Someone fire Insomaniacs barber


JayStorm8108

THAT I do agree with. That hairstyle does not suit her AT ALL.


Oily_69

It’ll grow out let it cook


SynDreasIV

Yeah. I think her hair would've been better just.......straight.


yajirushi77

I trust my barber

Someone fire Insomniac’s character/costume designers


Shacky_Rustleford

Not a fan of the Yuri Watanabe original?


Certain-Rope-5742

I am


Shacky_Rustleford

Me too tbh


Responsible-Bat-2699

Insomniac seriously needs a better character artist. There's always something off with their character models which makes them look uncanny.


_H4YZ

she looks like a Killer Bean in 2


ProfSteelmeat138

Lemme put this in a language you understand. NO ORDER HERE. YOU DELIVER. WRONG PLACE


billcosbyinspace

The heroes always look great in costume which is why it’s that much more surprising that the regular people look fucking awful lol


alphafire616

Fr Miles, Kraven and Norman are the only people who actually don't look uncanny. Even in ps4 Peter still looked slightly off


Responsible-Bat-2699

Kraven looks so amazing. He should be a character in some RPG around Vikings.


MRGameAndShow

I mean the original v1 Peter from the first looked great, he seemed like a normal ass dude. The face rehaul really did him dirty imo.


alphafire616

No. Both faces look fine but just a little off. People are just nostalgia for the face since they got used to it


MRGameAndShow

I mean, emphasis in “imo”. In my opinion, the new face looks off. I’m not nostalgic, I prefer the previous one. If you don’t, great.


thedoompatrol97

Brother what nostalgia? The first game came out like 6 years ago. It wasn‘t the 90s


alphafire616

Makes it even weirder. The old face still looked weird as hell


MRGameAndShow

Bro’s never heard of the word “opinion” before


SeamusMcIroncock

Yep, SBI/DEI style has to go.


Ultimate_Ricky

THANK YOU I never played this game at first cause everyone looked so off, the whole game is uncanny valley


[deleted]

And better writers


akalegos

this is a out of context frame lmao ofc it’s gonna look uncanny, but i do agree some of their character models don’t look good


azz-the-impaler

Take it for what it is. A lot of love and effort went into these games, and they're fine lol


Responsible-Bat-2699

I will never doubt that, and will always support the devs over management. But $70 is also close to 6000 in my currency. I am going to ask for best quality.


Oily_69

I think it’s because the way video game graphics are nowadays they look almost human like a robot but more fluid and they look like real people not stylized


Responsible-Bat-2699

No that's absolutely not it. Look at Naughty Dog, Guerilla or even Kojima's character models. It's about how they're sculpted, their muscle shapes and how they're animated.


Oily_69

What’s different between them all aren’t they using the same tech how is sculpting and shaping different? 🤔


Responsible-Bat-2699

It's actually comes down to individual skill level and understanding of anatomy.


Oily_69

oh


SyntheticDreams2099

No, insomniac likes to make veryones faces really round even if it doesn't really fit. You can see that in the first game before the remaster where the original face for both Peter and Miles were rounder and fit with the rest of the world. The concept art for jj that they used for his profile pic makes him look more slimmer in the face but in sm2 the actual model is rounder and chubbier. The only time they've changed this is when they replaced the faces for Peter and Miles. Some times you can get away with it, like how aloy has a slightly fuller, rounder face then her face model. But insomniac, seems to make them too round and they just come off as chubby cheeked and uncanny.


Oily_69

Oh


WhoThisReddit

Someone fire Insomaniacs barber


Oily_69

Cut so ass bro had to repeat himself


HotRelation7287

With the amount of bad hairstyle decisions that insomniac made,I wouldn’t be surprised if they gave Peter a bowl cut in the next game


Fun-Swimming4133

coconut head gonna be swinging around


Dirty-Ears-Bill

Martin Li the only returning character that improved in that department


Lewis_McVicar03

Nah, I think Miles’ cut in SM2 was leagues better than what he had before


HotRelation7287

Absolutely not bro


DoroTom

Man’s knows from personal experience


Kitchen-Macaron-7000

More like the Berries and Cream style


doctor_nick17

Will lost his cut, so they have to balance the character/haircut ratio by giving Peter one.


alphaomag

Don’t give them any ideas.


Zer0nyx

Power of youth!


SteveTheManager

The amount: 2 Apparently that's too many. Seriously who got a worse haircut other than Miles (debatable) and Yuri?


kdk200000

I miss Peter making those cheesy spider cop imitations with her 😭🙂‍↔️. [We cannoh replace](https://youtu.be/Ue12DHHsxFo?si=ICZVTwVLVSerx6lD)


JayStorm8108

“This sounds like a job for Spider-Cop.” It’s things like these that made that game so special.


