    1. @purplephish20 I'm no expect, but I believe that is called "the plot of Half Life".

        1. @purplephish20 Do yo do this for all games? "There I was, running around the forest, yaddayadda, then suddenly, the Deku Tree wants me to lift a curse! What the hell man!" "There I was, placing boxes on buttons, then the robot says that I should walk through portals! I didn't sign up for this!"

          1. @thelastgherkin BRB, thinking of a spyro 2 version of this phrase, and a Jak one... and an arkham city one... Just for lulz

            1. @purplephish20 "Jak, let's go to the Lurker island!" ..."Nahhhh." Then Daxter was human forever.

                1. @purplephish20 "Arkham City is overrun by criminals. ...Which is kind what it was designed for. That's not worth investigating."

                  1. @thelastgherkin You havent played the game, it's clearly obvious

                    1. @purplephish20 I only got partway into Asylum.

                  2. @thelastgherkin The problem in this case is rather less simple, as the game is actually kicked off by Bruce trying to get the place shut down.

                    1. @toksyuryel What I want to know is how that nutjob warden got elected to mayor. Unless it's explained in-game, in which case I'll get around to it and you don't need to say anything.

                      1. @thelastgherkin It is. As you go through the game, you'll hear about how he was, but there is a side mission that helps explain it with more detail.

                      2. @thelastgherkin Well its stated from the very start of the game that Warden sharp becomes mayor because he gets the credit of saving arkham asylum.

                      3. @thelastgherkin There is an explanation for everything that seems like a plot hole, but a lot of it's buried in character bios and story snippets that you have to unlock by finding secrets, and some things you have to piece together yourself by considering things you can learn from similar secrets in the first game. The story of Arkham City makes a TON more sense once you collect all of the "Spirit of Arkham" recordings in Arkham Asylum (including the final one that the game doesn't tell you exists).

        2. @purplephish20 You find out as you go through. Having no idea what the f__k is going on is entirely the point at the start.
