I tottally forgot about Drax with my DnD comparisons! He was probably standing still and I missed him. He's the player that never learns the rules of combat and RP, chose Barbarian, and always wipes the floor in combat!

I think MCU Mantis will eventually become more similar to this version of her.

Hey man, could you do days gone at some point, I feel it’s a really under appreciated game that needs more love

[@TheAussieJPLoco93]

During your review you mentioned you wished your PC could run the game with Ray-Tracing, just found they released a Ray-Tracing Upgrade Patch for the PS5 / XSX versions, assuming you have a PS5 or XSX, might be worth replaying again. Also if you haven't already, I highly recommend you play Alan Wake Remastered, would love to see an 'Everything Great about Alan Wake' video assuming you enjoy it, which I believe you will.

[@dylanhawkins385]

27:30 Oh man then that means you missed the dialog option with Drax. I don't remember what it was but if you find an item Drax will talk about how he went after and fought Thanos. He dosen't know if he did or not it ended in what seemed like a stalemate, but the ones that saved him said he killed Thanos. But Drax says that his gut tell him Thanos is still out there and waiting.

I love how Star-Lord feels like perfect balance between the pre-Gunn movie “war veteran that’s mentally and physically exhausted after sacrificing everything to save a galaxy that’s constantly and seemingly _trying_ to kill itself” Star-Lord, and the post-Gunn movie “loveable idiot who’s nostalgic for 80s music” Star-Lord. It’s the perfect way to hook diehard fans of the classic comics as well as casual fans who only know him as Mario- I mean Garfield- I mean Chris Pratt

[@matheusmoreira9951]

Yeah, that's something I appreciate in the game. THey could've easilly just followed the MCU bit for bit, but instead they took elements that more casual fans would recognize from the movies with elements from the comics. Loved how they pulled so many references across the cosmic Marvel comics into this game that could've easilly just been "Let's regurgitate the Gunn movies but without the actors licenses and his writting".

[@garfieldunderpants9914]

People really need to give Chris a chance as Mario. Charles Martinet never voiced him in any TV shows or movies. This really won't be different.

There's a collectable you can talk to Drax about where he reveals he used a form of "magic" that fueled his rage and brought to him his deepest desire "revenge on Thanos" but he goes on to say that he blacked out with the last punch. He's pretty sure Thanos made it out alive barely just like he did.

[@kevind3974]

it’s also stated that he actually fought him twice and both times had questionable endings to the fight. When you get all the dioluge about him you understand why he’s called the destroyer.

Until he snapped out of it (ironic since he later falls to the promise that would have started his fourth tear thru the galaxy) and turned himself in he was a fucking monster.

I love that there’s a scene you can miss when you walk in on gamora meditating surrounded by dolls. It’s a cute and funny scene but sad once you realize that gamora just wants to be a normal person. She wanted a normal childhood with a sister she didn’t have to kill. So she surrounds herself with dolls and stuff because she wants that innocence of childhood back

[@Montesama314]

Gamora's initial quirks, which I already liked, only made her more interesting to me after getting her backstory. "Wow, Gamora really likes puns. Funny, but I wonder why the writers took that road... Oh, THAT'S why she says them... That's really messed up."

[@themage6492]

The characters complaining about you going off path is actually a nice touch. Can get annoying afterwhile to some, I assume, but it's also immersive with the fact that you're doing something that would actually annoy people in real life without restricting the player from doing what gamers do in games.

[@Kiboune_YT]

Also they recorded tons of additional dialogues, just for this detail. And sometimes Peter says he wants to get higher to survey and characters appreciate this

[@sarthakkhare9843]

I definitely fell in love with these characters more than the MCU version, especially Mantis and Drax. His MCU counterpart is way too silly and I never take him seriously and he just seems incapable of being effective in battle. Here he retains the best of the humour and is a force to reckon with who (allegedly) killed Thanos

[@PR-xm5zc]

Agreed Mantis was like useless in the movie, she was awesome in the game and actually pretty funny, the part where she keeps talking about how many time Rocket drowns had me rolling. Drax was so great Star Lord -"actually it changes everything....the most deadly woman in the galaxy just admitted.. she loves us 😏" Gamora - "I did not" Drax- "you did..you said you were in love with us right after the part about killing your sister" Gamora- "I said I enjoyed your company" Drax- "that is the Katathian definition of love"

[@Bluejay-jg6hz]

I was really indifferent to the MCU version of Gamora so I was really surprised when the game made her a funny sarcastic assassin who likes dolls (Probably because she never had a childhood) . Then you have her come off as cool without it being dark or sad or edgy. Love it.

