You have to press to dodge in FO too? And you can parry enemy saber attacks if you time it right.

Yes you press triangle once to close distance then you just mash square until they’re knocked out, kick and punch is literally the same button.

Yes there’s gadgets and with Miles you got the Venom moves but there’s gadgets in FO… I think Survivor introduced a pistol but not positive… but even in FO you have all the force moves, force push, time freeze, you can throw your lightsaber at the enemy.

But for both games your mostly just mashing one button for combat.

I’ve played both Spider-Man and Miles Morales on the hardest difficulty and 100% both of them, as well as 100% Fallen Order on the hardest difficulty. When it comes to combat, they’re pretty much the same.

Then you know you can't beat the games just by hitting the square button. Having one button for attacks doesn't necessarily = repetitive and these games don't even have that. Square/X functions as the "light attack", Triangle/Y functions as the "heavy attack". You're supposed to mix them up, dodge and use gadgets/abilities

Arkham games had a similar setup, press X/square until the counter indicator appears and you have to press Y/triangle. They can't dedicate a separate input for punches and kicks when there's limited buttons on a controller and they need to map a dodge, jump, gadgets etc. I don't get why you're saying this makes those Star Wars games and Spiderman the same, pretty much every action adventure game featuring melee combat is setup this way

Both Jedi fallen order and spider man are tedious it’s okay

About to replay the first game and Miles Morales again one more time

And I’m going to use the Spiderverse suits

Replayed the campaign for the first game, one of the weak points of the plot is that almost every villain has the same has a disease looking for cure origin story.

maybe in terms of melee or hack n slash v beat em up, but i wouldn't say combat or gameplay are the same

either way, i have far more fun in the spidey games vs jedi, and spidey has more offerings. jedi plays it safe and they still f*** up

One of the Weak points

Just one

ngl I was pretty smacked for the majority of my miles playthrough so gonna have to run it back for sure. I do remember enjoying it though, shorter length rlly worked well

maybe I need to play it smacked

Oh yeah definitely don’t do it sober, don’t torture yourself like that. Like a medium level of smacked is ideal

I been playing these games wrong

Wait why

Cause the spider man games are extremely tedious

if you’re trying to 100% the game and do all the little side activities and get the collectibles, then I’d consider that aspect tedious. But the main missions and story I wouldn’t consider tedious at all

For me the main story cool but when I try to do even a little side content to level up and get suits its all tedious stuff to me . I respect that people love swinging around, completionist and living in the world but to me there is not much to the world.

I respect it though

Some of my favorite shots I took in my most recent playthrough

I feel like MIles Morales was a bit better in that regard, for me it was fairly easy to 100% compared to the first game (that one I didnt even want to play after the main story) since usually I never even bother trying to get those platinum trophies

Hopefully this new one will be an even bigger step in the right direction with all the side content and activities

Come to Queens then

They boutta get mad if I keep talking spiderman in the Zelda thread

Spider man content outside of the story is

LETTUCE PRAY

Street Fighter VI open world feels more alive than Spider Man 1

So close to 100% the first game on PS5. Just one more area to clear

im the opposite lol, i cared more about everything besides the story

I mean the story also to me wasnt hot but the side content was lacking. It was repetitive to take down hideouts but I did it. I am saying side quest wise they need to work on that content and more things to do that take you around town rather than go to a location beat people up or swing through hoops
