Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley: The way the characters' mouths move in anything that ''isn't'' a FMV is just...wrong. The Joker in particular--it looks like his teeth are melding into and out of his skin!

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: ''The New Batman Adventures'' redesigns look absolutely ''wonderful'' in the pre-rendered cutscenes.



* UnderusedGameMechanic: It is possible to sneak up on enemies and neutralize them instantly, but there are very few instances where this opportunity can arise.

* CompleteMonster: ComicBook/TheJoker is the true BigBad and [[TheChessmaster the ultimate mastermind]] behind the game's evil. [[FakingTheDead Faking his death]] to keep suspicion off himself, Joker manipulates the supervillains Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy into committing various crimes, from flash freezing a factory of workers to implanting carnivorous plants inside innocents to blackmail them, and uses the ensuing chaos to initiate his own scheme. Joker plans to pump [[DeadlyGas Joker Gas]] and the highly flammable substance Promethium into Gotham City's sewers, then giddily watch as millions of innocents choke on their own laughter as they burn alive. Even when beaten, Joker attempts to fling himself to his death, hoping to both torment Batman and immortalize himself as the greatest nightmare in Gotham's history.

Misaimed Realism is now YMMV.

Added DiffLines:

* MisaimedRealism: The game emphasizes that hand-cuffing enemies will permanently neutralize them, but it still doesn't make sense that they couldn't just get up anyways. This is especially egregious since Batman ''leaves'' them behind after hand-cuffing them.

Added DiffLines:

** If you let the Joker kill himself by DisneyVillainDeath, you get a NonStandardGameOver saying that "death is not a substitute for justice." Cut to several years later, when ''Film/BatmanBegins'' came out and depicted Batman letting more or less the exact same scenario play out with another villain and ''vocally acknowledging it'' as perfectly fine and not against his code.

* ParanoiaFuel: Thugs that you don't handcuff will get back up and attack you again. If you are out of handcuffs and happen to linger around, you'll be constantly looking over your shoulder, waiting for an ambush. It doesn't help that a lot of the secrets in the game are found through exploration of thug-ridden stages.
** The Funny Bones Warehouse chapter only serves to exaggerate this, by having a ''ton'' of pyro Jacks in Boxes roaming the floors. You can't see them easily, but you can most assuredly hear them.
