After 200(!) hours of playtime, I could see myself jumping right back in with another playthrough very easily. One of the best games I've ever played solely for how closely it captures the experience of playing DnD. The sheer number of options for how you want to shape your adventure is just mind boggling. Not only that, the adventuring party are some of the most well written, acted, and fully realized characters in any medium I've ever watched, read, or played.
PLEASE, if you've never played this, you owe it to yourself to at least try it. You won't regret it.

Music rating: 4.5/5. RAPHAEL GETS A PROPER VILLAIN SONG AND IT SLAPS SO HARD. The rest of the score has a very strong presence, with memorable hooks and satisfying instrumentals/vocals. Some of the battle tracks repeated a bit too much for me, but otherwise this entire soundtrack was great. Definitely going on my playlist.

The definitive Spider-Man experience. A nearly perfect game with super tight focus and understanding of Peter Parker as a character, masterfully blending years of comics, television and film into one cohesive package. The only complaint I have is that the combat can get a little samey, especially towards the end.
But you know a game is awesome when they offer you quick travel options, and you refuse to use them because it FEELS SO GOSH DANG GOOD TO SWING THROUGH NYC.
Anyways, great game lol

Music rating: 3.5/5. Very cinematic and the big moments hit when they need to, but the lack of variety keeps anything from standing out too much besides the main theme, which reminds me a bit of Raimi and Elfman's scores for the original Spider-Man movies.
