With the announcement of a new Batman VR game this week, Tam and Lucy lament the fact that there's no new Rocksteady Batman on the horizon, and wonder if WB has squandered the Bat. #gaming #batmanarkham #gamespot

I would love to see Rocksteady get a chance to do Arkham Beyond. A Batman Beyond game set in a cyberpunk high tech low life world would be an amazing evolution of the arkham gameplay. But judging by the current state of the industry and Zaslav's WB, Rocksteady probably won't even be around by 2026.

They should've just done an Arkham Beyond type game where Bruce Wayne remains in the shadows as "The guy in the chair", which wouldn't mess with Arkham Knight's ending. And what's sad is that the cancelled Damian Wayne game was sorta going off that idea. Either that or just let the franchise rest in peace, for good, and start a new Batman universe.

I know WB is obsessed with getting a Fortnite ripoff to land cos if it does, you can just print money; however, their 2 attempts have failed big time and must have lost them a lot of money. They must know a good, story driven Superman or Batman game would sell really well and make them some cash back (especially if they do that greedy WB thing where you need to buy the skins). I genuinely have no idea what they're thinking. I know i didn't mention this new VR thing, but that's because it's a non-entity.

There's crafting and Survival in an open world in Song In The Smoke. Current VR is full of great experiences. Price is still an issue, including PSVR 2, but it's definitely a worthwhile experience. RE Village is a whole different type of experience in VR. If you like classic arcade games, there is no experience that competes with Masternoid. Gran Turismo 7 is a great game, it's Even better in VR.

If there was going to be another Batman Arkham game in the works, then I wanted it to be Batman Arkham Legacy but if Arkham Shadow works out then there may still be hope for Batman Arkham Legacy. But this Arkham game isn't gonna be on gaming consoles it's gonna be on Meta Quest as a VR game, only VR game that's ever been made was Batman Arkham VR. I want this game to be on gaming consoles where we see Batman move, talk, fight, and save the day.

Remember when games were interesting and fun, i miss that feeling. Now its micro transactions, online require check ins, upselling ads, and betraying the consumers trust (example is the crew and Ubisoft). The more publishers do these tactics, the more gamers catch on and refuse to play games, resulting in another video game crash and/or possible video game depression.

I stand by my opinion that Gotham Knights is actually a good game. I played it after all the hate died down. I bought it on a sale, and combat definitely started off as slow as it looked in the trailers, but the story was pretty good and it was nice that the other heroes we love from that story actually all got to shine. The upgrades actually did make combat and traversal more engaging the nore you played as well. Co Op was fun as well though it desperately needs a matchmaking system for its dlc mode honestly.

Would’ve been a PSVR2 exclusive if Sony acquired them after Iron Man like they should’ve. Ryan Payton have been talking about wanting to do Batman since Iron Man so it’s definitely developer-driven. They couldn’t port Iron Man to Quest 2 and had to get another team to do it, so it’s no surprise Batman is Quest 3 only, they can’t work with Quest 2 limitations. Iron Man’s flight was very well done for motion sickness so surely they’ll nail Batman’s slower gliding, I wouldn’t worry about that as I get motion sickness too. It’ll probably be more melee combat and detective gameplay anyway. Also, Nexus was the most exciting AC game I’ve played in years, people who don’t play enough VR shouldn’t really be talking about VR, they end up coming off as (unintentionally) spreading misinformation. I could just as easily say Alyx “came and went” when that’s the only game media pundits ever respect. Wait for the proper SGF reveal before having conversations like this off a tiny CG teaser.

1) This game was funded by Meta. Without VR, it would not exist at all. 2) Motion sickness in VR has been vastly overblown. It's not a case of "you get it, or you don't but most people get it." It's more complicated than that. People who are truly sensitive to motion sickness, also have trouble playing regular games, especially FPS games. If you can play FPS games without getting motion sick, this is not you. Modern VR is well-past the point of the hardware itself being the cause motion sickness. However, that doesn't mean you can jump in and play any VR games you want. While simple VR games, where you stand in place and walk around using your real legs, won't cause any problems due to there being no disconnect between your eyes and inner ear, that's not the case with "advanced" VR games, where you move yourself around using the thumbstick. This is the origin of most people's "I can't play VR, I get motion sick" belief, advanced VR games, due to the disconnect between your eyes and your inner ear, require your body to go through a period of adjustment. This is something everyone can do, it's the same process that causes the motion sickness people experience in cars and on ships to go away. All you need is gradual exposure. Play an advanced VR game for a little bit until you start to feel a bit queasy, then stop and take a break. Repeat, and you'll be able to play for longer and longer until the problem goes away entirely. This is something everyone needs to go though to be able to play advanced VR games, and it's someone everyone can do. It can take time, it took me about one month before I was able to successfully play through the airboat section in Half-Life 2: VR!

It being a Meta exclusive is a big problem. Exclusivity is one of the major obstacles in the world of VR, you have to triple check each game: - 1st is it an exclusive - 2nd can your PC play it? - 3rd does it have accessibility options for VR newbies (teleportation please)
@fireazaАй бұрын
Point one is only the really pressing one. But since Meta headsets dominate the market, that's honestly not much of an issue for most people. Point 2 hasn't been a major issue in years, a modern mid-range gaming PC can handle most VR games, save for power-hungry outliers like MS Flight Sim. Point 3 is pretty much a standard feature in any studio release, it tends to only be smaller indie games that don't include any comfort settings.
