Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy was a real treat and the heart of the game's story might be its more impressive achievement. In this video, we look at how one changing one character made a huge difference.

I'm a big fan of your review of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. I have a question about the next Marvel game on PS4 and what your top 10 ideas!
There are actually a lot of parallels with The Universal Church of Truth, and New Age Religion alongside things like Rhonda Byrnes' The Secret... the church I used to attend was literally called "The Truth Centre" and the one across town was called "Church of Truth"... weird...anyways, great video!! I'm definitely getting this game!
This game got a better story then all the MCU :D
Everything come together in the end :D
The bad guy actually have a very gud tho bad but sad motive D:
I LUV the Drax story in here, n I didn't like him at all in the movie :D
I wish they did more with Gamora! She was the weakest link for me D:
I never read the comic but I feel the Gamora movie was written better.
I was surprised how much I liked this version of the Guardians. They're great in their own ways, that don't feel like MCU knockoffs. I'd argue this Starlord is even better because he actually feels like a competent leader.
To be honest I love these versions of the Guardians Of The Galaxy more than the movie version, due to the fact of some character choices. Mostly Peter reason of not going back to Earth, and Drax’s more prominent vengeance with Thanos.
And the fact that drax has more development than in the movie’s
@@tobiaslawrence8928 drax is pretty much static at this point. He's pretty much a guest star in his avengers appearances.
They are very much the movie versions, just a bit more fleshed out. The whole vibe is clearly MCU inspired with some comic book elements combined
It's more comic accurate
It probably helps that we get to spend 10+ hours with the guardians at all times, whereas the movies are restrained to roughly 2 hours each.
First time I tried the Team Huddle, I failed it and got Rick Rolled.
10/10
10/10 for Rick Rolling
I've already heard stories of people huddling during the final battle and getting "never gonna give you up", or "wake me up before you go" and a few other songs that don't really fit big bad themes and it just makes an otherwise serious fight hilarious because of it.
@@dragon1130 Thats funny i got every 1s a winner and it was awesome!
You ever remember how far you’ve come after practicing something enough times? Yeah, that was me with the Team Huddle. I went from a Success/Failure pattern to a long Success streak that lasted till the end of the freaking game, and I, too, was getting Rickrolled during climactic battles.
@@dragon1130 I got be happy fighting raker it was so hilarious
The "Don't Fear the Reaper" scene and Peter Quill side conversation with Drax are in my top twenty video game moments ever.
Drax is honestly the best character in this game to me
Mine is when Kickstart My Heart starts playing as soon Quill proposes to go after Fin Fang Foom and Drax jumps with joy
The production design/art direction of this game is mindblowingly insane. Besides the terrific story, I almost couldnt pay attention because I was so impressed with the attention to detail in the worlds they made.
All I heard about this game before I bought it was "It's pretty good, definitely better than Avengers" but that is selling it so short. I'm almost finished the game and I was not expecting it to be this good. It managed the greatest feat of all, which is creating a unique and equally compelling and likable version of the Guardians that doesn't at all feel like it's trying to be James Gunn's Guardians.
I’m on the end credits for the first time right now. This was one of the most hilarious, touching, thrilling games I have ever played in my life. This is right up there for me with Insomniac’s Spider-Man.
I literally just finished this game a couple minutes ago and it was honestly one of my favourite video game experiences ever, I was hooked on every finely-crafted detail and loved how realised the world and characters felt! It even made me so emotional that I cried towards the end! What a beautiful game, I cannot wait to play it all over again!!
Same
Lost my whole weekend…loved it
the MCU could never write that void scene between quill and drax
I actually like the Gamora and Mantis game version than movie version. Seeing Gamora laughing and joking with the guardians makes her feel more like apart of the team. And Mantis is more useful here than in the movies
My GOTY. I wasn't even a big GOTG fan; haven't ever followed the comics and only seen the first movie. But Eidos and Square Enix crafted this video game to near perfection, with the story, dialogue, soundtrack, and game interface. The gameplay is great fun and more varied than I had heard; the abilities and perks are fun to use. How refreshing to have a linear game of this quality this day and age. And most of all the cast is spectacular and make you easily fall in love with their characters; they are the real main attraction.
