plat'd the game, really really enjoyed it. Story and writing was top notch, I felt really invested in all of them by the end and found nobody annoying. Really actually loved Rocket, Groot, and Drax. Quill was more annoying than awesome but that sorta matches his characters in MCU too. By the end I wanted more or a sequel and thats always a great way to finish a game instead of wishing "WHEN WILL THIS END" like Ubisoft games.
I did like how it was its own thing, while it shared some moments with the MCU it brought in a lot of characters I've only tangentially heard about but did them all really well, felt like I learned a lot more about the universe.
solid 9/10 for me, 30 hours to plat and another 10 or so to NG+ to see the different options you could have chosen.
The only bad thing is the collectibles are buggy as hell, if you miss any most of the time you can't go back and pick them up again except in a NG+. And there are a ton of bugs when it comes to interacting with collectibles in the right order and stuff, reloads can fuck it all up.
Not really worth $60-70 but worth a solid $30-40 and definitely a good get on sale, especially for any fans of the guardians.
its a bummer the game isn't selling that well, this is exactly the kind of game people around here always clamor for but we definitely seem to be in the buying minority now.
