    Пройдена отличная игра , с хорошим гемплеем , весёлым Сюжетом. Да к гемплею можно придраться, и снять пару баллов за его простату , Но стоит понимать, что игра вышла без доната , что вышла обычная сюжетная игра коих очень мало , по этому она получает сверхурочные баллы и занимает почётное место одной из лучших игр 21 года . Очень хотелось бы продолжения. А разработчиком огромное спасибо заПройдена отличная игра , с хорошим гемплеем , весёлым Сюжетом.

Even the preview build couldn't sell many audiences about how intricate the combat system and most importantly, how fleshed out the characters in this game are. Not only the 5 guardians, but also a great variety of supporting characters and villains. The 1980s soundtrack (a list of more than 50 songs) just kicks in at the right moment, during gameplay and scripted sequences. The dualsense controller's haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, imitating the exact feel of StarLord's repulsors, just heighten the all senses to an absolute peak level. The performance mode on PS5 is super smooth, although I would recommend testing the quality mode from time to time as well (during exploration sequences), to really get a sense of how much detail has been put into these characters and environment. With the Ray Tracing update on it's way to next-gen consoles, this game is a definite must play right now, and must be replayed for alternative dialogue options that pop-up in almost any situation/action. This game is beautifully crafted from start to finish and is miles ahead of both the movies that portray the guardians of the galaxy. Every next-gen console and pc owner must experience this game first hand, and if you can get your hands on the PlayStation 5 system, then definitely don't play this without the haptics and the triggers enabled, alongside the controller speaker. Besides Arkane Studio's Deathloop, this game is clearly a game of the year contender for me. Expand

    I went in with at best "meh" expectations. I was completely and utterly sucked in after like at most 2 hours. I could easily write a 2000 words essay about how amazing they got everything, but few would be interested in that anyway.

    So let's keep it simple:

    - Brilliant story. Twists and turns, logical progression, reasons behind actions, etc. It's an original story so some of the Guardians have a bit different backgrounds, but it fits in very well. There are no disrespectful changes. I personally would have preferred one element to be different, but that doesn't mean that the story isn't spectacular.
    - AMAZING characters (both design and personality) and voice acting.
    - Superb graphics, animations and art direction.
    - Huge variety of environments, all of them awesome quality.
    - Splendid combat that integrates all Guardians into the fray majestically.
    - Very surprisingly, choices! You have some RPG elements thrown in there.
    - Collectables (outfits + gifts for your team which translate into conversations aboard the ship)
    - Ship combat, and it's highly enjoyable. You can also walk around your ship and speak with the Guardians.
    - BANTER! Excellent, remarkable, funny, character-appropriate banter. And LOTS of it too. FLARK YES!
    - Mature-oriented segments when it fits the narrative, without making it broody, moody or edgy. A perfect mix of humour and "real-talk".
    - A focus on each Guardian in particular. Groot is a bit sidelined but I guess there's not so much opportunity for character development there.Still, he plays an important role and I never considered him an afterthought.
    - Marvelous music.
    - It personally filled me with a childlike joy all the way through. Very immersive.
    - Sometimes it's BUGGY, but checkpoint reload solved it in 99% of cases. I only encountered one bug I would classify as major, but it was not game breaking. It involved a conversation with Drax about a gift I got him. Peter would just get stuck in place and nothing would proceed after the conversation. Nothing I did solved this. After reload, the bug would just happen at the beginning of the conversation. POTENTIAL FIX: only talk to Drax about it AFTER chapter 11. You can't do anything to solve this bug if you have that conversation before chapter 11, but it also doesn't affect anything else.

    I could go on and on but honestly, for this one, there's no point. I've been gaming for 20 years and this is EASILY a 10/10. If you love the Guardians, Marvel, action-adventure games, or any mix of those, just get this one.

    You'll thank yourself later as you're screeching with excitement and pure joy while you experience this game.

    I for one got this game on a pretty nice sale and I'm actually a bit sad I didn't give these developers more money.

    Awesome graphics, funny and smart dialogues, good enough story, just pure fun. This game came out of nowhere for me and it was a refreshing experience. I can easily say that it is one of the best games of PS5. Also the lenght of the game is just perfect. 15-20h lineer campaign with good amount of collectibles and progression system. Plus perfectly balanced platinum trophy. Just perfect.

    great game! The dialogs are so awesome, I found myself smiling everytime I played, also quite or sad moments are well presented (Drax family) the graphic looks stunning, the gameplay is pretty cool (I play it now on Raytracing) maybe the second run I will do on performance mode. It does not match the movie setting but this is no big deal, it tells its own story (Gamora still looks good ;)great game!

The music cannot be better. This game is pretty solid! No MP junk, just a nice single player experience which lasts for more than one run. Expand

    Phenomenal game. Filled to the brim with banter, and I was invested with every character. Great story, gameplay, and graphics. Exactly what I'd want out of a Guardians game. Do yourself a favor and play this gem!!!

    Despite the negative things that me and many others have probably said about this game, I’m proud to say the the developers at Eidos Montreal have proved me wrong, this game is actually really well done and very fun and is certainly a game of the year candidate for 2021!

    The gameplay is also very good.
    If this game was built by rockstar or naughty dog it definitely would have been the game of the year.

    Divertidisimo, adictivo, variado y sobre todo original, Guardianes de la Galaxia es uno de los mejores juegos del año, además es bastante mas largo de que suelen ser este tipo de aventuras en tercera persona y lo mas increíble es que no llega a cansar ni a repetirse, super recomendado.

    Guardians of Galaxy are the real blast that Marvel fans needed after more than mediocre Avengers. The “worst” part of the game is a mere fact, that you are not able to enjoy every single comment in the background and enjoy very well written characters.

    The story is entertaining, and it features characters from the Marvel universe that haven't yet surfaced in the movies, such as Fin Fang Foom, Lady Hellbender and the Nova Corps. Add in the requisite humor and self-deprecation and an eclectic killer soundtrack, and you get one of the most enjoyable games of the year.

    Guardians keeps you strapped in for the ride, and while it does dip once too often, the emotional highs outweigh the patience-testing lows. [Issue#366, p.108]
