Is the Premium Edition worth it?
I'm considering buying the game now that is on sale and apparently mostly fixed, but I'm wondering, is the extra 20 bucks (in my country) on the premium edition worth it? Or is just fluff that I won't miss at all?

I'd say quite a bit of the DLC isn't worth it since it's just skins. Do you want extra challenge maps and to try to extra story DLCs? Might be worth buying the season pass. But be aware the extra story bits are criminally short. Season of Infamy was good, maybe get that if nothing else.

It's not worth it on the PC , it's worth it on the PS4 though. Not the PC's fault just inept programmers. Avoid this game like the plague on the PC. Unless you like constant headaches from performance issues even on high end specs.

No issues with how the game runs on my pc, running on a titan black some 2-3 years ago i got my pc. If the Premium Edition is worth it, I couldn't say... but from what i heard i'd only get the regular version of the game. (which is good imo, but i'm a batman fan)

Heres a stupid question but does the Seasons Pass Premium Edition contain ALL the dlc?

It's not a stupid question to me, since I too am wondering this as well, since i've never got a "season pass" for a title once. So, again, does it allow the acquisition of all available dlc content? I'm asking this because I intend to get Knight for either my soon-to-be-acquired ("soon" as in whenever I have the opportunity to get one, if only it was available on the 360 damnit... >_< ) PS4 or 720 (what I call the idiotically-labeled "Xbox One" :uritona: ) of course, so if anyone can answer then we both would appreciate it, really. :)

The season pass includes all the dlc that are available in the steam store and there're a few dlc that no longer appear in the store because they're included with the standard edition for free.

What is NOT included is:

60' batman skin (which can be added with some tweaking)
Justice League 3000 skin
Earth 2 skin
Scarecrow's Nightmare missions

Batmobile prototype (walmart exclusive)
1966 batmobile skin (which is not the one from the tv show that one is in the store page, this is basically the batmobile from AK but with some details in red)

Walmart exclusive? I bought the game from my usual retailer and they never stated anything about extra content and there was no activation code, yet i have the prototype batmobile. Are you sure that it's not in the season pass?

Oh my bad, thanks for the correction, I don't have the season pass so I couldn't check this myself. But yes the prototype batmobile is included in the season pass. I read that is a walmart exclusive though it's clear that steam was let in on the deal too.

So this is the corrected list of what is NOT included in the steam version:

60' batman skin (which can be added with some tweaking)
Justice League 3000 skin
Earth 2 skin
Scarecrow's Nightmare missions
1966 batmobile skin

In my opinion if there's such a price difference all of the DLC is forgettable if you're not bothered about getting all achievements.
The story DLCs are on a level of fanfiction with almost no story and the only positive I saw was that the locations themselves were made with care.
And skins should have never even be considered to be sold separately.

edit: Also the Batgirl DLC crashed constantly while the main game and everything else ran smoothly at 60 frames with the occasional hiccups that are known about this game.

I bought the premium editon for $15 on g 2 a. The game ran perfectly for me. I was getting a constant 60fps maxed out and my frames never dropped. If you are paying full price for the game i don't reccomend teh dlc. Theres not enough there to pay extra. Season of infamy is the only thing that makes it worth it. Just go on g 2 a. I had this game at launch on ps4 but i didnt want to buy a $40 season pass, so $15 for the game and season pass is worth it to me.

Well, thanks for the replies. I guess I'll buy the Premium Edition then. The game costs $ ~90 normally ($ ~30 now on sale) and the Season pass $ ~70, which I think is ridiculous how the damn season pass costs almost as much as the entire base game. However with the discount, I can get the Premium for $ ~50, which includes both base game and season pass. Is a question of either buying the base game now and never getting the season pass because how expensive this ♥♥♥♥ is or paying a little more now and get everything.

Just a shame this sale can't be done for consoles, of which I don't have either of the two to go through Knight, otherwise I would've gone through it already (and the reason why I can't go through it on consoles yet is due to how expensive the 720/PS4 still is of course... >_> ) and I can't go through it on PC due to just how much of a freakin' memory-hog it is obviously, damnit... :uritona:
