Post-game is just a sandbox. Peter is defacto retired and Spider-Man may well involve Miles teaching his step-sister Cindy Moon (Silk) to use her powers. Edit: this game cucked him to fuck. Insomniac will definitely aim to sideline him again. Even if he does appear, he'll play second fiddle to both Miles and Cindy. Marvel has basically hated Peter for years at this point. Edit 2: the writers have confirmed in an article with Gizmodo that Miles is the main Spider-Man moving forward for the sequel

For me it's tough to say. The first one has a much better story in my opinion, but the second one I'd say has better gameplay and bossfights. The surprise factor of course also isn't really there, because it's a sequel.
@InhabitantOfOddworld11 ай бұрын
I agree. The first game's story was a pretty cool and original take. Spider-Man 2 feels full of fan service by using Sandman, Venom, and Harry, but also suffers from Spider-Man 3 Syndrome by rushing the whole thing and not giving proper justice to any aspect of those story beats.

I don't remember much of the boss fights from and perhaps that can be seen as a detriment, but I hate that all the bosses in 2 pretty much play the exact same. Of the two bosses I remember from the first, Shocker and Doc Oc, they were both unique and asked a bit out of the player. All the bosses in 2 are essentially a game of patty cake where you parry all their attacks except when you can't. That itself wouldn't be so bad but bosses only have 1 or 2 strings which lead the battle to get repetitive before you even finish their first health bar.

I think everyone played the game a little to fast. Not a big issue, but also pacing is an issue. Since everything moves SOO fast in this game, and since everyone played the game really quickly, it just moves even faster than maybe intended. I do believe there should be more side missions and more story missions not involved w/ the main story. Like random villains or stuff like that. And since there isn’t, everything just moves from plot point to plot point quick af

The biggest thing with Spider-Man 2 right now is that it doesn't have a good post game in comparison to Spider-Man Ps4 (which had all the enemy bases) and Spider-Man Miles Morales (which had total control over the crime activity). I'm expecting future updates may reintegrate these features down the line, a New game plus (which was something added later in the previous games after their releases), and DLC that can cover maybe both the Chameleon and Carnage subplots.
@cameron608511 ай бұрын
This is my main complaint. They’re adding new game plus which fixes this a bit but I’ve done everything except for a few Emily may missions and I’m just swinging around and stopping random crimes. Great side content but not a lot. So it’s in desperate need of DLC to really push that post game.
@MegasXRL11 ай бұрын
Yeah, the game lacks content thats for sure. I think they were with miles morales in mind and not spider man 1 when doing the content for that game lol Just one set of goons and bases is really a shame. You have all those new cool symbiote skills just to punch hunters? They had to keep the simbiots alive, which is very off the canon because they should all die (including the nests) to give us another enemies to fight post game But then even after killing all nests they still remain on game But for me the biggest problem is that the story is too short The first act is too long (in a first moment i DON’T THINK it is long, it is perfectly paced introducing harry agent venom and the hunters) but if you are giving us 15 missions of first act then give us at least more 30 missions in the game! We barely had the symbiote for 9 missions then lose it.. ok agent venom gives us the skills back but not bully lowenthal

