Play Enlisted today using my link for a free bonus pack with soldiers, weapons, and more: playen.link/darkspace Insomniac's Spider-Man Series is a series that I love so much that I want it to be the best it can be. Unfortunately, I don't think these Physics are the best they can be. (They're perfect for arcade swinging.) But they didn't really change anything from last time- except for adding an optional slider that essentially just decreases the strengths of various aspects of their (already bad) swinging system. I'm not claiming to be absolutely right, but my opinion is that they should aim more toward physics simulation, like Spider-Man 2 (2004).

Technically, a loop in a faithfully recreated physics system would still require a dive or at least a fall from an adequate height for it to work. In fact the only reason it could ever work the way it did without that prerequisite in Spider-Man 2 2004 in its otherwise realistic engine was because of the boost mechanic that let us delete real-world conservation of energy laws.

The thing is insomniacs spider man games aren’t trying to be overly punishing, they push the player through positive reinforcement. And this game gives you multiple options your supposed to use in succession of each other, not individually. It’s like using one of Dante’s moves in devil may cry to combo and complaining the combat is shallow, your not playing as intended.

I wouldn't call obvious auto-corrections bailing the player out positive reinforcement. Maybe game journalists with a backlog find it rewarding, but a better option in my opinion would be simple inputs that the player can easily use to pull off those maneuvers themselves. I've never played Devil May Cry, but if simply running into an enemy made Dante pull a kick-backflip bullet rain, I wouldn't find that positively reinforcing in the slightest.

You know how that works but still you typed this shitty take thinking that this is your Dr House moment where you show the guy opposing you the flaw in their beliefs.

*These aren't timestamps. They're a part of a later section of my comment (also read the conclusion if you want a tldr) Swing (no assist): ~2:27 Wing (no assist): ~2:27 Wing (default): ~2:21 Swing (default): ~2:15 This video is a real mixed bag. There are some points I agree with (the webs ineracting with the world, parkour, wall running/crawling, etc.), but others are so off that Im just convinced you dont know what you're talking about. So I'll try and point out specific points I disagree with in a numbered list. 1. Game Dev is hard. You don't know anything about game development. Point blank, your suggestions for fixing these issues (most of which you're intentionally causing) are so laughably nonsensical, it's apparent that you don't understand the trial and error of making a game. Game engines and physics systems are limited. Sometimes work arounds are necessary, especially when making a game this big on a deadline like this. Insomniac has an extensive history with crunch culture, and every decision they make is to actively combat crunch in their development cycles. So no, they're they're not going to completely change the swinging in a direct sequel when the swinging already worked more than well enough. Also, they don't have as much "status" or "power" as you like to imply. I'm not sure where you got that idea from. 2. The swinging isn't obsolete. You're just bad. While, yes, it is possible to only use the web wings or to hold R2 the whole time, you ignored the biggest factor of this conversation: neither of these options are what anyone would call fun. Seriously, you completely neglect the fact that no one in their right mind would play the game like this. Instead of using the tools the game gives you, like spider dash/jump, doing tricks, or point launching, that actively make the game more challenging and engaging (which is exactly what you claim you wanted), you decided to play like a 5 year old that can't read the tutorial. This is most apparent when you compared the webwings to swinging, so I did a little experiment. I went from the northern most point on the map, the roof of the church in the Harlem cemetery, to the southern most point, a flagpole just off the shore of the financial district (it's in direct view of Lady Liberty, can't miss it). I did two runs only swinging (I included zips, tricks, point launches, and dashes/jumps) and two runs with only web wings (I was only able to use one dash and one jump), one run each with swing assist settings turned all the way down and one with them on the default. the times for each run are at the top of this comment for simplicity sake. As you can clearly see, my times for swinging were equal to or faster than using only the web wings. Not only that, using the tools given to me by the game (zips, tricks, point launches, and dashes/jumps) made the swinging so much more fun. I'm really not sure why you chose to swing with little to no input on your part. It's clear that you either intentionally made the swinging look bad to deceive your audience, or you're just bad at the game. I'm inclined to believe the latter. Obviously this isn't the most scientific, or even accurate, experiment, but I just wanted to make a point that the web wings don't make the swinging obsolete. The swinging is just as viable and just as fast if you're good at it. You're just not. 3. Speaking of swing assist... You'll notice that both my times were slower when I had the assist settings turned down. The reason for this being that you're really underselling the difference between having them turned up or down. While yes, turning the assist to 0 does remove the barrier above the ground when you swing, that's not the only thing it does. In short turning the setting down makes the physics affect you more realistically. So things like air resistance and the length of your web can slow you down. Objects like trees, lamps, and cars actually get in your way. When the setting is turned up, it flubs the numbers so you stay more centered as you swing, whereas when it's off, you'll swing closer to the building you're attached to. All this to say: turning off the assist settings makes it more challenging to maintain your flow, which is the whole basis of this swinging system. The fact that you just brush this off as a slight change leads me to believe you didn't even play the game with these settings off. If you had, you would've definitely noticed the way it affects your gameplay. 4. Web of Shadows who? This is just personal bias, but I'm so sick of people claiming that Spider-Man 2 (PS2) had the best swinging ever. It didn't. Case in point, Ultimate Spider-Man released literally a year later, and was already a more refined swinging system than 2. But I'm not here to talk about that game. I want to talk about what I think to be the best swinging system (until SM 2018), Web of Shadows. This game goes hard. If you haven't played it, you should. The swinging is just as physics based as the '04 game, but it's visceral and acrobatic. In short, it's fun and not enough people bring it up. 5. Conclusion. I don't want to be an ass, but its clear that you misrepresent (or don't understand) the game's swinging system and it feels like you're just trying to rag on the hot new thing right now because you can. There's more I could mention, but this comment is already way too long and too negative. I will say, the editing and presentation of this video are absolutely fire. No hate from me, I just disagree with your points. I'm more than willing to have a genuine conversation on this topic.

