4. A Worthwhile Completion Time
Arkham's story DLC has never really been lengthy - Harley Quinn's Revenge had a completion time of a meagre two hours and a Cold, Cold Heart drifted around that mark too when collectables aren't taken into account. Though there will be those that argue in favour of 'quality over quantity', one doesn't have to be sacrificed in order to attain the other. Knight's DLC will have a lot of story content included with the season pass, so there is the danger that each individual piece may hover around those short completion times like its predecessors. Leaving players asking for more is better than having them wish for the experience to end prior to its closure, but having it end too abruptly will undoubtedly leave a sour taste in their mouths. Rocksteady really need to amp up the amount of content included in these storylines to elevate their worthiness, and the return of Most Wanted missions would help ensure this relatively easily.
Content Producer/Presenter
Ewan Paterson
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
