So he'll be sidelined for the next spin off game again and will return for Spider-Man 3. Makes sense.

Maybe Spider-Man 3 will be positioned as the whole "I have to come back one last time..." thing and that'll be the finale of the series.

100% this.

if youve played all the way to the end of Spiderman 2 PS5 The whole conflict setup for the next part of the story is 100% driven by Peter. Norman sure as shit isnt angry with Miles.

if I had to guess therell be a side game with Miles as the lead and probably Silk

Peter was struggling with Mays death, holding down a job, trying to save the house and keep up his relationship with MJ to the point he had a breakdown once he got the symbiote suit. Let him relax for a bit and focus on what he wants to do, Miles can pick up the slack on his own. Pete did for 8 years.

No. He took a break from being Spider-man to focus on being Peter Parker. They did make it sound like a temporary thing.

I don't see anything wrong with that. I haven't played the game but if they decide to turn Peter into a family man, then that's good for his character development.

Good tbh.

As someone who's primary exposure to comics was post-Crisis/pre-New52 DC, one of my favorite Superhero tropes is the main guy getting older/retiring/dying and their protege growing into the role. It goes so far to make the world feel lived in. You've got this living, constantly evolving history that makes it all feel so alive and interesting. <_<

i feel like most of the complaining comes from people that don't even actually read the comics, their only exposure being maybe the spiderman show in the 90s, and the live action movies

It's so dumb.

The Arkham games also tried to move Batman forward and give him an ending.

Gotham Knights is completely about Batman not being around and his apprentices taking over.

The advantage these games have (movies too really) is that they're not comic books that are intended to continue forever. They can plan our narratives and character arcs that have solid endings and the universe can continue on (which can also change up gameplay opportunities as well).

In this case it's extra stupid because it's fucking obvious to anyone with half a brain that Peter Parker isn't done being Spider-man even if he wants to be.

Peter is smarter, has better gadgets, and...spoilers...

He gains the anti-venom suit which offers all the abilities of the symbiote suit but with no drawbacks.

Which means Pete is definitely much, much, much stronger than Miles and outclasses him in every possible way.

From what I remember reading in the comics:

- strength (PP is the physically strongest Spider Totem by far, and actually one of the strongest Marvel heroes. He just holds back a lot to keep from fucking people up too much).

- spider sense. At some point in the future I remember reading a comic where PP's spider sense got so good that it practically gave him clairvoyance.

- experience.
Oh yeah, Peter has fucking great powers! The Spider Totems are weird, but that just happens in comic books and with enough time. You get weird stuff like that.

Sometimes I wonder if some of those people read comics. Fans dont actually want their favorite characters to die, be replaced or retire like they do in animes passing of the torch trope.

Thats why the same heroes have been active now for decades and arent going anywhere. Ever. They may be replaced, retire or die even for a while but theyre always come back because they just arent replaceable. Peter especially.

Hell doing just that is why the MCU is currently in the gutter, realizing the mistake they made trying to do as youve described and are now course correcting.

Tbh this isn't a skin colour issue (at least not with the sane people). It's happened before when a main character got shafted. Remember Joel? Even way back then when Snake was replaced with Raiden, the outcry was huge in the fanbase >_>

Pete developed the wing suit, he has the spider arms, he made hologram technology on a shoestring budget. Miles has all his gadgets, likely, that he made. Pete is the smart one making their tools, Miles is just using them.

Alright, so I didn't want to touch this topic until I fully completed Spider-Man 2. And now that I have, I feel like it's an asshole move to say that in a tweet. Because (Spider-Man 2 spoilers) That's literally what is revealed at the end of Spider-Man 2. As the game went on, they were hinting at Peter wanting to let Miles take over. But it wasn't until the scene right before the end credits where they actually confirmed it. Why post that flat out in a tweet when the game has only been out for 2 weeks.

That said though, this will definitely be a temporary thing. This game set up multiple big villains for the future. So Peter will be back.

Peter not being Spider-Man is just so incredibly unlike the character that is just bugs me. It's practically a compulsion, a disease or a drug. Pete is always haunted by his one mistake the mistakes that came after that, ones that push him to push himself into doing what he does. He can't stop himself, and likely never will. So for him to lend the 'job' to Miles just doesn't really make sense to me.

With great power comes great responsibility. Unless he dies or loses his power, he's got that great power. And therein lies the issue. With it, comes that great responsibility that he will ALWAYS bare. Otherwise he's betraying the one thing he's held closest to his heart after Ben's death. He's temporarily quit being Spidey before, but until he's unable to, he will always have to be Spidey. Because he is unable to not be him.

Anyway, I want Superior Spider-Man to be adapted into this series.

And that's exactly what's going to happen, because (major Spider-Man 2 spoilers!) The game sets up a lot of villains that Miles isn't going to be able to handle alone. Green Goblin, the return of Doc Ock, the Chameleon, Ana (Raven's daughter) as the new Kraven, and worst of all, Carnage. Peter wants to stop being Spider-Man, but the onslaught of villains isn't going to let him rest for long.

Although they may be able to delay Peter's return for a while if a certain scene means that we'll be seeing Silk (another Spider-Man) in this universe too.

Just rolled credits and this complaint cracks me up even more. Like the literal mid credits scene is Doc Ock saying he is writing the final chapter.

Peter will be back for Spider-Man 3 and that will likely be considered the finale of Insomniac's Spider-Man story. Everything is being built up for that.

She is shot and killed at the end of her phone call with Kraven. That's why Peter and Ganke know they're all dead.

I'm more curious about what's between now and SM3. I wonder if they'll bother with the DLC episodes or just go right to the spin-offs.

Cindy Moon and Miles Morales seem like a lock in.

Maybe one for Venom as well but the only real cliff hanger for that left seemed to be Carnage. Didn't seem like they left any loose ends for Venom but they could always have Eddie Brock somehow find the original symbiote or something.

Either way I think Carnage will be the main villain for a spin off game.

My biggest surprise actually is the lack of any hints for Gwen Stacey (outside of the Spider-Bot) thinking about it.

Kraven tells her "Let's see if you can leave Volgograd unscathed" and then a gunshot goes off and the call abruptly ends, she is deceased unless they pull a "she survived" scenario, which seems unlikely given how ruthless Kraven is portrayed to be.

Isn't she already dead in this universe? Vaguely remembering some dialogue in the first game referencing Peter's first fight with The Lizard and her death.

Tbh, I don't mind Gwen, and my greed would actually love to throw in as many spider totems as possible (Madam Webs, random homeless child, and J.J.J's niece fuck yeah), but I'd really rather not pull any from the multiverse.
