#79 LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: Universe in Peril (Vita) - Your Fabulous No-Prize!

 

This game sure was... something I didn't expect. I've been playing LEGO games since the PS2 days and this one was the one that strayed the most from the formula with the isometric view and I didn't like it that much, at least the levels are pretty quick and the gold brick challenges straightforward. Thankfully the next Marvel one (Avengers) is more like Batman 3, that one is good.

A bit of poison on my blade, then let's go!

A bit of poison on my blade, then let's go!

A bit of poison on my blade, then let's go!

A bit of poison on my blade, then let's go!

 

Mmm, a lukewarm stein of pure, distilled Eurojank, exactly as expected from something developed by Spiders and bearing the Focus Entertainment label. While I certainly wouldn't call it a good video game by most metrics, this oddball ARPG has distinct personality at the very least, making it undeniably more interesting than most offerings in the triple-A domain. Despite the atrocious combat, painfully repetitive quest design, and multitude of bugs, GreedFall is still reasonably charming in its own way.

 

Events begin in the fictional, 18th century-style city of Serene, the "old world," where the air is thick with the smoke of both burgeoning industry and burning plague victims' bodies. A mysterious and fatal malady known as the malichor is ravaging the populace, and their only hope for a cure lies on the once secret island of Teer Fradee, a magical place inhabited by a number of indigenous tribes, who seem to be immune to the dreaded disease for unknown reasons. Thus, it rests on the shoulders of silver-tongued protagonist Legate De Sardet, and their beloved cousin Prince Constantin, to embark for New Serene—a city currently under construction on the partially colonized island—where they're tasked with governing the settlement, improving diplomatic relations with the natives and other factions on behalf of the Merchant Congregation, and ultimately discovering a remedy for the ailment that's killing even De Sardet's own mother. Among the groups to engage in political repartee with are:

 

The Bridge Alliance, a union of nations run by powerful oligarchs, and focused almost entirely on scientific advancement. Set on finding a cure for the malichor at any cost, some researchers aligned with this faction subject the local people to forcible experimentation and murder.

 

Thélème, a devoutly religious nation, long at war with the secular Bridge Alliance. Certain Inquisitors within this faction are single-minded in their pursuit of either converting or killing the island's inhabitants, to the point of committing cartoonishly evil acts. Some even believe the indigenous people are causing the malichor somehow, through worship of demonic entities.

 

Coin Guard, a prolific guild of old world mercenaries, employed by all nations for security. Their guards are everywhere, and shadowy figures inside the organization are developing their own plans for Teer Fradee in secret. A captain in this faction personally trained De Sardet in the art of combat from a young age.

 

Nauts Guild, a centuries old community of skilled sailors, providing seafaring transportation of people and supplies for the nations. Culturally, one of the most interesting groups, with many of its members having been contractually recruited into the guild as children. They've no interest in colonizing the island, instead calling the ocean their home.

 

Yecht Fradí, the various native tribes, most of whom would obviously prefer to oust the settlers from Teer Fradee. However, some see value in leading a balanced existence alongside them, while others would happily sell out the island to the foreigners (whom they call "renaigse") for profit. A mystical connection to the land makes them hardier than normal humans, and bestows some with formidable magical abilities. They speak a Proto-Celtic language I found rather enchanting, but most are also capable English speakers.

 

De Sardet is a representative of The Congregation of Merchants, a neutral faction of wealthy merchant families, so they must be clever and cautious in their dealings with everyone to avoid a diplomatic incident. Their reputation level with the factions determines who will offer help when times are desperate, impacting the game's multiple endings. Fortunately, their impressive gift of gab (which can be boosted via the Charisma attribute) allows them to talk their way out of trouble more often than not. One can opt to create either a male or female De Sardet, and neither choice leads to disappointment, as both are fully voiced by very competent actors. In fact, likely the only well-polished aspect of GreedFall is its consistently excellent voice cast, which appears to have been sourced from the same talent pool as heard in popular titles like The Witcher 3. I definitely recognized several of these performers, and the voice work was doing a LOT of heavy lifting to maintain my interest in this game. As for the soundtrack, it's adequate if unremarkable, sounding similar to royalty free music. Decent sound design overall, and I appreciated how powerful the gunshots feel.

