there's no trump everything parry button in those games
Have you actually tried winning a fight with just the counter button? It doesn't work. You just fight almost endlessly because counter on its own doesn't do much damage. The actual basic attacks are yeah basically a QTE, but the point isn't playing a fighting game or even Devil May Cry game, it's positioning and tactics. The Arkham games aren't fighting games, they're Batman simulators; if you had to be able to pull off complex fighting game combos just to make Batman look and feel like Batman then it would be frustrating rather than empowering. This is why the combat is as much stealth, weapons, maneuvering, how you start a fight, etc as it is actual fighting. The game has to make you feel like Batman was also balancing the skill ceiling for doing so, otherwise the only people who'd get to feel like Bats would be lameass Git Gud bros.
