Some are easier than others and overall difficulty varies wildly with suit powers, suit mods, and gadget use. If you're having trouble with one I'd hold off until you unlock more stuff. As you level up at certain points your melee attacks will do more damage and you'll have more health too.
Awesome! Glad to hear that.
Based on guides I've read, if you save up base, crime, and challenge tokens until the end (when all the upgrades and suit locks are available) and do a manual save, buy all upgrades of one type, pop the trophy, reload, repeat for each gadget/suit you can get the platinum without going the extra mile. I'm curious about the challenges in the crime stuff since I'm not sure I completed all the side objectives in the earliest ones so if I'm missing crime tokens from that I'm going to be really bummed out. Trophy guides say no trophy is missable though so maybe I'm good?
answering the question:
Hmm I played the demo at expos so had some decent understanding of the movement system already. What's making swinging better for me now is the more dangerous city and the constant increases in speed whenever I level up. I'm at level 32 now and swinging at speed, especially during missions or combat, is just phenomenal. You feel REALLY agile. I felt pretty lithe but not Spider-Man agile earlier in the game
That's a bit of a shame, we've already seen him in a similar role a decade prior. At least it seems pretty well told.
Okay cool. I wasn't sure how how uniform they were. I'll hold off and do more story missions and then go back to them. mostly just wanted to grind some of the tokens for unlocks.
There's one cutscene towards the end when it doesn't show the costume you've selected.
Yes! Like each act feels like a graphic novel story line and hits all the right beats. I wish I was at home so I could finish it! Is this an Insomniac original story or did they bring in any Marvel writers to help out? I'd buy the graphic novelization of this in a heartbeat.
Looks like the insomniac costume was heavily inspired by this one.Would love to have seen this Ben Reily costume in it. Maybe they can add it in at some point for the DLC's.
Alright, cool thanks. They're interesting enough but not what I'd want an entire game to be centered around.
Yep, people were disappointed when the statue started leaking, but it was clearly a long-form Spidey story with lots of investment/development...
Yup. It's fantastic, all the suits look excellent - several look significantly better in cutscenes than in gameplay, what with the better lighting.
You get trophies for completing each. Trophy icon has the act number in roman numerals too, I believe.
Oh thanks! I didn't realize since I have notifications turned off so I wouldn't get taken out of the game.
Ah, I guess that could explain why some people didn't know. I never turned those off because I like the rewarding little feeling I get when I know I got a trophy.
Totally original story, and yes, they brought in Marvel writers to help out. Insomniac and Marvel Games' office are very close to each other, so they collaborated a lot. On top of that, they brought in Christos Gage and Dan Slott to help with the script, but the latter only for an early advisory role.
