completed Batman Arkham Origins more or less (completed plot, side missions, collected lore stuff)

if this is the weakest game in the series, then I am in for a very pleasant journey with the next three, because I liked this one a lot
it was pleasant, and I bugs I encountered were very minor

I even caught a hilarious one where the game crashed because it didn't find Games for Windows Live of all things

winter Gotham was very atmospheric, and finding all kinds of lore stuff here and there was enjoyable: Anarky tags the most, because they were equipped with based, reading them was like I was here on fedi again (Anarky is generally giga based in this game, cracking Batman's motivation open ez)

and usually I don't collect in-game trinkets

I greatly enjoyed Russian translation, too, usage of some more old-fashioned style and words sent me into glee I felt only when I was playing BOTW - I didn't nitpick even once, a rarity

this game showing more inner side and thoughts of its characters is greatly appreciated, too

also Batman here is an S-grade asshole, shows that he doesn't have Robin yet

I still have to play DLC about Mr. Freeze and I am hoping that it won't disappoint
