I know what you mean, he just has a more erratic energy about him that I love

Because he is the best joker in the arkham series

He’s more Sinister and unpredictable…. The older Joker relies on gags and punchlines more, but still dangerous

Because it’s Troy baker, he’s amazing. I love mark hamil but damn Troy baker is perfect lol

He's actually, genuinely unpredictable.

I agree. The facial expressions alone sell it. You can see that he's already thinking of all the horrible stuff he'll do to try and break batman's moral code

At that point, Joker is questioning why did the man who turned who he is now (Because of the Red Hood reference from Killing Joke storyline as Batman made normal Joker who dressed up as Red Hood fall to the ace chemical) risked his life to safe him. Joker is also losing his purpose on his life ever since he's falling to the ace chemical and has a bleached pale skin and green hair and losing his sanity. He's doing crimes to cope out his grief and when Batman saved him, he realizes he found his new purpose: Making Batman lose his sanity by killing him or somebody, making Batman break his no killing rule.

In his eyes... Batman was the insane one

It’s not a relationship. But it makes the Joker realize how unique the Batman is, seemingly incorruptible despite harboring all this violence and rage. The Joker’s obsession begins with the idea of breaking Batman after his open display of doing the right thing, of responsibility even in the face of the irredeemable. He believes that deep down, Batman’s ‘stubborn righteousness’ is a front, that they are equally insane as the other in reality, despite the madness only truly being one-sided.

Joker lives for the sake of breaking things. But Batman is someone he's never been able to break.

Whats terrifying is how pathetic and thirsty harley is

She was already broken, he just ended the job.

Didn’t brake her, just manipulated her. Scary thing is it often happens in real life too.

Bro Joker didn't even manipulated her. Joker literally told Harley his story about his one bad day and how he met Batman, and Harley thought Joker was talking about her.

​@@Xul-Xataharley love bombed herself

Tnx to Troy Baker XD

Me too, his voice is so smooth! Troy Baker has his own take to voice Joker not just being Mark Hamill's copycat.

​@@margarethmichelina5146 He and John DiMaggio are the perfect successors now that Hamill retired.

Joker loves to play games, but he also loves breaking things. So it's really a matter of having mixed feelings about breaking his favorite toy. He wants to break it, but then he'll miss not being able to play with it anymore when it's gone.

also have to understand this is a younger batman. So he's not really used to his antics. just fantastic writing

I counted the time it took him to come back and yeah, you're right

Even Gotham Knights which take place outside Arkham verse has better Batman death scene than that SS game. And both of Gotham Knights and Arkham Origins made by Warner Bros. Montreal but they both are still respecting Batman's lore and characters well

No way in fresh hell that game is connected to the Arkham universe Cuz that would be the stupidest way to kill Batman in any form

It connected to the Arkham series but in another universe, they bringing joker into as a playable character and the joker doesn’t even look like Arkham Joker and in the original Arkham series Joker dead

@@Nitolordgrave in suicide squad it was the joker from the another universe and timeline but it is the same universe with Arkham series

We fans all agree that SS is not Canon.

Theres quite a few people that can match hamil dont let nostalgia blind you

It's Troy Baker himself not Mark Hamill in ARKHAM ORIGINS

Nah. As ok as Troy is, the guy who voices Joker in the Injustice games is the best after Mark. He should take over now Mark's retired

NGL, this Joker was really terrifying. The way he yells at Electricutioner and then just kills him. No other joker comes close.

I completely agree, imo Troy does an absolutely amazing job at playing/voicing a younger Joker and just my opinion but I personally love this version more than the older Jokers, I just love the energy and clumsiness Troy and the animators give this earlier version of the character, yes he may not be as callous and calculating but that’s part of the reason I love it, he’s just a silly (and very homicidal and apathetic) guy having his fun

This proves just how heartless Joker is, and how he’s a monster, who kills innocent lives just for a laugh.

@@dbass9894 And Batman still tries to save him

@@hayleyyeager8008Jason Todd was right. Batman should’ve killed The Joker earlier. I get it’s his code not to kill but how many more lives he could’ve saved if he just murdered the clown?

@@ilikepancakes2368 But If he did, he’d probably go into a massive Killing Spree against all his Rouges Gallery, to the point where he’s the only person Locked up in Arkham Assylum Think of Injustice, but It’s Batman who snaps

Love that scene!!!

Yeah, I was truly feeling that. He was actually terrifying for a change. And then he followed through with it.

Moments like this is exactly why I put Origins above any other Arkham game. Main story, villains, characters interactions are just so solid everywhere.

It’s obvious that no one puts joker toxic on that woman. No one can steal Joker’s tools.

He doesn’t look even remotely terrified what?

Nah, still looking good

@ that means an updated version for the new systems idiot.

