I know that maintaining a balance between their hero and their normal lives is a common comic book trope, but not being a fan myself, ive only seen the normal life side of the argument represented. Has there ever been any portrayal of the super hero side of the argument?

"Im sorry that you feel that way MJ, guess i was too busy putting my own life at risk keeping other superhumans from wrecking your and the entire's city relatively safe life style that i didnt realize how insecure and frankly envious you are. You wrote a book, i save lives by the hour. Fuck off"

Maybe not with those exact same words, but something

One trope I've seen is where the superhero blatantly gets too much into their alter ego and that starts impacting not just their everyday lives but also their personality. Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy is a good example of this, where "Bruce Wayne" eventually becomes the mask and Batman becomes his true personality, impacting his relationship with Alfred and everybody else.

I would love to see something like that against cunty Jane, but you aren't allowed to backtalk to strong whamen. Classic MJ would have never given Peter shit about this since she understood the weight of what he did AND accepted it for the good and the bad it brought, was one of the reasons she loved him after all.

It would actually be a good story if the woman stays solely because she wants to support the hero rather than actually loving him. Sadly, modern big city women are insanely egotistical, so any chance of actually calling them out on being psychopathic bitches is non existent. Even if it will make a good story.

That's a pretty interesting trope, too, and it would've been much better suited for the soyderman example here, too. "I fell in love with Peter, not Spiderman."

The more i read this back and forth the worse it becomes, without any context, this scene seems to be a "facing your demons" beat, confronting harsh truths, but hell, none of that reads as anything similar to even tough love, it's actually written very similarly to what an abusive woman would tell her man to belittle and emasculate him, prevent him from actually digging himself out of his hole

Now to be completely fair, i aint playing this game, all the context i have comes from these screenshots. For all i know this was done intentionally, some villian exacerbating Peter's fears by using MJ's worst traits against him and trying to break him mentally or something. If that's what they went for, okay.

Forget Soyderman and read the comics. The old ones, from the 60's and 70's, if you really get into it stop by 2015 as that is when Marvel Universe died(like I said)
There is plenty of old anthology books you can buy, or you can browse a bit and read it all for free. Don't even bother with modern Marvel and especially soyny games, they butcher the source material like everyone else these days

If the Bamham arkham games were made today they’d make you play as Catwoman for half of it and shit on Batman/Bruce Wayne all game because “capitalism bad”

Arkham City unironically has Catwoman segments that are fucking awesome because she plays differently enough from Batman to be a fun break away but doesn't slow anything down. Honestly the same fucking solution is right here. You want diversity? Make Black Cat playable, nix niggerman and give her the wingsuit.

Honestly just fucking copy the Batman Arkham formula. Have the game be focused on Peter and play as him %80 of the time with Miles and Black Cat be the Robin and Catwoman of this game respectively. You get diversity of gameplay + diversity points for that ESG score, chuds are happy because the limelight is still on Peter. Everyone wins, everyone is happy.

Things like "the expert" are, in spanish, "el experto" (masculine) or "la experta" (feminine)
For some reason they use "le experte" which is french
Spanish twitch streamer muted the in game "podcast" audio, then a bunch of twitter users who don't speak spanish started to complain about him.
They latinx'd the game.

We need a gender neutral Spanish word for "the expert". Let's use French feminine form of the noun, but use a masculine French article. All those countries and languages are basically the same thing, right?

My hatred for Miles is increasing exponentially in recent years. He isn't relatable in any way, so what's even the point in him being a Nigger? He might as well be an alien.

He's weak as a stand-alone protagonist so they have him piggy back off Peter. I actually liked him when he was introduced in 2011 but I'm starting to get sick of him as well.

How does Peter quitting even work? New York is massive and in the comics there are like 20 superheroes full time there. Two Spidermen would save a lot more people by just sticking to their areas. Does Peter just say fuck it and ignore anyone in trouble in his vicinity? Or is there some retarded plot reason he loses his powers to justify Miles taking over?

The thing about Miles is that he isn't even black, he is some bizarre mutt fantasy that white people would rather have than the average reality of black people. Instead he is just an ebonics spouting hipster that behaves as someone who is smarter, richer and a bigger victim than everyone else.

All I want is someone to backport the assist options (so I can turn down the automation entirely for webslinging) and fall-damage to spiderman remastered bc god this looks like a downgrade from the first game
Like, I liked alot of shit about the first game (the grounded feel, the web gadgets making peter versatile, a lot of the world building) hell, even thought the miles game they made was cool, but ps5 man looks like I tried too hard to be everything and fucked up due to that.
also I have now come to the conclusion that I do not care for the symbiotes and any time they try to do "Planet of the Symbiotes" type shit with multiple running the fuck around it more often than not ends up like shit Carnage still is cool, tho

I keep forgetting he's not even fully black he's some black-latinx mix that drops random spanish phrases for diversity points. The way these games handle minority stereotypes is honestly hilarious. In MM there's a side mission where you record sounds across the city so you could sample them in a hip hop track. Insomniac really said "Black culture is hip hop and graffiti". And mixing up the Cuban and Puerto Rico Flags is another fun detail. It's about lib whites feeling better about themselves than actual cultural representation.
