I finished playing Batman: Arkham Knight there. Pretty solid experience. Some of the side missions were weak, there was far too much Batmobile and tank battles going on and not enough interesting interior levels. The dual play with Batman and Robin was probably the highlight of the experience.
It probably had the most interesting story of the four Arkham Games - or at least the whole psychological angle involving Batman felt pretty fresh. Scarecrow didn't really deliver but he was more of a vehicle for more interesting encounters involving Batman. I'm glad I didn't follow the preamble like I did with Arkham City - so Arkham Knight's identity and involvement in the story felt like a pretty good one - touching on Batman's past failures and deepest regrets. Storywise it feels the least like a Batman comic which isn't necessarily a good thing. Although Arkham City's plot was messy it still had the novelty of facing Batman's rogues gallery that lacked a bit in Knight.
