Ultimate Spider-Man – Part 1-3
Ultimate Spidey and his symbiotic rival have reunited, and it’s a clash for the ages!
Streamed on my Twitch.

For most of my Let’s Play, the aim is focus primarily on the critical path. Ultimate Spider-man’s core structure actually slots in very nicely to that aim. Unlike in Mafia 3, for example, I only need to briefly touch the open world activities between main story missions to unlock the next one.
This means that even sticking to the main story, I am directed to dip my toes into the sandbox element of the game every now and then. That’s a good thing, because it means that you, the viewer, get a fuller picture of what the game has to offer. Yet I don’t feel like I have to do anything off-screen, or grind. The amount they ask of me is so small that it’s nothing I can’t do in a few minutes.
If I was just a normal player, this would also be great because it gives me a reason to just see if there’s something in the collectibles or in the side-objectives that I genuinely and wish to pursue outside of the main missions.
Let’s Plays weren’t really a thing back then. And yet, Treyarch stumbled onto the formula for an extremely Let’s Playable game.
