    Asylum will always be my favorite, even though I 100% see the argument for City being the better game. Just how dope Asylum was at the time and how it managed to use a lot of villains without feeling saturated, for the most part.

    City was dope because there was that coop mode where you could play as Nightwing, among other things. Really liked the more open setting also.

    Since the poll only lets me choose one I’ll go with Asylum for nostalgia reasons but City is just as dope if not better imo.

    Cutscenes and villain cast were p good. Just wish the world wasn’t so empty and the side missions weren’t so repetitive (mad hatter’s my fav. Arkham knight has a few too but it’s not this bad lol).

    I’m prolly most excited to play as nightwing and batgirl

    edit: also origins had a lot of cut and paste content like copperhead fight felt very similar to ra’s al ghul from city, Glue gun etc

    Think I’m probably in the minority here, but I enjoyed Origins the most. By no means is it the the best game in the series, it just felt so refreshing at the time for some reason. Different studio, new voice actors. The marketing was great, the music was great, and the combat and boss fights are the best in the series (that deathstroke fight).

    Voted City, but if you had half as much batmobile segments in Knight, I’d likely of voted that.
