Insomniac continue to follow it's winning streak with a very safe sequel that improves upon the first entry in many ways.

I would have loved to see more traversal changes but I can't complain about what we got as it addressed many of its issues. You actually get speed right after a dive now and things like swing assist options and extra abilities make you feel more in control. It's a step in the direction I wanted them to take with traversal. I hope they only raise the skill ceiling to keep people coming back to learn more.

In terms of story and characters. Whilst it didn't get me emotionally like the first one did. Miles and Pete are amazing together and my god I adored Kraven. Never cared for that villain until now. I also get they wanted a unique symbiote story but not even trying an Eddie Brock was disappointing. Harry just wasn't an entertaining enough character for Venom in my opinion. The symbiote/venom part of the story was easily the weakest. MJ had her cool moments but overall I just didn't care for her that much. Pete and MJ's relationship just isn't convincing to me.

And speaking of MJ, no fewer MJ sequences huh? Good for them to double down and try to make us enjoy playing as her but I still believe they are too a jarring change of pace and hurt the game's replayability. I still would rather replay this game than the first due to the Miles & MJ sequences but damn I still don't enjoy these parts.

ALOOT more I could talk about but to keep it short I love this game very much and cannot wait for new game plus!!