[@jahnybravo2168]

Thanos gave her and Nebula dolls when they were younger. Then once they were attached to the dolls, took them away as a lesson to never get attached to anything. So once she was free she started collecting them. It's part of the dialogue you unlock if you buy her the doll from the Collector on Knowhere.

[@PR-xm5zc]

The part at the end cracked me up and also was sad, when she talks about killing Nebula Star Lord -"actually it changes everything....the most deadly woman in the galaxy just admitted.. she loves us 😏" Gamora - "I did not" Drax- "you did..you said you were in love with us right after the part about killing your sister" Gamora- "I said I enjoyed your company" Drax- "that is the Katathian definition of love"

[@ApexPredator1000]

Easy GOTY for me. I never laughed and cried so much in a game before. I felt so attached to the characters and what they were going through - I even cheered at the screen when we turn to tell Drax "Let's go get Fin Fang Foom!" The joy and excitement he had. The huddle Mechanic was amazing - I fought a Giant Space Dragon to "Don't Worry be Happy" and the Church Leader to "Never Gonna Give You Up". Each track either hypes you up or leaves you on the floor laughing. Honestly my favourite version of the characters- a little mixed for Mantis, as I liked her Telltale version a lot more at first as like the little sister must protect figure, but I appreciated them giving her the Martial arts knowledge she had in the comics, and her cute happy delivery of really morbid lines was such a delight in those segments of the game. Brilliant direction to keep the spartax origins for Peter from the comics rather than the ego stuff for the films, as it's something that can keep on expanding in later stories instead of removing like in the second film. There's just so much to say and love about this game and I can't wait to see where they go with it!

[@jahnybravo2168]

Oh my god, my excitement was right up there with Drax when they finally decided to go after Fin Fang Foom. When Drax mentioned he wished they went after him in the QZ zone I was like "oh dope reference, wouldn't that be a dope ass fight to do." Then that moment happened and I was like "holy fuck it wasn't just a reference, this shit is actually happening!!!" I couldn't wait to fight Fin Fang Foom. Haven't seen him included in much media since that one fight in Ultimate Alliance, and this fight certainly topped that one

[@Qarth56]

That moment is so great. Especially as it comes at a point when it feels like the game is heading towards the climax then suddenly FIN FANG FOOM BABY!

[@stoovs9359]

I don't think the scene with Drax and his family was alluding to him killing his family, it's just to destroy his grief and the illusion entirely like how Peter had to kill his mom to break the spell. It's Drax confronting his greatest grief and trauma and I think it's absolutely beautiful.

[@tenaciousbiscuit9927]

As someone who's lost people in my immediate family, watching Drax reconcile (I think I'm using that word right) with his dead family and move on from that pain was singlehandedly the hardest thing I've watched in any form of media. Full frontal emotional breakdown and I lived for it. This game is fantastic.

[@GOONER.1886]

Drax and Nikki are so well represented in this game especially the way they deal with grief. I know there are some days where you would do anything to have them back but you know it can’t be done. Draxs longing to see his daughter and wife feel and look so genuine and his pain in “killing” them is so brilliantly conveyed. And Nikki actor(don’t know their name) is so good at portraying a distressed child who tried to prove herself to her mum only to lose her and wishes she had the time to spend with it. I know I wish I had the time to spend with my mate.

I like to compare Raker's death with Starro's death in Suicide Squad. Starro's last line, just as they defeat him, is something along the lines of "I was happy, floating through space, staring into the darkness." and it's his last line that makes you feel bad for him cause you realise he didn't want any of this he was taken from his home and was forced to defend himself. With Raker, we know his motavation is his son to come back to life, but we sort of forget about all that under all the grandiose and fighting. When he sees Magus and talks about his son, it all comes back to us and his good intentions with trying to cure death essentially but being used by Magus.

