<\/p>\nIf you’ve already finished Batman: Arkham City, that headline doesn’t need any further explaining, I’m sure.<\/p>\n
If you haven’t yet finished Batman: Arkham City, well, some big, significant events are going to happen, and you might want to consider closing this page and moving onto something else in the meantime.<\/p>\n
For everybody else then, I’m sure the immediate question is, “How the hell could they do that?” And the answer, according to Rocksteady’s Sefton Hill, is that DC Comics gave the developer licence to do whatever they wanted, more or less.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“Working with DC is great because they have so much confidence in us that really enables us to make the game we want to make,” Hill says in a video interview with CVG<\/a>.<\/p>\n “And obviously there are some… big events that happen in this game throughout the story, and very significant events. But I think because DC know that we’re huge fans of Batman and the way that everything is done is treated with total respect to the source material, that there’s just never been an issue with any of those things.<\/p>\n “What we’re doing is something that just totally fits in the universe, it totally makes sense for the characters, and that’s why I think they allow us the freedom to do the things we do in the story.”<\/p>\n But Rocksteady… why? WHYYY? Whatever the reasons, I think this one’s definitely going down as my most shocking game ending ever.<\/p>\n Now I just wish my friends would hurry up and finish it, so we can all go “BUT WHYYY” to each other.<\/p>\n
