Forgot to mention the lack of suit powers and the reduced amount of gadgets compared to the first game. There’s a great game somewhere in there but it’s muddied by the laziness of the developers. Still fun but not as good as it could’ve been 😕
I swear I got frustrated with Peter being nerfed just to make Miles better. Plus I hated that Scream boss fight I couldn’t stand it and that’s making me pretty hesitant on playing the game again when NG+ inevitably drops.
Nah fr. I forgot to mention that scream fight in the vid too lmao. It was also pretty stupid. Peter literally just stands still and watches as the love of his life is turned in to a monster ? Wtf 😭. I’m personally not gonna be returning for new game plus unless they fix the difficulty settings in the combat. I’m sure they’ll do it in a patch tho. (I hope 😬)
I was so disappointed in the story of this game...my community tab over the last month is any indication of that of that and I didn't even expamd on HALF the points you made😭...BUT...at this point I'm just burnt on talking about it how bad it was any further So I'll say I agree with most of your points. I didn't even think about that Norman thing...yh your right it is dumb. And Norman seemed so one note in this game and had nothing else to add to the story I have NO faith at all in the narrative of the 3rd game. The set ups dont even remotely edcite me especially the Silk one...they couldn't even balance Miles and Peter's stories properly...now we got a THIRD spider person with an Origin more complicated than both Peter and Miles...and they're making her Miles' age🙄😐
Lmaoo I didn’t even remember to mention silk. The only villain set up I’m kinda looking forward to is Carnage. But if they have the same writers for Spiderman 3, idk if I’ll be looking forward to anything tbh. Either way, the Norman/Goblin set up is terrible and there’s no way around it.😭
@@BadTakeRisan yh same Carnage is the only one who peaked my interested. Especially since I'm like 80% sure they're gonna find a way to give him fire powers with the whole "Flame" angle and Venom being so unnecessarily OP theres no way Carnage can be weaker😂
while i was playing the main story i was having a great time until i started going for the platinum. i agree that the majority of side missions were repetitive and the fact that features like changing the time of day and new game plus is gone sucks ass too. the longer it's been after i played it the more i'm noticing these flaws and it's pretty disappointing
Exactly I had the same experience. The game was fun but as soon as I started going for the plat , it became a slog to get through. It feels like the main story missions and the side missions were developed by two different teams. Not a lot of effort was put in to the side content. Which is especially disappointing since the core gameplay has basically been the same since the first game. Then to top it off , there’s less gadgets, can’t change the time of day , no new game plus , can’t replay bases , no suit powers etc. Definitely a disappointing sequel.
It’s a sequel , why would we hold it to the same standard as the first game? Also, the Miles Morales game not having a lot of these features at launch is a one of the reason why it’s a dissapointing sequel . What’s the point in having sequels if they’re not going to use what they learned and build on it ?
I do agree with most what you said and I thought the writing will better than the first game and easily one of the best spider-man stories ever told. I’m extremely disappointed as a diehard spidey fan.
Yeah it’s pretty disappointing all things considered. I’m sure as a diehard it was even worse. The first game was literally the perfect Spiderman movie. How they thought this was a well written sequel, I will never understand.
22hrs in I already had the Platinum….I must say during gameplay it was really fun bit as soon as all side and main quests are done, there is literally nothing more to do but
yeahh it's surprising considering it really should be a day one feature and it's even weirder because i think spider-man miles morales released with NG+ on release, so who knows@@BadTakeRisan
Yeah it doesn’t make much sense. It kinda adds to the idea that they did the bare minimum for this one. After the success of the first two, they knew they had a winning formula and could afford to leave stuff out at launch. Pretty disappointing 😕
Although I wouldn't agree that the game is soulless (other than Cleatus Cassidy lmao gottem), I agree with a lot of your points. Especially the difficulty and the side missions. Based on the title and thumbnail, I clicked on this video thinking it was just going to be an angry rant, but I was pleasantly surprised how fair you were being and how well you put your points across. Good video!
Yeah I tried to be fair since ima actually a fan of the stuff I talk about. Obv gotta play the TH-cam game with the thumbnails but I’m not just gonna shamelessly bash on something without mentioning the positives. I’m glad you stuck around long enough to watch and enjoy! 🤙🏾 The difficulty thing is especially weird since I haven’t seen many ppl mention that. I recently played Spiderman remastered so maybe that why I felt the difference but Spiderman 2 is NOTICEABLY easier imo.
Yeah there’s a patch coming in December and I think ngl+ was confirmed to be coming. Kinda surprising that wasn’t there at launch. A new difficulty will probably be added too. I’d actually prefer them to just balance the abilities because increasing enemy health won’t really address the issue.
Idk man... Honestly I think the game is really bad. The story is so messy and short, it feels rushed. And there was so much propaganda, not only in the side missions, but in the main story too. It's a pretty bad deal for 70$ and really dissapointing continue to the story from the first game. I thought the game was going to focus on Peter and his problems, but instead we got too much of Miles. And honestly, Miles is a pretty bad character. I like him a lot in his movies, but in this game hes just really bad written. Peter on the other hand has a really weird relationship with Harry. There's no chemistry. I just don't feel the pressure. In the first game I was genuinely worried and I carred about everything that was happenig, it really felt like the end of the world. Here even with Venom taking over (which is the stupidest thing ever) you just don't feel anything. Only thing you feel is rage from all the MJ missions and you're wondering how tf a woman with a stun gun is stronger than Peter in some cases. I haven't even mentioned the fact, that Peter was so nerfed. I hate that Insomniac wants to show how strong is Miles, but when trying to do that the nerf Peter?! We know, what Miles is capable of, we know how strong he is. It's 2024, can we leave racism behind and not act like everyone thinks that black people aren't humans...
