I've had Spider-Man Miles Morales on my backlog for a good while as I intended to make a start on the game after completing Spider-Man 2018, which I did before getting distracted with other things in life. Finally, I got around to playing it and it was a lot of fun.

The webswinging here is so fun and addictive and feels even better than that of the first game. The community of Harlem and the people within that community are also probably one of the strongest points of Miles Morales, the cast of characters are great and even those that aren't as developed are still done extremely well and adds to the community feeling that I feel the first game was lacking (Bare in mind my memory of the first game will be a little hazy as it has been a couple of years since I played it). This game is also extremely representative of many different communities which again was another highlight.

My only downside to this game is that the plot is slightly predictable when it comes to certain reveals and Krieger isn't the most interesting villain but I thought that The Tinkerer and how that character played into the story was done very well and gave an emotional weight that balances out the lack of dimensions for Krieger beyond being an exploitative villain. Overall, this is a really good expansion off the original game yet still manages to feel unique and find ways to improve on its predecessor. Hoping to see more Miles content in the future whether that be another standalone game after Spider-Man 2 or something else.
