Stereotypical Villain
Arcane
Remember the bat-nipple suit? 5.99$ with included Robin Romance module. Taste the rainbow.
I don't even remember what happened to him in City, lol. I was definitely thinking about the Animated version. And I did not know Perlman voiced him. Rock on!Clayface fell into the Lazarus Pit at the end of City, so he's certain to come back stronger than ever.
I hope Clayface doesn't return, he didn't really add anything to Arkham City, he just appeared out of nowhere and never left an impression on me. Not to mention that cheap stunt they pulled with him. Let him die in the Lazarus Pit or whatever.Clayface is one of my favorite sympathetic villains (okay, Frieze, too). Though I doubt he'll get that treatment.
Clayface in Batman: The Animated Series (voiced by Ron Perlman) was sympathetic and awesome, but Clayface in Arkham City was (Arkham-)Bane-level of DURRR. So nothing of value lost if I don't get to see him again.
It is possible for them to come up with a new iconic villain. For example, Harley Quinn was invented for the animated TV show.New made-up villain = blegh. But the Joker has been done to death and Mark Hamill is 'retired' from voice acting. Is Paul Dini writing for this one, too?
But Paul Dini was the guy that came up with Harley Quinn, and Paul Dini is not writing for this game. You'd need some kind of lucky talent, which is highly doubtful in the videogame industry.It is possible for them to come up with a new iconic villain.

No Dini script doctoring means the writing's probably going to be even worse than before.
That would be bad and not at all appropriate.I wish the combat wasn't shit........ Batman + dark souls combat

Yeah, pretty much. Hoping they add enough variety of fun sandbox mechanics and content to make up for bad writing.Arkham City - Rise of Sin Tzu.

The article hypes up how much better the polycount is over previous games and I can only think what an expensive waste that is.
I hope the driving feature creep works out for them.
Batman combat is fantastic..
Counters do minor damage in Arkham games. Counters kill in Assassin's Creed games.Batman combat is fantastic..
You mean mashing one button constantly? Yea i guess it's the epitome of combat games if you compare it to such classics as AC
Play on Hard? I mean yeah you can't die if you perfectly counter everything, but man it's just a boring way to play, it's on you for making the decision to play that way.Yea i finished both batmans by mashing 1 button, i want to gouge my eyes out and shoot myself.

She is certainly used that way by lazy writers, but that doesn't mean she wasn't a good idea for a character. Since the best batman villains are the embodiment of a mental disorder taken to extremes, she fits in perfectly to the setting. She is the batman universe's version of all those women who send murderers love letters and marriage proposals.It is possible for them to come up with a new iconic villain.

Honestly Harley Quinn is shit. Not even a proper villain in her own right just a trumped up moll for the joker. And, again, mostly for masturbatorial purposes.
You're right about her not being a "proper villain", but at the same time Robin isn't a proper superhero. They are both sidekicks.Honestly Harley Quinn is shit. Not even a proper villain in her own right just a trumped up moll for the joker. And, again, mostly for masturbatorial purposes.