In my opinion gameplay wise its way better but storywise I much prefer the first game. The second game's story never hit as hard as the first game did with Otto's downfall and May's death. Harry's (almost) death didn't have anywhere near as much as an impact for me and I think that might be because of the amount of things this game has going on. Because the first game had less going on, it had more time to flesh out the characters and really made me feel for them more. The villains in Spider-man 2 were just weaker in my opinion. Kraven was boring unlike Mr Negative who was a fresh villain most spider-man fans were unaware of. Kraven doesn't have any personal connection to Spider-man which in my opinion makes the conflict less interesting while Mr Negative works with Aunt May which makes that story way more personal and therefore way more interesting for me. Even thoughTony Todd's performance as venom was so fucking good, I wasn't anywhere near as invested in where the story was going with him as I was with Doctor Octopus as I think there was more time spent on developing Peter's relationship with Otto as there was with Peter's relationship with Harry. Despite this there is still plenty of stuff with the second game I prefer to the first game. Like I loved how the second game explored Miles' anger at Li for taking his dad from him and actually explored this in a good amount of depth. They then let Miles come to know Li and start to understand his pain and even though Miles never forgives Li he lets go of his hatred and this whole arc is just done incredibly well. Not only does Miles let go of his hatred but he makes Li a better person. This is exactly the type of thing spider-man would do and it just shows how well the writers actually understand the character of spider-man. Both games highlight the sacrifices that come with being spider-man and although I think the first game does this better, I still think both of them definitely have their merits
@JonTheJedi11 ай бұрын
Kraven’s depth comes from the fact that he wants to die on his feet to a true challenger, very Spartan like. Is it as impactful as him having a personal tie with Peter? No of course not, but not ever villain needs to. I like that all of Kraven’s motivations are all personal to himself and really tragic in a way. While I didn’t agree with his villainy I think it’s understandable as human beings to want to go out on our own terms. Plus I like how each villain had different motivations. Li and Doc Oc both just wanted Norman to pay, for different reasons sure, but same motivation none the less.
@spider-man50011 ай бұрын
I agree with everything but Kraven I think Kraven was awesome BECAUSE he had no ties to Peter. You had to work to understand his motivations, just to find out he's a fucking psycho. He is actually purely bad. No sympathy at all. We need villains who are just bad. And he actually got what he wanted: A glorious death I definitely agree with Venom as Harry. I like Harry, but his fall was knowhere as impactful as Otto. Also, Harry as Venom is a huge mistake to me. Apart of Venom's character is that they both hate Peter. Eddie for having his career ruined by Peter, and Venom being like an angry EX who wants to get revenge for being dumped. They have a reason to team up Also the Symbiote Invasion was stupid, something like that should NOT be crammed into a third act. It needs whole game focus. Miles' arc with Lee was good, but that's it. The rest of his story sucks. And just takes away the time we could be adding more into Peter's Symbiote Arc. And I think the biggest waste is Peter's Symbiote Arc. It was nor onlt rushed, but according to the game only lasted for a few days? REALLY?! He should of had the Symbiote for 70-80% of the story. A longer story as well(Story was too short in my opinion) I'm just gonna say it, if they wanted to "Reinvent" Venom as they said, then they should of made Peter Venom Like you said about Otto being the main person to "Fall" in the first game, I think despite Harry being painted as the main one, Peter's Fall was the better of the 2. What if they made the entire story focus on Peter's Fall, and he does fall so hard he becomes Venom, turning from the lead protagonist into the lead antagonist of the game. They can aline that with Miles, but with Miles put all the focus on his revenge Arc instead of the boring filler that came with it. And instead of making Harry the villain, make him the moral compass like May was. Where despite his sickness, he would rather die saying goodbye and being the one to "save" Peter, than be a Symbiote monster

The more I think about it Spider Man's 1 story is better overall because the characters were more developed. Of course we know who Harry is, but we don't know Insomniac Harry that well. There wasn't enough development with him to make me care. Tbh it developed MJ more than it did Harry when MJ is pretty developed already. But they did well considering they had to balance out two stories in the same game. The symbiote arc was my favorite but it felt just a bit too short.
@hazelcrisp11 ай бұрын
There a complete dissonance. I'm not a big Spidey fan so I don't really know who Harry was. He's just Peter's and MJ's friend from way back. I don't really know what the three of them have been through together. And the game doesn't do a good job at establishing their bond. So when the cast gets sad about Harry's health... I found myself not caring because I personally don't care about him or have any emotional connection to him. I think the game just expects me to fill in the blanks and care. But I did not have the emotional investment in the slightest to care.

In my opinion, compared to the previous games, the story is impressive, even the presence of venom and the symbiote suit, but it's not as good as the previous games, The gameplay, well, it got better in the sequel, infact, both miles and peter got new finishers, then peter could also use the symbiote suit which is the badass part of the game and miles could use his ultrasonic explosion (idk really how's it called) which is so OP that literally K.O the villains around him, in the game it also got revamped and it's kinda way better than miles morales, the exploration literally got way way better than the previous games, in marvel's spiderman 1 and miles morales, the map was kinda small and the swinging is slow, better not talk about marvel's avengers, the swinging is really really slow in that game, BUT, in marvel's spiderman 2 everything got better, the map got even more bigger than the previous games and the swinging is faster and decent like Spiderman web of shadows. One thing that i don't like about the sequel is that, the map in the previous games felt so rich, but the sequel's map kinda feels empty, like everything you visit, it's just the same as the previous city you visited in the game, the map is still good tho, you can have fun with pro swinging, worth it. But anyways, in my opinion MSM2 really surpassed the previous games, talking about graphic and physics, they're impressive to me, as someone who completed the game, when peter transforms into the symbiote it literally gives me chills, nothing anymore to say about the game, i repeat, it might be the game of the year but there are some issues that for real need to be improved by insomniac, infact, in this age the people are lazy to make games, so they're like this, if they continue like this, it might be that the next game might get more hate tho.