 

Over the course of exploring the exotic island, De Sardet also befriends several companion characters, who will assist them in battle two at a time, along with offering insightful dialogue during quests. Kurt tags along from the start, being De Sardet's longtime mentor. As a captain of the Coin Guard, he's a quintessential tank, able to wear heavy armor and clobber enemies with big ol' weapons such as great swords, all the while buffing himself with potions. Shortly after, Vasco, the captain of the Naut ship which transports De Sardet to Teer Fradee, joins their quest. He prefers a more flexible approach, poisoning foes with a tainted cutlass, while firing his flintlock pistol between strikes. Later, they run into Siora, essentially a princess of the Gaís rad native clan. This spellsword wields light weapons like rapiers in tandem with various spells, including healing magic to keep the party alive. Next, a surrogate father figure from De Sardet's past, Bishop Petrus of Thélème, lends his assistance. He employs quite different magical abilities from Siora's, blasting enemies with projectiles from afar, while his penchant for plate armor makes him nearly as resilient as Kurt. Lastly, the travelers recruit Aphra, a gifted researcher from the Bridge Alliance, who favors the utilization of rifles and bombs in battle. All of them can be equipped with appropriate weapons and armor, either found in the world or purchased at shops.

 

This companion system stands out as one the best elements of GreedFall. Every party member is likeable, useful to distract baddies in combat, and they often contribute interesting information or useful dialogue options in conversations. For instance, having the charismatic Petrus at your side when dealing with Thélème can make it much easier to convince them of your position, while bringing Siora into your interactions with the Yecht Fradí helps greatly to gain their trust, besides developing a deeper understanding of their traditions. As you assist them with their personal issues, the camaraderie between De Sardet and their buddies grows, unlocking stat bonuses and eventual romance options with everyone, excluding Petrus. Romance is rarely done well in video games, and I can't say GreedFall's attempt is an exception to that, but it's a feature!

 

Companion quests are some of the more interesting excursions in the game, too; Vasco, for example, wishes to discover more about his childhood origins, before he was taken as a Naut. Meanwhile, Aphra strongly desires to learn about the local people and their customs, Petrus has ambitions to become a cardinal, Kurt is investigating shady goings on in the Coin Guard, and Siora needs assistance with a variety of tribal business. I actually quite enjoyed helping these characters, and watching their fondness for De Sardet develop. Would it have killed them to record a few more battle cry lines for your friends, though? Hearing them shout the exact same things every time an enemy comes into proximity gets old fast, and their quotes are now permanently burnt into my brain as a result.

 

Regarding the narrative, I found myself most invested in uncovering the subplot mysteries surrounding De Sardet's true origins and Constantin's actions as governor of New Serene. The latter is a particularly fascinating and multilayered character, whom I could easily empathize with. Whether the main story and its message about the consequences of not living in harmony with the environment sticks the landing is another matter, and I'm not convinced the writers are always equipped to handle the heavy subject matter. It treads on tropey territory at times, with the noble savage stuff and what have you, although there are definitely memorable moments and some excellent dialogue. I also think its critiques of colonialism would've landed more forcefully if the Yecht Fradí weren't so powerful. It's just hard to feel as bad as I should when witnessing a fleeing native get shot in the back by a bigoted Bridge Alliance soldier, when said native not only survives the wound, but then proceeds to summon vine tendrils and a muscular nature golem to beat the shooter's ass. On the other hand, the manner in which GreedFall's fantasy elements dampen some of the icky feelings one might otherwise experience while playing it would probably be viewed as a positive thing by some folks.