@ but a remaster would probably lead to modern console ports so console players who aren't stuck 2 generations behind can play origins kinda like what return to arkham did (plus more consistent framerates as consoles have less lag spikes by nature)

​@The only way for both PS4 and PS5 owners to play it is through streaming with a subscription. The quality isn't always the best unless you gave great internet. The game ends up looking bad and pixelated and the combat is super hard due to input delay. It needs a remaster.

It’s a good game but to say it’s better than Asylum is a stretch.

​@@ilikepancakes2368 no it isn't. I get asylum was great on it's time but that's it, only on it's time, it was limited. Arkham city was clearly superior by 1000 miles, and origins is on pair with city. Asylum just got old in terms of gameplay and story, the rest of Arkham games are way better.

​@@ilikepancakes2368I just played asylum and it's just not better than origins.

@@ilikepancakes2368time was definitely not friendly to Arkham Asylum. It’s still a good game, but MAN, that was definitely rocksteady’s first game. A very clunky game, a lot of foundational stuff that City, Origins and Knight steamed out.

It's the best in the series to me. Asylum is a close second.

LOL

Sean Craig? Don't you mean Roger Craig Smith?

@@Fishboy. sorry I get those two mixed lol

@Fishboy. "Sheva Sheva, come on, come on come on" resident evil 5 the best res E game ever

@@slayer4501 you're good

Also Ezio Auditore.

So true man

Oh Roger absolutely can pull off a Punisher.

Sonic-?

Literally no one does stop lying

​@@axesus6966 What are you talking about? I've seen plenty of people complain about this game. As for the reason, they don't have a _good_ reason for hating it. Some say they hate it because Joker is the main villain again and thus the game is somehow copying Arkham City, which it isn't, the stories are completely different. Others suggest it is the gameplay that is repetitive and copying Arkham City, However, in all fairness, the gameplay hasn't changed much from Asylum to City. The *_REAL_* reason people don't like this game is because Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill are not in it. It is a _dumb_ reason to not like it because Roger Craig Smith and Troy Baker did a fantastic job. I know this is the reason because before the game even came out, people were bitching about this in the comment sections for the trailers. I vividly recall their complaints, and this was before the game was even released. So no, he isn't lying, you just don't know what you are talking about.

I personally like it, the boss fights are better, the NPCs are competent and have some funny dialogues, even some of Riddler's side quest is tricky just to reach it.

Hmm when you compare it to the other arkham games it doesn't feel as good as them and I believe the biggest issue was the performance issues the game had for consoles plus the disaster of the PC release

@@LucrassKelvacno one hates it lmao - it was rated exactly what it was, not amazing but not terrible either. There comes a point where if enough people say somethings underrated it’s not underrated anymore lol

None of the villains joker hires bar Bane are his arch enemies. Maybe Death stroke

@tobyknight8811 Not all the villains in this game are hired by Joker. Such as Penguin, Death Stroke, and Riddler (also making his story debut here apparently. Was Fire y hired as well? Been ages since I played it. Game is great, but I just have a hard time seeing it as Canon (despite the references in arlham knight). I like to think this takes place in the same universe as Gotham Knights (especially since I believe Batman is voiced by the same actor in both games); and what was referenced in Arkham knight was some parallel past account of what happened.

It’s a whole different universe so I guess this was the route they decided to take. In other incarnations, Batman doesn’t meet the rest of his rouges gallery until years into his career. I think it would’ve been better if they just kept The Joker, Bane, Black Mask, and the assassins while leaving out Penguin and Riddler.

No no no arkham origins is canon despite the fact it's not acknowledged although referenced in the later games hell origins has hinted about about asylum so this game is much bigger than anyone realizes when it comes to the Arkham timeline

That's the Arkham series for you LOL.

Same

Same here

Agreed

A really good sfm animation

@@shaunmckinney521 oh EXTREMELY good, its just its got the same sort of lighting and faces as those sorts of things.

@@trustindean5164It’s the facial animations for me

Also, around 22:38, it's foreshadowing of how Batman carried Joker's body in Arkham City

​@@margarethmichelina5146This is a stretch. Lifting a man over your head and slamming him to the ground isn't anything like carrying him in your arms.

@@TheFirstCurse1 I know but it's almost similar to that moment

It did. I always recommend it. Arkham Knight had the better combat but main the boss for this game AND Story are miles better.

The facial animations and lighting

6:15

That is smart bane The one from asylum after the TN-1 aftermath made him dumb as a potato and STILL says "Bruja" I think he just has trouble pronouncing Spanish words

He has a speech impediment ig

Batman doesn’t work like that

New to Batman, huh? Don’t worry, you’ll pick things up quick.

if you want an easy answer, they were made by different game company, if you want a lore answer, he's just getting old :)

I don't think arkham is known for taking care of their inmates physical well being 😂

Age

😂 you're funny. Because anyone who hates this game is a child. 😂

Who asked?
