The thing is, the Batmobile isn’t terrible, at times it even feels cool to drive. But it’s forced on you SO. MUCH.
By the time you finish the game, what felt like a pretty neat addition feels like a chore to use. I didn’t buy a car game, I bought a Batman game. Let me be Batman >:(
If you can get it cheap, it’s worth picking up after you’ve played the other 2 mainline Arkham games; so long as you go in knowing what to expect. There are worthwhile moments in the game, so long as don’t expect the quality to be as high as City or Asylum.
I bounced off Knight despite loving Asylum and City exactly due to the Batmobile. Admittedly driving sequences are a hard “meh” for me at the best of times, but they felt much worse here because they forced me away from the batsuit traversal.
I’ve seen a lot of discussions on the batmobile being a let-down in the third game!

Ye-es, pretty much what I worried it would be! A shame, since I love how it looks, but car-drivey-Batman doesn’t seem too much of a winner to me :(
