This game was a bit of a formative experience for me as a young teen.

Pros:
- Fantastic traversal
- Tight, satisfying combat
- Great characters
- My favorite Spider-Man story of all time
- Incredible boss fights
- Explosive set pieces
- Awesome villains
- Large variety of suits with tons of fan service
- Open-world serves the gameplay mechanics, is mostly un-invasive
- Goes deep into both Peter Parker and Spider-Man’s lives, and the contrast between them
- Graphical, performance upgrades are all welcome additions
- Incredible third act
- Side-missions, activities are fun and get really creative with new mechanics
- Game is fun and quick to platinum

Cons:
- Most MJ/Miles sections are annoying and difficult to replay
- FEAST and Lab missions mostly slow the story’s momentum; other missions, while revelatory, move too slow (only really an issue on replays).
- First half of the game is a bit awkwardly paced, takes a lot of time explaining open-world elements
- DLC never reaches the heights of the main game
