This game drops in 27 hours and change! Who is getting it?!

I'll be cracking it open in the weeee hours of Friday mernin', probably around 12:30a (MH permitting..).

Anyone have a gauge on the supposed length of this puppy? Arkham City length? (I think someone said their ILLEGALLY DOWNLOADED game had a similar size..)


As always folks, mind the spoilers.. SWEAR TO MEEEEH!

Why not sign up for a (free) account?
   
 
I'm done with everything that shows up on the map. All that I have left are the Anarchy and Pink-something scans. I don't have any desire to get those though.

OHHH, right. Yeah, those are tough! I have a good deal of them, but...so many others I just don't have. Is there an in-game "list" somewhere, or a suggested place to look? I've tried to use my noggin' (I mean, they're generally all BUSINESSES or something, yes?), but I'm still missing a few.

You did the Enigma stuff? How'd you like the secret room? I let out a "*gasp*, WHAT?" when I picked up...well, you know.

Honestly I was a little disappointed. With pretty much all the Enigma stuff now that we're talking about it. Very few took actual figuring out. Most of them were just unlocked after getting an item. The first Riddler trophy was cool, but I just spent however many hours running around getting the same thing in a different form.

I dunno. Yeah, you're right about some of it, but the way he was talking about things in this game, he was SURPRISED that Batman was able to figure out stuff, so maybe he amped it up for Arkham City? I dunno. Thoughts.

Sounds like Mr. Freeze is coming in some DLC. (Link)

Just finished the new DLC. It was fairly in line with the rest of the game's quality. Again to me it feels like what works well here is all the stuff Rocksteady had previously made.

The only DLC I have access to (in a sense) is the Blackgate game. Haven't started it yet. Hmm.

@Mr_Mustache

I played the demo for that and thought it was pretty awful. Way too restricted to recreate the Arkham gameplay adequately.

Has anyone else experienced the game hard locking on the title screen? Four times in a row I've had to force my Wii U to shut down because the game would freeze while checking for add-on content. I'm afraid to try again 'cause I don't want my saves to go corrupt.

EDIT: Well, apparently it already is corrupt. The game managed to get as far as to let me press + on the title screen this time, which showed me that my save has reverted to 0% completion. Then it hard locked on me again. So now I've deleted all my Arkham Origins related files on the console and started over. The game's intro is playing right now, but who knows for how long it will keep up this time. Screw Warner Bros. for refusing to release any further patches.

@r_hjort

Whats happening? Corrupt? Did you lose stuff / are you going to? Terrible.

Man, sorry, I was writing while reading. Bummer Central.
Any idea on what happened? Sorry, pal. Anyway I can help you from afar?

@Mr_Mustache
Yeah, I lost all my progress, which is frustrating, but now I'm replaying the game and I'm actually enjoying myself. The parts I liked are still fun and the ones I didn't like as much go by much faster now since I come prepared for them. Thanks for offering to help, but it's ok.

After looking around on the internet it seems lots of people playing this game on various platforms have had freezing issues like mine, so at this point I'm mostly pissed off at Warner Bros for not respecting their customers. It's not like I have to fear this sort of thing happening while playing Super Mario 3D World or anything. Bah!
