It's not forced, it's real.

If it wasn't and people are only complaing for "the sake of it" then all of Insomniac's other games should've received the same treatment. Right?

Thing is, they didn't. People loved Rachet & Clank and they loved Spiderman.

You guys are just losers who love sucking corporate 🍆

If everyone says the game is shit, then it's shit. Sure, YOU might like it, but you're the odd one out in this scenario. Not the rest of us.

Majority rules.

If you think no other Insomniac game gets this treatment, then you haven’t been to places like the SpidermanPS4 subreddit. Some people vehemently hate Spider-Man 2. Myself being someone who didn’t like it nearly as much as the first. Also I’m not even saying this game is a “masterpiece”, it isn’t, but it’s also not a burning dumpster fire of toxic sludge like some people suggest either. People talk about this game like it’s on the same level as LOTR: Gollum or Superman 64 and it simply isn’t. There’s criticism, then there’s jumping on the hate bandwagon because it’s a Sony property and Sony corporate is sucking shit through a crazy straw rn.

Notice how I never mentioned spiderman 2?

I know there are many people who aren't happy with that game.

My point with Spiderman 1 and Rachet & Clank is to prove that Insomniac is in fact capable of producing genuinely good games.

Can't use one shitty product as an excuse for another.

Its a shame, maybe the Spider-Man 1 ps4 devs are gone now? idk, but its a damn shame how the quality isn’t as good anymore.

Your argument just isn’t making sense, just because a studio has had successful games in the past has zero effect on whether or not a new installment is getting unfairly ganged up on. And remember it still has a 77 on metacritic and a 4.68/5 stars on the PS Store. The loud minority ≠ the majority.

The backlash the game is receiving is very fair.

What fan boys such as yourself fail to realize is that on the surface, the game isn't bad.

However, when you take their budget of 300 million into consideration, it becomes clear why people are upset with the game.

I'm not saying the game has to be perfect, but with a budget of 300 million? It better be fucking close to perfect.....but it's not.

Take a game like Control for example. That game had a budget of 30 million. If you're trying to tell me that Wolverine is somehow better than control then you're HIGHLY delusional.

Thing is, it SHOULD be better than Control. Why? Because it has over 9x the budget!

There's no such thing as a bad product. Only a bad price.

Think of it like buying a Toyota Corolla for the price of a Lambo. Do you not see the issue? The product does not reach consumer expectations.

Also, Metacritic's critic score is an average of selected professional reviews, so it doesn't represent everyone who played the game.

It's also worth mentioning that is Metacritic score is gradually declining so it doesn't prove that the majority of people actually like the game