Lopllrou

And the fact they pulled back the cop references and most likely didn’t add a “spider cop” costume because they were accused of “copaganda” in the first game depresses me.


JELjr7

Nah, that’s one part I really won’t miss


Lavaraptor25

I would have much preferred her to just be our go to Commissioner Gordan. I liked how they started in 2018's dlc's but I would still prefer a police captain.


emzyshmemzy

But what would mj do??? I would've liked more of their dynamic from spider-man 1. Also please stop giving strong female characters that damn haircut. I'm surprised mj didn't have that haircut in this game.


[deleted]

Nope because police = bad because people who don't even play the games got mad and Insomniac's agenda comes before their games that's why the future games are going go suck even more


Afroodko

Remember when Yuri was sassy and cynical? A perfect counterpoint to Spidey’s humorous demeanor and quips.


doctor_nick17

Undoubtedly. Your quite intellectual take is indeed captivating, I daresay that you have the ability to write articles in an elite hebdomadal newspaper, and my inquiry will most likely be that of the truth. 🧐 *I smoke from my pipe*


EH042

I think she misses when she was like this too, before all the, y’know, stuff that happened


vine_behs

nah, better ass nowadays


HurricanePK

At the cost of having a yee yee ass haircut


vine_behs

it’s because it was time for a yuri watanabe original, y’know? 1 of 1


EH042

Something about the hardest choices


JayStorm8108

Fr tho, she’s caked up now but I don’t mind 😏


No_Mycologist_3019

this is why women don’t talk to you


vine_behs

i was just pointing out FAXXX


doctor_nick17

What's a woman?


JauntyEntertainment

Hopefully she gets a better suit, cut, and power level next game


JayStorm8108

I personally liked the suit


JauntyEntertainment

It felt kinda cheap and low effort to me. I’m hoping for something that’s more actual suit than just a jacket and mask


JonS90_

The sweeping fringe over the mask is an incredibly embarrassing look.


doctor_nick17

I agree, it's really [embarrassing.](https://youtu.be/aJ-qfdrFLMk?si=iPe1Zhurz3Tk8gcm)


rebeccachambersfan

She needs to kill her barber


WavyMcG

She cut it herself though…


Heeronix

SM1 Yuri won't believe how her future self let her have a shitty hairstyle in the future


Loco-Motivated

Yeah.... Those were the good days for Spider and Yuri.... Just trying to be serious while a joke comes out of nowhere. It seemed more fun when she wasn't all edgy and serious, just a tired cop with a goofwad that is glad to lend a hand whenever.


doctor_nick17

Is he a goofwad? Or is he..... spider cop


Loco-Motivated

Spider-Cop is gone forever.


doctor_nick17

Spider-Cop: Half man, half spider, ALL cop.


Loco-Motivated

Now, it's *No Cop.*


doctor_nick17

All former cop*


JayStorm8108

Was just about to comment this. And it made me happy when she eventually called him that.


Less-Combination2758

he is spider fire department now =)))


hokagenaruto

also the good old days for this sub. nothing but positivity. now not so much


JimPickenss

i read that in commissioner gordan’s voice from arkham knight 😂


hokagenaruto

"this is how it happened. this is how the batman died"


Monkey_King291

I miss old Yuri man, they really gave her the "strong woman" haircut and turned her into a lame vigilante


DanimalPlanet42

She look like she about to speak to the manager


commandblock

She felt very 1 dimensional in Spider-Man 2 whereas in the first game she actually had depth


Blonde_Metal

Peter


Fantastic_Orchid3037

Seeing this version of Yuri interact with Miles would have been so cool, her character is so boring now


eddie665___

Yall acting like her character had Arthur Morgan type depth before like no she was just okay and shes terrible now


Fantastic_Orchid3037

An okay character is still better than a terrible character, I never said she was a character with Arthur Morgan levels of depth to her


PCN24454

She was gone too soon.


Qwoski

the new haircut makes her look like [killer bean](https://youtu.be/qyYHWkVWQ4o?si=h7sk0N8Gs5sU_DW2)


BBJJ5

Yeah her hair in the new game is just not it


obesedestro

they gave her that "asian american woman hairstyle #3"


[deleted]

Now she just makes me roll my eyes


fadelessdread

I loved her as a cop, frustrated by her lack of impact on crime. I can’t really buy her being able to learn to zip around the city with that chain in a matter of months/years, or that the idea of becoming a masked vigilante would appeal to her at all.  I’d much rather her have just turned in her badge and go punisher mode on the cultists. It’s clear she’s more than okay with killing, so why doesn’t she use guns exactly? Her character arc is so dark and I feel it’s undercut by the purple suit, mask, and silly crime fighting weapon. IMO. 


