10 Tiny Details In Batman: Arkham Knight Everyone Missed
7. Officer Owens’s Diner Demons
At the start of Batman: Arkham Knight, you play Officer Owens, one of the first victims of Scarecrow’s Fear Toxin.
In fact, you get to experience that all for yourself and it is a definitively not chill time as the toxin name would imply.
As the patrons in Pauli’s Diner morph into demons you’ll get the opportunity to shoot at them or not shoot at them while inside Owens’ toxin addled mind. There are a few interesting tidbits here. First off, the news report that plays out directly after the incident will change depending on whether or not you shot any of the patrons. Similarly, when you’re in the GCPD later you can hear officers talking about Owens going to trial and saying different things depending on whether or not Owens took a shot at anyone.
For example, they might say he must go to trial if he killed people but they won’t say this if you didn’t fire at any of the patrons.
It was also discovered that you can actually run out of bullets and you aren’t able to reload, and the identity of the Arkham Knight himself is teased in this scene as the first demon you speak to had carved an ‘A’ into the table. Finally, the bodies of the waitress and the man who asks you for help can be found in the morgue during the Shadow War expansion mission.
If you’re a superfan who noticed all that, consider me thoroughly impressed and let me see if I can tell you something you don’t know before the video is over.
