This is a minor gripe but why are Peter and Miles so cavalier about their identities
That's what made me go back to play Miles Morales after I started 2, Peter is saying Miles' name in front of Sandminions and vice versa. So I thought there was some No Way Home s*** that happened in Miles where everyone knows their identities
But nah, that's just a mistake they constantly make even though they know to call each other Spiderman in public at other times. Phin almost made the same mistake and corrected herself, she said something like "Mi..Spiderman". In that game too, Miles gets injured after a fight, Ganke carries him back to his apartment - but the cutscene shows when they enter the apartment, he's carrying Miles without his mask
At least show him deactivating his invisibility or Ganke taking off Miles' mask once they get inside or something because it looks like Ganke just carried Miles across the city in his costume without his mask
In 2, Miles has a Spiderman costume on a mannequin in his bedroom with drawings and gadgets etc right there. How is he gonna explain that if someone comes over or sees it through his window
I just got to the part where Venom is turning people into Venominions and after Peter and Miles free them, there's citizens right next to them. And Peter calls Miles by name
Also after their fight and they get the suit off Peter, they stand on a rooftop, both of them with their masks off having a convo. Y'all not thinking of cameras or someone seeing?
Like I said, minor gripe. But it's so avoidable, Insomniac aren't writing them like superheroes who actually try to keep their identities hidden

No one can convince me the writing by insomniac is meant to be taken that seriously

worst example is Miles telling his high school girlfriend who Peter Parker is
Ganke figured on his own and telling his mom is fine but random deaf girl being at the crib is crazy
I've been giving Insomniac a lot of s*** for some of the stuff in their Spiderman games but anyone who says the sequel is worse than the first one is smoking the purest crack. Other than 2 being slightly buggier/glitchy, it's an improvement in every way. Traversal better, combat better, plot has a TASM2 thing where there's a bit too much going on (which isn't completely bad, my jaw was on the floor when MJ got infected with the symbiote) but overall it's still an improvement on the first
I can't trust anyone who says the first was better, it's not even close imo
100% completion, got the Platinum. An improvement on the first games and that's what matters most in a sequel. They improved almost everything I wanted them to - harder combat, better boss fights, longer time to beat
Messy feeling of the main story makes sense after I saw Insomniac were pressed for time and had to cut a lot out of the game and some things were planned for DLC which never dropped. Wild decision to kill so many major villains offscreen tho, interested to see where they take Spiderman 3 other than obviously Green Goblin
I think Insomniac struggles with mission design of side content that uses the amazing gameplay they built to it's full potential. Most of it boils down to basic chores, swinging around or beating people up. I do applaud the effort though, there is a lot more variety here than the previous games and they did better. Idk why they want us to play as MJ so bad, apparently they didn't add it until late in production and Insomniac insisted because they want us to play as everyone on the Spider team (so expect Ganke missions in 3)
I hope they get rid of this annoying, pretentious, liberal tone in 3. I did a random crime, swung bruh to an ambulance and he's like "Thank you Spiderman. I need to let my boyfriend know I'm safe" like aight nigga
We get that you have representation in your game Insomniac but it's so ham fisted, I'm deadass like this while playing
8.5/10, I'd say the first one and Miles are like 7/10

Everything wrong with Spider-Man 2 has to do with the rushed story, the writing and dialogue. The actual video game part is pretty good (when it lets you play it). Though, the side content is just as mediocre as the first game which is a wasted opportunity. Also, the random events are still really lame like the first game
8/10 game with an awful story and grating characters drags it down to a 5/10

i enjoyed an attempt at actual spider-man media after that felt tied to the 80s-90s era of demettais and micheline but yeah there’s a lot that’s indefensible here

Insomniac are their own worst enemy when it comes to these games imo. Peak traversal and combat but it's like they don't know how to implement it into fulfilling side content and they're afraid of the game feeling repetitive, so you end up with random s*** like shooting wasps as a bee drone. I'd rather they just cut all this type of content and stick to hunter base/Mysterium type side content, even though it's basically more of what you're doing in the main plot
I'm not too mad at the writing/story even if it's obvious Insomniac had to cut and reshuffle a lot leading to many parts of the plot feeling messy and unresolved. I prefer it over the first in a comic/MCU type of way because they just keep introducing new characters and throwing huge set pieces at you. I was hyped during that Scream boss fight and when they had you playing as Venom, like wtf are they gonna do next
I loved how they did the Carnage and Chameleon reveals in the side missions too
I genuinely hated everything about Miles writing/characters, that's a game I'd say is like a 7 but the story drags it down to a 5 for me. Miles lost his close friend after his father recently died and this nigga is dancing in the street at the end like
Thought the story in 1 was better & paced better.
Not including MJ missions in either game.
Kinda how I feel about Remake’s story against Rebirth
Ngl. First game was a classic. And it had the goat, future foundation suit.
2nd one is cool. Don't hate it. Don't think its an incredible leap. But will be buying Spiderman 3 day 1

There’s way way way too much scripted bullshit that takes away from the fun parts of the game and the story (from what I could get through) was much worse
And there being no cops makes the world feel super empty.

miles morales was better than spiderman 2 sadly

I liked how snow covered new york was
There’s this one thing insomniac did that I hate but I can’t talk about it rn
release this game?
release this game?
I’m more indifferent to that fact, I just stopped playing it pretty early on.
It’s about the fact that they teased daredevil and then did nothing with it.

Main story's writing/plot is better in 1, but I preferred playing through the story in 2 if that makes sense

Aren't Peter's animated symbiote black suit with the white color scheme and anti-Venom suits basically the Future Foundation suit?
But yeah, Ima need them to step up Miles' suits hard if he's going to be the main Spiderman moving forward. His suits in both of the games he's been in was some heavy ass
