A shockingly heartfelt and emotional story with absolutely transcendent movement mechanics. This is probably the closest thing we will get to a Gravity Rush 3. The presentation when things get trippy are fantastic and the ending has some of the most emotional acting I've seen in a videogame. Loved it way more than I was anticipating given this is a super hero game.
Why not a 5 star imo:
my only real complaint is that literally 20 seconds after one crime gets solved, another one is already popping up. Like, I get that in the third act it should feel like chaos and like the city is falling apart, but going from one copied event to another so quickly just feels crowded and not necessarily deep.
Also I didn't love the MJ/Miles stealth sections. I don't mind playing as other characters with different mechanics, and I get that they were probably trying to remind players that Spiderman is a super hero by making you play as a normal human in a world lead by super villains, but they still felt kinda clunky and padded compared to how polished everything spiderman was.
