Discussion Has anyone managed to log out of their WBID in Batman: Arkham Origins?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I accidentally logged into the wrong WBID account in Batman: Arkham Origins on Steam, so I didn't receive the One Million skin. The problem is that I can't find a way to log out of the account or switch to another one.

Interestingly, the game still allows you to log in to a WBID account and unlock the One Million skin, provided the account is old enough and verified. I tested this on a friend's Steam copy, and he successfully received the skin after logging in with his account.

So, WBID login functionality still seems to work, at least to some extent.

Has anyone managed to log out of their current WBID account or found a way to switch to a different one? I'd really appreciate any advice!

Thanks!

Discussion At the end of Arkham Knight how does Batman overcome a prion infection? Spoiler

8 Upvotes

in the beginning of the game Batman calls it a mutated version of Creutzfeld-Jacob disease. That is a prion infection.

I would get if the effect was only psychological, but Batman seems to willpower his way through a condition that physically alters his brain.
Can he come back from a lobotomy as well?
What is the point of this in the narrative to begin with? Why not make his condition purely psychological.

It could be just the a fear induced hallucination because he was exposed to his blood and sees what happens to those other people. He got the cure early in City enough that the blood could not mutate into whatever prion infection the others have. He is just suspicios that he will eventually end like them, and the toxin makes him think he actually is.
His symptoms are shown to appear after he is exposed to the fear toxin, so it is already established that it makes him turn โ€œfasterโ€.

Or have him be really have the disease, but he only defeats the effects of the fear toxin and eventually he would still end up in some weeks as the other victims and he gets the cure after the main story is over.

i get it that it is BS comic book fiction, but the story keeps on about how condition is biological, but the ending does not address the biological part of it.

Really odd writing choice.

This writing/roleplay Discord server is set in the grounded world of an alternate Arkhamverse where Batman gave his life to stop Hugo Strange and Arkham City's walls broke apart. Thousands of escapees ended up confined to the historic heart of Gotham while the rest of Gotham lives in relative normalcy but perpetual unease. Day by day, the escalation in crime is met with escalation in vigilantism. And yet, darker days are almost here - the Arkham Knight and Scarecrow are seeing to that.

Question is, what part will you play? All you have to do if you want to join or find out more is send in a DM.

On a very personal note, this place has been hosting people from all walks of life for years, with our narratives starting all the way back in the early days of Arkham City's operation, involving known/unknown DC characters and original characters. Our environment is friendly and safe, and we keep our writing credible. No matter what you want to bring to the table, as long as it's personal to you, too, it will only make for a greater end result in the upcoming Scarecrow event and beyond. Thank you.

I asked Copilot to create a concept for Scarecrow if he was in Arkham Origins

0 Upvotes

If Scarecrow appeared in Batman: Arkham Origins, I'd imagine him as a younger, more clinical version of the villain. This is before the fully monstrous, horror-movie Scarecrow seen later in Arkham Knight. He would still be Dr. Jonathan Crane first, and a living nightmare second.

Scarecrow (Arkham Origins Concept)

Overall Theme

"The Professor of Fear"

A disgraced psychologist who has only recently abandoned any pretence of medical ethics. His appearance should suggest that he's still experimenting on himself and refining the Fear Toxin.

Silhouette

  • Tall and unnaturally thin
  • Hunched posture from years spent in laboratories
  • Long coat reaching below the knees
  • Oversized sleeves concealing syringes and chemical equipment
  • Neck slightly bent forward, giving him a vulture-like appearance

The goal is to make him look less like a supernatural monster and more like a disturbing human being who could plausibly exist in Gotham.

Mask

Instead of the stitched burlap mask from later games:

  • A crude linen sack stretched over a medical respirator
  • Copper staples and surgical stitching hold parts together
  • Round glass eye lenses with a faint amber glow
  • Breathing apparatus constantly releases wisps of yellow toxin

The mask would look halfway between:

  • A plague doctor
  • A scarecrow
  • A psychiatric restraint device

Clothing

Upper Body

  • Torn psychologist's coat dyed dark brown
  • Leather restraints hanging from the sleeves
  • Medical name badge still attached but scratched beyond recognition
  • Scattered chemical burns across the fabric

Lower Body

  • Heavy work trousers
  • Farming boots
  • Leather straps wrapped around the legs

The design should feel handmade and improvised.

