So Marvel's Spider-Man is a great game. Not much else to say there. Almost a perfect game. It's basically guaranteed to have a sequel at this point. I thought I would put together a list of things that the sequel needs.
1. No More MJ or Miles Missions: These were by far my least favorite missions in the game. Not because they were difficult. They were just tedious. We were just fine with the Spider-Man stealth missions. No need to add the extra missions. Also, they were unrealistic for the simple fact that MJ can use a tazer on Sable agents and they're down for the count but if I use one of Spider-Man's electric webs they're good after a few seconds? I call BS. The only exception is if Miles is just straight up Spider-Man and you can switch between him and Peter.
2. More City: The city was huge, lets add another area. How about Brooklyn, or Queens. Adding one because you've already got Manhattan. Just build out. That was supposed to be the plan for Grand Theft Auto V then the microtransactions attacked. You don't want to get stuck in the same place for too long.
3. More Side Missions: Most of the ones in the game were pretty fun. Actually all of them were kind of fun except chasing pigeons and tracking down corrupted students. Those were horrible. I loved the others. Tombstone being my favorite. I think it would be great if we could use these to take on other villains outside the main story. Mysterio comes to mind, or maybe introduce some Villains for Miles.
4. More Finishers: The ones we had were great, I just wish there was a little more variance between them. It's like Skyrim in the sense that they are really cool to see and satisfying to pull off. There just isn't enough of them.
5. Just Keep Being Amazing: I mean, you're doing a wonderful job here. If you kept everything the same but let me play as Miles Morales or Miguel O'Hara as well as Peter, it'd be perfect for me. I spent the last third of the game in Miguel's suits anyway. Good call on leaving out Miles' suit, because you know, a bigger reveal later.
