This is a phenominally well executed game. The design is very clearly thought through and contains the best elements of the Batman fighting system, the Far Cry 3/4 open world design, and a fantastic combat-driving game.

The visuals are stunning *and* supremely well executed. I have a GTX 970 and can run everything on max with 60+ FPS at all times, and I have heard other people have had very good performance on older cards as well. The various effects (particularly the explosion effects) are very pretty and add to the gritty realism of the world.

The sound design is equally strong. What starts as a rather coughing and labored engine noise slowly grows into a powerful purr as you upgrade your cars engine. Small details like this really add to the game.

The game also has excellent pacing, and teaches you the mechanics in a non-intrusive way as you learn how to scavange, drive, fight, and infiltrate. It slowly unravels in front of you providing more layers over the course of your first 2-3 hours of play until you're familier with all the mechanics, while at the same time it doesn't feel heavy handed nor force you to read a lot of text to learn the game. This is a "crafted" learning experience instead of a "heres the controls, here are some tips in a menu, figure it out" experience.

Lastly, it is a very strong PC port. It has a full mouse interface (unlike MSGV), and even has a FOV slider (though it's hidden a bit). I have found nothing wanting in this game. It's a thouroughly enjoyable experience and I've recommended it to anyone who likes the batman combat system, or the Mad Max setting in general.

Edit: It does have one or two showstopping bugs (being unable to proceed with the main story due to a bug) but I was able to find a work around stickied in the forums here.
