Open-world action games like this always seem to suck me in. I knew I was going to end up platinum-ing this game roughly an hour into it. But honestly, a lot of this game felt a little one-dimensional. The story was largely forgettable. The puzzles felt pointless. Missions and collectibles felt very rinse wash repeat, even after only the second one. But the combat and movement were just so damn good I couldn't put it down. Web-slinging around New York is so fun and addicting. Combat is never too challenging, but always rewarding, and it feels so kinetic and substantial when you hit an enemy. It's too bad the rest of the game didn't quite match those two peaks.