Ps: You should know it Peter never really stops he always comes back and anyway he doesn't really say it that he stops it definitively, he just takes a break. in the DLC we will undoubtedly incarnate Miles, we will have a Spider-Man Miles Morales 2 to develop Cindy Moon and a game dedicated to the latter and in the third Peter will return it is logical for me, we cannot do the Green Goblin without Peter is like making Robin and Joker fight.

Hot take: I always will prefer Eddie Brock as venom. I enjoyed harry as venom, But Eddie Brock I enjoy him as like a rival and that there is actual connection between him and the symbionts.
Generall, yeah. But the thing is lacks is that wow factor that the first game had. It's not really its fault as Insomniac just 100% nailed absolutely everything in the first game. So now the sequel is largely just a iterative update.

I think the story in Spider Man remastered was better, but the fact that Venom took over New York just made Spider Man 2 better. Plus the fact you could play as him was unreal. If insomniac releases a carnage or chameleon dlc I will say that Spider Man 2 is 100% better

I feel like the Venom story was a little disappointing, what happened to Venom being an evil monster who wants to torment Peter and make his life hell and kill him? when did it become venom wanting to take over the world web of shadows style. I feel like due to venoms popularity people tend to forget he's main focus is Destroying Spiderman, i get with the story its about healing the world and what not but he didn't even want to kill peter he wanted him to Join him like huh? They could've made Venoms plot a lot more personal and go into more of harry being jealous of how norman treats peter better then he treats harry and feed into that and the symbiote hating him for getting the symbiote off him. Also Venom was not in the game no where long enough, Such an iconic character such a great Villain to only have him for 5 missions bit disappointing. Gameplay wise this game is much better then the original but the original story is a lot better and a lot more personal.
@Straightouttapocket10 ай бұрын
Tbh as good as the games are, Insomniac hasn’t followed the canon at all. I know some will argue it would be too hard that way, but your spider sense honestly shouldn’t be active during the fight with Venom. The symbiote should be weak to fire, but it isn’t. Most importantly, Venom should’ve been Eddie Brock. Why are we always having Harry forced on us as of late? He’s either the Goblin over Norman, or apparently now he’s Venom over Brock. I don’t get it, does anyone really like Harry? For me, in any universe, he’s almost always the most boring character in Spider-Man. Peter would never simply “walk away” from being Spider-Man. It’s not in his nature. “With great power” you know the rest. MJ from the comics was much more understanding of this. They still found the time to live their lives. In this series, she’s lowkey kind of unlikeable. Selfish, like she expects him to give everything up and forget other people’s safety just for her. I’ve seen numerous interpretations of the sinister 6, never saw Mister Negative in any of them until the Insomniac series. Now, if you’ve beaten this game, you’ll know they are introducing Silk (Cindy Moon). In the comics, she was bitten by the same spider as Peter, and is 3 years older than him. In this series, it looks like she will instead by part of Miles’s story arc, meaning she’s probably also a teenager, and probably not bitten by the same Spider as him. It’s working for them so far, the games are great. But they need to tread carefully. Their recent announcement that Miles is now the main guy has been met with a polarizing at best response. And sales numbers indicate what they’re doing isn’t smart at all. The 2018 game is the highest selling super hero game ever at 33 million. Miles Morales in 2020 only sold 6 million. A lot of people only view him as a cheap knock off of Peter, same age he was when he started, same origin story, same personality. Same powers, with the addition of some op electricity based powers that I personally think make his sections too easy. I get that they want diversity, but why not create an original and badass black character in that case? Or do a Black Panther game? Leave the already established and beloved Peter Parker Spider-Man character alone. Just my 2 cents. I’ve dragged this on long enough.

I really thought the fight with symbiote MJ was amazing. Having all of the deep-down personal feelings out during the fight really showed the realness behind maintaining a relationship with a superhero such as Peter who is constantly busy and can't maintain anything outside of the hero's occupation. MJ's words (albeit influenced by the symbiote) felt so real and were necessary for Peter to hear so that he can truly realize what impact this life has on the people around him.

From a purely mechanical standpoint, yes, its better. But from a story/narrative perspective, no way, the first game is far better.

Not to mention they made Peter into an apologetic pussy.

