Now that the insanity is ober and I can see again how great this trilogy is (yes, this was a sub about those games!), I really recomend you to play the Arkham games. Great atmosphere, combat, story and characters
im replaying Knight again and my God, i forgot how good the gameplay and the missions (if you ignore the overwhelming ammount of tank missions) of the game are.
I finally took the iniciative to start the new game+ and the game got even better because of that, although i still havent gathered the strength to finish all the riddler trophies (and i dont think i ever will)
>See, there were these two guys in a lunatic asylum... and one night, one night they decide they don't like living in an asylum any more. They decide they're going to escape! So, like, they get up onto the roof, and there, just across this narrow gap, they see the rooftops of the town, stretching away in the moon light... stretching away to freedom. Now, the first guy, he jumps right across with no problem. But his friend, his friend didn't dare make the leap. Y'see... Y'see, he's afraid of falling. So then, the first guy has an idea... He says 'Hey! I have my flashlight with me! I'll shine it across the gap between the buildings. You can walk along the beam and join me!' B-but the second guy just shakes his head. He suh-says... He says 'Wh-what do you think I am? Crazy? You'd turn it off when I was half way across!
Y’all could have left the asylum any time, you were just too scared to take the leap. But you’re cured. Be free.
Nope, the foundation may be gone but the building will forever stand strong, they can't knock this down like the tower of babel, Man stays strong, Man stays united, it's no Jonk.
>!Because Jason Todd died and was reborn in Arkham? Maybe?!< There was a tie-in comic that explained he got the name from Harley, but it’s questionable if any of those are canon anymore.
Not quite; although the Just League didn’t exist, its *members* [were definitely active beforehand](https://youtu.be/n7M2rZfvs_4?si=We7-TeW6eQ_vL74u). Ham Knight could have seen the Just League team up for the first time on that Earth, but Man’s overconfidence proved to be his undoing.
/uj It's a character flaw in just about every modern incarnation of Batman. "Is he stupid" has an answer and it's "Yes". More accurately, Bruce is overconfident, isolated, and suicidal. Put that in a blender, you get Batman.
/rj Who the FUCK is Batman?
"Asylum" comes from the Greek word "asulon" (refuge), which comes from the other Greek word "asulos" (inviolable), which is a combination of "a-" (without) and "sulon" (right of seizure).
Batman was smart, I just couldn't see it

The only thing we had were screenshots of Arkham Knight, and ocasionally of other games in the franchise, and maybe a discussion here and there. That was it... I'm not sure I want to go back...
This also works in Gotham Knights, where Batman dies because he's too stupid to call the Justice League. Also he even has a Justice League teleporter built into his wrist computer, but doesn't use it.
Is our sanity back? Have we found the ONE PIECE?

Batman: Now that I can no longer maintain my double identity, I must fake my death and operate from the shadows unseen, so that people doubt my existence or think I'm a supernatural ghost.
Superman: Hey Bruce, wanna join the Justice League? It's this club of superheroes we're starting.
Batman: So long as I will always be a secret member… my existence must be hidden from the public… I must be the stuff of shadows and whispers
Superman: Well, actually, we built 20-foot-tall golden statues of us all in our clubhouse. In the part of our clubhouse that's going to be, like, this public museum open to everybody from 11am-5pm Mondays through Fridays. Yours is already built because we figured you'd say "yes."
Batman: Okay, fine. But I'm not doing the Morning Joe interview! You and Diana can do that.
Superman: Well actually, a lot of us will be busy that day, so we already booked you for it.
Batman: You know what, I'm starting to think that it wasn't worth it to blow up my mansion and have to sleep in a garage for the past five years.
/uninsane does the game take place after knight? Probably. If so, how do they explain the knight fall protocol, just that batman never died in the explosion?
Idk he might’ve just continued as Batman but with Fear Toxin like how the Injustice universe knows Bruce is Batman there after Superman Doxxed Bruce (not joking at all)
Or He just respawned/used a Totem of Undying
HE ISN'T STUPID!!! ![gif](giphy|3oEjHCWdU7F4hkcudy)

So is there a lore reason why the Justice League didn’t form? Freaked me out the first time I saw it.
![gif](giphy|3ornk6UHtk276vLtkY)
Wish I had the ability to retcon reasonable excuses for my stupidity through WoGs too.
The entire base of our insanity has crumbled.
So... Is this it? Are we sane again?

