Mr Freeze fight is sooo bad (CCH DLC)

Why the hell do devs think ending their games with stupid annoying not even remotely fun fights is a good idea. Uninstalled without finishing it. The predator sections of the game suck at the best of times. Then they end the game where all the mechanics its been using no longer work. Ugh!

Even watching a youtube video of it done properly makes it look annoying to do.

Played through the main game because I was planning on finally playing Arkham Knight and now I don't think I even want too.

It's basically the same Mr. Freeze predator room from Arkham City, with the exception that in CCH you can repeat takedowns since it's an earlier encounter. Use the condensed stalactites to your advantage by dropping them on Victor before or as he passes under them to weaken him. Use multiple Ice Wall Takedowns as well, you get an achievement for it.

I've got no intentions of going back to it, it's already uninstalled and the download is nearly 30GB. While I appreciate the effort, I just felt the need to vent, rather than after help. The AC fight was way better than this one, mainly because the level was actually well thought out for the encounter. In this one when not on the vantage points, its cramped, the camera doesn't work well and the whole level seems like it was just thrown together at random rather than designed.

Honestly not been this annoyed at a game in a long time, just feel likes it wasted my time. It's not just that its hard, I've recently finished both Control and Jedi Fallen Order, which had much harder sections. The difference is that while hard those fights were also fun. This one was just annoying.

Haven’t played Origins, but Mr Freeze in City was probably the best fight in the series. I also know that Origins was made by a different team, so that might explain it

@mdesaleah, the room only needs tactical analysis and patience, perhaps some repetition. I'm no expert player but I 100%ed this DLC long ago, it's not that hard. Why should any section in a new game play exactly like a previous game? Where would the suspense or risk curve occur?
