  • This video features all the Scarecrow nightmares/allucinations you can experience in Batman: Arkham Asylum. There is a total of three of them during the main story, which you can enter as you progress through the plot. Here they are in order of gameplay's (and video's) appearence:
    1) The first one is triggered by taking the elevator to the morgue (00:00)
    2) The second begins after checking the book where Dr. Young hid her research notes inside the mansion's library (8:15)
    3) The third is kicked off before getting down the sewers in your return to intensive treatment (18:04)
    I don't know the reason of the sudden frames drop around the end of the second sequence, unless you consider that, to this day, these levels are fairly taxing on the PhysX engine.
    The Scarecrow sequences are mainly stealth-based missions (the second and third one also throw in some mooks for you to fight, but it's nothing noteworthy) and some easy ones at that. I had only a couple of problems during recording due to me not following Scarecrow's gaze carefully during some sections (some of them require a better timing than others). Honestly, the main beef of the whole thing is just about admiring the scenery

    @user-fz1vm2yq9p Před 4 lety +592

    I believe every one of those three Scarecrow nightmares shows Batman's greatest fears:
    1. In the first nightmare, we can see Batman's fear of not managing to save his friend Gordon in time. Batman fights crime because he considers his duty to make sure no one else is going to suffer the way he did when he lost his parents. The scene with the talking corpses shows his fear of failing any time he fights and letting down his parents.
    2. In the second nightmare, we dig even deeply. Though Batman sees again his parents, this is a moment he re-lives the trauma that changed him. He feels the pain, the injustice, his desire of having his family back. He secretly wishes he could overwrite what happened then, and had his parents now.
    3. The third and worst nightmare shows Batman's deepest fear; Batman knows just how extreme his means of fighting crime are. He is afraid that one day he will become just like the lunatics he defies. Joker himself says they both are crazy, so Batman shouldn't fight him but join him. All those nightmare Batmen are Batman's visions of his possible future if he ever lets insanity eat his mind away.

    • @jj_grabes
      @jj_grabes Před 2 lety +30

      I especially love your breakdown of the third. I've run into a lot of people who think Batman's oblivious to the extremes he takes to fight crime when he's anything but that. It's one of the reasons why he doesn't kill his enemies. He's afraid of losing control altogether, so he needs to limit himself.

    • @neo-warkid4edwards222
      @neo-warkid4edwards222 Před 2 lety +17

      there's also more to the third nightmare, his allies captured and his enemies learning and exposing his identity, a fear that actually comes to pass at the end of Arkham Knight. by Scarecrow himself no less.

    Played this as a young teenager and didn't know too much about batman (outside some of the tv show that ran a few years before this came out). I had no idea about scarcrow, so that first scene where you're introduced to him and Gordon seems dead has stuck with me more than most gaming moments. Truly terrifying

    There’s a small detail throughout the game hinting when the Scarecrow bits were coming up. In the elevator, a wavy gas appears and Batman starts coughing. This happens many times before you encounter Scarecrow so I guess that’s one way to poison someone. Also in the first bit, after opening the vent, you can notice that when he blinks his eyes turn red.

      I argue the sight is Crane looking for Batman's one major fear flaw and by seeing him it's like Bruce is exposing his one exploitable fear only by making it to the bat signal (basically his motivation to fight) is he able to counter Crane's fear theatrics. Yes I know I have read too much into this but Scarecrow is my favorite Batman villian

    • @DorianMichaelsIII
      @DorianMichaelsIII Před 7 lety +32

      I agree-- I think the *most* creative thing was how they gave Batman glowing red eyes (first noticeable around 2:20 or so, when the camera zooms in on them while he's prying off the grate); that, to me, served as a sign to the audience that SOMETHING is definitely hinky, but the audience doesn't yet know exactly WHAT (though particularly astute viewers might, correctly, guess, than if Scarecrow hasn't dosed Batman with his fear toxin, that the not so good Doctor has SOMETHING to do with what is going on).
      An even more subtle hint is that Batman *coughs* (he NEVER does that, ANYWHERE ELSE in the game) while in the elevator (a tip that that is probably when he started getting exposed to the fear gas). People well versed in Bat-lore probably have deduced what has likely happened by then, but its the red eyes that seal it; SOMETHING is wrong, and though Batman hasn't yet realized it yet (he can't see his own eyes, but the audience can; plus its likely his eyes aren't *actually* glowing, so Batman looking in a reflective surface and seeing them is out; the eyes is a nod to the audience, not him) the *audience* does.
      It's a beautiful irony; we are waiting for *Batman* to get the hint about what is going on around him, while The World's Greatest Detective, is (at least at the beginning...seemingly) still blissfully ignorant; though, when he calls Oracle to tell her that her father has "died", and he gets a 'number disconnected' message, he probably figured out something's up.

      explains why the Bat signal is how Batman breaks free from the toxin's effects. it's a manifestation of Batman's willpower and a symbol of hope for gotham.
      even Scarecrow came to that conclusion in Arkham Knight
      Scarecrow: how can the world know fear, true dread, when it has you? a stalwart knight, ever ready to slay monsters. Fear isn't pure biology, batman, it's more than instinct. True fear is the absence of hope, and hope is the spread wings of a bat, shining on the clouds.

      100% Agree with you on that. In Arkham Knight, all we got to see was just him "behind the scenes" and not doing much of anything except giving speeches to Batman on the city's loudspeaker about his big plans for Gotham and all that throughout the whole entire game. The worst part, is that we only get to come face to face with Scarecrow only 3 times throughout the whole entire game and not once did we have to deal with his fear toxin induced hallucinations (and no that part with the Joker at the end does not count for me) or even fight him at all. All we get to see is Batman "confront" him in cutscenes and that's about it. For a game that said it was about Scarecrow trying be the one to take down Batman, Arkham Knight really missed that mark by a longshot.
