Same graphics, but different setting and character (Wolverine) and everyone would be drooling over these visuals
more than the graphics is the same animations, very similar gameplay... me and (and from the looks of it) most people were expecting to be amazed.
I mean thats how sequels and game development works. It would be expensive and really stupid to redo all the work for animations and also make development take like 10 years.
Gameplay is also obviously same, its a sequel, we dont expect it to suddenly become resident evil 4
Of course it looks cool, even if these were taken with the in game photo mode, it just adds incredible detail that is not there in Normal gameplay.
Not that the game looks bad, it actually looks amazing to me…

I think the graphics are good and the symbiotic stuff looks new and like it will change up playing as the original. Was the finisher he did against the wall also new, or was something like that in the 2018 version?After the wall slam to the side where he kicks them into the wall.
I’m interested in if the symbiotic suit is going to have its own suit styles to change it up, and what might happen when/if it gets taken away from us for story purposes.

Where’s the kid from the other thread that said it looks no different from Fortnite

Exposing the sinister cartel of retailers who allow companies to pay for advertising space.
Seems to be the case unfortunately. IMO there’s only one Spiderman and that’s Peter Parker.

You knows this games going to bees pretty good but I find it very unexciting.
I wish Insomniac would move on to another franchises but this prints some money I tinks.

Damn looks amazing tbh. Can't wait for this.

Venom reminds me of the prototype game.
I think people had high expectations but the fact that they reposted a screenshot that matches the original 2020 trailer I would say those expectations were probably just conjured up from nothing but imagination and hope.
The game looks graphically good and I'm not sure what those expectations were. I suspect lighting?

Maybe that is what they target for the final build. I don't think those screenshot are too hard to reach. Those screenshots just have better lighting than the showcase trailer
95% of the game you won't touch the water though.

What do you think would be best for the Venom suit? I’m torn because I’ve seen it shown as both a watery-type of suit and also as a solid black suit. Both looks make sense and don’t make sense at the same time.

The newer build looks even better!
The game will look just as fantastic, if not better, than Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart.

Tag, you're it.
I'm not impressed honestly, I wanted a wow effect and this isn't it.
Does it have a dynamic TOD now? If it's still the same as Spider Man 1 then I'm very disappointed.
Anyway, what stood out to me the most was the gameplay, because I'm sure the game will look good enough so I'm not really concerned about the graphics. But the gameplay? Very classic and underwhelming.
Maybe they're keeping some stuff under wrap for now but give me some nice Web of Shadows-style aerial combat and more weight when on low altitude. For now it seems like there is still this weird feeling like the game is carrying you to not crash into the ground.. Let me do mistake and learn the swinging, it's even more fun this way than just magically regaining height. The old Spider-Man 2 was so good because it was rewarding once you learned how to use the physics.

No idea, I just don’t find the ‘glare’ on it very visually pleasing. Everything else looks great, but that specifically sticks out as just looking bad to me.
Maybe just make it a normal black suit with venom powers. Or as you mention, solid black without the reflections.

I know, just shouldn’t have focused on the 5% where it looks like it needs more polish. But I assume they hear the complaints so they’ll probably do something. It’s a scripted sequence so they could probably get away with some prebaked wave animations.

Build off the spiderman remaster engine and release the new game in 3 years or go all in on creating new tech/graphics and let players wait 5-6 years for the new game.
I think Insomniac made the right choice.

I would like Insomniac to explain why it doesn't come close to the teaser trailer?

That's how sequels work.
Waiting for PS4 version to be announced...
Cross gen Forbidden West is clear of this disappointment. People on here defending these graphics reminds me how everyone was saying how amazing Miles Morales looks when it got first gameplay trailer and how it was only possible on PS5, but little did they know. I guess we'll have to wait a bit longer to get trur next gen experience.

Looking meh still. Will be a fun ride I think, but not the first PS5 showcase I was hoping for.

They heard wrong. We are hungry for next Gen graphics and gameplay. Not more mediocrity.
Nice bullshots though. The flying section looks nothing like that. Miles combat section too.
Someone did a comparison of these shots in the original thread. Difference was pretty stark. Either the demo was an older build or insomniac is pushing bullshots like it is 2007.
Could be a bit of both.

Can't believe they are 20 plus year olds. That are even hyped for a Spider-Man game to begin with. The Soy Station 5.

It does during cinematics, which just has a better hero lighting model
