First Spider-Man game was great, second game was a downgrade, can they stick the landing and have a satisfying 3rd installment/finale in terms of story and gameplay? Also what are your thoughts on Wolverine? Should they do a Hulk, Daredevil, or Thor game next?
I’m looking forward to Wolverine but it would suck if insomniac is only doing marvel games and the occasional ratchet and clank. They’re still talented but they need to hire better writers.

>>154880541They appear to be backpedaling that shit, and the industry itself is showing signs of swinging the pendulum back (at least in some areas). Like they changed Jean Grey's character model in Wolverine. But yeah Spider-Man 2 annoyed the fuck out of me with the school missions
>>154879816I wish their storytelling and costume design was better
>>154880738First Spider-Man game was a solid story. 2 suffered from a dual narrative that couldn't devote time properly to either character. Also EVERYONE swaps to the classic outfit for Spidey
>>154880826I meant the dialogue and you can't change the costumes of the NPCs without modding
>>154879816>Should they do a Hulk, Daredevil, or Thor game next?Not likely based on their leaked release schedule of 3 years ago>Everything here most likely got pushed back by 1 year due leaks, layoffs, and overall restructuring>They're hopping off the Spidey train and going straight into the X-Men one to coincide with the MCU's Mutant Era>There's a new IP in between X-Men 1 and X-Men 3 which makes me to believe we could get a Jean Grey solo game similar to GOW Laufey
>>154881587I don't think that plan is relevant anymore given their hack. Besides, no one wants a live service multiplayer Spider-verse game.They should still try to make that Venom game though
>>154881587where is x-men 2
>>154879816>[Insomniac] confirmed that Morales would be considered the main Spider-Man in further entries of the franchise.That should answer your question
BND money is going to put Miles to bed forever. They can say all they want how they plan to introduce him to the movies but it ain't happening
>>154883139Miles would never work in the MCU anyway because they already gave all of his shit to Tom Holland's Peter. >Younger maternal figure>Ganke>storyline where he struggles to live up to the legacy of his dead mentor figureEveryone is too afraid to differentiate Miles from Peter, because people would complain if you had a young black character who WASN'T a science genius, so it ends up just being two Spider-Men with the exact same personality fighting the exact same rogues gallery in the exact same city, but one of them is slightly younger, can turn invisible and shoot electricity, and speaks Spanish.Legit just the Spider-Verse movies understood that you need to give Miles a drastically different homelife and social situation than Peter and tweak his personality and interests to set him apart, especially if he's going to be sharing any screentime with Peter Parker. If you don't do that (or kill Peter outright, or put Miles in a different city), then the most Miles can ever aspire to be is the Player 2 pallette-swap character your little brother has to pick.
>>154879816>despite Yuri giving a great performance, Peter is still written as a heckin awkward millennial quirk chungus>Spider-Man is no longer allowed to say nice things about the police or berate criminals for committing crime, because fags on Twitter complained about Spider-Cop>MJ is maybe the worst the character has ever been interpreted, has being re-imagined as a shrill and resentful Lois Lane knockoff (because being a model or actress is for whores, not empowered and intelligent young women)>Immediately introduced Miles (and now Silk), so at least 2/3rds of the third entry won't even have you playing as Peter>His entire rogues gallery minus Doc Ock and Screwball got killed by Kraven the Hunter>Swinging and combat is literally perfect, but is constantly interrupted by mandatory missions that are either 30min playable cutscenes where you have to hold forward and press X to make Peter interact with an object and go "huh, it's an object", an extended MJ stealth segment (which you are not allowed to skip), or Miles helping the Burger King Kids Club come up with inclusive slogans for the upcoming Pride ParadeWould be neat if they made a Thor game where Thor uses his Asgardian Sense to investigate a crime scene before putting on his Anti-Loki armor to fight Loki for the first time in his 3000 year career and end with a QTE where the player has to hit R2 to forgive (because systemic intolerance is the greatest supervillain of them all)
The first game might arguably have been THE best adaptation of Spider-Man in ANY media if it weren't for the Miles segments which clearly were jammed in there for wokoid points and stuck out like a sore thumb completely detracting from the narrative, and with Spider-Man 2 the damage is irrevocable, they cannot salvage it. Better luck next time honestly, Spidey does really well with video games so hopefully in another 10 years he'll get another shot.
>No Miles, give him a sequel to his own game>Reduced MJ missions (because we know how they'd respond if we asked for them to be removed altogether)>Bring back gadgets>More variety in crimes>Flesh out the story more and don't rush through it>3 or 4 side missions where you investigate a Fisk operation with DaredevilLastly, lean into Green Goblin being a legit psycho and keep the tech-y look of his costume to a minimum.
>>154883957*oh, and either bring back Bubinak's face or get a new guy who doesn't look 15
>>154880686The previews for Wolverine shows they’re at least somewhat aware of the reputation they hold. We’ll need to see the full game to determine if they dropped the hyper woke shit.
I fucking hate the White Spider suit. Goddamn is it ugly. There were better alt costumes in the game.
>>154884103It's really telling that not only do they start you out in the classic suit, but you can craft and re-equip it almost immediately after you unlock alts
