Exactly.  
Terry is a teenager, cocksure, confident, snarky, and to a point deluded by his youth.  Because he’s younger and less experienced he was more likely to take on a little too much, and relied on Bruce to help him out with the details.  Terry was a scrapper, a fighter, not a detective.

That being said, his methods were effective, and his personal life and the balance between it and his ’(k)night’ life made him compelling.  He was like a good balance between Paul Dini written Kevin Conroy acted Batman, and Spiderman.  He was serious, but witty.  He was dark, but knew how to lighten up and approach a problem from different, or even unorthodox positions.

Because he was so different from his father (Yeah, apparently Bruce Wayne is Terry’s biological father, spoilers.) in upbringing and attitude he separated himself from his predecessor and redefined Batman for a new setting.

Now, we need a Batman Beyond movie.  Now.  Do it.  DO IT DC!
