I find it kind of funny that Spider-Man is held up as some sort of golden standard to adhere to in all of this. Spider-Man is also very average game imo. The gameplay is not very compelling, and it’s no surprise that Insomniac’s approach would overstay its welcome after a couple of games. Doubly so when you move from Spider-Man, a character with a more diverse moveset and inherent better traversal abilities, to Wolverine.
They literally just got web slinging right and the childhood dream of a game where you fly through building and stop random crimes as Spiderman worked as it did in your imagination.
that was a big feat but yeah, those games were over hyped when they were basically just really fun to move around in
It’s not quite that simple. The first game also had THE best story and adaptation of the character we’ve ever seen.
Spider-Man 2 already did this decades ago, and there was actually a learning curve to that game’s traversal, making it way more satisfying when you got good at it.
It was 14 years between those games. It’s a good mechanic that deserved to be dusted off. There were a bunch of other Spiderman games between them that didn’t do it. The Insomniac Spiderman had better everything else too, people really forget what that old Spider-Man 2 game was like outside of the swinging mechanics.
Yeah, I will not pretend that I did not have fun with it. However, by the end of it I had not desire for more of it. As a result, I haven’t played any of the sequels.
Because Spider-Man was a very popular, well-recived game both critically and commercially, from the same studio.
They had a standard of expectation and didn’t meet it.
Because you really feel like spiderman… said one review from like one of the first to do the web travel mechanics in a pretty fun way… and when every spider man game basically copy pasted the same mechanics into a barely changed method, rather than criticizing it for being a copy paste of their last game with updated graphics, reviewers decided they could instead copy paste their reviews with slightly updated phrasing.
With the Spider-Man games I just really enjoyed the story. And I also love just swinging through a somewhat accurate New York.
Its literally just an Assassin’s Creed or Arkham game but with more web-swinging.