 

For platinum, it was necessary to play through the game twice, which made its plethora of issues glaringly obvious. Upon skipping most of the dialogue, I quickly noticed how quests typically boil down to slowly jogging back and forth to speak with NPCs, ad nauseam. The developers clearly realized this, because a small number of quests even cut out the backtracking, providing you the option of immediately warping back to the necessary NPC after completing an objective. I can see little reason not to have made this feature ubiquitous, beyond shamelessly padding playtime. Films understand the value of jump cuts, and it's about damn time devs realize when to implement them in their games; what a colossal waste of time! This is the main reason why the game sat unfinished on my list for over a year. While on this subject, I probably ought to mention how limited the animations for these important characters are. For the entirety of the game, they'll mostly remain seated in the same rooms, and their movements reminded me of those old humanoid animatronics.

 

It's shocking how many assets were lazily recycled, as well, with a huge number of buildings and city districts being basically identical. The governor's palaces in each city, for example, are exactly the same structure, and they didn't even attempt to hide this. Understandable that they had to make do with limited resources, but at least try harder to disguise it. Becomes really obvious after you've sprinted through the same places a thousand times by the end. Be wary of fast traveling, too, because the game crashed a number of times when trying to load the area. I recommend getting into the habit of always making a manual save beforehand. Area transitions also load at the speed of molasses, unfortunately.

 

Interspersed between all the needless running around are some of the most awkward and unresponsive combat encounters I've ever experienced, versus the strange beasts of Teer Fradee, bandits, and soldiers from the various factions. Unfortunately, words like "clunky" and "sluggish" don't begin to describe how dreadful GreedFall's fighting usually feels. Gaggles of enemies are frequently housed within such minuscule aggro areas that the player backpedaling a couple of steps will cause them all to immediately retreat to their spawn point, instantly healing themselves in the process. This can be especially problematic in close-quarters city battles, where it had me ready to pull my hair out at times. If that wasn't bad enough, the button shortcuts used to trigger your abilities fail to function properly half the time—I had alchemical bombs set to the R2+square button combo, and it was always a crapshoot whether one would actually be thrown, or if De Sardet would rather pointlessly kick the air or do nothing instead. Generally, there's a noticeable delay between pressing a button and your character executing the action.

 

Don't get me started about the weird glitches, either... the game's very first boss backed me into a corner and just kept plodding forward against the screen, making it impossible for either of us to attack. Fortunate that I had a recent save to load. To be fair, I did appreciate a singular combat feature: the ability to freeze time upon pressing the L1 button, which also brings up menus where you can select attack skills and use items. This was a far more reliable way to activate abilities or consume potions than the shortcuts, while also giving you time to carefully consider your next move.

 

Additionally, the three available playstyles aren't balanced in the slightest. On the skill grid, one can choose to build a character with proficiency in the use of bombs and firearms (Technical), arcane spellcasting such as the immobilization of foes with stasis (Magic), or handling standard melee weapons like swords, axes and clubs (Warrior). It's always nice to have options, but when Technical outclasses the other paths by such a vast margin, it feels foolish to bother with anything else. Crafting or duplicating a stockpile of ammo and bombs makes it laughably easy to win nearly every battle in the game: just toss a couple of explosives to melt through enemy armor, then spam shots with a six-round revolver. Add in some stasis with a short diversion into the Magic portion of the grid, and things get even less challenging. On the Extreme difficulty setting, only a couple of boss fights were actually able to kill me with this build.

 

As you've likely gathered by now, GreedFall is an extraordinarily flawed title in numerous ways, but I do think there's something kind of special about its eclectic blend of 18th century aesthetics/technology, fantastical primitive magic, and ancient gods of nature. How many big, mainstream games would dare to attempt something weird like this? I've got to give it some credit for having the courage to be different, even though the game is a mess mechanically and technically. The top-shelf vocal talent and endearing companion characters didn't hurt, either. With some improvements and polishing, GreedFall 2 has serious potential to be legitimately good, I'd wager. Anyhow, I promise my upcoming posts will be more concise! This game just had the exact right combination of traits to prompt an hour of my long-winded rambling, sorry.

