Miles Morales acts as both a great interlude between the original Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 on top of being a short but really sweet game in its own right - clocking in at around 14 hours for 100% completion without NG+ extras.
There's tons of improvements here to cut down on some of the monotony that featured in Spider-Man 1, especially combat and traversal-wise that I hope get built upon even more in Spider-Man 2. Writing and characters are just as strong as the first game too with its main antagonist being a particular highlight.
I do wish there were more fleshed side quests as opposed to the somewhat samey objectives scattered across the map - something that seems to plague many an open world game. The few proper side quests Miles Morales does have, though, are excellent.
