as a huge comic reader i am consistently excited for comic book games to come out. i am ALSO consistently disappointed with games that waste the characters they were given. this has grown me to be skeptical of new games coming out. i was a lil suspicious of ssktjl, and I never had much hope for avengers. however, this is the first time i have been SURE that a game will be good.
this game improves on EVERYTHING in the first game, taking some newer features from spider-man miles morales, but adding plenty of new features on top of it. i think now that these two characters are established they can tell crazy fun stories.
i went into this game blind, literally not knowing ANYTHING. and i LOVED seeing everything unfold. the roster of villains in this game i think is a lot better than the first game, and some of the choices made in the story are insanely interesting. i'd love to say which but i try to avoid spoilers so...
i really only have two problems with this game, and one of them doesnt really matter. majority of the suits in the game, are either returning, or incredibly similar. for example, peter has the advanced suit, which is the suit created, and used for majority of the first game. in this game they introduce the advanced 2.0, which is the same suit but the colors are a LOT more vibrant. instead of making 1.0 a suit style (which is a great new feature btw), they instead made it it's own suit. another problem i have with the suits, are that 12 of peter's suits are from the spider-man movies. i understand that people are going to want to play as these suits. but i just wish they would group them together instead of making them separate, especially when they don't get new styles. the current trilogy of spider-man movies in the mcu, have six suits. i just feel thats a little too excessive.
talking about miles suits is going to be a little harder, because he as a character has only been around for a little over 10 years. he hasn't had nearly as much time as peter to get unique suits, so most of them in this game are original creations (which is actually really fun). but to me a lot of his suits just look so similar. but all of this doesn't really matter, because they are cosmetics, and most of the time you'll just stick to your favorite suit.
the other problem i have with the game is how some of the missions are repetitive. some of the activites that are based off of the characters in the game, are very underwhelming. again, i can't say much due to spoilers, but I just think these missions could be a LOT more creative.
but the pros definitely outshine the cons. this is a perfect sequel to a perfect superhero game, and all future comic book games should aspire to be.
i definitely rambled too much but i just love this game :>