I largely agree. The biggest problem with this video is that it largely ignores the benefits of the swinging system they have in place and the significant improvements the sequel made. It also spends an odd amount of time lamenting the loss of small things like climbing your own webs or slightly more involved webcrawling, features that ultimately wouldn't have had much practical functionality and were merely neat things you can do in those games moreso than anything else. The level design alone is already vastly superior to any other Spider-Man game. Pretty much every object serves a purpose now thanks to the addition of corner tethering. This allows you to continually circle around objects like water towers, poles, antennas, and pretty much any vertical object you can think of to gain speed and potentially redirect your direction, in addition to its obvious function of facilitating tight turns at high speeds. The sheer density of the city also provides a litany of traversal obstacles, which often become more difficult to avoid at high speeds, but the density also provides tons of traversal opportunities like point launching or wind gusts. The risk, reward trick system that was introduced in Miles Morales thrives in the 0 swing assist environment as it inherently rewards swinging low to the ground if you want to be speeding through the city as fast as possible. Pulling off tricks as quickly as possible to fill your boost gauge and keep boosting in rapid succession pretty much necessitates that you're not high off the ground and are threading the needle close to ground, rewarding skilled play. The Activision Spider-Man games are definitely very physics based, but people completely ignore that the extremely simple geometry of those games made that sort of gameplay extremely easy to accommodate. You think of webs getting caught on snags in these high model detailed environments (fire escapes, tree branches, the other myriad of uneven surfaces) and it would likely lead to an annoying experience. One where there's too many geometric variables at play for players to make reasonable predictions and plans regarding their trajectory and momentum like those older games. It's part of the reason corner tethering is able to work as it does currently, since it doesn't have to worry about wrapping around any of the various objects in an unpleasant way. The video places such an emphasis on "realism" when that wasn't what made Spider-Man 2 (PS2) good. It was how how the physics system worked in tandem with the level design and allowed for creative play. Something which Web of Shadows pushed even further by just going bonkers with the swing system and saying screw realism let's exaggerate it for the sake of playability (webs don't attach to buildings in that game but most people don't even care, the boosts can propel you to ludicrous speeds but most people don't mind). Another thing that doesn't seem to get enough appreciation is the sheer variation there is in traversal in this game, each with their own use cases. High speed swinging genuinely requires you to use all the traversal methods and switch between them on the fly (switching to the glider when you think starting a swing arc might cause you to touch the ground for example). This is a far cry from other Spider-Man games where swinging is the primary and only means of moving around besides the various wall movements which were more powerful in those games. I genuinely feel if Web of Shadow's wall movements were added, like sliding up buildings after web zipping up them (something which could transition into dives really nicely I think), being able to web zip off the side of buildings and carry that momentum into a swing, and generally more impactful wall jumps, I think there would be very, very little to actually complain about. Spider-Man 2 fixes the main problem with 2018 and Miles Morales, which wasn't that that the skill floor was too low (holding R2 and automatically swinging), but rather that the skill ceiling was too low. Now there's a very tangible difference between how a novice and a veteran traverses through the game world.

