WB and Rocksteady cut some corners looking to make a quick cash grab, and judging by the amount of pre-orders, it's already worked. But that is not what happened here, not by a long shot.
#WARNER BROTHERS BATMAN ARKHAM KNIGHT PC PC#
These are both huge names in the industry and can easily afford to hire the best of the best when it comes to a pc port. But this flub isn't on Iron Galaxy Studios, no this is Warner Bros. Apparently Rocksteady outsourced the port to Iron Galaxy Studios, a 12 man team known primarily for console work. I didn't just think, but knew it would be up to par with previous outings in the series.Boy was I wrong.
#WARNER BROTHERS BATMAN ARKHAM KNIGHT PC SERIES#
I had high hopes for this game as Rocksteady's take on the Batman series has been incredible and one of my favorite franchises of all time. My PC's specs perfectly match the "Ultra" requirements, except instead of one GTX 980, I have two, which believe it or not, seems to performance even worse. In contrast, The Witcher 3 on Ultra settings would barely go over 2.5 gb's of vram even at 1440p, and it's graphics are incredible. I have no idea how the vram is getting taxed so hard when the textures look dated at best. What's worse, even Ultra doesn't look great by any means. These issues are most likely stemming from the fact that "vram" usage is reportedly going as high 5gb's and above on "Ultra" settings. As of now, this port puts "Assassin's Creed: Unity" to shame. There are serious framerate issues (dropping as low as 12 frames per second occasionally, and into the low 20's frequently, and by the way, this is after removing the 30fps cap that it comes with out of the box), crashes, and just all around horrible performance and optimization. As of now, this port puts "Assassin's Creed: This is by far the worst port I have ever attempted to play. This is by far the worst port I have ever attempted to play. It's a game that relies on fast paced fluid combat and hectic car driving sequences both of which are an absolute nightmare at this frame rate. It is so unplayable that I can't actually review the game itself, as I can't get beyond 20 minutes of it before the constant frame rate stuttering gives you eye ache. It takes some going to outdo Assassin's Creed: Unity in the "did you even playtest this thing before release?" stakes, but Arkham Knight comfortably achieves that and more. The laziest port I've seen of a game in a long, long time. Anyone giving this a positive score either hasn't played it, is outright lying, or has mistakenly left a review on the PC version Metacritic page when they in fact played it on console. It takes some going to outdo Assassin's Creed: Unity in the "did you even An utterly unplayable mess.
