Im gonna be honest, i prefer the newer one. Looks much easier to read the playscape without all the dark gritty glooomyness. Feels more like an animated show palette.
Aesthetics matter more than realism.
And people are saying that the aesthetics of all four previous Arkham games is easy better. Having watched some comparisons, I'd have to agree with them.
lol
Models look better. That’s about it imo. The ambiance is ruined in comparison.
I agree with you about the artistic choice of going for something flatter and more reminiscent of the animated show. Or perhaps of Fortnite, because let's not kid ourselves, they are aiming for that crowd. But I actually do like that art style! YMMV.
Yeah, as silly as it sounds, SS wasn't on my radar at all before this video. Now (and from the next videos that youtube fed me after) I'm considering it. Wish it was on a no-risk service like Game Pass.
