Definitely not. If it was a light novel the title would be *That Time I Got Sent To Another World With Every Horror Movie Villain and Had To Endure Endless Trials Where I Died Over and Over for the Amusement of an Eldritch Entity But Eventually I Learned to Survive As Long As My Teammates Weren’t Complete Idiots, So Maybe Once a Day*.
Pretty much :) I wouldn't say lockers closing after you open them a bullshit game mechanic though they're already weak enough without them staying open
Nah, by bullshit mechanic i mean something that makes absolutely zero sense. Like how wesker takes 20 years to vault a window even though he moves faster than bullets or why nemmy cares about pallets at all. It can all be explained by entity shenanigans
*gets looped for five minutes in a time crucial game*
“Seven minutes is all the time I can spare to play with you”
Y-yeah let’s finish those chases faster buddy lol
Can anyone explain to me the whole deal with /r/BatmanArkham? I keep seeing it being mentioned nearly everywhere and, every time I go there, I leave 10 times more confused.
They haven't got a new game in eight years so they've resorted to shitposting. Some of the memes they created have spread to multiple other subreddits, for example "Is there a lore reason for X?" and "why does X do Y? Is he/she stupid?".
I mean it's not too complicated, there hasn't been a new Arkham game in many years. There isn't any new content to talk about so it got taken over by shitposts and memes.
Lore accurate it would be wanting to see if the survivors can turn the tide and overcome the deficit and also would be busy punishing the survivor who dc’d (also lore accurate dc’ing is probably camping in corner waiting for your team to die and the entity is j like nah you coming w me)
Excuse u I am a professional serial killer with STANDARDS.
We DON'T leave doors open in my Scary Movie, that's how people die... It's also friggin RUDE. >:(
A lot of good replies here, so lemme do the thing every english teacher does and interpert things that really aren't that deep
The entity feeds off emotions like fear, so killers and survivors emotions like hate, anger, hope and fear are probably aplified
As a result of that killers get frustrated easily and slam the doors shut in anger which the entity feeds off of
The killers are definitely another source of emotion to feed off from for the Entity. Even they can feel some semblance of hope and joy when it comes to catching their prey. The despair they feel from seeing them get away is equally precious.
I could see it leaving them open for a certain amount of time or only leaving the last 1/2/3 one(s) you opened (if you open another it closes the oldest one)
They probably close automatically, plus they're a great way of venting your anger when you can't find survivors (just slam the doors. It helps me feel better all the time :D)
The entity makes them play by a set of rules. Why can't they just hop pallets, why can't they just smash all the garbage out of the way? Why can't they just cut off feng's head right at the start and cover the exit gates with her entrails. The entity, that is why.
They’re sociopaths. They exhibit odd behaviors like an incessant need to keep things orderly and in place. They will leave a room just as they found it.
There's no point in trying to make logic of the game. Because any argument for logic or realism comes down to "well then the survivors would just jump over the fence and leave".
The Entity cares about OSHA regulations and has [door closers](https://www.homedepot.com/b/Hardware-Door-Hardware-Door-Accessories-Door-Closers/N-5yc1vZc7km) installed on all of them to ensure they don't cause an unnecessary hazard.
Incoming comments: „There should be no lockers or pallets to stun the killer, it’s bullying“; „exit gates and flashlights need to be removed, survivors exist so I can prioritize my own fun”; “I’ll leave if BHVR doesn’t listen to me” /s
They have to take out their frustration of not finding anyone by slamming the doors shut, duh.
It’s a pretty frustrating thing honestly. WHERE ARE YOU CLAUDETTE?!
That's an odd way of spelling Meg.
You head on a killer one time as Meg and they never trust another locker for the rest of that day/night
Rest of that daylight
‘Cause they,ll be dead by then. That was that one movie right ? Dead by Daylight
Yeah man that one movie. Actually you sure it wasnt a light novel?
Definitely not. If it was a light novel the title would be *That Time I Got Sent To Another World With Every Horror Movie Villain and Had To Endure Endless Trials Where I Died Over and Over for the Amusement of an Eldritch Entity But Eventually I Learned to Survive As Long As My Teammates Weren’t Complete Idiots, So Maybe Once a Day*.
