Fraudulent NYC —> click bait
?
I don't wanna risk that 2 of my favourite posters get a warning or worse.
Now read the OP and try and spot the difference.
I'd say no and that it doesn't matter that it isn't. The Getaway was a more accurate rendition for back then but this isn't really about a pissing contest, I was just letting you know Watchdog's London is inaccurate to the same degree as the OP bar the American phenomenon of trying to get money for the Chrysler building's likeness which we don't really do here.
You got so offended by his post that you had to call him a moron? Really dog?
I got a funny feeling g this is one of those blindly defend Sony posts. Something tells me you wouldn't care about this otherwise. My man is from NYC and played the game. How the fuck you gonna call him a moron and tell him he ain't got the right to criticize a game that HE PLAYED. He bought the shit, h3 can do whatever the fuck he want about it.

I thought of you when seeing this thread's title. Nice of you (1) to come into this thread and (2) to actually be from NYC/Queens. Funny how a smart person doesn't go ignorantly throwing around the word "moron".
I'm an atheist...
What are you talking about? That's not what it's like.
"They didn't care" yet they had it in the first. They did care but the new owners of the building didn't reach an agreement with Insomniac on the copyright so they replaced it with another building not to land in legal trouble. And it was removed in Miles Morales not just 2.
Cool then you should be happy that there is another rendition of NYC even if it's not 100% accurate just like Watchdogs isn't a 100% accurate rendition of London but you seem pleased with. Just enjoy Spidermans photomode
Obviously they didn't put something resembling the thing so as to not land in legal trouble by resembling the thing.
A tall octagon isn't effort and the Freedom tower doesn't resemble the real thing in SM at all
Nobody is looking for a gotcha. That seems more like you looking for the limited landmarks that didn’t licence their image in the US as a gotchya for SM.
You haven't explained how it differs when I'm saying it doesn't really differ that much in terms of accuracy. Legion is missing landmarks too, some are even poorly modeled (look at Buckingham Palace) but like I said it isn't missing the main landmarks like big ben or Buckingham palace like some specific NY landmarks because we don't really treat our buildings as moneymakers for using their likeness. Besides most of our famous landmarks are more than 100 years old so they probably can't anyway.

How in Baby Jesus' name did an apostrophe find its way into this sentence!?
Nah, always wanted to though. Division 2 was DC (my birth town) and I didn't even play that one yet.
It's because of how fast you can move for sure. Also Central Park is probably the strangest factor as it seems exactly the same size as the first game but with a bigger city around it.
Spider-Man 2 is an immediate downgrade for the lack of Chrysler building alone.
haha funny thing about this statement is that if its an xbox game, its valid criticism, but hey man....its a 10/10 game so we defend it.
Exactly, that's my point. It looks nothing like the real thing still to avoid any legal action and it isn't "high effort" to create an octagon vs multiple rectangles to replace the other building.
