The Rushed Potential of Spider-Man 2
Video took me way too long to get out, hope you all enjoyed.
This game pains me sometimes because its clear insomniac cares
about the character, but they were probably rushed and sometimes their
writing for the story can be surface level which holds it back. I hope they
go all out for Marvel's Spider-Man 3.

    Honestly they shot too high from the beggining. They should've written it so that it ends with Dark Peter as the final boss. That way all the other plots have room to breathe. First game had MrNegative and Otto as main villians. Second one should've focused on Lizard and Kraven. Also a quote from a legend "A rushed game is forever bad. A delayed game is eventually good"

    36:20 you hit the nail on the head to what’s missing and the Web of Shadows clips hits that home. Also, gotta say: the most painful part about the symbiote gameplay is… *It will be another generation** *AT BEST* before we get another interpretation of the symbiote suit. *And I don’t mean game gen; I mean LITERALLY a generation if we’re lucky since Sony has an iron-grip on Spider-Man’s IP.

    I thought I was the only one that realized these plot flaws, but it seems everyone did. You captured everything I saw as plot holes, and you demonstrated evry frustration I had with the Venom plot and Peter's symbiote arc. In my opinion, the game is a rushed masterpiece. I'd give it an 8.5, would have been a 10 if they went with whst you suggested as story fixes.

    Honestly Kraven made this game so much better, glad he was in it, as soon as there was a cutscene my mind begged it wasn’t another mission. That one in Normans millionaire apartment thing was beyond pain, I don’t like searching how to complete stuff because it defines of the point of a challenge, but I was in it for at least 40 minutes before searching it up on UA-cam. I enjoyed this game just a tad bit more than the first, it’s close, Harry was probably one of my favourite characters in this game, as well as Kraven, they got everything for Kraven spot on.

    For the first part on Peter being quote on quote stabbed easily listen it wasn’t easy the reason why Peter was caught off guard was because he was already fighting before prior to reaching Kraven and also he is going through so much his powers won’t be at its fullest obviously and don’t give me bs saying it shouldnt because it should and yes it has for example in Ramis Spider-Man 2 Peter was struggling mentally which hindered his powers making it to where he couldn’t use them Spider-Man’s emotional state is important account for that before saying he is nerfed

Probably easily get mad about woke stuff in the game, with no actual merit or criticism on how representation is handled in the game (which I decided to delete in my video) bc I think the way they do it is unnatural and corny. They probably say MJ was a self insert blah blah. But those are the loudest fans on social media which they definitely see. So it wouldn’t surprise me at all for them to be a lot more reserved from the fans who actually want to see new ideas and for them to make a better game.

    One of my biggest gripes with the story is the lack of the rest of the marvel universe being involved. The symbiote invasion is huge and the fact that nobody seems to care bothers me. The big argument for why there were no Avengers is that "Its Spider-Man game" and I agree. I think the solution is to not have Peter feel so washed out, and make it so the Avengers come in and arent at all equipped to deal with this. They lose and Peter and Miles still have to save the day and it would make their victory more impactful.

    Man look I liked playing as venom tbh. It was a fun time and killing Kraven was great, but end of the day I’ve already played Ultimate Spider-Man and fought Wolverine. I’ve played Spider-Man Friend or Foe. Playing as Venom took away what could’ve been an epic fight in Oscorp that leads to the streets of NY with Miles joining in. I mean look at 15:40. Peter is wearing a mask but we see a look go from “shock” to “alright it is what it is. Let’s go” And it was taken from us. I wanted to fight Venom normally to test our strength. Fight him normally and feel outmatched. Then Miles comes to even the odds. It’ll make the fight with the Anti-Venom that much better because we’ll know how it feels without it. Same with Kraven. Let me fight him normally and feel the sense that perhaps we underestimated this random hunter. Then the symbiote comes along and we feel its power. The player feels drawn to the symbiote. We as a player don’t wanna let it go. We like the tendrils. The surge. We like the power. We don’t wanna hold back. And Kraven notices too. Could’ve been much better boss fights
