Please Give Me Some Alternatives to Genshin Impact and Spider-Man (PS4) on PC/Android
I realized that I like these two games a lot and their common feature is the open world side quest things.
When I play Spider-Man instead of teleporting to the main quest, I swing to the general direction and probably clear most of everything I encounter (Photography, Random Crimes, enemy hideouts, etc.) that I find myself spending most of my time doing the world quests rather than the main story quests.
Same thing with Genshin, I remember my first 10 or so hours of playing it was just looking for chests throughout the map, opening waypoints, looking for those anemoculus, etc.
Bad thing with Genshin though is that it has Gacha so I thought to look for Alternatives.
Yes, I could just continue playing Spider-Man instead but I don’t normally have access to a PS4/PS5. (I can play on PC, but I’d rather just finish it on the ps4 instead of paying for it twice).
I guess in summary, please recommend games that has these amazing world quests (BOTW is another one, but I already plan to play that).
What’s better than going to the main inspiration of Spider games? Insomniac already said that a huge inspiration of their games is the Batman Arkham Series. They play very similarly but with Arkham being more focused on stealth and puzzles. The first one, Arkham Asylum is more of a metroidvania than an open world, so I think you could start with Arkham City (the second one). As for Zelda, you could try one of its copycats, Genshin is one of them, the other one would be Fenyx Rising, a Ubisoft game. I have never played, but from what Ive read, it’s pretty good.