Yeah that's fair, the one thing that carries the game IMO is the gameplay and combat since it's literally copied and pasted from the superior first game(outside of the webwings). I wouldn't call this game really bad tho, it's a very lazy, derivitive sequel with some glaring issues but giving the game anything less than a 5/6 is disingenuous imo.
A lot of great points. I would also like to add how extremely disappointing Venom was to me. I was not one of those toxic fans who immediately rejected the idea of no Eddie Brock as Venom, but I do think that they were right in the end. Now that I've played the game I can say that making Harry the host for Venom was just an attempt to water down the character. They ignored everything that made Venom's characterization so terrifying and unique with his personal hatred towards Spider-Man and replaced it with some generic world domination crap or "heal the world" as they put it.
@@BadTakeRisan harry didn't even break a sweat 😂😂 meanwhile peter just gets kicked and ahot by kraven during the fight😂😂 whoever thought this is a GOTY material writing they should get some kick in the nuts award

@@thomaslawrence6353 I don't have any issue with harry being venom but they should have let it cook. Let harry struggle with venom changing his thoughts and eventually venom consumes him.
The game was definetley mid, the black suit arc was cut short and completely ruined after the peter boss fight, and the seemingly "completely in line with symbiotes destroying everything" kind of make this venom feel like a dumbed down carnage and not this awesome conflicted character that he is in the comics. I love the black suit and venom and it hasn't been done justice on screen almost ever.
@@BadTakeRisan i would’ve much preferred to see the anti-villain with some morbid humor that I’ve grown to love in the comics who has a disdain for Spider-Man because Spider-Man removed the black suit
@@mr.meatball6549 Yeah same. They included Venom but removed everything that made him a fun character. He was just a meathead who wanted to destroy the world. Non of the cheeky dialogue from the animated or comic version.
@@warsthemarvel8608 Nah fr. The only difference was that it was a worse version. At least Otto's fall in to villany was due to his own actions. This game didn't even have the balls to make harry evil, they blamed it all on the symbiote.
Google: “ESG scores are a measure of how well a company addresses risks and concerns related to environmental, social, and corporate governance issues in its day-to-day operations”. Basically a way to judge companies morally.
I said it from the moment miles was revealed to be a character in 2018, miles was going to put peter on the bench and he would be the main spiderman. And I wouldn't have that much of a problem if miles was interesting and unique but the writers are super eager to have him take the spotlight.
Yeah fr , I like the way spiderverse handled it. The original Peter was competent and when he died , Miles was trying to live up to his legacy. Even Peter B Parker made a joke about how perfect that Peter was. The game universe however is very weird. Peter was super competent and capable in the first game only to be somewhat dumbed down and weakened in the second. Ya hate to see it 😕
Yeah but the problem that we have is that miles isn’t written very well. They push Peter down to elevate miles and that just isn’t conducive to making an interesting character.
@@BadTakeRisanin what ways have they pushed down Pete in this game lol😂 and insomniac miles isn’t a bad character people just don’t like him with the fact that they think he is replacing Pete nowhere in miles statement implicates Pete is retiring even if he is the Main Spider-Man Pete will still always be present in this verse
I mostly agree with you, and I'm so frustrated. I really wanted them to make a game as good as the first one. I can be cool with most of your point, but their is 2 points I will never forgive them, the way they handled Peter to show him as weaker than Miles pissed me off. The story centered on Harry as Venom and his relationship with Peter, why they thought it was a good idea to nerf Peter in that context in beyond writing logic. I want to highlight a point, the problem is not Miles himself, it's how they treated the passing of torch, unnatural at best, forced and cringe at worst. The fact that it's not even Peter who saved the day at the end is so... And the worst part, the tease Osborn and Doc Ock to be the next villains and at the same time officially announce that Miles is now the main Spider-Man... Miles arc is pretty good, they managed to give him a good parallel story to Peter/Harry with Martin Li. My complain about him is of course that he is too strong and capable compared to Peter who was nerfed in every way possible so... not very balanced. I guess the "be greater. together" goes in fact only one why, and franckly I'm sure the next games will not improve on that. With a possible Spider-Woman with Cindy, Peter don't have a chance to shine again, if Insomniac don't change direction and writing team. I like what they did with Kraven and Harry, why only complaint is that we don't see them very often and they deserved more space. Harry is a great choice for Venom, even if like you said the story become predictable, I still like the idea and what they showed, mostly. Norman is not as clever as he is supposed to be. The fact that he ask Otto for help is unbelievably stupid. The problem with MJ is her new mode. It don't make sense that she is so OP but it's... acceptable, just from a gameplay perspective. Not from a story one, but f... it. I agree with you about the side quest they are boring a most the time I forced myself to do them, except for the old man and Howard, two short but touching moments. A general problem is that the writing of the dialogues of the game lack impact. The Miles Morales game already wasn't as good as the first one, but 2 is a big downgrade. We love Spider-Man for the Shakespearian stories and tragedies, but Spider-Man is also very funny and punchy, so give him charm.
After about a month since I bought Spider-Man 2, I can say with certainty that story kinda sucks balls. There were a lot of super awesome stuff but the venom/symbiote story felt pretty rushed and my boy Peter got nerfed so hard 😭 boss fights and gameplay were still fun. 8/10 game honestly
Fair enough , the boss fights were fun but the gameplay as a whole was kinda meh cause of how easy it was. I got the platinum so I had to suffer through the side content , most of which was terrible which is why I can’t give the game above a 7.
@@BadTakeRisanunderstandable. I couldn’t give it lower than an 8 because the web swinging is so fun that it makes boring open world things fun. However, I think the story could’ve been way better
@spoodermanreal Yeah the web swinging is awesome. Traversal as a whole is pretty much perfect. Idk if you saw the point breakdown at the end of the vid but if they fix the bugs and lack of difficulty I’d probably give it a 7.5. There’s the foundation of a great game there , it just covered by shit side content and a mid story with admittedly hype moments imo.