The best comments and replies on this entire video. Everyone here knows ball. Spider-Man 2 is undoubtedly the best Spider-Man traversal we’ve ever had at 0 swing assist. Yeah I kinda wish it wasn’t so clunky to swing low however because you know it’s really hard it gives you an actual challenge. Every single swing low to the ground has the “oh shit am I gonna make it” feeling because you don’t know if the game will abruptly stop you or not. Web wings when used properly are pretty much a safety net anyways. You can pull off almost any low ground swing if you time your wings into your swing. There’s real depth here. You can only find that depth after a ton of hours at 0 swing assist which most people would never want to do. The reason 0 assist is in the game is for the minority of people who do. I would assume the creator of the video would be in that minority yet it seems he didn’t give it much time. The difference between 0 and 1 swing assistance is so vast that you can’t get the best of both worlds. 1 fudges things enough for me that it feels pointless, I might as well be on 10. Imo we need an advanced swinging mode. Either you have 10 assist or you’re playing advanced mode. No in between.

You see I understand your view and the points you make but my only issue is, Insomniac Games *never* promised physics based realistic swinging therefor I cannot be upset at the arcade style mechanics. If they had promised realistic swinging and then didn't deliver, then yeah sure I'd be upset. But for what its worth, I think Insomniacs swinging mechanics are some of the best ever made in ANY traversal game. Another thing I wanna mention is Insomniac when presenting their first Spider-Man game back in 2017 did in fact say that they wanted their web-swinging to feel nonstop. As in nothing will stop your momentum. That's why there is seamless swinging to wallrun transitions and also why the game will help correct a mistake like if you were to hit a wall near the top, it would automatically adjust for you with an preset animation. Its to make you feel unstoppable while swinging and personally, I don't see anything wrong with that.

I completely agree. The improvements made only add more complexity with players now able to take more ownership over how they want to swing, maximising style or speed or both and in a beautiful presentation of NY. I think this system is the best for the widest player base, with new and veterans being able to gain something from it. I grew up playing SM2 as a kid and absolutely adored swinging in that game and I feel that insomniac whilst aren’t completely physics based are building a system with nuances and complexity for expression without removing that heroic edge and feel for the casual or ‘arcade’ gamer to appreciate

“That game had ACTUAL physics” *shows clip of the most laughably busted PS2 physics possible lol. You’re not thinking about any of this practically. They have to allow the player to move through a MASSIVE map constantly rendering, so the less obstacles, the better. Also, while it may be fun to fuck around and break a physics system, from a quality, gameplay and artistic perspective, having the superhero move and act like a superhero instead of constantly fucking up slamming into walls is the better way to go. Sure they could have a “wall slamming active mode,” but as a default, this makes much more sense. Edit: It would be good for them to make it so, instead of clipping through the buildings, the web bent along side them, either bringing him into a wall run, or spinning him into a following web shot for a slight speed boost upon release though. 🤷‍♂️ 🕸

"Have webs coil instead of clipping" that would be a physics based system if te webs are real and not just animated as coiling around. If theyre animated that way but they dont get any shorter, then it's just more useless cosmetic crap to fool mindless players. This game fooled many into thinling that it has any actual physics, because i keep being told to turn off assist to "make it more rrealistic". What youre dewcribing is exactly the issue,you thimk a good game is a game that makes you look cool, this is what a good game is to a mindless player.

