Now that some time has passed, what's the verdict on insomniac spider-man?

>>149314282 (OP)
1st game is pretty good. 2nd is complete shit because have 2 spider-men is dumb unless its like shattered dimensions or EOT

>>149314282 (OP)
Very overrated. Barely a decent game.

>>149314282 (OP)
Still no idea how they made MJ look even worse in the sequel?

>>149314403
In general the non-suited characters look off. A bit too uncanny.

>>149314282 (OP)
It’s not without faults but I still very much enjoy it and arguably more than movies

>>149314282 (OP)
Game 1 was baller
Game 2 isn't real

>>149314282 (OP)
I like the choice of choosing a Peter 8 years into his run as Spider-Man, and actually allowing him to deal with his issues like Aunt May passing away.

>>149314282 (OP)
The 1st game is genuinely a great game. I out it up there with Web of Shadows and Ultimate Spider-Man as amazing Spider-Man experiences. Like the other Spider-Man games it has problems and some boring missions but overall its a good time. The sequals ar just the same shit with less emphasis on web swining so its not really my thing. The wind suit just wasn't it for me and the stories just got worse and worse. Spider-Man 2 (NU) is really badly written. Spin was also introduced way to early.

The Miles one did inform me he'd be better if he took after his uncle more than Peter.

Stinks both as a Spider-Man story and as an action game. Total Insomniac MJ death.

It baffles me how much this version takes more from TASM and the two awful Disney XD shows than the cómics.

It is actually crazy looking at all the miles suits because it really highlights how little history he has to draw on. I also really hate they cell shaded his suit design from Spiderverse because I think it would look good in the more realistic style.

>>149314282 (OP)
Made me hate Mr. Negative.
>Hogs the whole second act with wanting to unleash his death-coff
>Third act has the Sinister Six, but Negative is still somehow the final boss (Doc Ock doesn't count; he's an interactive cutscene)

>>149314282 (OP)
I really really hate their version of MJ. It's hard to even compliment PS4-Man without thinking about what a total bitch she is.

>>149314282 (OP)

I really hate all the normie shit you had to do in 2.

>>149314282 (OP)
First one is a genuinely great experience, reignited my love of the character after ten years of OMDs, Sony-verse, and Slotts. The second one shit the bed in the most baffling ways. It’s like Insomniac took all the criticism of the first game, handed it to a bunch of gender-and-race-studies majors, and went “okay make our game with this”. Normally any hate something gets about being “woke” just makes me roll my eyes but the second game was genuinely ruined by “woke”. Allegedly 95% of Tony Todd Venom was cut but we got twenty Mary Jane missions and even a level where you have to play as Miles’ deaf girlfriend. What. The fuck.

2 had bad writing (Nic probably got drowned out by the DEI writers), but the gameplay was genuinely great.

>>149314282 (OP)
its trash with boring combat and traversal
shit story for the most part
only good thing is high fidelity graphics

Haha, how crazy would that be?

Pre-ordered 1, played it to death at least twice over, platinum'd it (even for the naff, ocassionally bullshit DLC episodes).
Played Miles Morales through once.
Didn't bother getting 2 at launch and after everything I've seen and read about it in the year and a half since, I'm so very glad I didn't waste my money.

Which was better?

>>149314282 (OP)
First game was amazing story. I still can't decided if Otto cared for Peter or was it all just an act

>>149316512
Otto cared, but his hatred for Norman clouded his judgment more and more, and all bets were off once he hooked up to his arms.
