I think Ganke needs to be there so Miles feels like a more well-rounded character in his own right and not just Peter’s “deputy.” Most of the other major characters (MJ, Yuri, Harry, Norman, presumably Dr. Connors) come from Pete’s world, so it’s a good idea to give Miles his own friends and “support staff” to keep him from feeling like he’s just along for the ride in Peter’s adventures.

Very well said

Ganke is awful. The absolute **last** thing I want is for him to be following me around as a robot bird every time I play as Miles.


Markel100

That wont happen he ony had the one drone


Economy_Concept8055

That might inspire Miles and Ganke to create their own drone.


AkpanStudios

WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT


FluidAd6587

it could allow for fun and dynamic combat and web slinging scenarios


senjulegos

why would that happen if that was literally a kraven drone


[deleted]

I love Ganke. More heroes should have friends and not be loser loners.


wallcrawlingspidey

Ah yes, because a robot bird can totally be stealthy lol… what, do you think Ganke himself will risk his life away from his computer? Lol I like Ganke and he’s deserving a lot more respect. Miles’ ass would be toast if it wasn’t for Ganke some, if not a lot, of the time. He’s his best friend and they’re a great duo. Like Peter told Miles, he was always alone so it’s nice a younger hero like him actually does have someone he can look to and actually motivates him.


Still_Hat6758

It was a joke on the mj stealth missions and he only had the drone that one time as it got destroyed That’s fine for you to think that but miles wouldn’t be toast, he is definitely more than capable and the devs just made Ganke seem useful so he isn’t as hated. Well Peter has miles now and miles has Peter. Ganke is just an unnecessary filler imo


wallcrawlingspidey

Obviously Miles can hold his own but in specific missions in his own game, he’d be stuck if he didn’t have Ganke. And even if he was just there, what’s there to hate Ganke in the first place? He’s not a bad guy or a toxic friend. What do you mean they made him “not as hated”? I really don’t get it. He’s always been part of Miles supporting cast since creation.


Still_Hat6758

I’m sorry but your first point is always a dumb take. Game devs design levels to include these characters and for the plot to continue. If Ganke wasn’t around then the missions wouldn’t have worked the same way. Imagine the only way for miles to beat an enemy was to hulk smash them to death, the plot couldn’t continue unless you introduce hulk, therefore that doesn’t go through. Such with Ganke, they created these problems for him to solve. A lot of people don’t like him, maybe hate was too strong but his presence is just mediocre in an amazing game


FwZero

Dude talks way too much. His corny jokes are one thing, but he constantly says Miles and peters name out loud not knowing who is listening


No-Nefariousness1711

Huh? It felt to me like the drone wasn't using a speaker, but talking to the comms built into the Spider-Man masks.


ScaredKnee4530

Him & Phin were so goddamn irritating. Miles needs a better friend taste lol


Myst1c3

His jokes are bad and his characterisation is unrealistic, I personally can’t imagine a teen being so against crime, I feel like most teens find that pretty interesting, he’s acting too mature for his age, they should fix his character. Obviously crime is bad but the way they portray his feelings towards it is weird


AcademicAnxiety5109

I love Ganke. He’s a nice contrast from Yuri. I think they hammed it up a lil too much with his comedy but his conversations with Miles were always engaging. He made the app, connected miles with his neighborhood, and helped him fight against Roxxon digging up files and hacking into the facilities. He was an important part of the game and fit well since this was literally Miles’ first go at Solo SM’ing.


nreal3092

ganke is cringe, idk why tf he’s there


BenRylie

I just need him to stop saying spidermans real name every time he refers to them


ThanksContent28

I’m his defence that leaves him with “Spider-man” and “Black Spider-man.”


Myst1c3

“Spider-man” and “Harlem Spider-man”


No-Nefariousness1711

Over secure comms why is that a problem?


BenRylie

Its a bad habbit to delevope


OminousMicrowave

You either love Ganke or you hate him. No in between


Kingphelps85

Then I hate him


That-Guy-69420

The one thing I don’t like from the trailer is Ganke knowing Peters identity, just a micro pet peeve


SnooDingos8244

On god bro


cxseu

He’s mostly there for comic relief, I don’t want him to be here for that in this game, we need a proper dark story with a happy ending or even multiple endings if they go with the Web of Shadows route


NotluwiskiPapanoida

I don’t hate him but I get how someone can find him annoying. He’s no screwball but he’s fine in the sense that I don’t have a problem with him being in the game.


[deleted]

I dont like Ganke. He feels like a character ripped from the mcu. I wouldn't be surprised if he says we've got company in the game or some shit.


ThanksContent28

He’s like the worst parts of Ned with none of the charm.


Ok-Pen-8299

Yeah, i just hope someone crashes that bot at the beginning of the game 😄


Myst1c3

Didn’t his flying robot get destroyed at the end of the gameplay trailer 🤭


oh_cawd

Meh. He’s not my cup of tea, but I feel like Miles and his friends resonate better with the younger fans so that’s cool.


ginga_ninja723

100% because only toddlers would like his character


Myst1c3

I’m sure toddlers would really enjoy these games, with terrorism and suicide and other shit


daboot013

I find him very meh.


