I had some pretty dumb stuff considering what they did in the first game.
Overall it is an incredibly fun game. From the first minute of playing, it throws you right into a devastating fight with Sandman and from that point on, it is almost non stop. I love how this takes full advantage of the SSD and blasts you through the city and new locations (that mystic arts sequence was so cool).
I really enjoyed watching Peter slowly loose his shit while seeing everyone around him fall apart, and seeing the complete ingnorance in Peter about the situation and the manipulation of the symbiote is fascinating. The effect it has on Harry is no exception to that either. There is a point where it seems like they are chosen family, but everything is falling apart completely.
I am so happy we get to play as venom, but my complaint is WHY THE FUCK IS HE NOT A PLAYABLE CHARACTER POST STORY?!
Also why the common symbiote enemies so hard to defeat without the anti-venom suit?
Also this did make me wonder where the Avengers are during all of this. Like, basically All of New York is consumed in symbiote goo, it's like a full on apocalypse and they are nowhere to be seen.
So yea it has it's very obvious flaws and not as good as the first one but still fucking amazing nonetheless. And Yuri's voice acting is just 🤌
The side missions dotted around the map don't seem like anything new, just a copy and paste of the past 2 games for the most part

The first ever Mario game I owned and played. First ever game I 100% completed. It blew my mind as a kid, went in with no expectations and when I went through the warp pipe to the other dimension with the evil ink Mario that is so anxiety inducing... Fuck yea I loved it. Just should've had more playable characters and a tad more variety in power-ups.

Combat is perfect, traversal is perfect, I like the story a lot, but it's missing a lot, just feels a bit empty. The main problem is pacing. The first and last 20 minutes are where it's at but pretty much everything else feels like side missions and is very sluggish and feels like a grind. They definitely put most of their focus into the map, because the explorable land is perfect. I really love this but I hope the sequel (should it happen) fixes the narrative elements.
