Dan Slott can huff my shorts, but I will still be excited for this game. Dammit.

It's not too uncommon for major releases to have dozens of writers for quests, dialogue, codex entries etc. in addition to the narrative directors and story leads. What's really surprising is that it apparently took four writers to come up with the plot of Far Cry 5.

He’s actually ok and gave us one of the greatest spider-man moments in the history of the character so as long as someone reigns him in of some of his stupider ideas he’ll do fine.

His ideas are good until he tries to make it a big thing. Superior Sadie was great but then he randomly made him kill people and dumbed the Avengers down so they wouldn't discover that he's not Parker. Spider Verse was basically all fanfic, no good ending. He did his best to fix the mess of one more day but eh...

Yea I agree he's shat the bed a few times but he's also hit some real home runs, so I'm trusting with another pro like Gage there to say 'hey maybe we should finish this idea before we move on to the next cool thing you want to do' it'll be better.

My only reservation about this game is that I hate Electro's design. I mean Electro's designs are almost always poo poo but this one in particular stands out.

I still hate the white spiderman logo. It just looks like bird poo poo for some reason. I hope it like the Batman games and alt costumes appear in cutscenes so I never have to see it.

The press kit for Spider-Man is out, it includes blueprints for Spider-Man's suit...what if one of the inspirations for that giant gently caress-off spider is just a bird poo poo stain on a window high up?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eKU9jvas7s

It does when he used his dickishness on Twitter to go after people who didn't like Spider-Verse. Or when he used Spider-Verse to call fans who were upset that he treated characters he didn't create with no respect by essentially pissing on their graves as his vampire killer murdered them and then making fun of the upset fans in the same issue. He's basically a manchild and I'm glad he's not writing ASM anymore. I apparently wasn't the only one because none of the comic shops around here sold much ASM when he was still on the book.

I'm really digging the design on the Velocity costume. I hope it's easy to get because I ain't preordering poo poo and it's probably too late to preorder anyway

Funky Valentine posted:My only reservation about this game is that I hate Electro's design. Electro has been an angry bald guy with hosed up facial scars and a rad vest for a long time in the comics. They did away with his old design ages ago but yeah, it's kind of boring that two bald guys are in the assortment of villains. Really I'm just bored of seeing Vulture/Rhino/Shocker so I hope some crazier villains like Sandman (badass Sandman a la Ditko era) and maybe a spinoff goblin like Hobgoblin appear.

Mysterio please, Insomniac. I don't know if he's been confirmed yet and a Google search was inconclusive.

What other designs in the world of Spider-Man did Ditko miss the mark on? Oh right, none of them. Electro's original costume is still the best. No one has yet topped Starfish Face. On that note, good on Insomniac for giving Electro yellow electricity. Kinda sad when it's coloured blue because electricity comes in many colours (all, potentially ((pun intended))) and yellow is part of the character's colour scheme. If Magneto's magnetism can be purple, Electro's electricity can be yellow.

Gotta save him for the sequel. Also maybe something to do with the movie, maybe not wanting to overshadow it.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SpidermanPS4/comments/9cpmpr/lil_bit_of_combat_for_yall/ a costume spoiler or two, but nothing major. i am just shocked how cool/weird it looks. also it looks like i can go back to my killer spider man play style from 2.

Anita Dickinme posted:How did they not put in Venom, though? It's understandable since Venom is a heavy character to put in your game revival of a classic franchise and would overtake so much of the rogues gallery. Venom also leads to more symbiote poo poo and that in turn leads to bad storylines/characters. If anything, I hope they pull the rug out and we're in the Anti-Venom era with reformed Brock, or Mac Gargan inherits the symbiote midway as a curveball nod to the comics.

I've kept away from most discussion but I don't think this has been confirmed yet.

I guess the spider on the chest is a dragon (not a game spoiler) now thanks to the comics?

I don't think I know half as much about spider-man as anyone on these last 2 pages but that character's inclusion kind of seemed like a gimme. I do understand leaving venom (and maybe the green goblin?) for a sequel but as far as unrevealed big bads go , that's a pretty easy guess

Yeah I agree and really Venom and Carnage are the only ones needed so if they hop into the game with a DLC after the movie drops I’ll be happy. But if I have to wait 2-3 years for them to come out as the main antagonist in the sequel I guess that’s cool.
