Spiderman New York seems too clean

After having played for a couple of hours, I am curious to play more, but I don't think I like this as much as the Arkham games. The combat seems like a nice enough imitation of the Arkham system (the attack and evade buttons are too far apart, though ...), but the investigation, pre-engagement positioning and traversal gameplay is much worse.
The Arkham games had this wonderful sense of being a predator who is in full control of his surroundings. This was most obvious in the stealth encounters against enemies with guns, but it was also the framing of most other fun activities in the games. You monitored your surroundings from the shadows or from above, made a plan, and actively choose to engage with melee fights, stealth sections or puzzles. Some sections were pretty linear despite this, but the games always made it feel like you were planning your approach.
I don't get the sense of being in control of my surroundings at all in Spider-Man. The game doesn't expect me to or reward me for trying to make observations about my surroundings. I feel like I am stumbling from one decent combat encounter to the next one, without having any active part in planning the overall approach to traversal, engaging enemies or puzzles. The game doesn't provide any real options, or even any quality faked ones, which relegates the player to the role of a decision maker and button presser in a series of Arkham style combat encounters.
Way too early to say that when the game has only been out for like a day, lol.
Traversal is better in Arkham? I don't know how you could come to that conclusion. Swinging around Manhattan in spider-man is one of the best aspects of the game.
Spider-Man has amazing capabilities to traverse the world, but it is a maximalist system that emphasizes raw power. The system doesn't tie as well into the level design as in the Arkham games imo. The transitions from traversal to fighting, picking up items, and solving puzzles is less smooth. The system is also worse at facilitating a planned approach to tackling challenges, like I describe in the other post.Traversal is better in Arkham?

Isn't this a joke thread based off that Hollow Knight dethroning Super Metroid thread?

Who needs to pay for marketing when you have threads like these?Way to early to tell. People need to wait to make threads like these. Wait at least a few months until hype dies down.
No, in my opinion Arkham Asylam is still one of the best games ever made.I honestly don't think its an over statement to say this is the best superhero game ever released so far right now across all platforms.
Hopefully we will get a sequel down the road.

Spider Man is fun, but the Arkham games are WAY better in pretty much every way. Literally the only thing that Spider Man really excels in is the webslinging.
Arkham Knight is honestly unbelievable. Arkham Asylum is still the best 'Batman game' but Arkham Knight and Spider-Man are both 10/10 'superhero' games.I'd agree with that, yeah. I didn't play Arkham Knight though, so I could be missing out on something.
More and more side stuff unlocks, even later into the game. The game also feels completely different every few hours what with levelling up improving core movement and all the unlocks.Its good but no.
The side stuff is Spiderman is pretty bad and I am only a few hours in. Its open world filler from 2007.
Yep, Wonderful 101 is the best superhero game. It uniquely systemises cooperation and combos between superheroes in a way that no single player game has done.
