Well there's your problem. Arkham City has its problems - glaring ones particularly in the writing - but it's a great game and well liked for a reason.
What do you remember from me that makes you think im picky? I dont even post here much. And some of you guys are idiots for being so defensive about it. I wasn't attacking the game. I said I liked the combat system but i'm just surprised others give it so much praise. Learn to comprehend.
Noooo nooo nooo you guys are completely missing the point. I LIKED it. Im just saying with a combat system as easy as that Im just surprised its so heavily praised around here. And I played it for 15 minutes :P All you did was fight. There's more to the Arkham games than fighting. Did you play AA?

If you find it's too easy, play it on hard, and then there's New Game + where it's even harder. You get to keep all your upgrades and Riddler trophies, but enemies a lot tougher earlier on, and it removes the indicator.
TC I am disappointed. You don't just play only 15 minutes of the highest rated game this generation. That's your first fault. Secondly, this game has arguably the most fluid and amazing combat system of any game out there, definitely makes you feel like Batman. Also you don't just mash X, there are a ton of different enemies throughout the game and you will never beat the game just mashing X. As in matter of fact I dare you to play the next 30 minutes and see how far X will get you.
I just got the game from my friend (havent started it yet) and I played the demo before. I thought it was pretty cool and the combat was cool. But literally all it seemed I had to do was mash X the whole time and he'd do all these crazy combos. It doenst seem hard at all, like no skill involved lol. Honestly im fine with it though. Its fun to me but I thought people on here would hate such a easy combat system. Ok I always thought that it was just easy because well of course, I was playing the demo so maybe just the demo level was easy, but I'd ask my friends "All I had to do in the demo was keep pressing X and he'd combo for days. Does it get anu harder or was that just easy because it was the demo level?" And they will usually just say "Nope thats pretty much the way it is the whole time." I was kind of hoping for somewhat of a challenge at least but oh well, maybe they're wrong.

The fighting against melee opponents offers near zero challenge, even against armored foes. fighting the group of bad guys with guns is a lot harder.
Wow I didnt expect people here to be THIS dumb :/ I said I liked it.IcyFlamez96
What do you expect? When you come out and say that it's your opinion that the combat is shallow and you can't see how it's so acclaimed and then admit you've only played 15 minutes, you really can't blame people for being a bit passionate about it and calling you out on it. A lot of the combat systems in games start out as very rudimentary at the start. Batman's no different. That's not indicative of the whole package though.
[QUOTE="IcyFlamez96"]Wow I didnt expect people here to be THIS dumb :/ I said I liked it. We are dumb? You are bashing on arkham city after 15 MINUTE PLAYTHROUGH! You are the pot calling the kettle black. Arkham city is a great game that cannot be judged until at least one playthrough. Probably even more, this thread is beyond stupid and goes to show what a moron you are.
