Guide to Ultimate Spider-Man's first chapter, Father's Pride. Learn how to defeat Venom in the initial boss fight and progress through Peter's origin story.
Alright, so you're diving into Ultimate Spider-Man and starting with Chapter 1: Father's Pride. This is where things really kick off, giving you the lowdown on how Peter got his powers and the whole deal with the Ultimate Universe Venom. You'll be stepping into Peter's shoes, and let me tell you, it's a rough start: no Spidey suit, facing down your best bud, no web-shooters, and, as the guide hilariously points out, your socks are getting wet. Ugh, wet socks.
- 1The Beginning: You start the fight against Venom. Don't worry, it's designed to teach you the ropes. Just get in there and give Venom a few hits.
- 2Spidey Sense Tutorial: After a bit of brawling, your Spidey Sense will kick in. This is your cue to start dodging Venom's attacks. Keep an eye out for the prompts and dodge away.
- 3First Goal: Continue the bash-and-dodge cycle until an arrow appears on your screen, pointing towards a green beacon near the goalposts. Head towards it.
- 4Cutscene & Escape: A cutscene will play out, showing off some cool action. After that, Venom will try to absorb you. Just follow the on-screen prompts to break free.
- 5Back to Bashing: Once you're free, it's back to hitting Venom and dodging his moves until the next cutscene triggers.
- 6Strategic Knockback: Here's a little trick: if you can manage to knock Venom back onto those downed power lines, the fight will go a bit smoother. It's a bit tricky, but worth it.
- 7Cops and Conclusion: The cops show up, and their aim forces Venom back into the power lines. Peter starts to worry about his friend, and that's pretty much how this chapter wraps up.
- This first Venom fight is more about learning the combat and dodge mechanics than anything else. Don't stress too much about winning perfectly.
