Who Is Most Likely to Die in Insomniac's Spider-Man 3?

[Winter]

Let's be honest, the thing the Green Goblin is most well known for is being the one who got Gwen Stacy killed. Oh sure he didn't actually kill her that was Peter making a single mistake when he was trying to save her but at the end of the day Norman is the one responsible for her death because she wouldn't have been in the situation she was if not for him.

The Green Goblin is one of the most notable contenders for Peter's Archenemy and is the one who usually causes the most harm to Peter. As I mentioned he's the reason Gwen died, in the Raimi Trilogy he indirectly starts a chain of events that will lead to his son becoming the new Green Goblin that will result in his death. In The Amazing Spider-Man 2 he is the reason Peter's parents left him as a child and is again indirectly responsible for the death of Gwen and in No Way Home he murders Aunt May.

And in the 1048 aka the Insomniac games his indirectly responsible for the deaths of May and Jefferson Davis (Miles' dad) along with creating (both directly and indirectly) Mr. Negative and Doctor Octopus. And if I'm right he will also be responsible for the death of Cindy's mom. However none of this has been or, in the possible case of Cindy, will be intentional on Norman's part it was all just a series of tragic mistakes. Tragic mistakes born of VERY Stupid choices he made and continues to not own up to said mistakes so they keep happening but still, it wasn't on purpose.

But now Norman is making it his life mission to get revenge on the Spider-Men because he blames them for another one of his bad choices which then begs the question, will Norman get his revenge by hurting those close to Peter, Miles like Cindy and if so who will it be?

The characters most likely to die in Norman's quest for Revenge are as follows.

Mary Jane, Rio, Albert, Hailey, Ganke, Cindy's possible love interest or a close friends of hers and Aaron. These are the characters who have the strongest ties to the heroes and therefore the ones most likely to die.

I think Rio and Albert are going to be okay, it would be needlessly cruel to kill off Miles mom and killing off Rio's new boyfriend and possible future husband would also be needlessly mean and just be repeating the plot beats of the first game not to mention the trauma that it would inflict on Cindy.

I also doubt that MJ is going to be killed as Insomniac is clearly trying to have Pete grow up and enter into a steady relationship with MJ. The games almost seem to be calling out the comics on how badly it's handled their relationship I know that Marvel Comics have little to no say on how this story goes not to mention that the romance between Peter and MJ is well liked by fans. Same goes for Hailey, she is just to popular to kill off not to mention the backlash Insomniac would get for killing off a deaf character who's the main romantic interests of one of the heroes.

Ganke is also likely going to be okay as he's REALLY popular with Miles' fans and many love his interaction with Peter.

That then leaves the other 3 options Cindy's love interests, one of her friends and Aaron aka the Prowler. Of the three I think Aaron is the most likely possibility. One he has the most history with the cast and two he's already died in the Spider-Verse films. Aaron also isn't quite as popular as the other characters on the list as killing off MJ, Hailey and Ganke would likely result in massive backlash. While Rio isn't as popular like I said it would be needlessly cruel given and to repetitive for what Miles already went through in the first game.

Now it could be Cindy's possible love interests or a friend of hers but until those characters are actually introduced we simply don't have enough information to come to any conclusion.

Now some of you might want to point out that having it be Aaron gives to much focus to Miles and that Peter needs to be given more focus when it comes to one of his most iconic villains. To which I say, Norman cost Peter his job with Otto indirectly killed Aunt May, indirectly got Peter exposed to Venom which led to Harry becoming Venom and going into a coma and is the reason Otto become Doc Ock. Peter has everything he needs to be more then a little pissed at Norman at this point.

Now I do think that Goblin will threaten and try to kill these characters at one point or another and maybe even seriously injury them but I do think only Aaron will die, likely during a major boss battle where you either fight alongside him or play as him (or both) against Gobby.

That's my guess, what about you?

I really hope they are smart enough to avoid women in the refrigerator that all I have to say about that.
