It is really a shame that the reputation of the Avengers game overshadowed this underrated gem of a game. I mean damn, the story was suprisingly mature for GoTG and I absolutely adored the characters. Especially Groot and Gamora. I feel like this is what was missing in the movies. Those black marks around the eyes, aswell as the short hair to the side really did it for me and I don't know why. It just looks, more assassin like, if that makes sense. As for Groot, making him even more buffed was definitely the right move. He just looked a bit to skinny in the movies if you ask me. The characters in generell just looked more detailed and better than the movie versions, and that's coming from a huge fan of the movies 💀 All in all, even if it "underperformed", I really do hope that we will someday get a sequel that is equally as good.

Combat was fun and relatively unique for a AAA superhero game. It just felt nice to have a combat system that wasn’t another variation of Batman free flow which arguably was about as simple and straightforward but what actually saved it were the animations and sound effects.

The only thing I truly had a problem with was that the element guns don't carry on to new game plus. Which really sucks because you don't get the fire element until nearly the end of the game

Fun fact: The movie Guardians were resurrected by the glorious and amazing writer Dan Abnett He also made Aquaman awesome and has written countless of novels for the Black Library

In my personal head cannon, Cosmo the space dog is absolutely the most powerful being in all of marvel. Because he is the universe’s best boy

I definitely disagree with you on using Drax's movie version outfit. In fact, I think it's the opposite, this outfit was pretty much the only one that I never used because it felt completely out of place. All the other characters of his race had the same look as his "standard outfit" and he even says "my skin is teal" in the beginning. Giving him the movie outfit just made it feel wrong and out of place. I actually stuck to most of the standard outfits for most of the game because it just fit the narrative the best.

man, this game needs all the praise. I love the fact that they literally ripped the characters right out of their comic book adaptations. and the writing for their characters so damn beautiful, I got so connected to these characters even more then the movie versions. I got emotional, shocked, and hyped through the game. I could tell when one of the gang was a bit upset or in a rutt, they don't act right. or even ignore actions they'd normally do to help the progression. I didn't even play a new game plus only because I knew I wouldn't enjoy it as equally as I did the first time. I may just do it now though, it may not be the same experience, but it'll also be. not the same experience!

I'm so happy I read the 2008 Guardians run before this. I know this isn't a popular opinion, but I don't super love the characterizations and humor of the MCU GOTG movies. This game really does justice to the characters and shows way more depth than the movies allow. It was great to see so many nods to the comics too. You're absolutely right about that chapter select thing though, that super sucks.

This is way late for you, but you gotta force the game to autosave and you can use chapter select. I missed the Rocket costume in chapter one, and went back with chapter select, and was able to keep it by having Quill die on purpose to force a save.

This introduction is just 🔥

You put my exact thoughts into video form on this game, but I’m more interested I. The ogre battle 64 you have in the background, one of my favorite strategy rpgs of all time

Didn't notice the Dolby Atmos section was an ad until I read the video description lol well played!

Had such a blast with this game.

Damn I know this game is easy to complete but damn I didn't expect this so soon man

The only time I ever missed the team boost was when the game bugged out and there was no dialogue audio and my teammates were just staring at me.

I still love the new intro!

I never had a game file deletion, but I can safely say that the part about chapter select is now the way it should be, as I have, on multiple occasions, gone back to a chapter for a collectible I missed, gotten that collectible, and returned to my file to find it waiting for me. Yes my item list still shows it undiscovered, but that is only until I triggered the dialogue for that collectible with the respective Guardian, after which the game recognized it as found. I tested this and found all this out with the mourning candle you can find for Drax.

That intro animation was literal chills man

I played the game with a soundbar with Dolby Atmos, and it sounds so gooood. Hashtag not an ad.

Never knew Guardians was such a cool looking game, might give it a shot! Also I really liked the diting and presentation of this episode!! The casette not quite fitting in the player at the Refine! bugs section was a nice touch

I like the little pop ups. Keep those up

Great video, thanks!!

Loveing the new intro

why dose my entire body shiver for this new intro???

This game was so good, that in 15 min I forgot that they all look diferent from the movies. And it’s because their personality is so similar that you eventually see them as the same characters 👍🏻👍🏻 Great intro man love it ! 👍🏻

I have to say, this is one of my favorite games. I loved that the combat was a simple pick up and play since at the same time, I was playing Dark Souls remastered and this was an amazing reprieve. I loved the store and great connections between the characters and after a while, I felt awesome unleashing the combos of powers. Yes I did notice glitches and technical issues, but when I discovered all the great comic references like Throg, Ryder's Helmet, the Brood cage broken, it's not only one of my favorite comic book games, but like I said, one of my favorites

My favourite part of the game was the giant squid fight to kickstart my heart

I only had a few moments where it slowed down, but no other bugs. Great game

It's definitely enjoyable. Gives me hope for more Marvel games moving forward.

Can I say the new intro is hype as hell!

Wow that new intro definitely has some sauce to it. A+ guys

So, quick question. Have any of the major game issues mentioned in the "Refine" section been fixed in the months since this video came out? I ask because I just finished my first playthrough of the P.S.4 version either today or yesterday (comment typed up after midnight), and I want to know whether or not the problems pointed out for chapter select will persist long enough to rule that out as an option for finishing the trophies.

Definitely gonna play this one based on the review highlighting how good the story is but definitely not doing it multiple times just for the damn plushies haha

Chapter select saved the costumes I grabbed so that was neat

I just finished listening to the Wastelanders Old Man Star-Lord podcast, and I loved it, so I might just pick up this game!

I had a blast with this game it felt like it blended the comic and movie characters together well along with giving them a bit of their own take on them.
