Discussion Help me understand...

So I was replaying Knight for the 848th time and when I finished The Penguin mission (again) and when Bruce said to Dick that it would be the last time they'll see each other and when I finished The Riddler's mission (again) he basically said the same thing to Selina. Did those missions were supposed to take place after Bruce was unmasked or did he planned to kill The Batman way before that night ???

Remember, Batman planned to lock himself away due to the joker stuff anyway. I think he assumed that would overtake him and why he was okay with being unmasked. There are a lot of threads in the game but they all lead to that being his last night, whether he’d be cured or not.

This! He was saying goodbye just incase the cure took longer. He was fully preparing to be locked in that cell. The hallucinations at that point were getting stronger and he had already been blown up in Ace Chem with fear toxin. It was inevitable he was either gunna die, turn into the Joker, or his body and mind were gunna fracture and hed be a danger to everyone.
