I never played it after the terrible reviews and after seeing the ugly busy ui/damage splatter. It especially hurt as a fan of the Rocksteady batman games and huge DC comics fan. Did the updates help? Is it better? Worth a play?

No, it's a dying/dead live service game. Save your money and time

It's free on PS Plus already and I still can't be bothered lol

I felt like Shadow of Mordor was a decent spiritual successor, and while I haven't played Shadow of War it seems like more of the same. Same combat style as the Arkham games.

The recent Insomniac/Sony Spider-Man games also had a similar combat style.

If you're absolutely set on playing it I'd say there's a fairly good chance it shows up in Humble Choice within the next year or so.

Sounds like a great reason to cancel my Humble subscription

They've done that kind of thing before, throw in a notoriously failed game, but not as the headliner. The most obvious example I can think of is Gotham Knights.

Was mostly /s, though with the recent selection, I'm not really keen on spending the money anyway.

Actually, I just got it for free from my Playstation plus membership, one of this month's free downloads. Just wasn't sure if it was even worth my time
