There some pretty impressive set pieces but overall a bigger but not better type of sequel with a lot of the same style of missions/side missions and honestly I am very bored of this combat you know you are pulling at straws when some of the new features are things that where in Arkham city, the story is also missing something, character development comes of as formulaic rather than impactful like for example Kraven why does he do what he does? the big reveal is like because he has cancer? ok...
The traversal is cool I won't take that away from it but it does borderline not feel like a Spiderman game anywhere when the wingsuit thingy is so much faster and efficient and you really only use the swinging to keep momentum going and then the wind tunnels take away any challenge that comes along with it as they are basically just fast travel things once you enter them all of it just feels a bit too automated it adds to a feeling of linearity to the game that doesn't need to be there also the UI/HUD and all the environment elements that are presumably only viewable to the player like the wind tunnels and thousands of other collectibles make for a game that really never lets you fully immerse yourself in it.
