Warner Bros. seems to confirm the launch of a new Batman game in 2020, bookworm* Fans everywhere have been preparing for everything they inhabit in the dark, just out of sight. The matching with the "Owl Court" needs to be further explored, which brings many problems in itself.
So far, clowns, penguins, and even Mr. Frazi have appeared in the Arkham franchise. Compared to hardcore people, "Owl Court" is not a real entity. They are certainly involved in many of the iconic Batman stories, but if you make a movie about them, you won't get 11 Oscar nominations and you won't crash Twitter. At best, an open mind makes those people laugh.
Video games are of course different, and if Bank of Montreal decides to go this route, it may be more interesting than some of the topics previously addressed. The first thing that comes to mind is that Arkham 4 (or 5 if Earl counts), may decide to be much heavier than his predecessor. This is not a bad choice either, as the next part of the series needs to be separated from the packaging. Asylum workers, cities, and Knight had strong ideas running through them when it came to mechanics, but this was five years ago. Trying to jump on the train makes no sense.
That's why a smarter approach is needed. For those who want to know, the Owl Court is a secret organization that lives in Gotham City and is believed to have controlled the city for decades. Just like Carmine Falcone's description in Batman, the idea is that even senior officials and police fight alongside the court, even if you don't know it from the outside. Bruce Wayne's hometown even sings nursery rhymes, which sums up the feeling, nothing more than an old lady's story. They hardly know …
Watch out for the Owl Court
Been watching
Dominate Gotham from the Shadow Perch
Behind granite and lime
They watch you by the fireplace
They look at you in bed and don't whisper
Otherwise they will give you claws
The question of who or what "The Talon" was immediately triggered, but small nuggets like this made it so prevalent in the game. The main goal of the court is to always control Gotham, and it is only a myth for those trying to eliminate them. This means that there must be a certain degree of manipulation behind the scenes, and this is where the claws come into play. Strictly trained assassins are responsible for organizing bids, and some are more capable than ever, but this is an area that Bank of Montreal can easily manipulate.
In previous games, Batman took on the concept of multiple enemies, but here it may be more focused. Instead of jumping from the famous villain to the famous villain, the Dark Knight must enter the lowest level of the court before entering the lowest level. You can do this with your brainpower and gadgets only if there is a change in the Shadow Revenge system. There are rumors that some of its members are real human / owl hybrids and you even have one of the early bosses. Because this is the title of Arkham, I believe that before the attack, we would encourage you to accidentally hit the wall, but this would be a good way to introduce this distortion and also make the game Much darker than it. senior. If you take it seriously and the artistic style is unpleasant, it will shake you a bit.
It's obvious why Bruce Wayne became a faction target. He is blocking the way. Obsessed with the hope that he could make Gotham stand out again (visible in almost every Batman comic or movie), the death sentence by the court was not good news for him. Actually, this is bad news. Death is not great, you know. However, it is interesting that Bruce may play a more important role. In some narratives, one of Bruce's earliest encounters with Owl was Wayne Towertop, at the time a claw named William Cobb was trying to murder him. He survived naturally, but dripped into his other roles, and then he began to learn the shocking truth about how Gotham really works.
In addition to the wonderful story, it became popular with the next iteration of Arkham Poetry. WB Montreal must understand that this is not giving us two more faces, and this is an area of inconvenient traffic, but is it starting from the near-death experience in the air like Bruce Wayne? I can see a lot of people buying it in the first ten minutes or more, so if you can go farther like Bruce and Batman, the more you can explore.
Here, the mentioned detective aspect of the game can also be extended and other characters introduced. Just in case the studio did want to borrow two elements from the madness, it seemed unfair and ruined everything that happened in the wider universe, but from the murder of Wayne's parents, Dick Gleason, Tim Drake , Jason Todd to Selina Kyle-they all have pivotal roles, and it's easy to repeat when it all rolls in. Not only will it make fanatics pop out of the roof, it's a much more niche story to tell. When you engage in a franchise that came out in 2009, I think it's important, if not necessary.
Although it may sound silly, WB Montreal may even partner with another studio under the guise of Warner Bros. to become an IO. I'm not saying that Agent 47 should fight with Batman, but the idea of a semi-open world, in which the goals are different, everyone has different difficulties, and the court has endless links. The fact that some of the more important faces will become the Gotham government or even a senior police officer-of course, with Jim Gordon's team will help with this-and you have an interesting template that can be used without giving up too much Under the premise of what Rocksteady has introduced; such as the combat system. If things change, I personally will cause the biggest trouble I can imagine. This is the case in modern times …
If nothing else, "Arkham 2020" can also benefit from a new advantage, which is not something many people can expect. At the heart of Owl are immortal themes, rituals, and outlandish weird customs, so there's no reason why anything imminent isn't more terrifying. Anyone who has played Batman VR will know that the last episode is creepy, and having the power of The Caped Crusader at your fingertips and being scared to death is a very abominable goal.
It subverts your expectations, and overall, that's exactly what the Owl Court can do. It seems that your usual criminal gang will soon become a larger part, and in a game where constant escalation and paranoia are essential to litigation, this is not a bad direction for the World Bank in Montreal. In many ways, this may be the only direction given the popularity of the manuscript. You have to dare to do something different.
Most likely this is a red herring, and in its place we will see the skull of Batman bash The Joker again, and that's fine. By reaching your toes into the Owl Court and ignoring the ideas I and I wrote here, conversely, or in short, the search for more claustrophobic experiences like asylum, there is huge potential.
Eleven years ago, Arkham was used as a base for the Joker Prince's operation, and given that a very prominent story in the comics focuses on a giant maze (or maze) designed to captivate and kill Bruce Wayne, this It says it all. Talking about Plonk among him, just saying that his goal was to escape. That can be frightening.
VG247 will have all the details when dropped, but now you are doing much worse than reading and self-educating at the Owl Court. Then you are ready. Otherwise I will waste your time. Sorry.
* No doubt I am also one of these nerds …