 

To my health, and death to the others!

Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion (PS4)

 

Anticipation - 2/5

Hadn’t planned on playing this, but I had played the first game a few years ago and it was interesting enough. Was looking in the subscription service to find something free I could play until the next Hogwarts Legacy patch is released (currently locked out of that plat) so didn’t want something too big...and I came across this.

 

Enjoyment - 2/5

Seems a lot simpler and smaller than I remember the first game being and there seemed less to do in terms of brain work. But it was ok relative for what I was looking for. As it ended up, the game was so short, there still isn’t a new Hogwarts patch on the horizon so will be starting the process again. The plat is really simple, a couple of onourous fetch quests and about 25mins of grinding aside, there isn’t anything really off putting about the game...there just isn’t much to it.

 

Retrospect - 2/5

For players familiar with the source material the narrative maybe more interesting, but for someone like me who’s only interaction with adventure time was the 1st game, there isn’t too much here beyond a really easy plat and a bit of time-filler.

Fun 10/10
Difficulty 2/10 (For Resident Evil veteran)

Time 8 Hours (Including Ghost Survivor DLC and without using infinite weapon/autopop)

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

 

I adore this game. It's super fun, has one of the best soundtracks ever and a very tough platinum trophy. A real challenge here. It's very different from other Metal Gear games but it is definitely my favorite one. I really hope for a sequel to come out in the foreseeable future but there are no news about it whatsoever, sadly.

No remaster no, but hey we got some irrelevant artwork right? Thats how much the dev clearly cares about their fans. With their game stuck on 7th gen systems only. Well back compatible on series X but that doesn't help PS players.

Is this the vita one? I started it but the change of game play style makes me hesitate to finish it. 

[Darling Baphomet]

Double platinum day! Well, yesterday, as I've been a bit slow to write these things lately. Two games on the opposite end of the spectrum - an intense ass workout game and a rather simple mobile game that's an easy plat.

 

208: BoxVR - 6.61%

 

You've heard of Beat Saber by now. Everyone knows what Beat Saber is at this point. BoxVR is kind of similar, a game wherein you physically destroy notes and occasionally have to squat or lean to the side, set to music. But it's also very, very different. Beat Saber no doubt wins out in terms of being a game - it's sleek, the visuals (minimalistic as they are) are great, and the hit detection works just right. BoxVR, on the other hand, focuses more on being a workout than it does a game - the hit detection can be a little spotty, and it's not going to impress anyone in terms of its game mechanics and graphics. But while Beat Saber VR just has you mindlessly swinging your arms around, which is not as good a form of exercise as you might think, BoxVR instead has you shadow box, which works out your back, arms, and shoulders, to say nothing of the much more frequent squatting than in Beat Saber, making it far superior as an exercise game. It also has a much, much larger library of songs than Beat Saber, and unlike Beat Saber's base library, which consists mostly of dubstep-esque songs I never liked much, BoxVR's library of well over 100 songs ranges in genre from hiphop to electronic, and has far more songs I liked. If you're just looking for a fun game to play, BoxVR will probably disappoint (particularly because you're likely to be exhausted within half an hour), but if you're looking to set up an exercise routine, it's adequate as a game and fantastic as a workout.

 

... God damn, my shoulders hurt.

 

209: Cat Quest - 76.17%

 

Cat Quest originally launched as an Apple Arcade exclusive, and it very much feels like a mobile game. The entire game essentially consists of an RPG overworld, with the slight difference that you perform hack and slash esque combat, which consists of pressing square to attack enemies and occasionally casting spells. It's simple, but it's surprisingly satisfying. The world is littered with side quests, which largely consist of a bit of dialogue and then going to one or two places, but some of which actually have interesting enough premises. There's not too much to say about this game - I'd say it's a solid 7 or 7.5/10, worth playing if you can get it for the few dollars it often drops to, especially since (from what I hear) the sequel is massively expanded.