To be quite honest this game is excelent. It is unfortunate that it couldnt really make the same jump in scope that Arkham Asylum made to Arkham City (I mean that would meen Spider Man could go all the way to Philadelphia and that would A be silly, B the game would be 500gb). The Ultimate difficulty is awesome I feel this one was much tougher than both 1 and MM. The only grype I have with this game are the boss battles. To get back to the Arkham games the boss batles in Asylum were objectively garbage and then we proceeded to get some of the best boss battles ever in the following 3 games with Freeze, Deathstroke (in orgins obv) and Manbat being some of the biggest standouts. And in now 3 Spider man games the boss battles just feel very same-ish (apart from Sandman, but come on its an intro level), you jump around using your mobility and make an opening using the environment/web/gadgets/or parry in this last game. They especially dropped the ball on the Miles - Symbiot Peter fight. I mean even on Ultimate he gets webbed up so easily and the entire fight felt very formulaic you jump around using your mobility and webs/the bell to create openings. Bruh you have the same mobility, you should not be able to do that. I think they should have made Symbiot peter be able to A predict some of your moves B track you down while swinging. Same goes for Venom, he canonicaly does not trigger your Spider sense, there were so many cool gameplay elements they could have made out of that. I just hope that by introducing a mobile flying character like Green Goblin in 3 they can make at least one creative one.

I think they sorta did Peter dirty in this game, he was always the one who needed saving, by Harry, by MJ and by Miles. Being the older more mature character, Peter’s emotions always seem to be tempered by everyone else in the game. Yes he has the symbiote (which screws with him) but mile’s conquers his demons and conflict with Lee on his own. In my opinion Miles is as just the greater and more controlled Spider-Man. I also know Miles has more powers, but Peter just felt like Spider-Man lite. Without the symbiotes powers, Miles was just better and more powerful in every way. Just as strong, faster with his venom strikes, same spider sense, venom strike ability, immunity to scorpions poison after a while, immune to electricity. Vs Peter who was just spiderman with robot spider legs so he didn’t just seem like total trash. I love miles and I love Peter. I’m always going to be a Peter Parker fan first as he was who I grew up with in the 90s. I just wish they had some equalizing factors where Peter didn’t seem like such a puss puss and wasn’t just so much weaker than Miles

My only bad comment about it was the boss fights. they were awesome to go up against but the lizard and venom boss fight were just to hard on ultimate difficulty. I had to tone down the difficulty just to beat the lizard because he did so much damage to me in 1 second or before I even realized I was back in the fight/new phase. But other than that, this game was amazing to play and platinum and i cannot wait for SM3 to come out and see if it can do better than a game I already have as "the best spiderman game known to man" (my opinion)

My problem with the game was mostly the writing and characters. Peter was heavily nerfed so much that he can’t fight any of his villains or hunters without the need of Miles, Mj or Harry. He even got beaten by a man who has no super strength and killed like he’s nothing. And I’m sorry but Miles beating Black suit Peter is just bs. Miles I really like but had barely anything going on other than the Martin Li stuff (the side mission do have some interesting stuff like the Uncle Aaron and the Art museum sides but they’re not really relevant to the main story) other than that he’s useless. And him becoming more competent than Peter whom has 9+ years of experience and has to help Peter is just the writers want to make Miles more and more OP and making Peter look like the old pathetic virgin. Mj in this game is the equivalent of an OP Mary Sue, her being more involved with her stupid stealth missions with a taser gun and taking out a bunch of hunters that were trained by Kraven or the Symbiotes from the nest level like they’re nothing without any sort of training other than that dialogue from the hunter level is just an utter bs. You could say the gameplay is improved but I’d rather play as Peter and Miles instead of an average civilian woman without any combat training experience (again there was a bit of dialogue in the hunter stealth but it’s bs honestly, it would’ve improved the situation if they showed it to us in a flashback instead but no). And that Scream boss is the equivalent of a toxic feminist girlfriend where Peter doesn’t explain/ call her out on her narcissistic comments but instead apologises like some simp (note I’m aware that Scream was saying those but the thoughts themselves were Mj’s and just said them out loud) and possibly written by a woman who projected her toxic opinion onto the audience (aka another She Hulk nonesense). And all the progressive identity political messagings that are present in the game. Such as the pride flags and the boys side mission (I ain’t one of those audiences that like this sort of messaging and comes distracting.) The overall game is just mediocre mess, gameplay, map, graphics are amazing but the writing, story and characters are just so shitty. The first two games were much better. 6.5/10