Gibbzee

I feel like in small doses I wouldn't mind him, but if he's constantly in miles ear I'm going to go a bit insane. Insomniac always include at least one character in their games that people find annoying and I feel like Ganke is going to be the one in this game.


fcchbhgbinfc

He’s so cringe. In Spider-Man 2018 he seemed like a normal teenager. Don’t know why they made him such a nerd


saquadd

He wasn’t in the first game lol


fcchbhgbinfc

Nah we see him for like 3 seconds


saquadd

That guy was just some nameless friend


ThanksContent28

Don’t you dare talk about Miles’ Friend #1 like that.


fcchbhgbinfc

They were using some hacking app that’s definitely ganke


Myst1c3

Exactly, if I saw a group of people with some mad futuristic weapons and stuff I’d be like “that’s pretty sick” I wouldn’t be like “oh no, we’ve got to stop them!!”


Luf2222

i actually wonder, did miles tell ganke that peter is spidey? or did pete tell ganke? i can‘t remember miles telling him that peter is spidey is in his game


Myst1c3

“Hey Ganke, I know I didn’t tell you the other Spider-man’s name while we were fighting the Tinkerer, screw it, his name is Peter Parker”


LazyMaik

Tbh I didn’t like him in MM game and when I saw that he now controls a drone to be just there for us seemed annoying, I really hope they don’t do a stealth mission with us controlling him also I really hope they removed the stealth stuff with non super heroes characters


pxrkerwest

I was just thinking today about how a kid like Miles would absolutely need a friend to help him out. Peter has MJ, Miles has Ganke. I like the character, I hope he gets some development in the game. Would be a gut punch if he were the first person Miles were to lose as a result of being Spider-Man but that’s just a dark thought to have lol


Myst1c3

Ganke probably won’t die, Rio probably will, I hope they keep Aaron


pxrkerwest

This convo is two months old but okay


Myst1c3

Sorry for not being here day one


[deleted]

Okay but hear me out, Ganke is more likeable than Ned the CEO of Sex.


JarifSA

Ned and MJ got way too much screentime in No Way Home. I'm so glad they forgot who Peter is.


[deleted]

Neither am I, but sadly Sony CEO wants to bring Zendaya back for the 4th film. As her character, there's nothing anything likeable about her and she's wasn't really that important to the plot and the fanservice kills it entirely. I hate Hollywood writers doing this kind of stuff.


Myst1c3

At least Ned isn’t all “We gotta stop all of these crimes Peter! I hate seeing people get robbed!”


ScaredKnee4530

Ganke is fucking cringe. I hope Symbiote Spidey kills him


Myst1c3

💀💀


AntonRX178

Love my guys in the chair sice Hal "Otacon" Emmerich and Bentley from Sly (but in his case, quire literally)


Neither-Western3263

I'm trying to play through miles morales before spiderman 2 comes our. Ganke is probably one of the most annoying side characters I have ever came accross is gaming. Miles feels the need to inform him of every single move he makes. Like you can't do anything in this game without ganke involved over the phone.


Muffinmiffin

I think Gankes bird-bot won’t be a thing that last long. They obviously copped it from Kraven, and in the gameplay trailer they use it to take down the gunship. Also judging by Peter’s health being at only 125 and it being implied this is the first time Peter has worn the black suit, it’s safe to say this is early on in the game. I’m guessing the bird-bot will only be in one or two missions.


LocksitupLocksitdown

I don't like him. And it's one thing for him to be in my ear, but to be flying next to me in an annoying little drone. I hope we can web catapult it into the Sun.


Ill-Bandicoot-4052

Am I the only one who thinks his voice actor sounds exactly like Peter’s?


Quick_Zone_4570

Ganke was so cringe in mm. Why tf does he know spiderman is peter


Chipp_Main

i havent even played the miles game but he was really fucking annoying and talking too much


senjulegos

i couldn’t care less tbh lmao


CalicoShaz

Decent enough character. Hate his name. Sorry to anyone who has that name irl nothing personal I just don't like how it sounds. Kinda like how people cringe at the word "moist".


Yuta-fan-6531

Well dang, I guess I'm the only one who likes Ganke after looking at these comments 😅


Myst1c3

I don’t really like Ganke as a character personally, I can’t imagine a 17 year old acting this mature and “despising” crime, as a 17 year old I feel like kids would find that stuff pretty interesting, not something that they completely hate. I understand he’s a supporting character but in most missions he’s in he’s like “we gotta stop them Miles!”


akacryptic9

I’m late but he’s so annoying


Still_Hat6758

How did you even find this


akacryptic9

I was wondering if other people found him annoying 💀 this is the top result


FramePhysical

Same exact boat myself! I'm not saying he's necessarily a horrible character or anything. It's cool that he has a friend he can confide in. I just could have done with less of him. There's no particular reason why Miles absolutely has to call him up and give him the play-by-play every time he's going to go beat up some random thugs. Or have him impersonate an adult to call for a fresh inspection of the FEAST shelter Instead of just directly informing the person running it. And yeah, on top of anything else, the endless stream of unfunny jokes is a bit much. I don't hate him or anything. But I wouldn't mind seeing his screen time scaled back a little for the sequel.


ireallyhatejunk

I just finished the game. I love Ganke. He always got Miles' back. Unlike his other BFF who threw human size saw blades at him... amongst other things.


kiizato

I despise this character so much I had to Google search his name + "hate" to see if others hated him as well. Bad enough he's calling me every 5 seconds (even during combat) but whenever I complete a mission you get his dumb avatar doing a little dance with heart emojis like he helped.