Evil Inside (PS5)

 

Anticipation - 2/5

Nearly bought this on release, hard copy, but didn’t get around to it. Saw it on the store for under a fiver so picked it up recently. Wasn’t sure what to expect beyond a 1st person horror.

 

Enjoyment - 1/5

Such a low score here because it’s just so short. I’m not sure what I was expecting, but more than two corridors and five rooms that’s for sure. Admittedly I knew nothing about the game (and still don’t) but it’s obvious this is a very small team who put this together, I just wasn’t prepared for how small a game it was. It plays more like I imagine a demo would. Just glad I never bought it new on release. 

 

Retrospect - 2/5

What the game does do well is to not instruct or lead you at all in working out how to advance ( the fact there is only two corridors to explore helps with there being no in game direction on what to do....as there certainly isn’t much time wasted). Outside of that, I’m not really too sure what this is. Would find it very hard to recommend.

[mega-tallica]

The Quarry

 

Enjoyment: 2/5 - It's no Until Dawn but it's alright. Fairly generic teen creature feature. I feel like your choices though didn't really effect much. No matter what path you take it always funnels into the same 1 or 2 endings depending almost entirely on having kept the two crucial characters alive to the end. As long as those 2 characters survive, all the other characters really don't matter. 

 

The trophy list is god awful and requires about 4 playthrough's for different outcomes and whatnot which is ridiculous because like I said, your choices really don't make that big of a difference. So having to replay the same thing over and over again with no way to skip cutscenes and dialogue or speed up the replays in any way is just pure torture. On top of that, the slowest walking speed I've ever seen in a game. Excruciating. 

 

Difficulty: 1/5 - Not difficult at all, it's all just QTE's and simple button presses when prompted, just an unnecessarily long time sink because of all the replays you need to do for platinum. You'll have the entire games' script plus most deviating paths memorized by the time you've got the platinum.

Jumping Flash!

Perfect Rabitteer

 

It's almost a strange feeling to say I have a Plat for a PS1 game! What a time to be a trophy hunter!

 

So I had a demo disc as a kid...most of it was just trailers to watch, but this game was on it...and I remember playing that demo disc SO MUCH just to play this game. You got one world (which was 3-2) to play and I never even knew what the hell was going on, I was never sure I was playing it right, I don't even know if I actually ever completed the level as I remember running out time every time I played (each world gives you 10 minutes). For such a simple game NOW...It stumped me back then, but I had a lot of fun with it and just never got to play the full game until now. 

 

So I started this earlier today with the intent of not finishing it until tomorrow for one last Plat in February. But at around 10:30pm I was like "Oh shit, it's the 28th! Tomorrow's March!". So considering the consensus online is that this game was only about 1-2 hours long, I figured it'd be no problem I made it World 4-1 before I stopped earlier anyways. Then the game decided to screw me! There's a trophy for beating the final boss without using a special weapon (just don't press ), and through the chaos of shooting him and jumping around I accidentally pressed it. But since these PS1 games have a rewind feature, I rewound to right before I used it, beat him, and the game didn't give me the trophy. So luckily I had that save from World 4-1 still, replayed from there, then this time I saved right as the final battle started...and my dumb ass presses circle by accident again! But I figure since I have this save now it'd be fine...nope. Beat him again and again and again, without pressing Circle and it just would give me the trophy. So for one last time I replayed from World 4-1, and made sure I didn't even touch circle of the Sub Boss before him, and it finally gave it to me. But...then I remembered that wasn't my last trophy. I had to accrue 9 total lives...and it was now 11:34pm, and the only thing I could do was completely restart the game. Managed to get the Plat at 11:52. Good old unneeded stress. 

