This was a pretty good finale.
My favorite scene definitely had to be the fight with Harvey. It was a fitting end to his character arc imo than in episode 4 and like that determinantly, the personality in control at the end is either Harvey or Two-Face. Would of been cool if your past choices affected the outcome with Harvey, but oh well.
The final showdown with Lady Arkham was awesome and it was nice that she was the main and final villain to the end and no plot twist that it was the Joker behind it all or something. The ending seems like a setup for season 2 with Joker(John Doe) out of Arkham, espescially since he has yet to reveal what favor he wants from Bruce.
Overall, Batman the Telltale series was a cool game. Not as best as TFTB, I would say it's on par with TWAU. It was nice to see Telltale's interpretation of the characters and with the new elements they added to the characters like the Wayne Family being corrupted, Vicky Vale from a minor character to a full villain and etc. My favorite characters were Batman, Harvey, Selina, Joker and Vicky.
If they'll make a season 2, I won't be against it and I'll look forward to it if they'll decide to make one. Can't wait to see how Telltale will tackle with Marvel next.

Huh, also didn't know there was an armored Batsuit if you had Lucius work for you in the Batcave... Neat. I think I actually like how the old batsuit looks though over the armored one.

Done with the episode: This fucking episode. This FUCKING EPISODE WAS AMAZING! Honestly, if I was to review this season as a whole, I'd say this was TWAU done RIGHT. Yes I agree with Zyphon that the whole Harvey/Two-Face thing could've been handled SLIGHTLY better, but I think it works pretty well! For instance back in episode 4 if you go to visit Harvey as Batman, he'll actually be more "Two-Facey" and act more aggressive and cold if you saved Selina over him. Honestly though I think Season Two (If it does happen) will fix that up.
Now let's get into the actual episode. The final confrontation with Oswald was SO good, definitely made it worth it to go after Harvey back in Ep. 4. Jason Spisak does an AWESOME Penguin, and I bet his legs aren't gonna be the same ever again after getting crushed by that bust. The goodbye with Selina was handled pretty well, since I wasn't even expecting her to show up in this episode. I was alright with making Belina happen, even if it's just gonna be us as rivals who fuck every now and then, but whatever.
The detective parts though I must say were kinda disappointing towards the end. When you're looking through Vicki's rape/torture chamber to find the chalk I mean HOW DO YOU NOT FIGURE THAT OUT IN LESS THAN TEN SECONDS?! That's kinda my only real complaint with this episode.
And that fight with Vicki at the end...My GOD was that fight awesome! It's up there with the Rhys VS Accountants, Jesse VS Aiden, and Lee VS Walkers as one of my favorite Telltale fights of all time! The whole buildup to it was great too, felt alot like the end of Arkham Knight IMO.
The ending felt like TWAU's Ep. 5 ending but done right; a nice resolution that seems to wrap up nicely at first, but then just teases you enough to possibly bring up a second season. Looking forward to fighting Joker 3 or 4 years from now! (Or Whenever Telltale's done with New Frontier, GOTG, and Thrones 2)
So, in conclusion (and this is coming from a guy who's never read a Batman comic in his LIFE apart from The Killing Joke and Court of Owls, only watching the last two Dark Knight movies, and watching several episodes of Batman TAS and TBaTB), Batman The Telltale Series was a GREAT game, blew TWAU out of the water in EVERY WAY POSSIBLE, and it actually got me hoping to see more of the DC universe in Telltale's future. Here's to Season Two! Mah Choices:Forgave Alfred: He's like an old man Clem now, and he's really grown on me this season. I didn't really care for him in Ep. 1, but God did this series do him good.
Said Selina was more than just a theif: Cut the bullshit, she's just afraid of getting close to people and losing them.
Kissed Selina goodbye: Since I failed with Bicki might as well try to get Belina together again right? I mean it looks like it might work eventually...
Told Vicki I'm Bruce: I had this sinking feeling that Vicki would've killed Alfred if I didn't, so it came out pretty well. When I first saw it happen I thought she would've been too crazy to actually think I'm Bruce and that I was just wearing another mask, but she's dead now so it doesn't matter. Also Bruce should get like a cool new ear plug or something for that huge hole now, maybe a Bat shaped one?
Attended as Batman and told Gordon to say that I'll help the GCPD: Honestly this was the hardest decision for me. I sat for a good minute or so debating this, and I was thinking f how almost EVERY single Batman story sees Bruce as the dominant side more than not, so I decided to see what it'd be like to have Batman be the dominant one for once.

I played the finally. Didn't care about any things that happened. Had some really troubling performance issues where the framerate dropped to single digits. The conflicts are resolved somewhat emotionally, but there is just too little story to fill an entire episode. Some confrontations are straight up dumb (like Gordon not realizing that Bruce is Batman after he single-handedly picks up a drone mid-air and smashes it into Cobblepot's face).
My thoughts after completing it: Well, ANF is released next week.

One more observation: I didn't realize I could move Batman down in the crypts beneath Arkham, because I thought that they completely scrapped any illusion of gameplay at that point.

Yeah the awkward moment when you see WASD in the upper corner and you're like... oh.. these games had gameplay once... it was a different time.
