Is that...Talia there!?

Talia: I'm the one that gave him the life saving Lazarus dip, I should at least get to have some cake.

Happy Bday Jace!

He does not look like Jason here. Like, at all.

Looks like an emo Tim, to be honest.

I can't help but be impressed that of everything Lobdell did, Red Hood having his own team in the Outlaws is the only one that actually became a thing. And that he was actually able to improve it enough to land on the Dark Trinity format.

Which is funny when you remember how much controversy the original Outlaws run had over its portrayal of Starfire and what not.

Ah I remember buying those issues when they first came out having just gotten into reading comics. Good naive times.

Me too. Still LOVE that Rocafort artwork (XD)

OMG! I wish it was!! (XD)

Rocafort's Red Hood is good, but man, I'll never get over how silly the face mask looks. Completely ruins the design imo.

I also like Jason being a bit buffer, but that's OK.

I think it's because of whoever plays the game, honestly.
The city does look a bit empty, but it could be because those areas lack life themselves because they are areas for missions.

That's the thing, I'm not entirely sure if it's a bad player or a clunky combat system

Like, this is not IGN playing. It's the devs, much like with that Nightwing/Red Hood demo a while back. Constant dodging when it doesn't make sense, staying in line awkwardly to get hit or avoid getting hit at the last second, enemies not really doing anything...

I still have hopes that the combat will actually be fun and, hopefully, engaging. But the marketing so far has been bad. Maybe it's a symptom of the actual game, but I can't believe the only villain-related stuff we've gotten was Freeze's demo in 2020! We know of a few other villains because of teases and, in Penguin's case, him showing up in a cutscene. But that's about it, all we've seen has been awkward petty crime footage.

Still hoping for the best. Again, I'd be satisfied with an average/slightly above average game considering how much I like the premise.

See, the combat looks a lot less clunky here.

[Mantis-Ray]

All things considered I feel like this is a case of a smaller studio just trying their best but they don't have the experience or were given the resources to properly manage a game of this scale.

Kind of like what happened with Arkham Origins who were only given half the budget to make the game.

Looks like an emo Tim, to be honest.

Too rough and rugged to be Tim

Totally Awesome! Thanks!!

Skill Trees and how they work. Honestly the whole thing sounds really interesting and if implemented well, is going to lead to fun builds for all the characters.

I went and took screenshots of Jason's entire skill list

The Joker is dying and needs medical help...but where can the most wanted man in the United States get it? And to make matters worse, Jason Todd decides now to finally hunt and kill the Clown Prince of Crime?

Haven't we been there, done that, already had a mini with this exact same premise?

[Dark_Tzitzimine]

Haven't we been there, done that, already had a mini with this exact same premise?

Yep. And this is a completely pointless direction to take Jason.

EVERYONE knows that Joker won't be killed ever so this means Jason is stuck in a wild goose chase for the foreseeable future.

[DragonPiece]

So Rosenberg continues to have reigns on Jason for the foreseeable future in continuity, I don’t actually mind this since I like his characterization in task force Z.

[Restingvoice]

Totally Awesome! Thanks!!

I just realized that both Ra's in Lost Days and Ducra here consider Jason to be a threat to this world. The difference is now that All-Caste is involved in his education they're able to calm him down compared to his borderline sociopathy in Lost Days