I don't like how you're not allowed to hold your web, but I can't agree with the "It doesn't make me feel like Spider-Man." User input is important. You don't swing without touching R2 and you don't jump out of your swing *effectively* if you don't time X at the appropriate time. Sure, you can just hold forward and R2 the entire time, but that is not the intended method you're supposed to do, and you're certainly not gonna be moving pretty fast if you continue to do that. That's where skill gap comes in. They gotta make the game playable for those who like Spider-Man but aren't exactly gamers. As for the swinging forcing you to go in a certain direction, that is physics-based and realistic. It's even more prominent with Swing Assistance lowered because when you swing from something, you are not supposed to be able to go all the way to the left when you've shot a web to a building on your right. The wall-running is absolutely shit tho.
@FeliciaHardy

Exactly, just because you can do something that makes the game hold your hand the entire time doesn't mean you should or have to. A lot of people have brought up the web wings and wind tunnels but the only problem is you aren't forced to use them to get everywhere, saying that they're faster than web swinging doesn't mean much when there's instant fast travel. I didn't use the wind tunnels really at all to get around the map and it's because you're supposed to enjoy the game and web swing but if you wanna get somewhere faster you can, nobody's gonna use it to get from one end of the map to the other unless it's just to say you can do that, if you wanna get from one end of the map to the other really fast you wouldn't swing or use the wind tunnels since there's instant fast travel. What I did and a lot of people I know or have seen play the game use them together without the tunnels, they do need to improve some things but nobody plays the game like how he says, nobody holds R2 the entire time, and nobody I've seen uses the web wings to fly everywhere. If you're a lower skill player it can be useful to get to places faster but most players won't actually use them like that I don't think especially as someone who's completed the game twice and didn't use them once in that way (pardon my awful use of periods and commas I'm way too tired to be typing)

The second half of your comment is confusing. He said he didn’t have a problem with this per say, it was that it was animation based. So not only are you not allowed to make a mistake, your mistakes can feel janky and awkward with animations starting and stopping improperly, and once again takes control away from the player. I’m not the one flipping around this corner, matter fact I’m still pressing the same buttons I’m using to swing so why is this happening? I think that’s the main point there.

Why is it so hard for you guys to understand? No one is asking Insomniac to take away your movement system of choice. All we are asking is to add another movement system of our choice. That way everyone can be happy. Instead they just keep introducing new playable characters and now have to dedicate time and effort in creating new animations for their part of the gameplay. Like WTF?? First they introduced Miles. Who has his own animations for his own game and some new animations for this new game. And now they are introducing another spider character Cindy. Who, obviously, is going to have her own animations with her own gimmick and on top of that Miles and Peter will have new ones too. And the slow walking Life is Strange, MJ and Haley sections will make a comeback for sure since the creative director said on an interview he doesn't give a shit. Which would require their own set of programming and their own set of animations. So why are they, instead of solidifying the core gameplay mechanics of their franchise keep on diluting it with as many characters as they can. Even when the Arkham devs added new characters they were smart enough to restrict them only to the challenge sections so that they don't have to put extra effort into making them fun to play as in the free roam. The only exception was Catwoman and she felt like shit to play. They kept on improving on the core gameplay mechanics of Batman and look how it ended. Even if you don't like the tank sections in Arkham Knight, you cannot deny that it was leagues above Asylum and City with its gameplay mechanics and how every mechanics flowed from one thing to another so smoothly.

This is the craziest, disingenuous, and/or misunderstood take I’ve heard about Insomniac’s Spider-Man 2. Spider-Man’s 2 swinging combined with the wing suit is the most advanced video game technology we’ve ever had! And it’s pretty incredible! If Spider-Man 2 didn’t do it for you I would highly suggest you stick with the OG Spider-Man 2. While I understand your gameplay desire of it all being 100% physics based this would never work in actual gameplay practicality when you are going at such high speeds with so many obstacles in the way. A game has to use game rules. And I think Insomniac’s traversal in Spider-Man 2 has done an incredible job at giving you control and not let you see too much those game rules. But if you look for them they will be there! I you can say that about any game.

