Elaboration:

Not paying full price for a PC port that they can't give two shits about enough to put the game at 60fps. Mods for that come out within days of release usually, showing how truly lazy the devs are. That kind of attitude doesn't deserve my money. I don't have much time for games as it is, and I'm not going to putz around with games that can't at least give the option for 60fps.

Apparently the PC port has WAY more issues than that anyway.

The game has been a [parasitic bomb] sandwich since the DLC train was announced, holding hostage a boatload of [parasitic bomb], characters included, for the DLC preorder storm. I don't play that [parasitic bomb]. Much less when the PC port is an afterthought with no options, 30fps locked, glitches galore. I'll get it for 5$ on sale 3 years down the road when the DLC is included and the patches are out to make it at least base level acceptable. That is the best you can hope for with AAA garbage these days, and it is really [tornado fang]ing sad.

Do you have any of the next-gen consoles?

To further Objection Man's point (and if anyone have the time)...

Personally, I can probably accept the PC version running at 30 FPS since I have an idea of how Arkham City plays out on PS3, but a port this badly gimped and optimized? No thanks, I rather sell out $400 on a PS4 and get that version instead unless a Wii U port happens like it did for City and Origins since getting a PS4 isn't on my priorities at the moment. Not to mention it eats up 45-55GB of hard drive space. That's just as bad as Final Fantasy XIII's PC port.

I stopped watching once he said Blackgate was terrible. I really enjoyed that game while Origins proper was just meh.

My sister was playing earlier tonight and legit fell out her chair when

I wish I was there to see that. It definitely gave me a jump, but not quite like that.

And what are you saying about the PS4? Cause this game is perfect on that, as is every game I've played on it. I'm extremely happy with the PS4.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

No I meant what happened to Phi's actual PS4 hardware...

-EDIT-
I stopped watching once he said Blackgate was terrible.
If it's any consolation to you, the TL;DW version is TotalBuscuit said even Blackgate was far better programmed and optimized than Arkham Knight, despite not liking the former.

No, depending if you count the WiiU or not (which I personally don't). This gen I've fully converted over to PC as my primary platform.

In the meantime, I'm loving every second of the PS4 version.

A follow-up from TotalBuscuit in regards to the recent events of Arkham Knights PC (00:35-07:57).

YES. THAT.

I did that part yesterday, and it scared the [parasitic bomb] out of me.

I actually had to do it twice because a tank killed me, and it equally shocked me the second time, as you never know when he's going to suddenly pop out at you.

Oh yeah I jumped and yelled "What the hell?!" when that happen. This game has a good number of jump scares in it.

Also did anyone initial jump or get spooked during the ACE Chemical Building arc? You know what I'm talking about, I mean we knew it was coming, though I wasn't expecting it like that.
