiot, REC Gun will get the job done" Ashamed of how long it took me to figure it out haha.

I'm 3 trophies off getting this and they are such a goddamn pain in the ass. Leap of faith, the bridge one and all the predator takedowns.

wat???... now I felt even dumber..ok, time to not take Batman's advise seriously.
Go to your saves in the PS4 settings. The file there shows playtime.
Btw when I filtered on the gotham greatest's lb I got nothing, maybe it's my connection

Pretty sure this game has a memory leak issue on ps4. Where extended play can lead to worse performance, pop in seems to get worse overtime. And then the game starts to hang up a bit with a bat symbol loading in the corner.
Try first person mode, man. It really helps with any chase segment.
If you haven't figured it out yet, use the machine gun on the flying drones. It makes them way easier to hit than trying to use the cannon, and they go down fast.
That's fine, just don't write a Kotaku article about it.
Yeah, I'm just not fast enough and forget to dodge.
Can't you use the disrupt or on their guns?
Hmmm I'l try again but I thought it said it didn't work on big gun the last time I tried.
It may need to be upgraded. I can't remember. If you're talking about the guys that swing them at you, then you can definitely disrupt them.

I don't understand that reference!
Yeah ok it's working now. Thanks

I don't think its awesome.
Yeah, it works, but there is too much of it and much of it just plain sucks. It should have been something additional to what we had before, not something so pivotal and, dare I say at times, hamfisted.

Yep, I would not have gotten the platinum trophy had it not been for the Scarecrow missions counting towards the 69 stars.
Those tank AR challenges are just too hard. I don't know how the youtubers are pulling it off, but I will never touch that shit ever again. I just get overwhelmed too easily.
So huh... I'm a 84% right now. Only thing left to do are some
Alfred just called me to tell me that
is ready... Should I activate it right away or wait for the rest of the 100% to be done?
"Own the Roads", Occupy Gotham, Campaign for dissarmement and obviously a ton of Riddler bullshit.

Up to you. If you're not at 100% it'll
give you a taste then bring you back
Depends on if you wanna Riddler it up.
So basically if you're not at 100% it gives you a glimpse at the 100% ending?

yup!
All right thanks. I guess I'll wait then!

Disappointing, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised. So long as PC doesn't get dicked out of the DLC and its buyers refunded, like Wii U did with Arkham Origins.

True. Explosive gel is a one hit KO on them even with no upgrades. But only near a destructible wall. Unfortunately, double disruptor doesn't explode those guns if I remember correctly.

The PC fixes will surely come soon. They have to. They've got to. They wouldn't make us sit and watch the entirety of the 6 months of DLC go by while we wait for fixes.
Please, Rocksteady.
A writer at Kotaku wrote an article not too long ago complaining about that exact part of the game and how it causes the game to suffer overall, then added on that they hadn't finished the story yet, so a lot of key details were missing.
Bare minimum will be a month before we get a patch and they forget about us.

I just did the part where
You defend GCPD from a shit ton of drones while Barbara hacks some of them.

For me, satisfying was clearing out a large room with a ton of thugs without taking damage and in one combo. Thats what I expect in a Batman game, not Twisted Metal: Gotham.
In the story, I didn't mind some of the bat tank, it was fun in small doses, but by the end it was "oh fuck ANOTHER one." None of them were too ridiculously difficult even on Knightmare (NG+), but damn did they get old.
The AR batmobile combat challenges can absolutely burn in HELL. My god fucking hated those. As I said earlier, thank goodness that the scarecrow challenges are mildly easier way to get 9 of the 69 stars. Otherwise I would not have gotten the platinum trophy.
I am tempted to get the season pass, but I absolutely will be taking a wait and see approach to make sure the content is worth a damn.

I do both. They're both polished to a tee. Would be lying if I were to say that I wasn't half expecting the batmobile to feel clunky.

I really don't like the real ending being locked away behind a shitton of sidecontent. Grinding out icons on the map to see the ending (not even talking about the 100% one) is just not fun. A big blemish on an otherwise great game. I thought the batmobile was a great addition to the game, tankmobile less so, but it wasn't unbearable. Arkham Origins still remains my favourite Batman game.

Finally
I wouldn't have minded if every sidequest was tied to characters, and felt like it had a bit of a story to it, like
man-bat or even Hush, however short that was.
a melee fight with Deathstroke, but that turns out to be another tank battle, that makes those 3 questlines feel like even more of a chore.
Jinjo

Exactly. I enjoyed the shorter sidequests, but going through so many towers and bombs? Nope.gif. And now I hear it's not even worth it (I thought/hoped the same thing would happen), I'm not gonna bother. I'll youtube the real ending. A shame really, cause the main storyline was quite good (while not the best batman story I still enjoyed it a great deal).
I feel dumb, I don't really get the ending :/ Got the 100% one and I don't understand what is going on xD Ending spoilers:
I get that the explosion was likely a fake-out and they never actually died. Kinda weird to leave all that car and plane tech just outside though but I digress. But the true ending with demon batman was so weird. I don't remember how it looked in-game but the concept art has a red/burning bat logo on the chest piece. Does that mean that Red Hood is now some sort of supernatural batman? Batman Beyond?! It did look kinda similar to the Batman Begins fear toxin batman I guess. Has Rocksteady said anything about future dlc dealing with the aftermath or some such? I heard that the Red Hood preorder stuff is far post-ending.
It's
just an open ending. The current story is concluded, but that last bit is just a tease, I don't think Rocksteady have concrete plans for it going forward. It just shows there's a new Batman, and that maybe he's even using Scarecrow's toxin to instill fear. It's most likely this, because iirc that's how Scarecrow saw Batman when he got a taste of his own medicine.
