Something that is starting to thankfully be more known to people, is that Joker was originally planned to be treated like Catwoman in Arkham City, and get his own story campaign that would be connected to Batman's, and also have a full unique playable take on the character, which unfortunately got cancelled.
he had a unique variety of gadgets and gameplay mechanics too
and his gameplay would be significantly different from Batman
Joker was almost Arkham Origins' 2nd Main Playable Character
jolly fossil

It’s a shame they basically had to scrap it in order to get the 2013 release. Fuck WB, seriously.
I think only one of these episodes fully made it in, which is the bit where he’s in blackgate and talking to harleen.

kinda
JES/Joker Exotic Sequence wasn't planned originally
they only made it due to the cut
they didn't had enough time or resources to work on the whole thing, so they shortened it to a single section

ye, plus they even have a prototype parameter for the game, that indicates all of the names of the maps that joker had
they tested with joker before they even had a story draft done

There was the recycled museum map right?
Aswell as the light and power? Were there any more?
tropic delta
yep way more
he also had the rooftops map which we can't know for sure if it was light and power or not
i doubt it was light and power though
tropic delta
the entrance was different tho
tropic delta
they ended up repurposing light and power's entrance for blackgate
dusky vapor
Ahhhhhhh
dusky vapor
Yeah
tropic delta
damn, you saw this stuff before?
dusky vapor
Saw the big long entry on origins cut content
tropic delta
ah ok
dusky vapor
On that website
dusky vapor
I don’t think it was that
It had the video of the unfinished trident labs mission
Half the images had been deleted to
tropic delta
i see
ah ok
it's probably my old documentation then
that a friend of mine turned into a post or smth
anyway, that finding regarding Light and Power is actually very recent
dusky vapor
Don’t see how both levels were condensed into what we find in the game
How would that make sense?

@tropic delta you think your could possibly restore the character fully? Maybe even the maps?
tropic delta
<@405416260181164033> you think your could possibly restore the character fully?...
no, and no
for the character, i don't i will ever be able to do a 1:1 recreation of what they had done on that time, and what they envisioned for the character

Sadge
tropic delta
as for the maps, won't be able to do anything unless another build that predates the oldest one, leaks
tropic delta
it's not about when it leaked
it's about when it was cooked/compiled
december 6 2012
dev kits of splash damage
the oldest known build is a july 18 2012 one
dusky vapor
Is that my alibi?
