(click to show/hide)HE'S NOT WHAT I'M FUCKING LOOKING FOR!! IF I WANTED TO LOOK FOR BATMAN I WOULD TYPE FUCKING "BATMAN" INTO THE FUCKING SEARCH ENGINE!The worst part is, "Death Knight" and "Dark Knight" and what have you tend to carry different connotations, so you can't just use "Death Knight" as a synonym because it isn't!There's Shadowknight, too, which also carries its own connotations but generally encompasses both Death Knight and Dark Knight, but then you get THIS! (click to show/hide)SEARCH ENGINES ARGHAnd to make matters worse, almost no one uses Shadowknight outside of the Everquest community... so you can't even succeed at THAT.tl;dr: Batman is preventing me from getting my geek on.Might I suggest searching, instead, for Blackguard? Its got similar connotations and may yield more desirable results.I'll try that, yeah. Might run into the same problem of Shadowknight (as in "not enough people use it") but anything's worth a shot.@IronbiteFuck you go back to playing Arkham Origins/City/Asylum