So I'm gonna start by pointing out the few things in this video I agree with, just to start on a positive note: I agree that the wallcrawling is very flawed, it doesnt work that well outside of the main story, its very buggy and definitely needs a lot more attention. I also agree that the webs themselves clipping through buildings does look odd, trying to stay in place while on a web is also disappointingly buggy. Now for why I don't like this video: Most of your criticisms in this video are focused on web swinging with swing assist on, which I would understand if this were spiderman 1, but now that swing assist is a toggleable option, everything you said against the web assisted swinging is irrelevant, because the game lets you CHOOSE whether or not to use those mechanics, so the people that enjoy the easy web swinging can use it, if you don't like the swing assist then dont use it. This also invalidates your argument about just being able to hold r2 and go through the whole map, because turning off swing assist essentially makes that impossible, since you actually have to steer where you're swinging. Now, about the wingsuit, you talk a lot about how it "makes swinging completely irrelevant", which even though the wind tunnels do make the wingsuit faster than swinging, is completely untrue. Sure, the wingsuit will be faster than swinging in certain conditions, but this observation is completely ignoring the fact that using swinging AND webwings in tandem is significantly faster than using only one of the two, the webwings aren't just an alternate mode of transportation, its a tool to unlock speeds you wouldnt get overwise, which is exactly how they should be implemented. Also, in your speed comparison showing web swinging and webwings side by side, you clearly are using miles's venom abilities, which kinda ruins your point about webwings being too OP if you cant even fly with them without using other mechanics, which OH MAN, WHAT A SHOCKER!! Its exactly what the game wants you to do! It doesnt want you to just choose one and run with it, it WANTS you to use everything you have together, thats what makes insomniacs web swinging challenging, its not about fighting physics to keep yourself moving forward, its about using everything you have to not only maximize your speed, but to look sick as hell while doing it. The game uses animations in its webswinging to make each movement look smooth, and flow nicely into the next, so that swinging feels AND looks cool, so yeah, the game DOES want you to look like spiderman more than it wants you to FEEL like spiderman, but even then, it still does a great job at making you feel like spiderman, just tweaked a bit to make people like you who swing like an NPC not suck too bad! Though, if you REALLY want that insane physics nonsense you endlessly hunt for, then play 2004 spiderman. Also, I want to mention that the physics engine you mentioned, euphoria, cannot be used by insomniac for legal reasons, though I may be wrong about this. Edit: I dunno why I went off so hard on this, it really isn't that serious 💀

Although the physics in the 2004 Spider-Man game were cool I think people just forget that it isn't nearly as fun to play compared to some Spider-Man games we got later (including the Insomniac ones). The game now is dated in several aspects and the swinging overall just feels stiffy to play even if you can do some cool things with the physics. Insomniac's SM games may not be the ones with fully physics-based swinging, but they are the best middle ground in terms of actual fun and style with some kind of realism.

That's true, and as a player who played both, everything he said is justified and correct here. I have a PS2 and find myself having more satisfaction in playing with the old one because it has depth, you feel like you're improving as a player and because of that, so is Spider-Man. Insomniac are wizards, but not in every regard, nobody is perfect at the end of the day and for a gamer who likes to earn everything and not having things gifted to him just for accessibility, this ain't it.

this video is just misinformation and misleading. theres a swing assist option if you want harder swinging, in most of these clips your making the game look worse on purpose. like in the wind tunnel complaint you said you can’t leave them and it fights you but if you play the game normally yk thats not true😭, also when you run into something you still lose momentum. you talk about how the movie tie in game is the gold standard but pretty much every feature you mention is the same if not improved on. like i said earlier when you run into something you play and animation of you going over it but you still lose most your speed. the movie tie in game did the same thing but instead you just float up and the whole wingsuit section looks and sounds like a skill issue and nobody makes you use the wings. theres tons of other mis information in this video but thats the most obvious, don’t listen to this dude if your thinking about purchasing

