Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy

I was skeptical at first (like I think most people were) because of the disaster caused by the Avengers game. I didn't think Avengers was entirely garbage but once you did the story lines there really isn't anything worth doing. This game however is completely different a huge huge improvement. For starters there are no microtransaction. It's single player only and you can only play Star Lord. I'm only about 3 hours into the game so far but the story is great, it's funny, gameplay is pretty different from anything I've played but still fun once you figure it out. I'd say the biggest flaw is not being able to play any of the other Guardians but even that isn't bad. It would be nice but not a huge deal.

Overall pretty solid game. I would definitely recommend it and say not to be worried after everything Avengers game related.

The story, characters and soundtrack are amazing. I love the characters even more than the movie-version though i love the movies too. I was so invested in the story and the characters. It's worth every penny.

Underrated Gem - One of the Best Superhero Games

This game blew me away! I am honestly really sad that it did poorly financially because that means we probably will never get a sequel.

Here are the positives:

• The graphics are truly next-gen. The game looks incredible.

• The story is super fun with lots of twists and turns. It is incredibly well paced. Expect 15-20 hours.

• Great achievement design. You can get them all in one play through if you are intentional with collectibles (which are not excessive).

• The combat is very fun. You play as Star Lord but command the whole team with special abilities and group combos. It is very satisfying and fun. Ability progression is perfectly balanced throughout the game. Love the combat!

• Movement feels great.

• The villain is awesome and very comic book accurate!

• The cast is easily the best part. You will love this version of the guardians. There is a ton of heart and growth amongst each member throughout the game and their ability progression is tied to them overcoming past struggles. Really well done in the character department.

• This game is also hilarious. I love funny games (Sunset Overdrive and High on Life for example). I consistently laughed through the whole game. Great writing.

Negatives

• The end drags on for a laugh or two and it hurts the pacing of a otherwise great final fight.

• The puzzle design is just fine.

I love guardians of the galaxy (comics AND the movies) and when I saw this game was gonna come out I freaked out, but realized that many superhero games is actually very bad, but THIS GAME... it's on of my best experiences in video games ever ,

the gameplay is simple but feels very advanced , tricky and cool (combat wise) , the story is a straight forward story , with chapters and this is my reason this got 9/10 : because I can see when the story ends.. you know it is 12 chapters and when I was on chapter 12 I stopped playing and had a long break,

but after a while I started to miss these crazy voice actors because they did a REALLY good job with this game like they're life depended on it or something , it feels like they've been sitting in the studio for HOURS just having fun dialogues and added it in the game.

It's no silence if ur stuck and trying to find for example a way out or can't find something ur looking for they will have convos about everything. But not to much and not to little , your never lonely or bored while playing this game , and the story is so different from the films, it's it's own story.

I really hope more people buy this game and gives it a try because I put this on the list with: Fallout 4 - the last of us - red dead redemption.

And I forgot to tell you, if you love rock or just simply everything Peter quill (Star lord) listens to its in the game and the timing on the music is perfect with an elite soundtrack on scenes with instrumentals.

It's not that long but the game is amazing and makes you DEFINITELY wanna play it again!

I was skeptical going in because of how disappointing The Avengers game was but GOTG is a lot of fun. The characters are all done well and have funny dialogue between each other. The story is interesting and keeps you invested. The gameplay is great and combat sequences are a blast. The cooperative element with the team puts it over the top. The game is also visually appealing and looks fantastic. Ready for some DLC. Great game and definitely worth your time.
