Should I buy it?

Debating on either spending sixty dollars on a PS4 game or on an online MMO.

Was considering the Spider-Man game on PS4....would it be worth it?  Never played Spider-Man before.  Yet I don't see any other games that currently interest me.
Oh, there is Bloodbourne.....

Online MMO has no storyline and it's endless and boring grind. Single player games have story and ending.

Get the new spiderman, it's definitely a good game. I personally don't like MMOs... gets boring pretty darn fast.

Another vote for Spider-Man, it is amazing, especially if you like Spider-Man in general

Bloodborne is also amazing though, and should be pretty cheap by now.

It's Bloodborne Wink, but yeah - get that, if you haven't played it. It's frustratingly difficult at times, but you can get it dirt-cheap nowadays and it's an all-time classic - a masterpiece of game design, so the experience is worth it.

I'll probably give the Spiderman game a try at some point, but those games tend to be disappointing, so I'm not paying 45 quid for it. To be fair - there are very few games I consider worth paying full price for.

MMOs can be fun, but they're real time-sinks, as well as money-dumpsters. And the social aspect of those games can often be a hindrance to enjoyment. I play games in order to AVOID interactions with dipsh*ts, trolls and/or children. I tried an MMORPG once and I ended up wasting a lot of time (though thankfully not much money), over the course of a year, or longer, until I realized it felt like a second job. It was fun a lot of the time, but I don't know if I'd want to get into anything like that again.

Not into MMOs.

That’s part of the reason I won’t be getting Fallout 76.

Not really feeling the Spider-Man vibe, to be honest. If there was a decent PS4 X-Men game......