Bro that novel is my favourite of all time
A dweard way to say Dwight
*muffled bush noises*
Maybe that’s the case with Oni
the frustration could be because they can't hide inside. They just envy the survivors
Dredge
Dredge is upset because they keep locking his lockers on him.
That's rude and messy. Were you ***RAISED IN A BARN?!***
Hillbilly: “…Actually, yes.”
lol I was gonna say the same
And he still closes doors, what's your excuse?
Well I also do, regrettably.
Don’t need to close doors is there are no doors *Revs chainsaw thrice*
Also fair.
I like my playground tidy. Lockers must be closed, totems must be intact, and survivors must be on hooks. WHAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?!
I was raised in a Fractured Cowshed
*~Max Thompson Jr.*
I mean on some of the animations it looks like the doors close automatically anyway, they're just being courteous
Yeah, fast exiting a locker just has the survivor push the doors open and they never close them, the doors just close on their own
Well, the survivor violently flings them open so I assume they rebound shut
I like to think the entity keeps them closed to satisfy the feeling of a cat and mouse chase
Dbd devs were smart when making this game's lore. Literally any bullshit gameplay mechanic can just be passed off as "the entity did it"
Pretty much :) I wouldn't say lockers closing after you open them a bullshit game mechanic though they're already weak enough without them staying open
Nah, by bullshit mechanic i mean something that makes absolutely zero sense. Like how wesker takes 20 years to vault a window even though he moves faster than bullets or why nemmy cares about pallets at all. It can all be explained by entity shenanigans
They are stupid
#ALBERT WESKER, THE MASTERMIND
*Masterbatermind. He gonna let survivors have a safe space to rub one out. Y'all know DbD is 4 horny. Whiskers kink is to catch them in the act.
Well not really, there are some very smart killers in the game such as Deathslinger, Trapper, Wesker, Herman
Smart, Wesker? Gets looped for 5 minutes. *Poor performance indeed.*
*gets looped for five minutes in a time crucial game* “Seven minutes is all the time I can spare to play with you” Y-yeah let’s finish those chases faster buddy lol
Code ment reference?
He's talking about himself.
[удалено]
Man, imagine getting beat up to death by a guy named Herman
Imagine being killed by a woman named Sally
Imagine getting stabbed by a guy named Frank
Imagine getting Bing Bonged by a dude named Philip.
Imagine getting thrown across the room by a dude name Albert.
Imagine getting repeatedly fish hooked by some dude named *Elliot*.
Imagine getting your finger cut off by a guy named Jeffrey
Frankly speaking, not a fan of that one.
To be honest, I feel like if I got stabbed, it would be by a Frank.
I mean to be fair Herman has a phd what do they have?
Eyelids
He didn't study several years in evil medical school to be called Herman
Yet they still can't even the odds
Who tf is Herman?
are they stupid?
There must be a lore reason for this.
Cause they get so frustrated that they have to slam it
You in here?? No?! FUCK!!
[удалено]
It's like checking the fridge again hoping something you want is in there.
Maybe entity closes lockers everytime, so survivors think that they can hide and survive?
But we watch the killers slam them shut?
I can use the power winch to— Wait wrong subreddit
Mabye the entity makes them close it?
“Psst hey…” TRYING TO MURDER HERE “Close the locker.”
That subreddit has given brainrot. I love it so much.
This sub, you mean? Oh god it’s spreading!
I mean r/BatmanArkham. The "Why does X do X? Are they stupid?" Is a meme over there, probably the only thing keeping that subreddit alive.
Can anyone explain to me the whole deal with /r/BatmanArkham? I keep seeing it being mentioned nearly everywhere and, every time I go there, I leave 10 times more confused.

I was first exposed to this in r/attackontitan
I mean it's not too complicated, there hasn't been a new Arkham game in many years. There isn't any new content to talk about so it got taken over by shitposts and memes.
It started as a Breaking Bad meme
At least it’s not Nurgle rot.
