Season of infamy dlc


This is still too short IMO. Played ras Al guhl last night and liked it but not that hard and no boss fight :-(. Looks nice though. Will play through the others.

If you ask me, Season of Infamy was just unnecessary. It was basically Rocksteady saying, "we know we couldn't fit these characters into the Arkham Knight story, so... here you go." Okay, so they couldn't fit Mr. Freeze, Mad Hatter, Killer Croc and Ra's al Ghul into AK. Nothing lost. We can just assume Mr. Freeze took Batman's advice at the end of Arkham City, gave up his life of crime and focused on curing his wife.
Mad Hatter, I think his appearances in City and Origins were enough, he didn't really need to come back. We can just assume he disappeared or died or something.
Ra's al Ghul... he was killed at the end of Arkham City, so there was no need to bring him back. I know, he came back to life via a Lazarus Pit. Well, if that's the case, why didn't the League of Assassins resurrect Talia too?
Finally, Killer Croc... actually, I think his was the only mission that I think AK could've had. Croc has been a staple of the Arkham games since the beginning, so it would've been fitting to have him. They also should've included Zsasz. No idea why they left him out.

zsasz has cameo in the game.

As an Easter egg. Also, I doubt Batman would've ignored seeing him on surveillance footage.

Well, I decided to purchase the Season of Infamy Expansion pack and see for myself. I've done Shadow War and Wonderland so far. While I like Peter MacNicol as the voice of Mad Hatter, we really didn't need to have his character back again. He served his purpose and there was nothing new to bring to the table. Especially that new case of perpetual rhyming he does.
'Shadow War'... now this one was interesting and took some problem solving skills. And in the end, you can choose to cure Ra's al Ghul or "kill" him. SPOILERS!!! If you choose the latter, Batman doesn't actually kill him. He just sort of takes him off "life support". And if you choose to save Ra's... well, let's just Batman makes yet another bonehead decision in his quest to NOT kill anyone, even if they really deserve it, and someone else dies as a result.

Eventually I'll get to Killer Croc and Mr. Freeze, but so far, my favorite is Shadow War.
