    So they get a pass because it’s a reboot? For me, films and series become services at that point, because it is constantly servicing a fan base.

    People could argue that SS is apart of the RockSteady series, because that’s how I interpreted it, that Arkham City didn’t lead to a natural conclusion of that iteration of Batman, which is standard in the comics industry.

    Every story has a beginning, middle and end. When failing to come full circle, as just another IP to continuously milk, with no regard for overarching plot or any conclusion to any arc, at that point it’s a service.

    I was hopeful for this game, because RockSteady’s Batman games have been some of my favourite story based brawlers. After reading that I won’t be getting any resolution to the plot threads or character arcs, I feel like I’ve sort of wasted my time paying attention.

    At that point it’s become like Marvel films, which is technically just a babysitter - and that is a service.
