    В диком восторге от игры! Да, линейная, но зато какой сюжет, шутки, графика, атмосфера! Мир кажется живым, насыщенным. Если вы ещё и фанат фильма, то просто обязательна к прохождению!

    Game was pretty solid. Great characters, good story, fun interactions between the cast. However, combat could get quite difficult even on easy mode, the flight mechanism was completely unnecessary - should have been cutscenes (with dialogue choices if needed) instead, and Rocket was insufferable for the first half of the game (he does get better).

    I love the Guardians of the Galaxy in the comics and in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That's why I couldn't help but buy that game. This game has many advantages: storyline, humour, characters, graphic component. But I not very much like fighting, because it can be so boring.

    I would start off by saying that this game had very minor issues that did impact the experience but not by much. There were some issues with the response of the control and stuttering in certain scenes that might result in some very stupid and unfair deaths. The game's optimization is also a bit lacking and some songs kept bugging out and kept repeating on loop.

The VA is top notch and the writing is pretty dope. The humor is pretty much the best part of the game and the interactions between the characters is just hilarious and I could listen to them ramble all day. The Gameplay was fine but very lacking, the enemy and friendly AI wasn't really good and that made the gameplay pretty lackluster and very easy even by the end boss. The story is about coping with loss and moving forward and it was told in a really well manner. Music selection was also pretty great. Overall I can suggest buying this at full price since it is worth it.… Expand

    I fell in love with this one, it gets the good things about the movies and makes it even better, they decided just to take the superficial aspect of the movies and make a way different story and characters. The only "bad thing" that i can tell about this game its maybe the final hour and that the combat system makes the action slow.

    The storytelling is awesome, and it is a rare sight to see this level of narrative in AAA games. Dialogues between characters can be sad and fun at the same time. Combat is not perfect, but the writing is the best part in the game. Almost like a mix between the comics and the movies, and definitely a better version of both. Way better than that Avengers game.

    With an excellent plot, very well developeded characters, and a great setting, Guardians of the Galaxy is undoubtedly a great game.

    The only "but" that I find is that in combat it sometimes becomes somewhat difficult to be aware of dodging enemies while attacking ourselves and giving orders to the team.

    A game filled with good humor perfectly encapsulating the characters. The snarky comments by rocket, the jokes by Peter Quill, the ignorant comments by Drax it all blended perfectly together in an action packed game that took a little while to gain traction. The game has its flaws, clipping/glitching and other inconsistencies. But that didn't take away from the fun i had playing this game.A game filled with good humor perfectly encapsulating the characters.

    The graphics were fine. Nothing state-of-the-art but certainly not bad by modern standards. Throughout the game you can make certain dialog choices, even-though it's not clear what real impact they have on the rest of the game. The combat is satisfying although i wouldn't have minded a advanced skill tree or more weapon choices. The upgrades made very little impact.

    My biggest regret is that the game was extremely linear, i would've liked more freedom and options.

    Liked it much better than the movies (which I didn't hate but didn't exactly impress me either).
    Story's great, the soundtrack is amazing, the banter is real funny and it really nails the camaraderie. And it respects itself, it doesn't force itself to have a lot of combat like other games do for fear of the player getting bored. (Also, I just finished it after    It's a real nice ride.

    (Also, I just finished it after playing Mass Effect Legendary and GOTG is a better Mass Effect game than Mass Effect Andromeda)

    Only flaw is that it's not very long for a full priced game, I really take my time with games, a lot more than the average gamer, and I finished it in 26h.    … Expand

    Eins der besten Storyspiele die es derzeit gibt!

    Es geht linear nach vorne mit kurzen Seitengängen für Materialien, die man zum upgraden und freischalten von Zusatzfähigkeiten benötigt. Man muss aber lange nicht alle sammeln, es kommt nur drauf an wie schnell man sie freischalten möchte und man braucht auch nicht alle, je nach Spielstil eben.

    Es geht linear nach vorne mit kurzen Seitengängen für Materialien, die man zum upgraden und freischalten von Zusatzfähigkeiten benötigt. Man muss aber lange nicht alle sammeln, es kommt nur drauf an wie schnell man sie freischalten möchte und man braucht auch nicht alle, je nach Spielstil eben.

    Meiner Meinung nach kommt es auf den Humor während des Level´s an, die unterhalten sich fast die ganze Zeit und jeder bekommt echt gut viele Sprüche gedrückt. Spielerisch kann man seinen Teammitgliedern Kommandos geben, wen sie mit welchem ihrerer jeweils vier Skills angreifen sollen. Jeder hat im später auch eine Ulimate und es macht einfach verdammt viel Spaß, ein total chaotischer Kampf mit hunderten von Effekten und man selbst hat auch noch eigene Fähigkeiten, die ich aber meist nur im Notfall vor´m Sterben eingesetzt habe. Das normale Schießen mit Starlord macht auch bereits Spaß genug, also auch im Kampf, einfach mehr Möglichkeiten, als man einsetzen kann.

    Das Aussehen der Charaktere war ja gut in der Kritik, allerdings fand ich diesen Starlord schnell besser, was ich auch von Anderen gehört habe.

    Team Schwierigkeit ist absolut genial umgesetzt, das Spiel setzt komplett auf Spaß, es gibt keine Option, keinen Spaß mit dem Spiel zu haben! Man kann zwischen 4 Schwierigkeitsgraden wählen und danach kommen ein paar Fragen, wie stark das oder wie viel Abklingzeit dies und das haben soll, verstellt man auch nur eine Sache, dann ändert sich der Schwierigkeitsgrad in den 4. "Dann eben auf unsere Art" ihr könnt hier vom Gegnerleben bis zu eurem Schaden einfach alles selber regulieren, das ist genial!

    Es gibt noch so einen Teamspezialkampfmodus "Huddle" da muss man drauf achten was die Teammitglieder sagen und dann die Antwort welche diese Wörter enthält auswählen, das hab ich einmal gemacht und dachte mir dann, och das ist mir erstmal zu lang und ich will durchballern ohne auch nur ein kleines Rätsel zu machen und hab´s in den Optionen auf automatisch die richtigen Worte wählen gestellt :)

    Die Story ist auch typisch für die Gärtner die Galaxie, sie kommen in eine schlechte Lage und dann beginnt ganz viel verrücktes Zeug und man hat einfach eine Menge Spaß, mehr will ich dazu gar nicht schreiben, ist echt gut!

    Viel Spaß!    … Expand

    Peter’s flashbacks deserve a special mention. Eidos Montreal went all-out on them, so instead of a cutscene, we get to explore a lovingly detailed place from Star-Lord’s past. [Issue#257, p.48]

    Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy on PC performs very well. It is the best version on a purely aesthetic level. The work done by Eidos to recreate the galaxy, the planets and its protagonists is incredible.
