One of the most common reports are about a bug that locks the mouse into a specific part of the screen once a resolution higher than 720p has been set. The game's Steam page currently has nearly 400 negative reviews, describing all sorts of problems. Though myself and many had hoped supposed engine upgrades would hopefully be the start of a new era for the studio's games, it seems there's been little to no change in the technical department. It's running into issues on machines of varying spec, it has a laughably limited set of graphics options - and of course, the Telltale mainstay, bad or non-existent controller support. The PC version of Batman: The Telltale Series has all the marks of a Telltale game. "It's certainly possible that the writing will hit its stride now that the awkward reintroductions are out of the way, but as of right now it feels like Telltale's Batman is riding on the coattails, cape and cowl of far greater stories.Steam users are not happy with how the PC port of Batman: The Telltale Series has turned out. "This rendition of Gotham and its denizens doesn't feel anywhere near as rich, detailed or as layered as ones we've encountered before," she said in her Batman: Episode One impressions. Our resident Batman expert Aoife Wilson wasn't entirely smitten by Telltale's Batman, albeit for different reasons. Telltale likewise has a history of poorly optimised PC ports.

This isn't the Caped Crusader's first cataclysm on Steam as last year's Batman: Arkham Knight was similarly derided for its poor PC performance. So far the game has 900 positive reviews and only 384 negative, but the ones rated "most helpful" are overwhelmingly in the latter category. It's not all doom and gloom for Bats, however. "I run better than this game and I'm fat." -Thekareem501 "Buggy!

If I can play TWD and The Wolf Among Us with absolutely no issues, this shouldn't be as terrible as it is." -OnoDWeber #BATTMAN TELLTALE STEAM FRAMERATE HOW TO#"Even after taking 15 minutes to figure out how to make the game 1080p and fullscreen, I couldn't start the game, as my mouse was stuck in a box in the upper left of the screen, making it impossible to hit the continue button on the brightness slider." -Dr. Here's a few excerpts from Steam's most helpful user reviews: The main complaints are that it has an abysmal framerate (even on high end machines) and that a host of glitches prevent the game from even being playable. By most accounts the actual content of the game is fine, if not revolutionary, but the criticism stems from a litany of technical issues resulting in a buggy, poorly optimised PC port.
