Drax and Peter Talking About Their Families - Guardians of the Galaxy (2021)

[@williamnguyen8663]

Best part? If you do this optional dialogue, the epilogue reveals that drax and Peter occasionally get together to remember their loved ones over drinks

[@justinharvey7398]

The epilogue was the cherry on top of one of the best video games I've ever played. It feels too crude to call it a game. It's art.

[@DoneBrokeDatBack]

@@justinharvey7398 Agree with you 100%. I bought this game on a whim simply because I loved the comics and movies so much. I was expecting it to just be, "okay." I had a freakin' blast playing through the entire game from start to finish. Faithful adaptations of the comic characters with their own spin on it. Wonderful writing, beautiful settings, incredible dialogue and depth. The fact it may never get a sequel breaks my heart, man. The studio was apparently bought out and the people who bought it are notorious for liquidating and cutting jobs in favor of profit. Fucking shame.

“I will cherish the time that we had, and not resent the time that we lost”. That line struck me so hard !

[@ThwipThwipBoom]

I can accept that I will die as long as I can make the lives of those I love and care for better. Drax is right. Dying without accomplishing anything is the definition of a wasted life and dying after having made other people's lives worse is the definition of a cursed life.

[@Fi_Sci_]

This was a heartwarming scene to watch, just two people talking to each other about their feelings in a realistic and mature way. Which is surprising considering how comedic the game can be at times. Nearly teared up when Drax said *“I hope your Mother found her way to heaven.”*

[@newfoundwisdom8532]

Usually I'm not one to be torn up emotionally by things anymore unless it's a personal experience that just slaps me in the face but I would be lying if my throat didn't seize up and I nearly broke down and bawled from this, specially when just a few moments before I was both marveling Knowhere and fuming at Rocket being a prick. Eidos when they take their time can produce masterworks. And I hope that if they continue with this, that they put this kinda effort into any future Guardians stuff. While I like the MCU and its own quirks, this was like Snyder Cut fleshed out as a game. The line between "The Guardians" and what I humorously coin "The Gunn-dians".

[@samstern2042]

Even though Drax and Star-Lord are hilarious they are both in a lot of emotional pain

[@m.c.ufan1019]

That had to be one of the nicest things drax has ever said in this game. And I was like: “Thanks drax. I’ll give you a little bit more time and maybe I’ll meet you back at the Milano.” But he then showed up to fight the blood brothers.

[@kevinlevin5088]

This game surprised me in so many ways, anyone here also much prefer this version of guardians over the MCU one? The character development, the story, the gameplay, everything done so well. I still remember I was so in awe when I see Drax standing over the fence, the graphics are breathtaking, and having this emotional conversation, just hits even more. Peter, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot, all are better depicted in this version, love the team, really hope they will make a sequel! Wishlist for the sequel. + Little less linear. + More variants of exploration rewards, not just scraps and costumes. + More depts into Guardians' skill tree. + More galactic monsters and mini bosses. Anyone agree on these? I'm so glad I gave this game a try, and it is now my Game of the Year!

[@jonissues1914]

Here, I really really like everything about the characters more in this game than in the movies, the story, their interactions with each other in cutscenes and gameplay and their designs.

[@usgpillarofark3980]

It was a superb surprise for me as well. As a guy bored with the MCU since a while i found this version of the Gardians far superior: the writing performances...were great. Its a fun game but with a serious tone when it needs it(something that completemy lost me on the MCU are the constant jokes) Really a great surprise. Kinda reminded me of Mass Effect too on some aspects.

The voice cast and voice direction is phenomenal for this game. Drax's voice barely changes in tone but you can just feel the pain and loss in it when he talks about his family. Whoever this writing team is deserves a raise and can hopefully be given more projects. Especially ones where you have a team.

[@justinharvey7398]

"I will cherish the time we had, and not resent the time that we lost." You can hear every ounce of pain and loss in his voice without it ever wavering from that low deep tone. I think I cried at this game in both sadness and joy at least 15 times throughout. I screamed, jumped up, and gasped at every turn. This game is a masterpiece. A true piece of art that should be appreciated by everyone.

They really knew what they were doing with Drax in this game. He isn't just purely comedic value like in the movies. They even removed most of his powers in the MCU. In the games he has a lot more physical strength and often gets serious and says something serious thought provoking. It's not that he's stupid, he's just literal and doesn't understand Earth customs or figures of speech. He's actually fairly intelligent. And Square Enix seemed to understand this. I'm not even a huge comic fan, but even I can tell they did his character true justice in this game. This scene really brought a tear to my eye.

The writers for this game should write the stories for current marvel comics. Cause we all know they aren’t doing great In the moment. Most of them are just people putting their agendas first rather than putting a good story and the fans first. Like for example: in a Guardians of the Galaxy comic, they made Star Lord Bi simply because Chris Pratt( who is playing the current live star lord) is Christian and they simply did that to try to somehow insult him even though he didn’t do nor said anything bad to no one. This doesn’t hurt him but it shows that these current writers, don’t care about the characters or narrative and are simply using the fame it got to push and publish their agendas for a wider audience.
