    I think why it was so heavy handed in this game is because a very vocal minority of the Spidey fanbase is still super adamant about refusing to refer to Miles as Spider-Man, so it seems like Insomniac went overboard with the inclusivity stuff specifically to phase out and piss off those types of fans

    Feels to me they got more racist than the fans themselves

    If anything this is the first Spider-Man in modern pop culture to be referred to as Spider-Man other than Peter

    The alternative is “Kid Arachnid”

    Miles is Spider-Man. ITSV movies kinda preach the same thing. There’s thousands of spider-men + the “anyone can wear the mask” message

    That's why I'm saying he's a proper character so far

    There just wasn't much stuff to be done in-game

    But overall as a character - he's a good spiderman

    Something the kids really can relate to as their spiderman

    You gotta respect them for this lmao. They don’t want those s***bags playing their game anyway.

    People hated MJ missions so they doubled down and made them some of the best missions in this game. People hated the pride flags in the first game so they added even more and included a ton of gay characters.

    The ONLY things I don’t like about this game are that the third act was rushed and I think adding a THIRD spider person is a bit much. They should just focus on Miles.

    Yeah I like that they did that to piss of those type of ignorant fans. But I don’t like that they doubled down on the MJ missions because that was actually a valid criticism that pretty much everyone had with the first game, and doubling down on it directly hurt the quality of the sequel.

    The issue isn’t MJ the character, the issue is that her missions are boring, stop all momentum, and people are playing a Spider-Man game to play as Spider-Man, or at the very least a superhero. Also it creates some cognitive dissonance because the two Spider-Men are using all of these combos and moves to take down enemies, meanwhile MJ is running around just one-shotting all of these trained professional assassins.

    I think we have four playable Spider characters moving forward:

    Peter, Miles, Venom, and Silk

    I don’t think we’ll play as all of those in one game, so we’ll most likely either get another Miles spin-off with the latter two characters playable (or at the least just Silk), or we’ll get a spin-off Venom game, but I do think that character will be playable in Spider-Man 3 regardless

    Also, idk if y’all saw this, but Brian Inthihar (creative director at Insomniac) said that the studio views Spider-Man PS4/Miles Morales as Iron Man, Spider-Man 2 as Civil War, and the next game moving forward as Endgame.

    So it’s possible that the third (and potentially final) entry will have more characters than we can even imagine right now

    He actually never cited Endgame specifically. Full quote:

    "If Spider-Man 1 was like our Iron Man, and Spider-Man 2 was like a Civil War... where logically do we go from there? It could be pretty epic."

    Hinting at Endgame would mean Peter is set to die which would be a HORRIBLE direction to go, so I hope they don’t do that.

    Oracle was in a wheelchair in Arkham series and you don't play as her

    You don't play a section with Gordon neither

    I'm just saying

    So this trilogy would end up being Miles’s origin story similarly to how the MCU’s Spider-Man trilogy was Peter’s origin story

    This is a diff interview than the one I saw so he has made this a***ogy more than once. Big L if they kill Peter, but it is what it is.

    I think they can’t do the dual Spider-Man thing forever and it doesn’t seem like the third game will be their last Spidey game, so it makes sense that Pete will either have to die or completely retire at some point in this universe

    Green Goblin is Peter's villain they won't do that arc without him

    As long as this is true I’m good . Goblin needs to be their most elaborate boss battle

    And the Miles takeover continues. First he became the main Spider-Man in the animated films, now he’s the main video game Spidey, next he’ll make his live action debut and replace Holland

    I love to see it

    Yeah that’s great but either way if it’s going to be a black main character they need more black writers than they currently have . I feel like this is a fair ask . There is no point in doing a black character that feels more like a caricature product qthan a human being . I apply this to the movies too

    just PLEASE hire black writers insomniac

    Exactly this is why I’m lamenting it . I don’t care about this Peter much I just think overall they are more in their element with white characters because they are white

    why tf they bringing in Silk already if they cant do dual spider mans? We will still have two, just different ones
