Fun, charming, but ultimately frustrating.
The Enemy Within lets you shape and navigate your way through not only an entire relationship, that being the one with John Doe, but also in the direction and creation of The Joker.

One that isn't afraid to delve into the idea of friendship, humanity, and what technological breakthroughs can bring us as a species.
Morbid curiosity perhaps, just to see an example of a rushed, broken, and featureless game passing itself off as a premium sports experience.
No, a great thing.
