Yep–I think you have exactly one fight before they tell you about detective mode. It’s super-useful, so useful that I found myself entering fights with it on. IMO it’d be better if it automatically turned off once you attacked or entered a new scene. I found myself leaving it on and then forgetting to turn it off until mid-fight, at which point it was too late.
Well this game is awesome as predicted. I really like how you start off with most of your gadgets from the last game. I also like the greatly expanded leveling system. Traversing the city is very cool though the fights are pretty spread out. The integration of all of his super villains is very well done. Voice acting and script are awesome as before. The rules for all of the riddler puzzles aren’t very clear though. Otherwise very badass game.
Who else is playing?
Got it and am playing it in 3D. Not too far into it yet. I think they have made a number of improvements, but I don’t really like the way the Riddler stuff is handled so far. Those pressure pads are driving me crazy.
Well all that “polish” they did that delayed the PC version didn’t seem to help much. The DX11 version is a buggy mess. Rocksteady is advising you play with DX9 on. To add insult to injury my copy of the game came without the key to unlock the Catwoman missions. What happened? Arkham Asylum was a really solid PC port.