Forgot to mention the lack of boss fights and the fact that the one and only "human woman" boss fight that we have is quite literally the toughest one to go through even when you're in the symbiote suit. It's actually very ridiculous how hard wraith was in the game. I got beat by her like seven times.
She was definitely one of the harder villains but the game as a whole was still pretty easy. I had to stop using gadgets since they made fights WAY less challenging.
My thoughts exactly, the story felt shallow, the gameplay didn't mix too well, and the villains where poorly written. It has some nice features, I like the symbiote suit, but the game was mediocre at best and boring at worst. Insomniac has been missing quite a bit lately lol
Nah fr. The only reason the 2nd game is even any good is because they have that first game to build on. Apart from the improved traversal, almost everything in Spiderman 2 is worse than Spiderman PS4.
@@EmmanuelPrudhomme Reviewers and fans hated Pulp Fiction originally and now it’s a cult classic. Just cause something is popular doesn’t mean it’s good and we’re all entitled to our own opinions.
I hope in the next game they somehow give Peter his throne back. (I doubt it because of how woke insomniac games is). I felt like Peter was very nerfed in this game and took a back seat to miles, and it is a bad look that even with the symbiote, prefer couldn’t beat venom but miles could with no symbiote at all, it should have been miles getting beat up then Peter finishing the job, it makes more sense, also the writer self inserted herself as MJ which is very annoying because even she seems more powerful then spiderman
lol what game did you play neither Pete nor miles beat venom Miles’s still struggled as well stop using Pete being nerfed as an excuse it isn’t a valid argument at all
@@xylesama3245 Miles handled Venom better. Peter got knocked out(AGAIN) while wearing Anti Venom somehow by a REGULAR Venom. Only for Miles to square up with an EVOLVED Venom who had WINGS and Projectiles and hold him off like an equal😭
@@no.1spidey-fan182 Also if you make the argument that peter was fighting back against the influence of venom while fighting miles then that means Peter should be broken with the anti-venom suit since it have anti symbiote properties, no weaknesses to sound and all the abilities of a symbiote. Peter should have kicked venom's ass. Also they were very irresponsible. They knew the symbiotes were weak to sound, hell Miles did a whole sound sampling of it. They couldn't just inform everybody to play the sound. They could incapacitate all the symbiotes and venom and protected the civilians. Also the times Miles saves Peter really is a disservice, it should have been the opposite where Peter keeps saving Miles but it happens less as the story goes on and when Miles saves Peter it should be a sign that Peter can take it easy and Miles can take over. Also the way Peter gets jumped by symbiotes was stupid (right before getting the anti venom suit)
They had a large map, all they had to improve was the gameplay but they wasted resources focusing on things that did not enhance the experience and just made the open world needlessly large. This game is 25hrs long at best and offer no replay value but it cost $354 million which is 3 times the first game. It's dissapointing.
The budget was $300 million??? LMAOOOO. Imagine spending that much on a game that’s this buggy at launch, has horrible side content and is missing features that the FIRST game in the franchise had. Absolutely ridiculous 😭
@@BadTakeRisan incredibly absurd. Insomniac has been falling off since 2018. In every aspect from game design to writing. If you told me in 2018 that EA would make a better game than Insomniac I would think you are stupid but they did Jedi Survivor is a much better game 😭
Man I can't believe how bad they fumbled this games story. They should have found a way to get miles out of the way and focus solely on Peter and what the symbiote is doing to him. Also Harry was a bad host for venom.
I don’t think Miles was the issue per se. I do agree that Pete should’ve got more focus tho. They set up a mentor - student dynamic in the first two games so it would’ve been cool to see that. Instead we got Pete being a Vegeta in his own story. The symbiote plot line was just bad , they did venom dirty. Honestly if they just committed fully to literally ANYTHING. Venom, Kraven, Pete, Miles or Harry. The game would’ve been so much better. Looking back the main issue I think it had was a lack of focus
I’d give it a 6.5/10 or 7/10. Overall great game with great mechanics, gameplay, map, combat looks great but man the story is just a little lacklustre. It’s still good but it’s just the first two games all oover again in the first two arc and in arc three it’s Web of Shadows. And the characters just suck donkey ass. But overall great
I think it's really better to wait for the PC version The mods will make the experience more fun and fix certain problems, and I won't need to see that Tom Holland 2.0 face
I can’t wait to see modder s mod the shit out Mj’s face. I swear if they’ll end up looking more like Stephanie Tyler Jones (the face model) I’ll be questioning how a simple modder can make better faces than an expensive company with PS5 technology.
Bro, I played my FIRST playthrough on SPECTACULAR difficulty. And I did not lose ONCE in any boss fight. To be fair I grinded the side missions(Thus Upgrade Tree) befroe I finished the story but still
Yeah same , I think I might’ve died once but the point still stands. I also grinded the side missions but isn’t that the point of the game , playing side missions shouldn’t worsen the main story experience. Spiderman PS4 didn’t have this problem , it’s such an avoidable issue.
@@BadTakeRisan so the original games felt like watching a movie. You look.like Omg bad guy. We need the power of friendship! But then this sh!t comes and says we need the power of oppression on certain minorities!
