DF tech analysis for those who want to watch it. looks stunning.
I guess it's to enforce the sense of progression through story but still...
Side activities lacking originality is the worst tho.
Thanks for your detailed impressions and review. I'll still take the game but at least i won't expect too much on some aspects. Overall it sounds very good.

It would be more of a freeroam feature.

As for the Spiderman game, the one thing I was hoping they would not do, they did. The side missions can not be done the same way as they done in previous Spiderman games and it appears they did.
Can't understand how they didn't tie those into the main story like Witcher 3.

It may not be the greatest game, but as long as it is entertaining and fun to play, that's all that really matters.
Rocksteady set the bar quite high for these superheroes games, long time ago. It's still not easy for others to top their work. I wonder what they are cooking for so long now...
about that side missions dont have good story... well, this is not dark and mature witcher game lol. personally i dont mind that side mission about "another villian must be captured\another citisen must be saved", cus in superhero game i want more gameplay and less talk. arkham in that terms is same to me
and "in the end its just another superhero game"... really?!!! how much we have good superhero games? AK were in 2015, second son in 2014. other superhero games is much older, or just bad or mediocre. yeah. JUST. ANOTHER... we cant have just another in the genre that have so little good games and so rare have great games. and even if they didnt make(first time btw) great openworld with great sideactivities, it still sounds like great game. which is spider man deserve to have for DECADES.
thx for review, cus im so glad to hear, that insomniac really know that "with great power comes great responsibility"

meh.
That said, with long development time now, Rocksteady could make something really big again (hope it's different superhero game).

Devs at this point have taken 1 of 2 routes regarding open world games:
They either fill their open world with optional shallow content (see GTA, Arkham city/origin/knight, far cry, assassins creed, Witcher, infamous, etc etc)
Or...
they don’t put anything to do in the open world at all (see mafia 2, la noire) and the open environment simply serves as background between missions.
I can’t think of an open world game that doesn’t do one of these 2 things? And if I had to choose between either, i’d definitely choose category A. As boring as I might have found the riddler trophies to be, or as unfulfilling as the pigeon killing was in GTA4. I’m not opposed to it being there, because no-one is forcing me to do it. But it’s nice to have if you do get into the tasks included (for instance blowing up bases in the saboteur or collecting orbs in crackdown) even if they are ultimately shallow distractions.
