Noo, don't touch it. His style should be unique and less restricted/stiff/traditional.
I like the animation touch that Miles actually flails when he releases from his sling, compared to how more naturally Pete's was in the PS4 release. Hoping that as the game goes along they actually include it in the animation the Miles gets more confident in his swinging.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales announced for PS5 (Holiday 2020)
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
I'm really not ready to transition over to Miles as the protagonist yet. What about the Harry and Norman teases from the end of the first game? Are we just letting that plotline drop?
That could be a sideplot or some sort of 3rd game thing with Venom and the like.
Unless Venom is something that incapacitates Peter in this game...
I mean, this is basically a Gaiden Game/Midquel. They're obviously going to follow up on the Osborn storyline in the numbered sequel.
Yeah either way. I'm so excited. Can't believe the mad lads are doing it. Launching with Spidey was my breaking point... and they did it
Thats not what a cross-gen game is though. I know what you are implying, but there is a pretty clear cut definition on what a cross-gen game is.
Also, you said:
I'm saying thats presumptuous.^ Engines are iterative and just because the foundation of it was built on the PS4 doesn't mean this new game being made and released on the PS5 can & should be released on the PS4 even when we don't have a clue if it would be able to run on a PS4 lol
It would be really, really shitty to have Miles fight Venom-Harry. He has no history with the Osborns or Harry - Peter has to be the one who takes Norman down and saves his best friend. Miles can obviously be involved, but that's Peter's story, not his.
Hopefully it's sooner rather than later. :/
Yeah, I think I'd actually prefer a smaller experience this close to to the last one. I'm all for a tighter experience. Plus imagine how much better a full fledged sequel would be after getting used to the PS5 with this under their belt.
I was thinking more along the lines of Miles taking down Peter.
But I agree, I'd want the Osborn saga to be Peter's story in his own game.
I meant that Peter would probably be playable for parts of the game just like vice-versa in SpideyPS4.

Holy shit at the density. This makes me laugh harder at the "its like a PS4 game" responses. I think its now more a testament to how good Spidey PS4 looked lmao
Man, that 4K trailer made all the difference. The poor stream quality really hurt the visual display of this game. I was like, I know this is a next--gen game, but I have a hard time making out the details that demonstrate that. The direct-feed footage rectifies all of that.
I'm super excited for this. Mile Morales is an awesome spider-man, also "Into The Spiderverse" is definitely in my top 5 super hero movies of all time.

Oh right, PS4 Spidey has appeared in the 616 universe a couple times, hasn't he?
Oh it is definitely the same map under the snow.
The number of vehicles is greatly increased.
It is definitely more a 1.5 but they had enough time to make it as long as the first one. They will probably duplicates side missions for it.
My point is just to say that a game of this caliber is very welcome at launch, even if it is "just" a 1.5.
Just basically one arc but it set up Peter liking the design of Miles' costume and "Superior" Spider-Man setting up either a jailbreak or a body swap for the game's version of Doc Ock.
Do....do you know what a game engine actually is? Ratchet and Clank is probably running on the same engine too with upgrades for PS5.
Yep.
And people forgot a lot of dev times goes throught gameplay. Here, combat and especially swinging.
And the map is already there too. Adding snow to it isn't that easy but it is incomparable too making a new map.
A lot of works is already done.
With that being said, nothing of what we saw is impossible to make on PS4.
They really missed the opportunity to show a big increase of free fall and swinging speed.
i absolutely love what they've done with the colors. it looks so much more distinct and comic book-y than the original game

and yeah the animation work as a whole looks like a step up as well, no real surprise there

I'm assuming some of the leaks were true and they are putting more stock into animation/swinging, physics, making the map much bigger, improve AI- - all over graphical fidelity. Just seems like a natural evolution and ideally you would want to set all that up before you do the "full-fledged" sequel.
And not to say it looks bad. The 4k upgrade alone is probably a big thing + density + particle/snow/weather effects.
I don't know about people saying it not being a "full fledged" sequel or its going to be a smaller experience. I'm asumming its going to be just as big and meaty as S1. The plot of us growing up with Miles to be his own full fledged Spiderman
Then the sequel to this being a co-op spidey game *pipe dreams*
Because if Miles is the main character they're not gonna have him fight Norman Osborn or rescue Harry. That's Peter's story, not Miles'.
So either they're abandoning that arc entirely or we have to wait for a third game to get to it. I don't want to wait another four or five years for the setup I already GOT to get paid off.
No...this is a Miles game, they'll pick up those plotlines in the next one. Probably some small developments and teases in this. I doubt Peter is like barely in it, maybe even playable in some parts who knows.
What a launch title, wow. Looking forward to this. Spider-Man may have been the best game of this gen.
It's part of the narrative, which is neat. In Spider-Geddon, Insomniac Peter meets Miles from the comics and decides to use the design of his costume for his Miles. I think it's one of the few instances ever of the main canon interpretation of a character directly influencing a "non-canon" counterpart through the story. Hopefully we get a cutscene or something of Peter explaining the events of Spider-Geddon to Miles.
Yeah I'm with you on this being a meaty package. The world is already set up in SM1. They just need to do more auxiliary touches and improve the scope, but I expect this to be about the same length as the first game.

Yeah, it actually looks like Manhattan with all of those cars. There were plenty in the PS4 game at once, but not like this. The first game could also render a decent amount of people but if they're gonna pull off Christmas in Manhattan and the crowds associated with that, this console was probably a god send. If Macy Gray doesn't show up singing during a parade, no buy from me.
What are the chances we get DLC over many years for this game? So instead of making a Spider-man 2, they just expand on this one? There's really no point in making Manhattan all over again unless they actually feel this one isn't up to snuff. That'd save on disc space too since you don't need two completely separate game files that share almost all of the same assets.
Marvel comics: how about a spider-man miles morales game, Iron man VR game and an Avengers game for 2020
WB games: more batman.
