This game is a technical marvel and runs like an absolute dream, and is infectiously fun enough to get me to finish every bit of content so that when I finished the main story I cashed in the platinum trophy. I don’t like how restrictive they made the gadget system, and I feel like the fact that it’s a video game hurts the story a little. Like Peter turning into anti venom was solely because you spend all your skill tree points doing symbiote skills and the game doesn’t want you to feel like you wasted your time, so they go “this suit does all the stuff the venom suit does, but without the evil part!” Also, Miles’s role was fumbled in the story. It feels like he didn’t have as much of a stake in it as Peter, which sucks considering he’s the co-lead. Hopefully since he’s the main character of the third game, he’ll get a better chance to shine.
