Even if Spider-Man 2 doesn't hit as hard as the first game, the quality and spectacle of this dual-Spidey adventure continues to cement Insomniac as one of the best studios working today.

My ONLY issue with the game, that completely gutted the stealth in this game for some reason. You have no tools for silently taking out a room full of enemies, no traps, no web bombs, nothing, all you can do is shoot web to get enemies to move so you can do perch/silent takedowns making attempting to clear a room silently take FOREVER. It’s really weird how that whole element was all but almost removed when it was so well implemented in the first but aside from that one thing, phenomenal game.

20:00 I think the feeling you're getting at is that, in a game, it usually feels bad to deliberately do something sub optimal. Sometimes its best not to have the option at all (outside of accessibility options) (e.g. Auto-battle systems in rpgs etc) Since web slinging is so core to the identity of Spider-Man, that aspect needed to feel more mobile or have a system in place where the wing suit cant be abused (e.g. have the wing suit really slow, but can be boosted temporarily if used after a web sling)

Just a heads up. You reported no technical issues, but I've had the game crash 4 times, and once it shut down my PlayStation completely. Maybe I've been unlucky, but it's something to keep in mind. EDIT: I don't think I've ever had a PS5 game turn off my console before. So maybe it was just a fluke? It's switched off once before because it was too hot, but this time was definitely the game. It froze just as I was transitioning into a mission and got stuck like that. So after waiting a minute I went to dashboard and close the game, which turned off the console like the plug had been pulled. Very odd.

I'm starting to genuinely despise the number of reviews opening qith "You're not here to find out if the game is good or not". Not all of us loved the first one. It got a fair number of 7 out of 10s. Miles' game was an improvement but I'm not automatically assuming just because Sony threw a metric Spiderverse worth of money at Insomniac that the experience is going to be my cup of tea. I'm glad you enjoyed it but seriously, that kind of an opening instantly made me just want to look for another review.
@SpudNickleson-im7is

I feel like the "new locations don't create new gameplay" critique of Queens and Brooklyn has come up in other games that Skill Up has covered recently. But I'm not sure I can think of any examples where this has ever been the case. Novgorod in Witcher 3 is the best example I can think of, but that's a very different type of game. When it comes to open world action games like Spiderman, Assassin's Creed, Horizon, Ghost of Tsushima, Far Cry, GTA, Red Dead etc I'm not sure I can think of a time when the way you played the game changed because you got to a new area.
@runbaa9285
@runbaa9285 11 месяцев назад
New movement opportunities usually come from the players' own intrinsic motivations. Like how hack 'n slash games can usually be beaten by playing in a very basic manner. But for those that want to learn and explore its mechanics, there are usually depths beneath the surface level that can be explored should you have the motivation. It's extremely hard to design a game-world that actually forces you to learn different movement types for different areas, because changing things up like that would mean a higher learning curve for the players, which is generally frowned upon by the general gamer population nowadays for accessibility (and ease of play) reason. The last game that specifically designs different areas to require different skill sets to traverse was Assassin's Creed 2, as far as I know, where each new city you visit require you to traverse it differently, like how in Venice for 80% of the time, you HAVE to either stay on rooftops, or find a boat, or else you'll have to swim, which is different than Florence where everything is grounded. Not a lot of games that I know after then, even in the AC franchise, demand that kind of adaptability from the players.

@sweetbabyrayso5262

i agree. i actually think it would be to games detriment if you were forced to go to queens and brooklyn to do certain activities that are fun. At most there should have been (there still might be but i dont have a review code) queens and brooklyn specific side encounters that are just fun and interesting without providing any type of reward that would incentivize you to only stay in queens and brooklyn. A good example of this is in red dead redemption 2 with how going into the swamp at night you can encounter the night folk, or going into saint denis you can see multiple beggars in the rundown areas, or in rhodes you can go to the fields and see slaves working with the tobaco. I think if spider man2 (again, havent played the game so it might be in there) had encounters that really make you feel like you are in queens or brooklyn it would go a long way. Like seeing kids play in basketball courts and you can play with them in queens, delivery men rushing to deliver food and you can help them, parties on rooftops of brooklyn, or in brooklyn visions you can just straight up take an exam as miles. doesnt have to give a reward but just be a thing that can happen and something you can interact with. obviously this leans more into the rpg side of the game but i think it would be a great addition