Peter losing his battles is to show that being Spider-Man for 10+ years is taking a huge toll on him, and he can’t do it much longer. Also during the miles and Peter fight, Peter was fighting the symbiote as well. Also there was a giant bell. Spider-Man always explains to people who question him and mj together as they are working together since she’s a news reporter. The green goblin arc is great because even with all his money, harry is the only thing that matters to him and is all he has left, and the superhero known for not killing people, puts harry in a coma. With all his grief it makes sense. The more boring side missions have a lot of story element which are pretty good. I don’t know you are coming from with the difficult meter, this game was definitely harder then ps4’s especially the side missions
Fair enough, we’ll just have to agree to disagree about the writing tbh. However, the difficulty thing is bit wild of you to say lmao. Check Reddit , yt reviews etc. I’m not the only one that found the game easier than the previous 2. If it helps explain, I played spiderman ps4 remastered and Miles Morales about 2 months before the sequel came out so it was fresh it my mind.
@@BadTakeRisan I don’t know I also replayed them super freshly before the release, and it still felt harder during the story at least. Maybe we had different upgrades but I thought it was perfect
I platinumed the game so maybe I might’ve been a higher level than you? Even if that’s what it is , playing side content shouldn’t break the main quests difficulty wise lmao. That’s just bad game design.
Exactly. As you said “it’s about if you’re going for speed”. That’s what you’re not getting , people aren’t gonna purposefully play the game in a worse way if there’s a better one. Don’t get me wrong , I like playing it the stylish way too. I 100% the game so I had to have some fun with it. That being said , the gadgets broke the difficulty. The web grabber especially. Completing side missions and levelling up shouldn’t make the game too easy for your player base. That’s literally punishing players for fully diving in to your game.
I may be the first one to say this but marvels Spider-Man 2 has really died out since release man. Feels like this game went 2 steps back compared to the first game. Swinging/ combat wise they taken stuffs out which angered me and also they didn’t go beyond in that aspect. The game has been out for 7 MONTHS….. and still no dlc and ppl wonder why the game is dying. I got bored of this game cuz it didn’t have that replay value like it did the first gam. Also another reason why this game is dead is cuz the symbiote plays the exact same way as the other regular suits (apart from surge) but outside of that it’s the same combat/ dodge/ swing animations and the finishers… you can’t even morph into the symbiote in the game🤦🏾♂️ it don’t feel different when wearing it cuz it doesn’t play different. Insomniac really let me down
I don’t think your the first one to say this but I agree regardless. Spiderman 2 was an underwhelming sequels and very derivative. A lot of features felt the same like you said about the symbiote suit.
I can understand enjoying the game more than I did but calling it an innovative game is just disingenuous. It's one of the most derivative single-player sequels in recent memory. It has fewer features than the last 2 games. Lack of suit powers, fewer gadgets, can't replay missions etc.
Couldn't disagree more! The Insomniac Spider-Man trilogy (Duology and spin-off?) and the Batman Arkham Trilogy (With Origins) are some of the most phenomenal superhero trilogies I have ever played! Probably video games in general trilogies of all time!
Finally a real take on this game. I feel like all the reviewers were paid off by Sony. This game is a shameless cash grab and woke propaganda! Nice vid tho 😂
Lmao damn that’s a little harsh bru 😭. Thanks for leaving the comment and enjoying the vid. While I don’t share that harsh of an option , there were definitely elements of what you said in the game for sure.👌🏾
@@BadTakeRisan OG comment, i agree with the gadgets and stuff but they HAD to do that, it simply doesn’t work with the games flow, the wheel made you have to slow down and thats not what these games are. They definitely could have handled it better, but they did a good enough job at keeping the flow right.
Lmaoo I appreciate it man. I can see how the title might make someone who liked the game wanna dislike the vid 😭. What point changed your mind and what rating would you give the game?
That’s fair , if they fix the performance issues in a patch(which I heard is coming in December) I’d definitely give it a 7. Do you think it’s better or worse than the previous games? I think it’s worse than Spiderman 1 but better than Miles Morales.
When this video first released , a lot of people disagreed with me. But as time passed, ppl have started to dislike the story more and more. Shits crazy 🤣
Wrong! Insomniac never dissapoints, the team put their heart and soul and they outdid themselves. Its also better then the first 2 games. Its a huge improvement from its predecessors too. The boss fights are amazing and better then the first 2 games, its more challenging. The story is amazing too. Kraven is amazing and it's hands down the best iteration of Kraven. He was menacing and threatening then ever. Same thing can be said for Venom. He is stronger and bigger then the previous iterations. Plus I love Tony Todd's voice. Kraven and Venom from Insomniac are amazing and better then Sony spin off movie versions. Insomniac never disappoints. Insomniac's Spider Man is hands down the best iteration of Spider Man across all media and its my favorite too. Yuri Lowenthal is the best Spider Man After playing Marvel's Spider Man 2 and how amazing it is, I can't wait for Insomniac's Wolverine game Marvel's Spider Man 2 (9.5/10) Marvel's Spider Man (9/10) Marvel's Spider Man Miles Morales (8/10)

@@BadTakeRisan well once you know the story, its way deeper than “they nerfed peter, miles carries, and its soulles” because theres so much emotion in this story.
@@BadTakeRisan well how is it soulless when theres an entire storyline full of stuff, if you couldn’t figure that out you likely didnt pay attention as much (but i bet you still payed more attention to it than synthetic man)
I thought you were trolling so I didn’t take your comments seriously till now lol. But I’ll actually reply since you seem to be serious. I called the game soulless due to its lack of innovation and terrible side content. I don’t know if you watched the whole vid but I praised certain aspects of the story like Kraven and Martin Li. If you just reply with more “you didn’t get it comments” then imma just assume you didn’t watch the vid bro 🤣.