I was enjoying the beginning of the game, but then, when you're flying away, trying to escape the quarantine zone, and I Ran (So Far Away) starts playing - that's when I knew I loved this game 😁👌
Me too dude!! I was like this is a GoTG song to fly with
I wish I saw more people talking about this game. I just beat it and it's definetly my GOTY.
I wasn't expecting getting so much emotional in a guardians game. There were so many moments that make tear up a little
I hope we get more games like this!! I loved this game so much. It’s been forever since I’ve found a single player game that grabs my attention
One little detail I really enjoyed from this game was how Gamora has a tiny bit of arrested development shown by her love of collecting dolls. In other words, while Gamora's heavily branded herself as the deadliest woman in the galaxy, a part of herself still wants to have the childhood Thanos denied her.
It was such a pure fun experience - no uselessly big open world, enganging but to the point mechanics, great story, fun dialogue etc... it's a self contained experience and I missed a game that's good in this sense
this game has sooooo much dialogue that it pulls u into that world and u feel like ur actually peter quill and apart of the team with the choices that u can make. to me it feels like i got to know the characters alot more in a personal level alot more in any of the movies. this game makes u connect more with the characters. this is definitely my favorite version of guardians hopefully eidos Montréal can deliver on that sequel bcuz this game deserves it. what i love about this game the most is that everything is earn in game there's no dlc, no microtransactions just straight gameplay. took me back on what gaming used to be like in the golden days in ps2 era when none of that existed.
Gotta say, I will say that Guardians of the Galaxy game is right up there as my favorite games of all time, but it is right behind PS5's Spider-Man. The reason that is so is because it gives you the closest and best feeling of what it feels to be Spidey. It's the only game in my life that I still replay quite often, just for that immersion and also the only one I've played to 100% completion in everything. Plus, the story for it was one of the best I've seen for Spidey outta the comics, not ashamed to say that I did cry a bit in this game...another thing that only Spidey did for me. That all being said, Guardians is amazing on it's own right and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Spider-Man had one of the best stories in the last few years.
@@Jozombies115 100% agreed.
@@mugenspiegal7415 It's all relative.
So glad to see you cover this game. It’s undoubtedly my favorite game to come out this year. Hope to see you do a spoiler filled discussion on it at some point.
GOTG is definitely my favourite Marvel team.
They're more than JUST a team, like the Avengers.
They're a family.
Finally played the game after it went on sale for 30 bones. Honestly, would've gladly payed the full price if I knew how much I enjoyed it. I know it's rare to say this about a triple-A game but this might be my biggest surprise of 2021. Loved it just as much I loved the movies. The moment I saw how they showed the title I knew they were going to nail the tone of the Guardians.
I liked it way more than the movies
The soundtrack to me beating the final boss was Never Gonna Give You Up. I feel like that sums up the Guardians of the Galaxy more than any synopsis could.
Almost done with my first playthrough...this game is awesome!
Your video was assembled and presented well, but I will comment you are cowardly to not even dare to speak of the great beast known as Fin Fang Foom.
the name is not meant to be spoken lightly
Ah fing fang foom, that boss fight was great
I would really like a spoiler filled discussion about this game by you, this was really interesting!
This game is fantastic. I loved the gameplay and the story and on top of that it's one of the best optimized games I've played on pc. Ultra settings with rtx enabled is playable and it has the best implementation of DLSS I've seen in any game yet.
I thought this game looked kinda bad but you've convinced me to try it now...if only I had a console to play it on 😅
I think you’re underselling the fantastic work that Jim starlin did for Adam Warlock and the Universal Church
Guardians 2008 is one of my favorite comic runs, so I'm interested in this new game pulling from that.
Gamora best waifu of 2021.
I finished the game about a week ago and I'm playing it again, one of the best game I've played in a while. I'm a huge gotg fan and this did NOT disappoint. 10/10. high recommend, worth every penny.