 

The game itself is a lot of fun once you get used to the PS1 controls. For anyone playing this in the future...I would suggest not using the Left Stick to move and use the D-Pad instead. The analog stick tends to move you forward when you want to turn and it just makes things complicated. Some random investor has stolen major landmarks from the world and wants to turn them into his own private resort so they create this giant robotic rabbit (know as Robbit) to take him down. The game is extremely simple, you're doing a lot of platforming with the ability to triple jump and shoot enemies, but your task in the first two stages of each World is to grab 4 carrots scattered around the stage, then hit the Exit before the time runs out or before you die...if you do die you have to start all over.  Stage 1 of each world has a Bonus Stage you need to complete which can be a tad annoying...you have to pop a bunch of balloons in 1 Minute, this is where the rewind feature came in handy most for me, figuring out how to do it fast enough was a chore at times. Stage 3 is always a boss fight.

 

Again, I have no idea how I couldn't figure this game out as a kid...there's nothing to it. I think I remember thinking of it as some kind of sandbox you're just jumping around in and never realized there was an actual objective involved, but the game even tells you where the carrots are once you get in the vicinity, so why I would have never picked all of them up? I don't know. I feel stupid about it now lol.

Platinum #326

Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars

Ruler of the Dragon`s Isle - 46,18%

A classic turn based JRPG, that simulates an table top RPG. All things in this game are on cards (the environment, the characters, the items), dices decide about the outcome of actions and the game has a narrator (game master). Yoko Taro was involved in the development and it shows: the music feels like it is straight out of Nier (Automata), the story has it`s disturbing twists and some of the descriptions on the enemy and character cards are really fucked up.

For me this game/platinum was almost perfect, the only thing that I would change is, that for the platinum the game forces you to win a card game in four variations. The first and second are fine, but in version 3 and 4 this game gets a bit to luck based for my liking and it doesn`t help, that you play against 3 cpu opponents and each of them makes their turn in real time which lets you be a passive bystander for most of the time (especially "fun", when you have to repeat it a few times).

 

Platinum #327 (+ 100% DLC)

Phantom Breaker: Omnia

Omnia Master - 32,80%

Easy 2D fighting game with an almost exclusively female character roster (out of 23 characters only 3 and a half are male - the half comes from a character, who is controled by a   loli). From what I understand this is something like a Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo situation, where they had the base game and an extended version that they combined and then made a few new characters for this version. Most of the gameplay trophies (do this  move x ammount of time) can be done in training mode. The game looks good but you can see, that they added new characters, because some of the models of some of the newer fighters look more 3D which clashes with the other more 2D looking characters (Sophia, Artifactor, Maestra).

One more thing to mention is the credits for this game were they put the characters of the game in memes (2 woman screaming at a cat, Spider Man pointing at Spider Man and so on) which got a few laughs out of me.

Oh, and the game has Kurisu from Steins;Gate and a character (Shizuka) that I think I know from the (toned down) harem anime of an Hentai game, but I can`t remember the name of the anime (something with alternate history, where the girls are in old japanese navy uniforms with hot pants).

 

Platinum #328

The Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden (EU)

The Forsaken Maiden - 38,24%

Presentation and gameplay wise basically the same game as The Isle Dragon Roars (with an even darker story), but they made a few detail changes, that made this one worse than the first game.

- a lot of enemies and all bosses are damage sponges and heavy hitter, that can kill the weaker members of the party in one or two hits.

- Only two usefull party members, because the other party members are either a weak underlevelt character or guest characters that doesn`t level up or can be equiped with better weapons and armor.

This doesn`t mean, that the game is bad, but for anyone interested in the series I would recommend to start with The Isle Dragon Roars, because it is the far more polished game of the two (I haven`t played the 3rd. in the series (The Beasts of Burden) yet but I`m planning to buy that one and I heard it is better than The Forsaken Maiden).