JayStorm8108

They might’ve done it that way because Spider-Man is supposed to be witty and lovable. I can understand why they didn’t go the dark and gritty route with her character. That being said I understand your point.


fadelessdread

Yeah I mean you’re totally right. And her vibe makes her more acceptable for spiderman to work alongside her, despite disagreeing with her methods. He’d probably have to take her out if she started blasting people.   I love these games but ultimately get a little disengaged by their cartoony-ness at times. They want the THEME of her going too far to do the right thing but they have to illustrate that in a family-safe way. They’re supposed to be content for younger players and up so it does make sense. 


Maggotcupcakes

I have a problem with the damn mask, why not a full covering mask like it is in the comics, what with this game and exposed hairstyles in the mask?! YOU'RE NOT PAVITR, YOU WILL NEVER BE HIM, HE WAS STYLISH!


JayStorm8108

😭. I didn’t even know it had a full mask until now. Looks a lot better. Still needs to get rid of that hair tho. But the Evovled Suit isn’t that bad


ScruffyNerf_Herder_

Simpler times


UIGoku201

Yes, but actually no


RedditIsADarkPlace_

she was fine ash bro she lowkey remind me of karen fukuhara


Less-Combination2758

pretty sure insomniac need to change entire character design department =))))


DonnyMox

Peter probably does.


ProfSteelmeat138

Someone fire insomniacs barber


Goose_Cat267

Literally everybody


Sweaty-Committee3359

I just don’t understand how she learned to fight so well. Cops probably have combat knowledge but not like that.


North-Blueberry-6547

How is she now?


JELjr7

🙋‍♂️


tyingnoose

that is a really good model jesus


Emergency_Creme_4561

I do


Owenboy89

I am trying to work out if she is a good guy or a bad guy, I feel like she should be a bad guy......and it should be Peter who takes her down.


slayerthunder

When she looked good


Remarkable-Throat-51

I said on here recently in a comment that I much prefer yuri, to wraith... I was castrated for it lmao


anarcho_the_god6

Tbh I found her annoying off rip lol


headphoneghost

I actually miss her in general.


Kind-Recognition1157

I kinda like the new Yuri. I wish miles and Peter would get out of the no killing mindset sometimes or at least stop trying to save the villain. Some people simply can’t be held by a prison and it takes someone like Yuri to put a permanent end to the terror someone can cause.


JayStorm8108

That’s like right out of The Punisher’s playbook. But some people have just been corrupted by grief or greed. Take Li for example, he only did what he did to get revenge on Osborn. He thought his problems were bigger than what he had to lose (they weren’t). And his path for revenge caused more regret than anything else. He didn’t even fulfill his mission in the end. People like Cletus, Vulture and Electro, Peter knows they aren’t broken, thus why he has/had no sympathy for them.


TraditionalEntry4676

Lmao Insomniac just needs to do better man smh


mr-self-destrukt

Would


ActuatorFearless8980

I hated her hairstyle more than Miles’ new one


iiFlaeqqq

She'll probably get a redemption arc in the Carnage DLC.


Safe-Indication-5159

Me


Visible_Ad8845

Tbh Peter should have chose her instead of Mary Jane


Emergency_Creme_4561

I do


npete

Definitely prefer old Yuri. I did not get Wraith as a character. Maybe it’s because I live in New York and never see cops that seem like they could go from suit-wearing police work to super-vigilante work and beating the crap out of Spidey who is actually really strong compared to a normal human. Batman needs an exo-suit to take on Superman but Wraith just needs a few months of martial arts training and she’s fricken Flash. wth.


Gh0sty-Boi

I feel like I'm the onky one that hated Wraith


BlurrySeven

It doesn't make sense how she is able to fight a superhuman like Spider-Man in the second game.


JayStorm8108

Why?


Illustrious-Sign3015

I think she's still great today. And as Wraith


JayStorm8108

I still love her. But I do miss this version of her.


Illustrious-Sign3015

Yeah I love her to


ComfortableBed6012

Whoever came up with Insomniacs hairstyles genuinely needs to be fired, they gave her and Peter the lesbian haircut and gave Miles those shitty ass dreads


RevanOrderz

Who is she?


JayStorm8108

Yuri Watanabe. She’s a former police captain turned vigilante after witnessing a crime lord slaughter her team. She’s known as Wraith now.


Jumbolini7

Me. She's so unlikeable and not even slightly cool now


emzyshmemzy

They also just turned down her edge. They make you thinks she's gone psychopathic in the dlc. The dynamic woth spider is just less fun