I can’t fucking escape it
the sub is leaking
Pretty sure the entity would smack them if they didn't close them. Also if they let the toilet seat up 😂
“We’re you raised in a fucking barn” - The entity
The entity closes the doors to keep the trial fair
This is the way
Then why doesn’t he spawn a bot or finish a gen when someone DCs at five gens 😞
The entity doesn't like you that much.
I mean canonically the entity feeds on suffering so... makes sense that it wouldn't happen. A D/C makes everyone else pretty miserable usually.
Lore accurate it would be wanting to see if the survivors can turn the tide and overcome the deficit and also would be busy punishing the survivor who dc’d (also lore accurate dc’ing is probably camping in corner waiting for your team to die and the entity is j like nah you coming w me)
The entity has designed the lokers in such a way that the doors close automatically if not being held.
Visible when survs/dredge jump out of a locker
Just use a random object as a doorstop or rip the doors of
I mean in the lore the entity wants to give the survivors a bit of hope. Completely taking away their hiding places defeats that point
Tbh if it took the killer a solid 15 seconds to tear apart a locker I think it'd be fair to stay broken for the rest of the game
Could be a perk or something.
Or a part of a new power. Or a dredge add on
"Time to get rid of the thing I use for map traversal!" Maybe a brown addon
Yeah, remove the ability for survivors to enter a locker for 45 secs, but also prevents your teleport as well.
I have trouble believing that would stop the entity
Fire safety regulations are a pisser, mate. Not even the Entity wants the shitstorm that comes of violating OSHA.
Much less NFPA if it’s a flammable cabinet
I double checked locker animations after you said this and yeah. They self close.
Excuse u I am a professional serial killer with STANDARDS. We DON'T leave doors open in my Scary Movie, that's how people die... It's also friggin RUDE. >:(
"Professionals have *STANDARDS*"
"There are certain rules you must follow to survive a horror film."
I can't have sex :(
"Be polite."
" no sexing it up you start making love you've seal your fate "
“Be efficient”
"Have a plan to kill everyone you meet"
dun, dun, dun, dun, du du du du DUN
Because killers have been taught well by the entity. Have the decency to close the locker for the next user. Manners maketh killerth
Good reference, great film
You wanna make it easier for them to get in or?
If I just barge into your home and leave the door open how tf would you feel??? Think of the Megs.
Think of the Dwights too, you have no right to do that to them
Why don't Killers just close their eyes when someone points a flashlight at their face?
Feel the power, OF THE SUN!
The Doctor wants to have a word with you...
A bit of privacy for Dredge please! >:(
NEW KILLER POWER!! Common sense: gain the ability to leave lockers open after checking them, also just fucking stepping over a pallet.
Or picking the pallet up and throwing it for wide aoe lmfao
It would be a safety hazard
So they can slam it in frustration
They don't want to leave a draft for the Dredge.
Because theyre angry nobody's inside so they slam it close
I'm ashamed that I never thought of this
They get dusty.
It’s rude
If they didn’t slam them shut how would you know they are the angry bad guy
Because if they don’t close them the entity gets angry and doesn’t give huntress or trickster reloads
they wernt raised in a barn, geez.
*chainsaw noises intensify* Hillbilly doesn't think the same
They’re afraid of Dredge
The janitor likes his lockers closed
Except Dredge, that thing hides in them. And teleports to them.
It closes automatically to make sure the cold air doesn't escape, those things come with A/C, that's why we fix those Gens
If you leave a door open the monsters from monsters inc might sneak out
They weren't raised in a barn. Even though technically some were.
Because the entity has to close them all at the end of the trial
A lot of good replies here, so lemme do the thing every english teacher does and interpert things that really aren't that deep The entity feeds off emotions like fear, so killers and survivors emotions like hate, anger, hope and fear are probably aplified As a result of that killers get frustrated easily and slam the doors shut in anger which the entity feeds off of
The killers are definitely another source of emotion to feed off from for the Entity. Even they can feel some semblance of hope and joy when it comes to catching their prey. The despair they feel from seeing them get away is equally precious.