I disagree with the the difficulty of the game being easier. I remembered mastering the combat and all the timings of the first game within hours of the game and had no trouble with the highest difficulty in NG+ but with spiderman 2, idk if its the enemy density or the new added parry system but it definitely felt harder to master than the first game, especially bosses, maybe it's the fact that they have health bars now that im much more conscious of how much further i have to beat to beat them, but that could just be me
disagree with the gadgets being too powerful. If you wanna talk about powerful gadgets, Spiderman 1 was literally broken. You say you can end fights with just gadgets in Spiderman 2 but there's double the gadgets in Spiderman 1, with some suit powers literally being able to end the fight with one button. Spiderman 1 had the suspension matrix where enemies would float in the air, pair that up with the web grenade you cant say that ain't broken💀 All the gadgets in Spiderman 2 are all defensive and just setups for you next attack. The abilities were maybe on the powerful side but that's only the venom abilities. peters spider arms are super weak in comparison and in the game where you don't have it for a few missions, you can definitely feel weaker, but not game breaking imo but even then they have a cool down that even with all the upgrades, don't fill up fast enough to be overly easy. I like your video though! you did make some great points and actually had reasonable criticism i agree with, they did my boy peter bad this game @@BadTakeRisan
@TheHippyDuck That’s a fair point you make about the gadgets in the first game tbh. One thing I would say is that I was going for the plat so I did all the side missions while I went through the story and upgraded. So maybe that why they felt so powerful in my run. I still think they shouldn’t be as effective as they are cause remember, I played on the HIGHEST difficulty. When I say the gadgets and abilities are overpowered, I mean in regards to their effectiveness on spectacular. My bad for not clearing that up. 🤙🏾

Then to top it off , there’s less gadgets, can’t change the time of day , no new game plus , can’t replay bases , no suit powers etc. Definitely a disappointing sequel.
the thing is those aren’t launch features for MSM1 or MSM:MM either so can’t really be mad about them not being launch in MSM2
It’s a sequel , why would we hold it to the same standard as the first game?
Also, the Miles Morales game not having a lot of these features at launch is a one of the reason why it’s a dissapointing sequel .
What’s the point in having sequels if they’re not going to use what they learned and build on it ?
@@keysystemboth of those features were in miles morales from launch
🎯🎯
I do agree with most what you said and I thought the writing will better than the first game and easily one of the best spider-man stories ever told. I’m extremely disappointed as a diehard spidey fan.
Yeah it’s pretty disappointing all things considered. I’m sure as a diehard it was even worse. The first game was literally the perfect Spiderman movie.
How they thought this was a well written sequel, I will never understand.
22hrs in I already had the Platinum….I must say during gameplay it was really fun bit as soon as all side and main quests are done, there is literally nothing more to do but
Yeah the lack of new game plus and repeatable bases is wild. They were literally in both of the other games.
to be fair for the first spider-man game NG+ wasn't added until six weeks later, although i think not having repeatable bases is weird@@BadTakeRisan
Oh damn fr? I didn’t know that.
yeahh it's surprising considering it really should be a day one feature and it's even weirder because i think spider-man miles morales released with NG+ on release, so who knows@@BadTakeRisan
Yeah it doesn’t make much sense. It kinda adds to the idea that they did the bare minimum for this one. After the success of the first two, they knew they had a winning formula and could afford to leave stuff out at launch. Pretty disappointing 😕
Although I wouldn't agree that the game is soulless (other than Cleatus Cassidy lmao gottem), I agree with a lot of your points. Especially the difficulty and the side missions. Based on the title and thumbnail, I clicked on this video thinking it was just going to be an angry rant, but I was pleasantly surprised how fair you were being and how well you put your points across. Good video!
Yeah I tried to be fair since ima actually a fan of the stuff I talk about. Obv gotta play the TH-cam game with the thumbnails but I’m not just gonna shamelessly bash on something without mentioning the positives. I’m glad you stuck around long enough to watch and enjoy! 🤙🏾
The difficulty thing is especially weird since I haven’t seen many ppl mention that. I recently played Spiderman remastered so maybe that why I felt the difference but Spiderman 2 is NOTICEABLY easier imo.
I really hope they add in a higher difficulty for NG+ when that comes out cus that'll be more balanced and fun I reckon
Yeah there’s a patch coming in December and I think ngl+ was confirmed to be coming. Kinda surprising that wasn’t there at launch. A new difficulty will probably be added too.
I’d actually prefer them to just balance the abilities because increasing enemy health won’t really address the issue.
Idk man... Honestly I think the game is really bad. The story is so messy and short, it feels rushed. And there was so much propaganda, not only in the side missions, but in the main story too. It's a pretty bad deal for 70$ and really dissapointing continue to the story from the first game. I thought the game was going to focus on Peter and his problems, but instead we got too much of Miles. And honestly, Miles is a pretty bad character. I like him a lot in his movies, but in this game hes just really bad written. Peter on the other hand has a really weird relationship with Harry. There's no chemistry. I just don't feel the pressure. In the first game I was genuinely worried and I carred about everything that was happenig, it really felt like the end of the world. Here even with Venom taking over (which is the stupidest thing ever) you just don't feel anything. Only thing you feel is rage from all the MJ missions and you're wondering how tf a woman with a stun gun is stronger than Peter in some cases. I haven't even mentioned the fact, that Peter was so nerfed. I hate that Insomniac wants to show how strong is Miles, but when trying to do that the nerf Peter?! We know, what Miles is capable of, we know how strong he is. It's 2024, can we leave racism behind and not act like everyone thinks that black people aren't humans...
Yeah that's fair, the one thing that carries the game IMO is the gameplay and combat since it's literally copied and pasted from the superior first game(outside of the webwings). I wouldn't call this game really bad tho, it's a very lazy, derivitive sequel with some glaring issues but giving the game anything less than a 5/6 is disingenuous imo.