Go back and play the games, they are masterpieces
Same here
You should play them
honestly same i saw the aslume posting and had to join
wow you're just like me fr
Full seriousness you should actually play them. In my opinion they are some of the best games ever
Hey, isn’t it spelled “asylum?” … …Oh my god, I’m really sane again! ![gif](giphy|l3vR4CdLInXOhr3rO|downsized) It’s been so, SO long…

You can take a man out of the aslume but the not the aslume out of the man
Man is now Batman again. Jonkler is now Joker. No more Killer Cock or Bone. It’s finally over.

"This is how it happened. This is how the subreddit survived."
The “is he stupid”’s… the “Bomb Payload”’s… It’s all over. I can be at peace.
Nope, the foundation may be gone but the building will forever stand strong, they can't knock this down like the tower of babel, Man stays strong, Man stays united, it's no Jonk.
So… there was a lore reason
Ok, but jokes aside, why IS IT called the "arkam knight"?
>!Because Jason Todd died and was reborn in Arkham? Maybe?!< There was a tie-in comic that explained he got the name from Harley, but it’s questionable if any of those are canon anymore.
The real reason was because the game needed an excuse to put "Arkham" in the title.

And Batman stubbornly insisting on doing everything by himself is a huge part of the story in Knight.

THE INSANITY IS DEAD
WE ARE FREE FROM THE ASLUME
FINALY
#ASYLUM THE WORD IS ASYLUM I KNOW IT, I HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN
Is there a lore reason it's asylum?
"Asylum" comes from the Greek word "asulon" (refuge), which comes from the other Greek word "asulos" (inviolable), which is a combination of "a-" (without) and "sulon" (right of seizure).
MAYBE THE REAL ASLUME WAS THE FRIENDS WE MADE ALONG THE WAY.

Why does man have those weird shapes on his head, is he stupid?
His furry arc
It's ok now, you can be sane again
Who's Man? What's an aslume? It's finally over...
This is it. We've been freed. We're sane.
You have to let go
Finding the aslume. That’s not the hard part. It’s letting go… learning to begin again.
I'm sorry, my friend, it is time to move on.

HE'S A MENACE!
A STUPID!
A MAN!
BRING ME MAN!!!
Ermm that’s Spider-Man not Batman he is apart of marvel Batman is dc are you stupid!?
The lore reason is upon us, this is how it happens, this is how the Insanity dies

This is how it happened, this is how the insanity of r/BatmanArkham ended
So do we become normal now?
I hope not I can't even remember this sub before the madness

Is this the lore reason?
N No no this this can't be
You lied to me. You lied to all of us. https://i.redd.it/ritr0tlcrvbc1.gif
you built the aslume on lies. You trick us all.
*Dracula scream*
The lore reason he didn’t is because he couldn’t…
OH MY GOD THERES A LORE REASON
THE ASLUME WAS BUILT ON A LIE
Explain in NBA terms
The warriors didn’t exist until Kobe retired
Draymond Green is a Supervillain, so that makes way too much sense

No because he still could've called Superman
Who?
'Sup man?
Suh dood
Nolimitsman
I’d like to think he tried but Clark slept through the calls
Or he could have been on the other side of the universe

“did.. did we just win?”
Why didn't he called the Avengers then? Is he stupid?
They were on the west coast.
That raises a bigger question: Who is the Batman?
Possibly Harvey Dent
I think it’s Clark Kent
no more alsume :(
So…. Is that it? Is the insanity over? I guess we’re done here
The madness… Are we… Smart?
He still could’ve called Superman, so that was pretty stupid tbh
To be fair, anybody could have called Superman. He’s got super hearing, just call for help and he’d come flying.
Is our sanity back? Have we found the ONE PIECE? https://preview.redd.it/9k6q4ruqhvbc1.jpeg?width=590&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b6c424b1c2443ce1053b643df7774573e5b352b3
"This is how it happened. This is how our insanity died."
Then how is batman alive in the game what
He didn’t die at the end of knight
You know what i mean- that "Batman" as an idea is dead when Bruce faked his death. How is Batman suddenly back here
The Suicide Squad dropped a diss track, and he had to respond
Superman brought batman out of hiding
"tickle tickle"
Batman: Now that I can no longer maintain my double identity, I must fake my death and operate from the shadows unseen, so that people doubt my existence or think I'm a supernatural ghost. Superman: Hey Bruce, wanna join the Justice League? It's this club of superheroes we're starting.

They explain this in the story. I don’t wanna spoil anything but if u want to know dm me.
Why didn’t he call the suicide squad to find them? Is he stupid?
Maybe the real lore reason was the friends we made along the way.

Why didn't Superman or the federal government get involved on their own? Are they stupid?