I recently achieved my 10,000th trophy (and 182nd Platinum) after 11 years & 9 months, and 4 terrrific trophy consoles (PS3, PS Vita, PS4, and PS5). 

I've written 4 guides for this site and one of my forum posts started 7+ years ago has over 3,200 replies, and continues to this day!

 

I decided that my 10,000th trophy ought to be a Platinum (maintaining the tradition I started with my 8,000th trophy). I instantly knew that The Last of Us Part 1 would be the perfect celebration as it's a remake of the must-play PS3 classic, bringing my trophy hunting full circle. 

 

My life has changed so much over that time, and though I have less time to play these days, gaming and trophy hunting have been a constant source of joy. The medium has progressed impressively since the PS3 and even more since I started gaming on the humble but revered Game Boy Advance. Looking back on my gaming journey so thoroughly documented on this site is immenselfy gratifying, and I'm sure many of you can relate. Thank you to @Sly-Ripper and every single person who has contributed to this satisfying site as a moderator, guide writer, or through any other role! 

 

Here's to 10K more trophies!

-Seeing this game get a re-release in any form would make my day but then we even got a platinum, can't say how happy I am since it's one of my favorite games from the PS1 era, despite having played this game a lot back in the day I didn't remember much past disc 2 for some reason so the story felt a bit fresh, about the story, while it's nothing new it sure was unique in its own way, the whole mystery surrounding the Dragoons and the Moon that Never Sets got me hooked, won't say much because of spoilers but it was pretty nice, I liked most of the characters, just the lukewarm relationship between Shana and Dart in the first discs that drags for so long ugh..not to mention how desperate she was, I couldn't help but shake my head and think "Girl you need a glass of water because you thirsty" but it gets better as the plot moves on, gameplay wise it's your standard JRPG which suffer a bit from the 2000 jankyness but is all forgivable, the combat and additions are so much fun to do, I enjoyed them more than the Dragoon form, getting the last additions shreds enemies later on, even more than the dragoon spells, the graphics are pretty good for the time, specially the pre rendered backgrounds, the soundtrack is also very good with some memorable tracks, trophy wise is really simple and straight forward, you don't even need to collect all 50 Stardust for the trophy and there's no trophy for defeating the extra bosses sadly, but it was so much fun getting prepared for their fight, most trophies are related to story with only 5 related to extra stuff and none are missable, unless you cross the point of no return, now that the game has been patched I can recommend it to anyone who enjoys the golden age of JRPGs and wants a incredible experience, really hope this paves the way for a sequel or anything with the brand.

Miles Morales is a cool continuation of Marvel's Spider-Man, although the game is very short, it took me 6 or 7 hours doing the main storyline without rushing, I've played it on normal and I really enjoyed it. To be frank it felt like a movie, and that's ok, very casual, entertaining and enjoyable. There's not to much I can say about the game being honest, like I said on my post of Marvel's Spider-Man ( I made a mistake on itss rarity sorry my bad hehe) I'm not a fan of the superhero stuff but I really liked a lot the perspective of Miles, it felt cool to see him get to become Spider-Man, if there's one thing I didn't like was the change in appearance of Peter, I won't know why that happened, I really liked his look. I found better the combat in this game, it's more stylish in my opinion and it really feels good. Side missions were good too, thankfully you have the Friendly neighborhood app, that alone made this platinum less tedious since it really help with crimes and stuff. My favorite part of the game was the bridge part, the intro and the ending, gave me the chills. The soundtrack was awesome too, to put it simple, I really liked this game and plat. 

 

As for the plat there's not too much science about it, just play through the story, do some side missions and the rest is the typical stuff you'll find in a generic open world (enemy bases, collectibles, and crimes. I have to say this time it wasn't excessive and boring as on MSP), and last there's New game +, which I played on super easy to speed things up. If you're looking for a casual and entertaining plat Miles Morales is a perfect game to add to your collection!
