This is a good thing in my opinion. Keeping it simple. No need to shove a load of pointless quests in with side characters I'm not bothered about. The only other character that would make sense is playing as Peter Parker if the abilities you earned in the previous game carried over to his sections. Looking forward to playing a different Spidey style with Miles!
It could be that people heard how difficult it was as well and decided not to bother. That's one of the reasons I didn't opt for it. I want to have fun, not a broken controller.
@DuncanMcleod The main interest of a game is to have fun I agree and for me, co-op and multiplayer aren't fun generally. Again, it is personal to want that platinum, that 100% but it does truly put me off a game if I know it's going to be a grind or I have no-one to play it with. It means finding a boosting partner etc. I much prefer it if the multiplayer and the single player are kept separate, much like the Warzone and Modern Warfare. Takes the pressure off for me. Each to their own though.
@DuncanMcleod I enjoy hunting for trophies, I enjoy the sense of completion and I enjoy exploring parts of a game I never would have, seeing things I never would have and adopting different playstyles I never would have. To achieve this, forcing interaction with other players is a thing I could do without. Forcing me into multiplayer in what is supposed to be a single player game (Last of Us as an example) I could also do without. If it's out of my control, then I find it frustrating, not fun.
No doubt there will be a trophy that comes with it that means you'll BOTH need to be experts at the game and no less than 1000 hours of practice will do. No thanks. Leave multiplayer out of single player games. I thought we'd learnt this over the past few years. Even the latest COD doesn't have multiplayer trophies.

Re: Soapbox: I Don't Like Playing Scary Games, But I Do Like Watching Them
If I'm not playing games, I'm watching people play games. Nothing wrong with it at all.
Re: Watch Dogs Legion - The Dullest Ubisoft Open-Worlder Yet
This whole review made this game sound like a total waste of money and time, then it got 5/10...?

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Goes Gold Ahead of PS5 Launch
@Medic_Alert Still hoping for the email that the PS5 is coming a week early too haha!
@nessisonett Why would they change it from the 19th to the 12th to change it back to the 19th though?
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Goes Gold Ahead of PS5 Launch
@nessisonett Not according to my Amazon order. We're getting it on the 12th as well.

Re: Crash Bandicoot 4 Has Local Multiplayer, According to PSN Listing
@MarcG420 That's fine, I'm all for a separate list, that I can remove from the single player list entirely. That would be fantastic.

Re: PS5's Large Size Helps It Stay Cool, PlayStation Confirms
I thought my PS4 Pro was going to take off last night when playing MGSV so I'm all for it. It looks beautiful as well. A majestic console.