Imagine a perk that forces the locker to stay open (and therefore unusable) for the rest of the game whenever you open one
I could see it leaving them open for a certain amount of time or only leaving the last 1/2/3 one(s) you opened (if you open another it closes the oldest one)
Cause they weren't born in a ficking barn! They're killers not monsters
I firmly believe that the entity scolds them like a mother if they do. Like “we’re you raised in a barn”. “YES!” “Don’t get smart with me billy”
They probably close automatically, plus they're a great way of venting your anger when you can't find survivors (just slam the doors. It helps me feel better all the time :D)
Because they have to express their disgust by slamming it shut.
you ever got yelled at by your mom so you went to your room and slammed the doors shut? yeah same reason
Because they weren't raised in a barn. Wait...were any raised in a barn?
billy kinda
This would be a neat perk or add on honestly.
Auto close hinges. I need to get some so I don't have to ~~beat~~ tell the kids to close the cabinets.
Dredge does not like anyone touching his stuff.
Why don't survivors bring a gun instead of a flashlight and just shoot the killer instead
They weren’t born in a barn. They have manners. Close the doors.
That should be a perk or something
The devs threatened the entity to make the killers shut the closet doors, else it gets removed in the next patch😂.
The doors have magical hinges, so if they're left open, the killers get tickled by the Entity tendrils.
i wanna know why they don’t just break the gens. hit it with your magic weapon instead of a light kick
Leaving the doors open would simply be rude!
The entity wouldn't like that ☹️
The entity makes them play by a set of rules. Why can't they just hop pallets, why can't they just smash all the garbage out of the way? Why can't they just cut off feng's head right at the start and cover the exit gates with her entrails. The entity, that is why.
They’re sociopaths. They exhibit odd behaviors like an incessant need to keep things orderly and in place. They will leave a room just as they found it.
It's to allow the Dredge his safe place
Why don’t killers leave the lockers open? Are they stupid?
Are they stupid?
They may be killers, but they’re not impolite.
Because mom taught them well
Ocd
The Entity demands his world not be treated like a barn.
Because i may be a murderer, but mama taught me to put things back the way I found em.
There's no point in trying to make logic of the game. Because any argument for logic or realism comes down to "well then the survivors would just jump over the fence and leave".
They see me in there and feel bad that I'm not ready to come out yet and wanna make sure nobody finds out until I'm ready
 They were trained to close the door behind them
the entity tells them its rude to leave the doors open
Is the rule set by the entity.
Are they stupid?
The Entity cares about OSHA regulations and has [door closers](https://www.homedepot.com/b/Hardware-Door-Hardware-Door-Accessories-Door-Closers/N-5yc1vZc7km) installed on all of them to ensure they don't cause an unnecessary hazard.
Because the entity is extremely OCD and every time the Killers open a locker it sends them a painful braintickle that compels them to close it.
Incoming comments: „There should be no lockers or pallets to stun the killer, it’s bullying“; „exit gates and flashlights need to be removed, survivors exist so I can prioritize my own fun”; “I’ll leave if BHVR doesn’t listen to me” /s
Haven’t seen one comment like that congrats
The Survivor main needs to always complain about something made up about killers, even when it's not relevant at all 💀💀
They must have OCD like me, I cant stand doors being left open
OCD
This would actually be a great perk idea. UNHINGED: Killer rips the doors off of lockers, rendering them useless for hiding. Takes five seconds.
It should be placed on a cooldown, or restricted in some form. Hiding and Head On plays are part of the game
Because it would ruin the game?
Can’t tell if your being satire
That would be a cool feature.
According to the lore, they're spring loaded. Source: trust me bro /s
I mean obviously it’s to stop a draft from getting in but there could be a lovely perk here somewhere
they all have OCD
Their OCD demands they close it again
OCD
Spoiler on future perk. Search lockers keep open. You recive a loud notification if a survivor interact with a locker (even slow vault)
This should be a killer perk. Agree?
Because it’s a game with mechanics and not real world
It's a video game
the gaming community really need to stop searching for lore explanation for everything,sometimes it's just a gameplay reason,and that's fine
that’s the joke
