This game design looks sooo outdated compared to type of games that are releasing now.

If that means it doesn't take 12 hours to get good, I'll take it.

That's subjective.
Talking strictly about game design here. Looks like something from 2009.

Kinda like Elden Ring and Dark Souls? That’s more like a positive

It will ran at 60fps, that is next gen

Odd complaint when a huge number of games aren't doing things drastically different with the overall design. Yet many are still great.

In what way?

Going by that logic, NMS is a generation ahead of Starfield when it comes to exploration.
For example.

I agree, game design is very outdated, it definitely needs more loading screens like recent games.
Outdated game design like instantaneous loading from map to gameplay, fast character switching, those belong to bygone cartridge era

They really should go “Far from home” route and set this game somewhere else than NY. It just looks too similar to the first 2.

Spidey 3 in Tokyo would be rad

You're talking visuals only?
That's fucking rich coming from a guy with a zelda avatar
Obviously there's an image quality improvement from the first, but I guess if you're used to cell shaded cartoon games at 30fps every last and current gen game with more realistic graphics start all looking the same

That might actually be a purchase for me, if only because of Tokyo

Greg and Blessings grindr role play?
Trailer got me hyped. Adding the extra boroughs and the quality of life stuff for the side quests etc.
Also, the amount of traffic and overall hustle and bustle of new York looks dope!

This game is nothing like those games.
A couple of recent examples:
Elden Ring: Open world exploration guided by world design.
Starfield: a few button presses changes your planet. Instant switching of biomes. There is a loading screen but it's fast enough. Gives you very good visual variety.
Not saying Spiderman 2 should copy those two. It's not possible within the IP. But a fresh take to world design or maybe how quests are handled would be much appreciated. As of now it's a cool game but overly familiar.

Funny you mention muddy, that's exactly what I see when I look at Zelda's graphicsYes go on attack Zelda, make sure no one is talking about Spider-man now, muddy the water for King Jim

Who is talking about Zelda? Go to the offical TOTK thread and throw up all over there, Nintendo games were never graphically or technologically impressive but the ONLY thing Sony had going for it this past decade, take that away what do you have left?Funny you mention muddy, that's exactly what I see when I look at Zelda's graphics

latest Trailer looks much better. What I perceived as "bad" in the first trailer, had less to do with graphic performance than poor choices in art direction.
I still don't understand why the main UI colors seem to be pink and cyan, because they don't match with the classic spider man colors nor with the overly yellow tinted chase scene from the first trailer.
The chase seemed off because they made NY look like a swamp, maybe it's to symbolize Kravens jungle vibe, but the whole scene made it seem like it's set in some swampy part of florida - just felt off.

Definitely, only graphics in the past decade. No gameplay, no stories, no voicework, no immersive audio. Basically Sony's been selling paintings for the last decade and according to you they aren't even that impressive. lol
It's ok to have preferences, no one's forcing you to like what you clearly don't. If you prefer the cartoony shit with the same 3 or 4 protagonists in every single game narrated in baby babble speech, that's ok. But you don't get to call out games for an aspect you preferred ones are 5 gens behind

Yeah, because one is a demo at only 30 FPS. The other is a full-fledged game running at 60 FPS. lol

THAT is your example of "modern-day game designs?" Button presses on a menu to fast travel and loading screens?!
At least put some effort in your trolling man. This is too obvious

How is this trolling?
Why are you taking instant switching of biomes for granted?
Why don't Insomniac make it if it were so easy?

- There is no INSTANT switching of biomes in Starfield lol.
- There IS instant switching of biomes/neighborhoods in Spider-Man 2, which Insomniac literally showed today.

Many of nintendo games are also aimed at having a skill level for a children. many people love them cause it puts a smile on their face something i always here from nintendo fans. For me sony has the vastly better gameplay, and i don't like uncharted franchise lolDefinitely, only graphics in the past decade. No gameplay, no stories, no voicework, no immersive audio. Basically Sony's been selling paintings for the last decade and according to you they aren't even that impressive. lol

Same city is different biomes now??
LMAO.
Nothing wrong with an old school game like this. Am sure it will be enjoyable. But don't try to act like it's something it's not.

I LOVE me some Elden Ring, but this is a weird take. ER's open world was probably one of it's weakest elements design-wise. Art direction-wise it's 11/10, but ultimately it fell pray to the same copy/pasta pit falls of all open world games.