Some other features I’d love to see with traversal: - When doing chase sequences, I wish you would have to utilize specific air tricks as dodges from bullets or attacks. Almost similar to the Martin Li subway station fight in the first game where you had to either jump to the side or ceiling to properly dodge. Tricks being used for practical reasons as well would be awesome to see. - We should be able to choose how much web we are letting out on the downswing. I want to be able to jump/swing from skyscrapers and keep reeling out web to get a massive downswing. I’m sure there’d need to be a limit to how much can be reeled out because in canon Spidey doesn’t have unlimited web fluid. The hope for this goes hand in hand with being able to climb back up on webs while swinging. It’d make swinging close to the ground more challenging if you didn’t want to hit the street you’d have to start climbing back up an appropriate amount of time before. - Id love to be able to choose which hand we shoot a web from while swinging. It’d give more control over which direction Spidey leans towards and would make tapering your way to your selected destination a lot prettier. - We should be able to shoot a web from a standing position without needing to jump first. He does it in plenty of cinematics and almost every single Spider-Man media. The huge leaps are fun but I don’t like starting swings off like that every single time.

@@calebmcclure3893 I honestly think they could just utilize the d pad. Imagine this: while swinging (holding R2), if you press down on the d pad you reel out more web. If you press up on it, you climb back up your web (shortening its length). If you press and hold the left or right before pressing R2 it controls which hand he shoots the web from. All of that is easily implemented and entirely up to the player to utilize or not. Simply, if you don’t use the d pad controls, the web swinging is exactly the same. Let the game decide which hand shoots the web and let the web’s length be predetermined and unaltered. This works without redoing the entire framework they’ve built. I just wish they would consider more customization. It’s like tricks. You never have to use air tricks but they are fun and add to the experience. In this case, you’d never have to use the d pad controls. But if you choose to, it heightens the experience.

I don't think you guys get what Insomniac is going for. They playtest their games, a lot. They see that players don't want a complex and hard to master mechanic for the most part. People like us, who enjoy complex traversal are a minority, so they add fun stuff like loop de loops, swinging around corners or the no assist mode to keep us engaged, but they won't spend time and resources on a mechanic that most people won't enjoy. What they will spend resources on are cutscenes and epic moments, because that's what most people love about super heroes.

I feel like this a double edged thought. On one hand, yeah the swinging mechanics could be Miles better that what we have, with having more expression on the swinging and making it more satisfactory(and with Euphoria the animations might be better, but in its entirety). On the other hand, it would or could become insanely annoying and with way less style and less eye-catching substance(imagine swinging and then a random pole or small branch made you lose all that momentum out of nowhere). I personally think that some changes must be made, but it shouldn't be swinging in the SP2(Activision) way (at least not in its entirety)

That's where the optional helping festures should have a place.

What is not ok is for them to decide when and where you swing, run or flight, that's just playing the game for you.

you lack imagination. making the swinging more skill-based doesn't have to cause any compromise in style (or, "eye-catching substance" as you put it). edit: insomniac claimed 7 years ago to be the studio to finally make the spider-man game that had been long overdue, and what have they done that entire time? insomniac chooses over and over again to prioritise flashy visuals over good game design. and these arguments about it being "harder" to make a good game these days, in a sense are true, because all the game dev leadership does these days is pump millions of dollars into making the graphics look good, and clearly not into hiring people with talent for making actual GAMEplay (imagine being a game director and deciding to pour so much money and man-power into the graphics that it literally restricts the player from moving faster than a certain speed due to hardware limitations, in a SPIDER-MAN GAME). really pathetic that we can't do better than a game from 20 years ago. and the fans of insomniac are so rabid that if you criticise them you just get called "someone who probably loves spider-man lotus" aka a racist. maybe if millions of rabid zoomers who aren't even old enough to know what fun gameplay is would stop brigading anyone who criticises insomniac, then they would actually hear valid cricitism and make their games better. but no, instead we get bryan intihar's stance that "we decided not to change the swinging because why fix something that isn't broken?"

0 swing assist does more than make you able to hit the ground, the physics are much different. If you web a building far to the side, 0 will harshly pull you toward it where 10 will let you go forward still and do whatever you want. You might say that the game is "making you go where it wants you to" but thats how physics work. Later edit: Being able to release L3 and ride the wind tunnels only realy works because most dont have sharp turns. The ones next to EMF and Madison Square Garden will 100% shoot you out the sides if you dont actively steer with them.

