It's good. It's very well put together. Very frictionless and the opening couple of hours are a slick thrill ride where you're immediately thrust into the heart of the action.
But it has the same issues the main game does, that I think you've highlighted. The combat is merely OK. It is pretty fun, but it's pretty simple. I also think there is a complete overload of gadgets and other ephemera that you can deploy, the majority of which are not particularly useful. You can pretty much just focus on the normal punching, dodging, and the electric punch and ground pound and you're pretty sorted.
As you point out, there is a lot of collecting of stuff. I actually don't bother with any of that, as I just find it pretty boring.
This all sounds very negative, which is unfair, because it's fun! Swinging around the city is great. The graphics are awesome. I like the soundtrack and the main quest is well paced. It's a very solid adventure game. But personally I could lose most of the side quests and gadgets and it would actually feel better and more focused to me.