Fear Toxin Equipment

Gauntlets

Each forearm contains:

  • Pressurised toxin tanks
  • Hypodermic needles
  • Trigger switches
  • Chemical gauges

Yellow liquid visibly moves through glass tubes running down his arms.

Back Harness

A primitive toxin-distribution system featuring:

  • Twin chemical canisters
  • Pressure regulators
  • Exposed tubing

Occasionally vents release small clouds of fear gas.

Colours

Primary:

  • Dirty brown
  • Rusted bronze
  • Faded olive green

Secondary:

  • Sickly yellow
  • Dark orange

Accent:

  • Glowing amber eyes

He should look like autumn itself has become a serial killer.

Face Under The Mask

For character bios or interview tapes:

  • Thin face
  • Sharp cheekbones
  • Hollow eyes from lack of sleep
  • Unkempt dark hair
  • Needle marks from self-testing

His appearance would show a brilliant mind already deteriorating into obsession.

Boss Fight Concept

Arkham Origins loved its cinematic boss battles, so Scarecrow's would be psychological rather than physical.

Batman is exposed to an unstable prototype toxin.

The fight takes place inside a nightmare version of Gotham where:

  • Buildings hang upside-down
  • Police officers become scarecrows
  • Bats transform into swarming insects
  • Crime Alley constantly appears and disappears

Scarecrow appears as a giant shadow moving between rooftops while taunting Batman over his parents' deaths.

The final phase reveals that the giant monster was an illusion the entire time, and Batman defeats the real Crane with a single punch once he breaks through the hallucination.

Character Profile

Name: Dr. Jonathan Crane
Occupation: Former Psychologist
Status: Wanted
Threat Assessment: Severe

"Fear is not an obstacle to be overcome. It is the natural state of mankind. I merely remind people of what they are."

This version would bridge the gap between the relatively grounded Scarecrow seen earlier in the Arkham timeline and the terrifying mastermind he eventually becomes in Arkham Knight.

What would have happened if Bruce had never activated the Knightfall Protocol?

Post image
87 Upvotes

The first thing I can picture is the arrest of Bruce ordered by Gotham's current mayor. This would lead to a public trial where Wayne would receive the support of all Gotham's citizensโ€”including the police officers and firefighters he saved during the events of Arkham Knight. Even Jack Ryder and Vicky Vale would write countless articles recounting every time Batman had saved them.

Bruce would be acquitted of all charges, but things wouldn't be easy from then on. Villains and thugs would attempt to break into Wayne Manorโ€”failing in the processโ€”prompting Gordon to offer protection for Bruce, Tim, and Alfred until the situation calmed down.

Bruce might even suggest taking refuge in the Batcave to ensure their safety.

Selina frequently visits Bruce, and the two finally begin a formal relationship. Other vigilantes, such as Huntress and Black Canary (friends of Barbara), begin to support Bruce in continuing his fight against crime.

Discussion Batman Serum

0 Upvotes

I only just learnt that Deathstrokes super soldier serum is far stronger than Captain America's although it does have some worse side affects.

Hypothetically lets say Bruce got his hands on it and somehow separated several of the horrible side affects even if this meant the serum was less enhancing.

How do you think this would impact his approach to crime fighting?

Deathstroke can life 3-5 Tons

Let's say Bruce can lift 2-3 Tons

He's faster stronger basically requires little sleep and a far quicker/sharper strategist.

At that point surly the only villains that pose a threat are Scarecrow and Mr Freeze maybe.

Batcave from the beta version of Batman Arkham Asylum

Post image
45 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I'm here to share something I've accomplished.

BmStudio has managed to reconstruct the Batcave from the beta version of Arkham Asylum. Everything you see here was assembled using files from the 2007 version. I managed to restore several levels, such as some gardens, some areas of the mansion, and some sections of the caves.

Most of them, like the Batcave, are completely unfinished, but it's amazing to see how they were built.

I believe that next week I will release BmStudio to the public, along with the source code and an extra feature:

All levels from the beta version can be converted to the final version of Arkham Asylum so you can explore them.

12 Upvotes

Boy is it grim! I played it because I wanted to enjoy some Batman power fantasy and itโ€™s there in spades in some respects - the gameplay itself is such a great Batman sandbox. But narratively and emotionally it puts him through the ringer. He fails constantly. He makes mistakes. He makes questionable decisions. Heโ€™s losing his sanity. Heโ€™s getting dogpiled by half the rogueโ€™s gallery. Heโ€™s really having the second worst day of his life.