The more mainstream games become the more fear devs have of letting the player fail. But failure and overcoming it is one of the things that games can do other entertainment media can't. I do think though some of these issues has to do with the graphical fidelity, like trying to make a more open ended swinging while also maintaining a level of polish is a tough, maybe impossible task. And I get why Insomniac chose what they did. But I think if that was a setting or even unlockable feature it could be a good middle ground. Let the people who want it find it and they'll acceot things looking worse for more depth. Though the wing suit I think is poor, it really became my main mode of transportation bc the map is unnecessarily big and it was often the objectively faster mechanic.

Good points Arthur. I agree with it being hard to give total freedom to players while maintaining animation consistency and polish. Though I do think they were a bit lazy. I didn’t see the point of the increased map size personally, I’d rather theyd have worked on combat, traversal animations and more freedom in both. Web wings with increased map size is lazy and I hate wind tunnels because it’s weird and there’s no challenge or skill to flying around, I mean you don’t even have to fight to stay in the tunnel you can just put your controller down and have spidey fly. Overall the game emphasised boss fights too much, which will get boring after the 2nd time playing. Bigger map, lesser to do = lazy from insomniac for this 2nd entry.

But here's the thing, no one who's actually familiar with the system and has fun with it will ever just hold the trigger. If you're a casual player who's only here for the story, the game will do most of the work, but if you want something more, you absolutely get it. It's a safety net for sure, but it doesn't remove your freedom, expression or movement, and it does allow you to fail.

The amount of animation variance and blending it would require is almost incomprehensible. And no, Euphoria alone can not handle or fix this. In fact, it would probably just make everything feel slow and sluggish like GTA 4 or RDR2 which is fitting for those games but not at all fitting for a Spiderman game. I agree that the swinging could still be better but saying it is the same or worse as Spiderman 2018 is simply not true. 0 swing assistance absolutely makes a difference and you can absolutely not swing across the map just holding R2 with it turned off. Realism for the sake of realism is not always good especially when you are playing a superhero game.

@@DarenKajiWolfIt's not really hardware limitation, it's a limitation in how engines and animation works. They would basically have to develop a system like Euphoria or heavily modify Euphoria specifically for use in a Spiderman game to make full physics viable behause I don't think anyone wants Spiderman to control like Arthur Morgan or Niko Bellic.

My guy do you realise that we are THREE ENTIRE CONSOLE GENERATIONS into the future from the PS2 days, and yet we're going backwards. Not to mention that the Insomniac games have a thousand times the budget that the PS2 game did. Being critical of the mindless swinging of this new game is 100% valid and called for.

I had zero issue getting out of wind tunnels but I did notice even on zero assist settings I noticed the game helping me and not letting me hit things I should have. What you said about the game forcing you to let go of the web was my biggest gripe with the physics .

I’m satisfied with the swinging, would be dope if it was like the OG SM2 too tho, like a mix minus the assistance, get the best of both worlds that are realistic to achieve. The webwings are cool and yeah you can heavily depend on them but you don’t have to, it’s up to you how to use it, I use it to reach a building to swing from that’s just a bit too far and also to gain speed to resume swinging fast. They for sure got to add wall combat in the next game, I think that’d be dope and is very possible, like press X and SQUARE together near a wall and while you’re on it to enter wall combat and press it again anytime to exit wall combat or web strike a grounded or in flight enemy to exit, but of course we’d have to have certain enemies that are able to stick and fight on walls too for a good reason and they’d have to be more resistant to being pulled off the wall and being webbed to it, and they’d have to have an attack from the wall hitting you while you’re grounded. The enemies should be split, types that are always on the ground and types that can do both ground and wall combat, just so that they aren’t always retreating to the wall and forcing you to always fight on the wall with them after you knocked them off in wall combat or gadget hit. Idk, a group of smarter people that make games can figure it out better.

Complaining about the wingsuit is the most moronic bullshot ever. YOU are the player. If YOU choose not to fly through the entire map, then thays YOUR decision. It does not force you to use it. It adds so many cool possibilities when navigating the map.

wall crawling has generally been pretty bad on most spider-man games. The only aspects I liked was crawling around open doorways, edges, and corners in TASM games and the horizontal wall running while swinging in the current game. We still lack a game that has good wall crawling when going vertically, but I'll give credit to web of shadows for concept of fighting on walls. Albeit unrealistic, it's kind of cool