Loved this game, and am working my way back through to make different decisions and clean up trophies. Agree with most of what you said, but this game is much longer than you gave it credit for. 20 hours for a first time playthrough minimum, unless you're trying to blitz it for some reason.
Did you say Andy Lanning? He was an old friend of mine back in the day, we played Medal of Honor Allied assault! Awesome
LOVE hearing you talk about Guardians 2008. it, Annihilation, and Annihilation Conquest are IT for me. They are the comics that got me INTO comics. I love them so much. and the version of Star-lord in them is one of my favorite heroes.
Yeah I loved DNA run of the Guardians. I hated Bendis version so much.
Rewatching this video and saw your comment. I was late to the game on Annihilation et al., but checked it out sometime after playing this game and...yeah, I absolutely loved it, especially the first Annihilation and the subsequent Nova run (shot him right up the list to one of my fave heroes after previously being "that guy from New Warriors, no, not Speedball"), though the DNA Guardians were pretty solid. I think the only subsequent Guardians run to rival it in entertaining me was Ewing's run, with the inspired choices of Hercules and Marvel Boy in there, though I'm generally a fan of Ewing's stuff (not all, but a lot of it).
great to see some love for this epic game!!!
If I still lived in Philly I would have to buy Nando a beer for this one. A Gladiator reference? Beautifully nerdy.
alright, I’m sold, I know what I’m asking for for Christmas
X-statix was such a fun comic.
I'm so happy you mentioned DOOM PATROL.
Thank you, Nando. I was on the fence but if you’re willing to deviate from your usual brand, it must be special
My 2nd favorite superhero game of all time right behind Batman Arkham Asylum specifically. The Arkham writes ar my favorites and I still need to play Spider-Man. This game is truly something special and was my 2021 GOTY hands down No contest.
Please do a Doom Patrol video one day, what a great show
agreed
I kind of want to flark gamora from the guardians of galaxy game
Gamora is guy, bro
@@mambojambo4870 no
It's a solid 7/10. Gameplay is boring, being able to play as each character might've helped. The slow walking sections killllllll the pace.
From the start i wanted to keep playing but had to quit after the first mission because i have work in the morning
I went and played the Guardians of the Galaxy game because of this video and I LOVED it. Definitely a more favorite characterization than the movies, especially Star-lord
What I'm getting is that the narrative stuff works really well, but for it to work as a *game* I think it should be more than a ghost train ride.
The game play is nothing all that special, but it's not bad. Honestly think of it like Mass Effect: the game play there ranged from bad to good, but never incredible (I'm excepting ME 2 Vanguard here because that was ridiculous and really should be its own game). In Guardians the play is decent enough and even has some narrative ties to the subplot of the team working together better, the worst to say about it is mostly that it can get repetitive and its a bit easy.
I missed saying, really this is more like a Telltale or Bioware title where the conversations are the real game, and the fighting is more to break things up and give some context than the focus.
Well, this game sure rose up a whole lot on my priority list.
great video, but all I kept thinking is, "what is up with the lama?"
Hey Nando, are you planning on doing a Doom Patrol video in the near future? The show needs more exposure!
This game is AMAZING!!!!
*Amazing* game, love it.
If you like floating cathedrals you should really check out 40k.
I'd love to see a comic about mental health that stars Captain Britain and Gladiator.
I'm a big fan of Squadron Supreme. It's too bad they don't get more love.
Fine I'll play it
11:46 That's why I'm saving money to buy this game and of course I wanna fight against those bosses like Fing fang foom :D
11:35 good breakdown
Best 25 dollars i spent on a video game
I won't lie. After seeing Lady Hellblade and her legs, her thigh size was the driving force for me and the plot🤣
this game had NO RIGHT being has good as it is
Hot take, 2008 Star Lord's costume was peak Star Lord design. Change my mind
Agreed! I'm glad that was the look they went with for the Guardians' cameo on Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes
@@aidansuguitan6533 that episode was when I first learned who Star Lord was, and when the movie came out I was so confused😂
Gotta admit, as an older person who has played a TON of video game tie in games over the decades, and of course almost all of them suck, as well as being feeling disappointed by MCU related games that weren't cast with their movie counterparts, even though I understand the costs that prevent it, THIS GAME ROCKED!!!! I mean to the point where the characters in the game were AS engaging IF NOT MORE than their MCU counterparts. How shocking is that?
