Something I Have Been Thinking About Concerning Joker
What if he's a figment of Bruce's imagination? I mean am I the only one who noticed he knew a lot about Vickie and her plan? He was never really interacting with anyone else and I know you get to ask around about him but consider this you meet him in the freaking Psych Ward and he shows at a point where Bruce is clearly about to snap. I also noticed something when you fight in Arkham it's like he knows you and I swear it is weird how he seems to know Bruce and is good at pushing buttons. Also John is a pretty common name when you ask about him people might think your referring to someone else. Also since your technically considered crazy the Doctors might be humoring you.

Actually that's a good theory and it would point to why no doctors had records of him. It would be a Sixth Sense twist lol.
Impossible. John has been interacting with people. Doctor, man with talking sock, Zszasz; they all know him. How would Bruce learned about Vicki's name? And remote? It doesn't teleport.
Just that Bruce couldn't magically find out that he should go to Vicki's foster parent's house and magically find out his dad killed Vicki's parents. Joker also interacts with Zsas, the Ventriloquist, Doctor Leland, Gordon, and he beats up the 2 patience who attacked Bruce. Also Joker's real name isnt John Doe, thats just a name usually given to people that others dont know their name.
To quote Doctor Strange from The Batman "The criminally insane create their own reality." wow I just realized that actually would fit the Tell Tale games pretty well. Maybe what we see is how Bruce interprets reality maybe as a child he discovered the truth and as a coping mechanism created Joker. So he naturally perceives Joker in whatever way he needs to.
Thanks honestly I think a good way of going about it would be for Joker to mess with Bruce and make him question what is real and what's not. Like imply that a bunch of random murders are being committed by a insane Bruce make the player question whether Bruce is hallucinating or not and then BAM!!! Joker is revealed to be real.
Did the drug make people hallucinate? Just being in a psych ward won't make you hallucinate an entire person
John Doe is the name given to a male whose real name is unknown, for example a dead unidentified body. There's no way joker was merely imagined as he interacted with other people on multiple occasions not to mention there's no way for Bruce to imagine him when they're in 2 separate places (i.e. final scene of ep 5).
I am saying he's a multiple personality and a result of Bruce's subconscious. He told Bruce things that Bruce had likely deduced subconsciously and honestly what he told Bruce was rather easy to figure out especially if you know what Bruce knows at this point. Wait was the scene of him watching the TV live or was it a recorded broadcast?
He also interacted with other people and they flat out mention him
It was something Bruce had certainly never seen before since it was talking about Harvey putting him in Arkham and Bruce had only woken up from the drug (and if he was sedated to stop him from killing Oswald) mere minutes before.
It's possible Joker knew about Vicky because she had previously been gathering information on arkham asylum. and its inhabitants. In this way, he could've learned about her and put two and two together.
Nah, Joker interacts and his ending moment is disconnected from Bruce. Plus TT would be torn apart for stealing from another Batman game if they took the Joker is in Batman's head angle.