A lot of great points. I would also like to add how extremely disappointing Venom was to me. I was not one of those toxic fans who immediately rejected the idea of no Eddie Brock as Venom, but I do think that they were right in the end. Now that I've played the game I can say that making Harry the host for Venom was just an attempt to water down the character. They ignored everything that made Venom's characterization so terrifying and unique with his personal hatred towards Spider-Man and replaced it with some generic world domination crap or "heal the world" as they put it.
That doesn't mean those shitheads were right

@@thomaslawrence6353 I don't have any issue with harry being venom but they should have let it cook. Let harry struggle with venom changing his thoughts and eventually venom consumes him.
The game was definetley mid, the black suit arc was cut short and completely ruined after the peter boss fight, and the seemingly "completely in line with symbiotes destroying everything" kind of make this venom feel like a dumbed down carnage and not this awesome conflicted character that he is in the comics.
I love the black suit and venom and it hasn't been done justice on screen almost ever.
True, Venom definitely felt more like Carnage. The “Heal The World” shit was so corny.
@@BadTakeRisan i would’ve much preferred to see the anti-villain with some morbid humor that I’ve grown to love in the comics who has a disdain for Spider-Man because Spider-Man removed the black suit

@@mr.meatball6549 Yeah same. They included Venom but removed everything that made him a fun character. He was just a meathead who wanted to destroy the world. Non of the cheeky dialogue from the animated or comic version.
@@warsthemarvel8608 Nah fr. The only difference was that it was a worse version. At least Otto's fall in to villany was due to his own actions. This game didn't even have the balls to make harry evil, they blamed it all on the symbiote.
Instead of hiring competent writers they hired Sweet Baby Inc to increase their ESG score 😂
I had no idea what you were talking about until I googled it and WOW. This explains a lot. 🤣🤣
Can someone please explain what is “ESG”?
Also Sweet Baby inc was easily one of the worst decisions ever made, but hey it’s 2024 what can you do now?
Google: “ESG scores are a measure of how well a company addresses risks and concerns related to environmental, social, and corporate governance issues in its day-to-day operations”. Basically a way to judge companies morally.
I said it from the moment miles was revealed to be a character in 2018, miles was going to put peter on the bench and he would be the main spiderman. And I wouldn't have that much of a problem if miles was interesting and unique but the writers are super eager to have him take the spotlight.
Yeah fr , I like the way spiderverse handled it. The original Peter was competent and when he died , Miles was trying to live up to his legacy. Even Peter B Parker made a joke about how perfect that Peter was.
The game universe however is very weird. Peter was super competent and capable in the first game only to be somewhat dumbed down and weakened in the second. Ya hate to see it 😕
I guess? didn't peter step down because he was tired of being spiderman and couldn't focus on his own life, so miles told him he's got it.
Yeah but the problem that we have is that miles isn’t written very well. They push Peter down to elevate miles and that just isn’t conducive to making an interesting character.
@@BadTakeRisanin what ways have they pushed down Pete in this game lol😂 and insomniac miles isn’t a bad character people just don’t like him with the fact that they think he is replacing Pete nowhere in miles statement implicates Pete is retiring even if he is the Main Spider-Man Pete will still always be present in this verse
@xylesama3245 Pete was killed by Kraven in 20 seconds , Harry beat tf out of him directly after
I mostly agree with you, and I'm so frustrated. I really wanted them to make a game as good as the first one. I can be cool with most of your point, but their is 2 points I will never forgive them, the way they handled Peter to show him as weaker than Miles pissed me off. The story centered on Harry as Venom and his relationship with Peter, why they thought it was a good idea to nerf Peter in that context in beyond writing logic. I want to highlight a point, the problem is not Miles himself, it's how they treated the passing of torch, unnatural at best, forced and cringe at worst. The fact that it's not even Peter who saved the day at the end is so... And the worst part, the tease Osborn and Doc Ock to be the next villains and at the same time officially announce that Miles is now the main Spider-Man...
Miles arc is pretty good, they managed to give him a good parallel story to Peter/Harry with Martin Li. My complain about him is of course that he is too strong and capable compared to Peter who was nerfed in every way possible so... not very balanced. I guess the "be greater. together" goes in fact only one why, and franckly I'm sure the next games will not improve on that. With a possible Spider-Woman with Cindy, Peter don't have a chance to shine again, if Insomniac don't change direction and writing team.
I like what they did with Kraven and Harry, why only complaint is that we don't see them very often and they deserved more space. Harry is a great choice for Venom, even if like you said the story become predictable, I still like the idea and what they showed, mostly.
Norman is not as clever as he is supposed to be. The fact that he ask Otto for help is unbelievably stupid.
The problem with MJ is her new mode. It don't make sense that she is so OP but it's... acceptable, just from a gameplay perspective. Not from a story one, but f... it.
I agree with you about the side quest they are boring a most the time I forced myself to do them, except for the old man and Howard, two short but touching moments.
A general problem is that the writing of the dialogues of the game lack impact. The Miles Morales game already wasn't as good as the first one, but 2 is a big downgrade. We love Spider-Man for the Shakespearian stories and tragedies, but Spider-Man is also very funny and punchy, so give him charm.
Yeah I pretty much agree with most of what you said. It’s a shame that none of these spiderman games are as good as the first one
After about a month since I bought Spider-Man 2, I can say with certainty that story kinda sucks balls. There were a lot of super awesome stuff but the venom/symbiote story felt pretty rushed and my boy Peter got nerfed so hard 😭 boss fights and gameplay were still fun. 8/10 game honestly
Fair enough , the boss fights were fun but the gameplay as a whole was kinda meh cause of how easy it was. I got the platinum so I had to suffer through the side content , most of which was terrible which is why I can’t give the game above a 7.