Looks amazing, but I feel like the industry/market is hitting a point where $70 for a 20 hour game (or 30 hour platinum trophy) isn’t really making sense. Meanwhile we get anywhere from 50-100 hours from current gen releases like Elden Ring and Baldur’s Gate 3 for the same price (to name just two). Idk. I get that some games are becoming story- and experience-centric, and are not just about hours and bloated content, and I’m not saying the value of a game only correlates to hours played. But despite how amazing this game looks, I’m finding myself feeling like taking a pass on this, because of how short-lived my experience playing Miles Morales was. Maybe that’s just me. Would love to hear your views on this in future vids!

2018 Spider-Man’s one actual innovation was the web swinging. Everything else was basically just Arkham with a brighter color palette and if Batman always rolled a natural 20 on dexterity checks. Just getting around the city by swinging was delightful. There was skill in it. You had to learn how to maximize horizontal speed by feel. Being able to fly with the wing suit seems like a weird choice. It would make sense if it worked as a SUPPLEMENT to swinging, like a real wing suit. It lets you continue your glide, keep altitude between buildings. But being genuinely able to just fly, and it’s faster and more efficient than swinging? I don’t think I like that.

Another one of these silly comments. The 2018 game isnt 'just batman with a police car color palette'. The web swinging is vastly different, and the combat takes inspiration more from DMC with its emphasis on aerial combat. Ill reserve judgement until after Ive played the game, but from the footage the wing suit is only faster in wind tunnels and high above ground where there's nothing to swing from. When there are actual buildings around web swinging is faster.

@@Jerry-dx3cb rofl devil may cry? because you can air juggle enemies? what a load of crap. The combat was clearly inspired directly by arkham. It felt like arkham but with spiderman's moveset, which of course includes aerial attacks.

@@johnwrath3612 Because it's much safer to fight in the air? Because there are flying enemies and enemies that explicitly limit your aerial movement? Yes Im bringing up DMC as an example and Im right to do so. Mad max's combat for example is a direct copy of Arkham's, spiderman's on the other hand does enough things differently that it'd be incredibly reductive to call it 'just Arkham'.

Big bummer unless they're designed better. Besides those MJ/Miles civilian stealth segments, several of the Taskmaster challenges and some of the Screwball DLC challenges are the only thing between the 1st game, the DLC & Miles Morales that I do not enjoy playing at all. The design & scoring of some of the challenges is extremely lame (like the "stealth" challenges that are just about kicking dudes in the face one after another as rapidly as possible) and a few of them were also very demanding, requiring basically absolute perfection to reach the top score thus making them incredibly tedious. In all my years of video gaming the thing I consistently find is that gamey timed & scored challenges added to an immersive narrative experience are always the least entertaining (and often the most frustrating) part of a game. The Batman Arkham games handled these kinds of challenges much better imo, having an optional challenge mode outside of the main campaign that entices you to play it by letting you try different characters with unique playstyles.

I think Skillups reviews are amazing! Something a lot of people misunderstand about these reviews are while they contain criticism, it’s constructive criticism. He’s not saying this game is bad or don’t buy it, he’s giving the creators insight on things that could make the game go from a 10 to an unforgettable experience that will evolve the industry. This review tells me the game is a 10 but it’s not a game that changes how we think of a Spider-Man game. BUT THATS OK! Sometimes I just want a safe enjoyable game. I’m glad we have reviewers like skill up because while I like being told I made a good purchase, I like being told what I could have, what could be better.

If the wing suit behaved like the glider in Zelda TotK, more of a descent control mechanism, less of a traversal tool, it would've been a better implementation.

But fall damage is automatically turned off, plus Web swinging would probably save you from any fall. A better change would be a tweak to deceleration and altitude drop, plus more wind tunnels in queens and Brooklyn and less in manhattan. That way, you could still glide over buildings and maintain height from a slingshot, but you can't really ride it for more than a few blocks before getting slow.
