Spider-Man: Singleplayer, 4-6x size of Sunset, Spider-Man is 23, has Peter gameplay

Insomniac said that they are using the latest version of their SO/R&C engine.
That's my worry here. SSO's world was great because it had no reason to even pretend to make any sense. Hence you could have giant fun structures all over the place.
Big for bigs sake is no fun. New Yorkesqe environments are not exactly what I would call varied. And previous Spiderman games were all about tall skyscrapers.
I hope IG will not be slavishly creating the city more taking elements and going off that.And for the love of god I hope any Peter Parker sections are not forced stealth sections.
I'm still 100% certain there will be a nod, or a one-off balloon mission. There has to be.
lol
I like pretty much everything I'm hearing about the game.
But Spidey auto saving badies though to fit the no killing rule... not sure how I feel about it.
I don't want to straight murder people, but I wanna throw enemies off buildings and shit. Hopefully there are super goons who can take the fall lol.

Everything about this sounds amazing so far...
Are you kidding me?! Worst Spidey game confirmed.
Says you.
If used sparingly/effectively it's perfectly ok. It's like adding spice to your favorite dish. While adding too much would ruin the flavor, the right amount would actually enhance it. One trailer is not enough to judge wether insomniac has ruined the dish if you catch my drift.
There was one in Ultimate Spiderman, where Venom's very first victim was a kid whinging about his lost balloon.
You fucking eat him.

That's just an assumption, right? That would be bad.
The bad guys gun will kill Spider-Man, not the bad guy.

I don't know I got pretty pumped watching that. I guess I'm in the minority on this one but QTE don't really bother me

Seriously. I like QTEs. Never had a problem with them in any game I've played that used them. Hell, one of my favorite games of all time is Asura's Wrath.
Im pretty sure im not the only one, not even in gaf or this thread whose hype went down by the QTE-tastic fest at the end of the trailer.
I mean im still looking forward to getting this game, but man, i did not like that sequence one bit.

Black Cat will force you to go to bed early and hinder your attempts to strengthen social links.
Actually... that isn't bad in this scenario.

This is a spiderman game. Play it like you are spiderman. dont kill people. Hopefully there will be xp penalties to help force the issue.
All the Spider-Man related threads so far prove you wrong, gamers do get hype by QTE sequences and glorified cinemarics
How to hype ppl up : Make it pretty!
Funny you say that because a lot of the non-gaf/gaming forum reactions online seem to be impressed by the cinematic segments shown off. From their point of view, they're getting movie-level action sequences that still require active engagement (only possible via QTE) along with terrific combat and swinging mechanics when not in those setpiece moments. A win-win. And like it or not, those are what make up the majority of sales of a game like this. It's really only on enthusiast forums/message boards where there are some QTE complaints, and even then, you'll find a decent amount of people on here that are okay with them being done for setpiece moments.

Really really hoping Venom and Carnage are in.

Really?
Those look pretty damn close to the same quality to me. I'd lean closer to identical than I would jarringly different.

What year does this game take place?
Mate....games are just foolin you good.
All in engine look at the transitions there is no sqitch between cutscene and gameplay.
Probably they just spend their budget on effects like DOF during none gameplay scenes but by the smell of things the models and textures are all the same from cutscene to gameplay.
Its using the same engine from Sunset Overdrive. Probably upgraded here and there.
Sony needs to let them release this on PC god damn it.....this engine looks like its very well behaved so i can imagine Pascals and Voltas rendering this at 4K60 with ease.

PRE-ORDER CANCELLED
Yeah me too.
Also, we can't punch enemies off buildings? Spidey will always auto-web them to safety?

I can imagine them implementing some kind of random events system like Red Dead Redemption and GTA V had.

No pizza deliveries, no buy.
Pretty sure that's from SM3 not SM2.

that, traversal-oriented challenges from Sunset Overdrive, and villain-focused missions similar to the Arkham games would be perfect

Miles seems like more of a DLC tease to me than anything else, but I'd welcome multiple playable characters in the core campaign if they genuinely play differently.
Definitely hoping there are a few allies in the game who'll pop up here and there.
I also think that a Punisher mission where you're fighting alongside him but also deftly preventing him from killing any of the enemies would be a lot of fun if done right.

Sure, but you can't get any of them above B without letting villains take over the city. And even when you do, it just triggers an event that gets them killed.
Welcome to Peter Parker's life.
That better be Ock.
