r/spiderman2

I was thinking that they can include a dynamic night and day cycle, and have missions set to the time they want the narrative to take place and do a time skip once we get to the mission. Once the mission is complete, we are back in the open world set during the time the mission takes place, and continue the dynamic cycle from there. I love how longnthe cycle takes in Crimson Desert, so I was thinking the same cycle length for Spider-Man 3 would be perfect. I'm also hoping Insomniac will implement Ray-Traced Global Illumination (RTGI) for Spider-Man 3 and make night time bearable because it looks kind of bad in 2.

​

This is what I predicted and then somehow, worse.

Two masked vigilantes flinging around a congested city as if air rights were a suggestion and public safety was voluntary.

Extensive high speed transit through population congested streets, between traffic and across rooftops as if risk is nonexistent. In reality, it’s a pile up of people and vehicles. The game simply makes this outcome cease to exist.

Now we have two of them at once. Two unqualified people, taking decisive action for the entire populated city without authority, without responsibility and without framework.

And combat is so much more aggressive. There is far too much use of excessive force; constant damage to the environment as enemies are thrown, slammed and launched through buildings, as if they are not human.

It's all depicted as heroism.And the only reason for that is that it is truly the core issue.This is simply the public safety problem of vigilantes endorsed.

Authority is not at the forefront. Systems are ignored, rules replaced by improvisation from two masked figures to whom nobody is accountable.

And don’t you dare call this progress. You don’t fix a city by handing it over to two masked freelancing disasters who treat every street like a stunt course. You fix it with law, structure, accountability, the things this whole fantasy keeps dodging. But that’s the trick isn’t it, make it look so clean, so exciting, so “heroic” that nobody stops to ask what would actually happen if any of it had real consequences.

Spider-Man is a menace

I’m 15% into the game and there is so much quippy boring chatter surrounding everything I do. I turned off the Jonas podcast but there continues to be an abundance of radio chatter between characters. It’s distracting when I’m caught up in combat. I’m also feeling the mini games also take away from the web crawler experience. I flew around as a robot bee for no apparent reason. Anyone else feel this way? I loved the first game but my experience with the sequel so far has felt a bit overwhelming and less chill than I anticipated. I just want to swing around and beat up some baddies lol
