I'm not saying that people, including you shouldn't be mourning someone they saw on the news; so don't call me an edgy, miserable person in the comments. It's just that "some" people use the comments as a way to be performative. You might agree with some points and disagree with others. I'll try my best to answer if I can.

Say you encounter a news report online about a person who died in an accident, whether on Facebook or YouTube or whatever, and you'll guarantee to see comments saying "RIP" or whatever. It's performative just a way to make people think that they're a good person.

1: They don't actually know the person. They only learned about them when they saw that article that mentions that they're dead, never met them once in their life. For some family members, it's random people invading their privacy while they grieve.

2: The families most of the time won't see the comments if it's aimed at them. There are exceptions, like if someone comments that they knew the victim and everyone replies "I'm sorry for your loss" of if the family was actually scrolling through the comments and felt comfort, I'm alright with that. But most of the time the family isn't scrolling through some random news article reading the comments so the comments are never seen by them.

3: A few people might not even care about them. They only post "RIP" to gain likes so that they feel like a good person.

4: Everyone seems to think that the victim was the kindest person in the world. The news paints them that way. But in reality, they might've been a bully, a criminal or just someone being a jerk to their neighbors in general.

5: Religious people who comment "Praying for the family," or "God give them strength." I'm not that kind of Atheist of debates with Christians online and calls every religious person stupid. But man, they just insert their religion into this. They don't even know if the victim or their family follows those same beliefs; they could be Muslim, Hindu, Atheist, etc. What if the Atheist family member was scrolling the comments and see people inserting their own God into this?

6: The cycle, people would comment "RIP" before scrolling onto another post/video, forgetting about the tragedy a few days later at most. Their grief lasts like 30 seconds but the family's grief lasts much longer than that.

7: In some cases where the family sets up a GoFundMe to cover funeral costs or hospital bills, it prevents them from getting money that they can really use. Heck, I've seen people's GoFundMe covering their lost loved ones not make any money at all but yet a news article about them has more activity with "RIP" comments, even if there's a link to their GoFundMe, it doesn't reach the goal. Since for some people, writing a "RIP" is the only thing that makes them a good person instead of donating to their GoFundMe. Because of this the family might end up in debt or even lose their own home because people aren't actually helping the family.

Once again, I'm not being edgy; not everyone in the comment section is performative; only some people are like this.

We can pretty much easily make up the stories for chapters 1-3 through the story logs in the Batcave. I'm not going into every level, or guess which villains will appear in which chapter, I'm going to go off by who is the main antagonist and which allies will be introduced

Chapter 1: Commissioner Gordon as main ally and Red Hood as main antagonist (Riddler is in this chapter but is likely only there for the puzzle boxes)

Chapter 2: Catwoman as main ally and Penguin as main villain (Joker is introduced in this chapter to and will appear a few times throughout the game)

Chapter 3: Robin as main ally and Bane as main antagonist (we know Two Face and Poison Ivy are villains in this chapter along with Mr. Freeze in a cutscene but I don't think Mr. Freeze be a boss in this chapter as evidenced with Nightwing and Batgirl present in his boss fight in the recent trailer)

The remaining 3 chapters are purely speculative by me.

Chapter 4: Firefly and Mr. Freeze as main antagonists with Batgirl and Nightwing being introduced.

Chapter 5: Ra's al Ghul as the main antagonist with Talia al Ghul as main ally.

Chapter 6: Joker as main antagonist with the finale boss having you play as all the previous characters (assuming Tim Drake takes over Robin's role when he turns into Nightwing.)