@@BadTakeRisanunderstandable. I couldn’t give it lower than an 8 because the web swinging is so fun that it makes boring open world things fun. However, I think the story could’ve been way better
@spoodermanreal Yeah the web swinging is awesome. Traversal as a whole is pretty much perfect. Idk if you saw the point breakdown at the end of the vid but if they fix the bugs and lack of difficulty I’d probably give it a 7.5.
There’s the foundation of a great game there , it just covered by shit side content and a mid story with admittedly hype moments imo.
Forgot to mention the lack of boss fights and the fact that the one and only "human woman" boss fight that we have is quite literally the toughest one to go through even when you're in the symbiote suit.
It's actually very ridiculous how hard wraith was in the game. I got beat by her like seven times.
She was definitely one of the harder villains but the game as a whole was still pretty easy. I had to stop using gadgets since they made fights WAY less challenging.
@@BadTakeRisan true enough.
My thoughts exactly, the story felt shallow, the gameplay didn't mix too well, and the villains where poorly written. It has some nice features, I like the symbiote suit, but the game was mediocre at best and boring at worst. Insomniac has been missing quite a bit lately lol
Nah fr. The only reason the 2nd game is even any good is because they have that first game to build on. Apart from the improved traversal, almost everything in Spiderman 2 is worse than Spiderman PS4.

I hope in the next game they somehow give Peter his throne back. (I doubt it because of how woke insomniac games is). I felt like Peter was very nerfed in this game and took a back seat to miles, and it is a bad look that even with the symbiote, prefer couldn’t beat venom but miles could with no symbiote at all, it should have been miles getting beat up then Peter finishing the job, it makes more sense, also the writer self inserted herself as MJ which is very annoying because even she seems more powerful then spiderman
lol what game did you play neither Pete nor miles beat venom Miles’s still struggled as well stop using Pete being nerfed as an excuse it isn’t a valid argument at all
Mj and her super taser makes no sense at ALL 😭
@@xylesama3245 Miles handled Venom better. Peter got knocked out(AGAIN) while wearing Anti Venom somehow by a REGULAR Venom. Only for Miles to square up with an EVOLVED Venom who had WINGS and Projectiles and hold him off like an equal😭
@@no.1spidey-fan182 🎯🎯🎯🎯
@@no.1spidey-fan182 Also if you make the argument that peter was fighting back against the influence of venom while fighting miles then that means Peter should be broken with the anti-venom suit since it have anti symbiote properties, no weaknesses to sound and all the abilities of a symbiote.
Peter should have kicked venom's ass.
Also they were very irresponsible. They knew the symbiotes were weak to sound, hell Miles did a whole sound sampling of it. They couldn't just inform everybody to play the sound. They could incapacitate all the symbiotes and venom and protected the civilians.
Also the times Miles saves Peter really is a disservice, it should have been the opposite where Peter keeps saving Miles but it happens less as the story goes on and when Miles saves Peter it should be a sign that Peter can take it easy and Miles can take over.
Also the way Peter gets jumped by symbiotes was stupid (right before getting the anti venom suit)
They had a large map, all they had to improve was the gameplay but they wasted resources focusing on things that did not enhance the experience and just made the open world needlessly large. This game is 25hrs long at best and offer no replay value but it cost $354 million which is 3 times the first game. It's dissapointing.
The budget was $300 million??? LMAOOOO. Imagine spending that much on a game that’s this buggy at launch, has horrible side content and is missing features that the FIRST game in the franchise had.
Absolutely ridiculous 😭
@@BadTakeRisan incredibly absurd. Insomniac has been falling off since 2018. In every aspect from game design to writing.
If you told me in 2018 that EA would make a better game than Insomniac I would think you are stupid but they did Jedi Survivor is a much better game 😭
Greed corrupts all unfortunately 🥲
Man I can't believe how bad they fumbled this games story. They should have found a way to get miles out of the way and focus solely on Peter and what the symbiote is doing to him. Also Harry was a bad host for venom.
I don’t think Miles was the issue per se. I do agree that Pete should’ve got more focus tho. They set up a mentor - student dynamic in the first two games so it would’ve been cool to see that.
Instead we got Pete being a Vegeta in his own story. The symbiote plot line was just bad , they did venom dirty.
Honestly if they just committed fully to literally ANYTHING. Venom, Kraven, Pete, Miles or Harry. The game would’ve been so much better. Looking back the main issue I think it had was a lack of focus
Facts bro you’re not the only one who has a love and hate relationship with this game
Nah fr 😭. What would you give the game outta 10?
I would say like a 7.6 or an 8 it’s good but didn’t really live up to my expectations
That’s fair. 7.6 is a lil specific tho lmao. I would also give it a 7.5 once they add the patch that fixes the bugs, adds replays or missions etc.
@@BadTakeRisan once that happens then it can just be an 8 for me
I’d give it a 6.5/10 or 7/10. Overall great game with great mechanics, gameplay, map, combat looks great but man the story is just a little lacklustre. It’s still good but it’s just the first two games all oover again in the first two arc and in arc three it’s Web of Shadows. And the characters just suck donkey ass.
But overall great
I think it's really better to wait for the PC version
The mods will make the experience more fun and fix certain problems, and I won't need to see that Tom Holland 2.0 face
Lmao the Tom Holland face is so weird. He looks younger than Miles even though he’s meant to be like 10 years older than him
I can’t wait to see modder s mod the shit out Mj’s face. I swear if they’ll end up looking more like Stephanie Tyler Jones (the face model) I’ll be questioning how a simple modder can make better faces than an expensive company with PS5 technology.
Lmao I wouldn’t be surprised if they fix it. Kinda like how deep fakers fixed the cgi faces in the Star Wars Disney shows.

And I did not lose ONCE in any boss fight.

