At least we won't have to see that godawful Parker spider-suit I guess.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Their version of Miles is lame af. Miles in Into The Spider-Verse is much better.

 

[rofif]

Incoming "Not my Spider-Man" "Insomniac is super woke" thread

both of these are true statements.
I hate that there are ton of spider mans and universes. Makes him doesn't feel any special at all

 

[Synless]

Incoming "Not my Spider-Man" "Insomniac is super woke" thread

I mean, they are woke. This is not debatable.

Writing was on the wall though.

 

[TGO]

As if we didn't know the whole series was an origin story for Miles.
Problem with Miles in this version is he is annoying.

 

[K' Dash]

They will kill Peter. We all know they will. They will do new MJ missions tho

 

[X-Wing]

I really enjoyed Miles Morales, and to an extent more than the first Spider-Man, so I'm okay with this.
Peter has to retire at some point.

 

[SCB3]

Everyone who just played Spider-Man 2: yes, we know

Well kinda, the game leaves it open ended with certain Spiderman villains being teased so no idea how they'll handle it
I'm still predicting a Spider Family game with 3, Silk and Gwen being the other 2 playable characters

 

[mortal]

I doubt they'll stick by this. Call me cynical, but if the sales of those future entries were to decline they'll probably pull from the classic Spider-man storylines as a way to please fans.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Lame as I dislike this protrayal of Miles and the delivery of his voice actor. I also dislike most of the supporting characters around him.

Still will check out whatever they do next but Spider Man for me has always meant Peter.

 

[Ryuji Goda]

No shit

 

[Punished Miku]

One game was enough for me so I'm already out. Hope the fans enjoy it.

 

[BennyBlanco]

I mean, they are woke. This is not debatable.

Writing was on the wall though.

Even the writing on the wall is woke

 

[Xtib81]

Lmao, how surprising ! There's no way we could have seen this coming. knowing the studio, it was very obvious even without finishing the game.

 

[Kurotri]

Delete this thread, Jesus Christ.

Why? Just use the ignore button.

I wish I couldve retired at 20 years old.

Insomniac is super woke.

 

[X-Wing]

Maybe when you start swinging on webs you can.

 

[ByWatterson]

Why? Just use the ignore button.

Because the title itself is a spoiler. Come on.

 

[SlimySnake]

what the fuck. this is so stupid.

 

[Punished Miku]

That Miles movie is #1 on Netflix right now. Sony always considers film and cross promotion. Probably live action Miles soon.

 

[bender]

Time to introduce the GOAT.

 

[Imtjnotu]

Thank god. i preferred playing as miles more than peter in SM2.

and if you played the game you knew this was coming

 

[Valt7786]

Kill him off in the next game and have Silk take over, anything would be better than Whines Morales in the main role.
Or at least get the VA from spider-verse to replace the current one, 'cause he's awful.

 

[Kurotri]

Because the title itself is a spoiler. Come on.

How? It doesn't tell you anything, all it says is that they will switch it up going forward.

If it bothers you(or anyone else for that matter) feel free to report it.

 

[Arcadialane]

It's really exhausting constantly seeing your identity being replaced.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Probably because writers did an amazing job making Peter an unlikeable, little, whining bitch. All according to plan.

 

[ProtoByte]

 

[Kabelly]

Isn't the whole shtick that anyone can be spider-man.

 

[midnightAI]

Time to introduce the GOAT.

Totally agree

 

[Vlodril]

I don't dislike Miles but after playing his game and what i 've seen in spidey 2 not sure i am also interested enough to get a game solely with him as a lead. At least this Miles. Peter will always be Spider-man for me anyway so ..

 

[TheTurboFD]

Crazy how the term Woke went from meaning "aware of injustice" to now meaning jack shit the way people use it now.

On topic though, I feel like they just need to pause on Spiderman for a while unless it becomes vastly different. The game itself while good just is the same formula as the first and while its not bad, having another with the same formula would suck. Then again how much can they change gameplay wise for this character anyway?

 

[AV]

You're Spider-Man?

 

[Guilty_AI]

Next up: Miles Morales deaf girlfriend is the next main spider-man.

 

[Tripolygon]

Love it. Miles is a better spiderman than Peter.

 

[Swagballs717]

"Insomniac's not replacing Peter, he's just taking a break!"

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Will it still be on the woke side with all the villains stopping being evil?

 

[boomcrab]

I just don't know how Peter is going to sit at the wayside while Miles deals with what was revealed in that post credit scene. Seems a little early, one more game with both of them feels more right to me.
Then give the series a rest, revive it later with Miles as the main spiderman and a timeskip. I would like a more adult Miles as well.

It means Peter's gonna die fighting the Green Goblin in Marvel's Spider-Man 3

 

[Werewolf Jones]

We've had Peter Parker since the 60s so I'm good.

Haven't played the game yet but I do like Miles a lot.

 

[squarealex]

I think it's killing Sony 1st Party Production if all studios have this such of agenda. I don't like Miles Morales from Games... the movie animated is way better.

The next 5 years will be very interesting...

 

[TheKratos]

Miles is the more fun Spiderman anyway. Peter with venom skills was fun but Miles abilities are superior. I hope this means no MJ levels anymore!

 

[Cert.in.Death]

 

[boomcrab]

Possibly, I was trying to avoid spoilers for anybody possibly reading lol
That would be a big decision, I just don't think they'd be brave enough to kill him off when he's seemingly getting his life together, kind of darkens it a bit. This game alone had a lot of death it felt kind of off.
But you could be totally right, I can see it.

 

[Nankatsu]

If he covers the top of his head, sure why not?

Peter Parker is Peter Parker but Insomniac completely missed Peter in this 2nd game. I liked Miles character more than him to be honest.

 

[Urban]

fuck even the thread titel is a spoiler..

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

You're Spider-Man?

Link should really splooge his webs at Ganondorf in their next battle.

The Legend of Bukkake.
