We went in spoiler-free for the most part. Game was an absolute blast with some major surprises. When we realized you could be Venom - huge! - Miles and the Mr. Negative arc, Kraven fighting Venom, etc.
We had just read King in Black, so it was like that minus Knull.
There were some side-quests I could do without. Mary Jane taking down elite combat people was laughable. The Mary Jane/Scream battle was probably the worst out-of-character dialogue I have ever heard. It was painful to get through that stuff.
That said, game was great with a really clever story. I think those faults above are risks just like they took with the rest of the game to put an Insomniac spin on it. Most of those risks paid off in my book.
If I could change one thing now: GIVE US DLC 🤪
One last point: I have a special needs brother that was able to play this game due to the accessibility controls in this game. He basically plays at about 25% of the normal game speed. I’ve never seen a game do this. Great job!

Re: Poll: One Year Later, How Would You Rate Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PS5?
@naruball no, people’s minds change when the hype wears off. Happens with a lot of things. Doesn’t mean they are hypocritical.
I can’t think of a better PS5 game to get GOTY, but Zelda TOTK was better than this in my book. Still really enjoyed it though.

@naruball or this is a poll about how we feel about the game a year later.
Everyone was more hyped about it last year.