Bottom line: Good writing makes a good game, not dynamics designed to make me want to reach for my wallet while I'm playing.
Great video Nando! I just wanted to post this if anyone wanted to reply and discuss stuff that spoils the game. So...you know, SPOILERS if haven't played.
What do you think of Ertha? I looked, it looks very nice. Can you shoot a video for us?
For me „LEGO Marvel Superheroes“ is the best superhero-videogame! But you mention some good points.
i reeeeeeeeeally wanna play this game..........but i still cannot get over the fact that you can only command the other guardians rather than take turns playing as all of them.
But the dialogues and funny banters are worth it.
Maybe its time to start trying something new.
I honestly prefered this version of the guardians to the one we have in the mcu, the story was great too
they are very much the mcu guardians just fleshed out more, the mcu influence is there
@@timeyinsholaye9169 mostly in design and aome personality
I liked this game a lot, and I'd love a spoiler review too!!!
great game
...
Dan Abnett writes comic books?
I've read a bunch of his novels and never knew this, neat.
Edit: AND HE ADDED A FLYING CATHEDRAL SPACESHIP
subtle Dan, subtle.
Awesome game...Easily one of the best of 2021.
X-Statix is one of the best marvel comics.
So how's "one spiderous scene" or whatever you're gonna call it going?
11:28-11:37
Uh, sir, forgive me for being rude, but I believe you misspelled the word “cake”.
My only nitpick will always be Rocket's voice. Dont get me wrong, I love his voice in the game. But I just want them to give him his cockney accent back.
Do you know what was a wasted opportunity in the What if series is that there should have been an episode where villains like Zemo, Abomination and Killmonger become heroes instead of villains.
So its a good game
Honestly, I prefer the Telltale GOTG.
I agree that the writing and voice acting was great, except for star lord. The VA sounded whiny the entire time with not much variation. It got cringey. Rocket and Drax were stellar though
You better say drax or your lying
I will say I thought Drax was at least second most improved. They took his movie concept and ran with it to a quality and consistency the movies don't even match. I was admiring how much I liked this version of the character even before his big story beat hit.
(SPOILERS IN REPLIES) What was your favorite "Broken Promise?"
For me, it's hard to choose. Shooting Quill's mom felt horrible, but seeing Drax abandon his fantasy was just as sad. Same goes for Gamora explaining how she broke her Promise so easily.
The writing and acting for this game was just incredible.
This game is hard I’m on the easist difficulty and I’m getting 3 shoted
Personally goth was the 3rd best marvel game after Spider-Man miles morales
Funny how the game and film made GOTG household names.
I’ve only finished 90% of the game and it’s already the best superhero game I’ve ever played
I.m not your favorite 😢😢😢😢😢
Dude, the fact that game has a great story doesn't make it a great game.
Algorithm boosting comment.
Only thing that's not awesome is Peter's haircut. I can't take him seriously with that mohawk on his head.
Um no... spiderman was much better. Great game though. The actual playing of the gaurdians videogame wasn't exactly that fun though. Shooting as petter is not what anyone wanted in a gaurdians game
How tf u don’t like but u like doom patrol? Bruh
What was this video? None of this backstory was necessary to understand your point. It was a 3-5 minute video in 18 minutes.
You’re not “reading” books if you’re “listening” to them. Do you also “read” podcasts?
I don’t think the story was that good… the characters were amazing and that’s why I continued the game. But the story was mediocre at best. I think more inner conflict or a more RPG based story system would go much better then this generic save the universe story. I liked spending time with the guardians but did not care for what they were doing outside the team.
