It looks absolutely amazing. On the one hand I really want to get it because it looks so good and seems to push the PS5, but on the other hand I didn’t manage to get through the first Spiderman game nor Miles Morales.

My main issue with those games is the combat system. There is just too much going on and there are too many button combo’s to remember. This makes combat feel like a chore and it never really flows right.

Those games have such a great story. I would look into dropping the difficulty and giving them another go. Don't let the mechanics get in the way of your enjoyment. I do agree though. The jump in complexity from 1 to MM was a bit much for me to wrap my head around.

I liked the first one, but that's the issue I had with MM. I think I just got tired of having to remember to use this ability for this kind of enemy, and this one for that kind...it got annoying.

[–] BorgDrone@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Exactly my issue. No problems with Spiderman 2 though.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Good to know. I'll probably try it out eventually when it's on sale.

[–] dpkonofa@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I feel like that just means that you need to drop the difficulty and get some practice. Not to “get gud” you or anything but I beat it once already and now I’m playing on Ultimate and the flow is so tight it’s insane. It’s incredibly well done but you have to be good to pay attention to everything. It’s like DooM Eternal in terms of fun management.

I got Spiderman 2 and it’s great. I mainly had this issue when I picked up Miles Morales after I hadn’t played it for a while. Just too many combo’s to remember. No issues so far in Spiderman 2 and I’v already unlocked the majority of the skills tree and gadgets.