Peter losing his battles is to show that being Spider-Man for 10+ years is taking a huge toll on him, and he can’t do it much longer. Also during the miles and Peter fight, Peter was fighting the symbiote as well. Also there was a giant bell. Spider-Man always explains to people who question him and mj together as they are working together since she’s a news reporter. The green goblin arc is great because even with all his money, harry is the only thing that matters to him and is all he has left, and the superhero known for not killing people, puts harry in a coma. With all his grief it makes sense. The more boring side missions have a lot of story element which are pretty good. I don’t know you are coming from with the difficult meter, this game was definitely harder then ps4’s especially the side missions
Fair enough, we’ll just have to agree to disagree about the writing tbh.
However, the difficulty thing is bit wild of you to say lmao. Check Reddit , yt reviews etc. I’m not the only one that found the game easier than the previous 2.
If it helps explain, I played spiderman ps4 remastered and Miles Morales about 2 months before the sequel came out so it was fresh it my mind.

Exactly. As you said “it’s about if you’re going for speed”. That’s what you’re not getting , people aren’t gonna purposefully play the game in a worse way if there’s a better one.
Don’t get me wrong , I like playing it the stylish way too. I 100% the game so I had to have some fun with it. That being said , the gadgets broke the difficulty. The web grabber especially.
Completing side missions and levelling up shouldn’t make the game too easy for your player base. That’s literally punishing players for fully diving in to your game.
I may be the first one to say this but marvels Spider-Man 2 has really died out since release man. Feels like this game went 2 steps back compared to the first game. Swinging/ combat wise they taken stuffs out which angered me and also they didn’t go beyond in that aspect. The game has been out for 7 MONTHS….. and still no dlc and ppl wonder why the game is dying. I got bored of this game cuz it didn’t have that replay value like it did the first gam. Also another reason why this game is dead is cuz the symbiote plays the exact same way as the other regular suits (apart from surge) but outside of that it’s the same combat/ dodge/ swing animations and the finishers… you can’t even morph into the symbiote in the game🤦🏾♂️ it don’t feel different when wearing it cuz it doesn’t play different. Insomniac really let me down
I don’t think your the first one to say this but I agree regardless. Spiderman 2 was an underwhelming sequels and very derivative. A lot of features felt the same like you said about the symbiote suit.
theres flaws , yes , but i still believe this is quite an innovative game , not as much as spiderman 1 but still , pretty great play
I can understand enjoying the game more than I did but calling it an innovative game is just disingenuous. It's one of the most derivative single-player sequels in recent memory. It has fewer features than the last 2 games. Lack of suit powers, fewer gadgets, can't replay missions etc.
Almost, is a ballslless game...
I wished for the vegeta treatment they didn’t decide for the final fight🤦♂️
Couldn't disagree more! The Insomniac Spider-Man trilogy (Duology and spin-off?) and the Batman Arkham Trilogy (With Origins) are some of the most phenomenal superhero trilogies I have ever played! Probably video games in general trilogies of all time!

Wrong! Insomniac never dissapoints, the team put their heart and soul and they outdid themselves.
Its also better then the first 2 games. Its a huge improvement from its predecessors too. The boss fights are amazing and better then the first 2 games, its more challenging. The story is amazing too. Kraven is amazing and it's hands down the best iteration of Kraven. He was menacing and threatening then ever. Same thing can be said for Venom. He is stronger and bigger then the previous iterations. Plus I love Tony Todd's voice. Kraven and Venom from Insomniac are amazing and better then Sony spin off movie versions. Insomniac never disappoints.
Insomniac's Spider Man is hands down the best iteration of Spider Man across all media and its my favorite too. Yuri Lowenthal is the best Spider Man

If you just reply with more “you didn’t get it comments” then imma just assume you didn’t watch the vid bro 🤣.
I disagree with the the difficulty of the game being easier. I remembered mastering the combat and all the timings of the first game within hours of the game and had no trouble with the highest difficulty in NG+ but with spiderman 2, idk if its the enemy density or the new added parry system but it definitely felt harder to master than the first game, especially bosses, maybe it's the fact that they have health bars now that im much more conscious of how much further i have to beat to beat them, but that could just be me
Fair enough. The abilities and gadgets were just too powerful , the game wasn’t that difficult imo.
disagree with the gadgets being too powerful. If you wanna talk about powerful gadgets, Spiderman 1 was literally broken. You say you can end fights with just gadgets in Spiderman 2 but there's double the gadgets in Spiderman 1, with some suit powers literally being able to end the fight with one button. Spiderman 1 had the suspension matrix where enemies would float in the air, pair that up with the web grenade you cant say that ain't broken💀 All the gadgets in Spiderman 2 are all defensive and just setups for you next attack. The abilities were maybe on the powerful side but that's only the venom abilities. peters spider arms are super weak in comparison and in the game where you don't have it for a few missions, you can definitely feel weaker, but not game breaking imo but even then they have a cool down that even with all the upgrades, don't fill up fast enough to be overly easy. I like your video though! you did make some great points and actually had reasonable criticism i agree with, they did my boy peter bad this game @@BadTakeRisan
@TheHippyDuck That’s a fair point you make about the gadgets in the first game tbh. One thing I would say is that I was going for the plat so I did all the side missions while I went through the story and upgraded. So maybe that why they felt so powerful in my run.
I still think they shouldn’t be as effective as they are cause remember, I played on the HIGHEST difficulty. When I say the gadgets and abilities are overpowered, I mean in regards to their effectiveness on spectacular.

Thanks man , I tried to be fair to the game even tho I had problems with it. I’d probably get more views if I just ranted about it 😭 but that’s not the type of content I wanna put out.
I haven’t had too many salty fans in the comments lmao. The vid has been recieved fairly well which was a surprise 🤣.
Thanks for watching and the kind words 🤙🏾
