Batman: The Enemy Within

I would have give 9.5 stars if possible. Too shame they don't make games like this anymore ? Lot of action and good plot not get bored moments like the first one. I enjoy this game much more than sometimes hideous difficulty Arkham Series even though I love them too .. Characters and voice acting is better and improved graphics . Characters feel sometimes little bit silly and funny but that's a good thing that Batman series can add humour otherwise naturally much more dark Gotham city that screams for colour and world Always needs good stories with focused and deep storytelling and inspiration.

The first thing to note about the Enemy Within is how much it improves on every other telltale game. The Enemy Within presents a multilayered, lengthy plot which is a nice refresher after the short and thin plots presented in A New Frontier and Guardians of the Galaxy. Then there's the choices, and while your decisions won't break the space time continuum, it's safe to say this is the most your choices have mattered since the first season of the Walking Dead. Furthermore, telltale FINALLY goes back to delivering a solid conclusion as the first season of Batman, a New Frontier, and Gurdians of the Galaxy all had very disappointing final episodes that left me unsatisfied. It's even more impressive considering that there is more than one final episode based on your choices, and both finish off the season perfectly despite being completely different.

Of course the main standout of this season is Telltales rendition of the joker, and this unorthodox tale, and his flipped relationships with Harley Quinn, Bruce Wayne and Batman, really steal the whole season and is truly amazing.

That's not to take away from the other plot lines, as I was definitely invested in Commissioner Gordon, Amanda Waller, Tiffany Fox and Alfred's storylines, and the supporting cast are all entertaining too, from the condescending Riddler, to the intimidating Bane, the intelligent Iman Avesta, and Mr Freeze was fun while on screen but was definitely left in the background and should have been brought forward for a scene or two. Each relationship resulted in some crippling moments of tension which is truly the best aspect of this season.

The season definitely has a greater focus on Bruce Wayne rather than Batman, and while it suits the story, and didn't drag on the experience too much, I was left frustrated at the end of episode 4 (definitely the least interesting and forgettable episode) after having not played as Batman the whole episode, and knowing the last time I had a Batman action scene was at the very beginning of episode 2! This is subjective, and while it didn't bother me too much it is something that others should be aware of.

To top it all off, this is the best looking telltale game yet, with the flowing camera movements and brilliantly animated facial expressions, accompanied by the top notch voice acting, makes this definitely my favourite telltale game!

Batman The Enemy Within is the second season of Batman The Telltale Series and to be honest I liked both games but they lack more immersion and narrative construction, I know Telltale games are usually depressing with a focus on showing more the daily life of what the action itself is not the focus of the game, but in both games the middle of the story ends up being a little dragged, at least with me I got tired of playing several moments because it wasn't attracting me so much.

A very positive point is again the choices of Bruce Wayne's two personalities (He and Batman), which I think is really cool because any choice given with the two characters will directly affect the life of Bruce and his friends, until the end it remains constant that depending on your choices Bruce's life will never be normal as long as he has his second facet of Batman.

Overall I thought the game was good but mainly the medium could have made a better character construction and narrative that is constantly so slow that it becomes tiring, I recommend it if you like the character, I think you'll like it mainly for this view of the universe of Batman I I think it's cool, but Telltale Batman games doesn't surpass The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us.

Note: if you play, pay attention not only to the game itself but to the philosophy behind Batman's most iconic villain, even though it's not the main point here and being mentioned only in the last few episodes, I think it's very profound and it's worth debating which is the origin of evil.

Batman the enemy within is probably the best Batman game of all time. I've played every other Batman game but I'll never forget this one The story, the voice acting, the graphics improvement, the villains, The different possible answers all of which contribute to the amazing story. It's a shame that this game doesn't get what it deserves So underrated yet so perfect. The vocal performances are all exceptional. Troy Baker's more haunted take on Batman and Bruce Wayne fits the tone of this series perfectly. Anthony Ingruber delivers my favorite work as the increasingly going off the deep end John. Laura Post establishes a fitting fresh take on Harley Quinn while Matthew Mercer's Mister Freeze finds just the right amount of icy detachment.

Batman: The Enemy Within continues establishing a darker, more consequence filled take on Batman. The final act makes the extended build up worth it.

Perfection.

Telltale has done it again! Batman the enemy within has Batman go up against several new villains in it' own original story! And just like the first one the choices and consequences are very impactful! Choices You made In the first game also have a long lasting impression though out this game! Voice acting is amazing for every character and the writing as definitely improved from the last game! Overall amazing game!