Just finished the game last night, it is so amazing. One part about the story I really like that wasn't mention in this video was the Galactic War that ended some years prior to the game but the events of it is the reason for everything that happened in the game; from Peter getting space-napped what lead to Warlock founding the Church and getting corrupted into Magus. While that stuff alone is a good reason, the real reason I enjoy the inclusion of this Galactic War in the lore of this game is that reading about it in the various articles of the Compendium (the in-game database for any players interested in the lore stuff) that the game writers took inspiration from the Annihilation comic mini-series, keeping some the big stuff (like Richard Rider leading the resistance, Drax killing Thanos) but changing some things to fit with their story (Chitauri being the big bad and Rocket being created as a super-solider for the Kree during this war). I feel like this was a smart move on their part because the Annihilation series was not only a great comic event (seriously, pick it up and read it) but it was very influential on the state of the larger Marvel cosmic stuff and the event in it and it sequel lead the formation of the Guardians of the Galaxy as we know them. Also reading it back in high school around the time the first Iron Man movie came out is what lead to me to actually go and read comics period, so it was nice to see that series wasn't forgotten.

I'm absolutely buying this as soon as I have the means to. What really convinced me was that scene between Peter and Nikki towards the end. I've had a lot of the same feelings that she has for a long time, most of them because of childhood trauma. And being a child experiencing those things is so confusing and scary. You know the feeling is there, and you don't want it there, but you don't know how to get rid of it. So, you'll lie to yourself because you aren't old enough to really heal. All you can do at that point is cope. And just hearing her say that she would rather build a lie to convince herself that her mom is coming back, because it's better than facing that she isn't just broke me. I've had those same thoughts and feelings towards my own mom (and childhood), and I still do to this day. I'm still working on the moving on/letting go aspect of healing, which is going to take a lot of time. But hopefully not too much :)

@GamingWins It's been a while since GOTG was released so I hope this comment finds you. For various reasons I did not get to fully watch your "Everything GREAT" video the game until recently. I felt compelled to message you because... 1) I'm so happy the game resonated with you and 2) I've yet to hear someone define how profound the Nikki scene was with such clarity and eloquence. It was truly something to experience from both a viewer and creator. There was not a dry eye on the PCAP stage the day we shot that sequence so to hear your experience and your added insight having had a theatrical background was wonderful. Please keep up the great content. I love watching these videos.

Just found you channel and I love it, I don’t know if you do requests but the campaign for cod waw was always something for me as a kid, completed it almost on every difficulty and still to this day it’s my favourite campaign

[@mikeysansone8724]

I played this when it first came out and got it for my birthday. The scene when he tells her about the candles hit me so hard cause my mom taught me the same thing. It helped me cope with the loss, and these days a lot has.

[@OMGWhoAreYou3773]

Being able to pull-off a combo also feels so satisfying in this game! Groot's Entangle + Rocket's Gravistick Grenade + Starlord's Eye of the Hurricane + Gamora's Shadow Strike + Drax's Pound and Pummel. This was always my go to at the start of an enemy wave(especially near the end of the story), and it really feels like they're working as one flarkin' unit!

[@spider-fan1761]

I was thinking about this video today and just found out you already uploaded it

[@hunterdramora]

you talking about how this game made you feel emotionally reminds me of my journey through ghost of tsushima, that game has seriously impacted me even long after finishing it, i hope more people get to experience what you and i did.

[@gwenfairholm8080]

"I will cherish the time that we had, and not resent the time that we lost" I lost my brother a few days ago, and I've been beating myself up for not spending more time with him when I had the chance. I think that quote is exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you for winning it so I could hear it

[@3ftninja132]

You are what this game is to the reviewing scene. A breath of fresh air and complete honesty with so much personality that the game might as well have been written by yourself. No pushing a narrative, no pumping BS because it's what the publisher would want the reviewer to thing... An honest thought of what the game, whatever the game is, and what's so good about it. Are you perfect?, no, no-one is, a Space Rider With No Name, A Bit of Good (A Bit of Bad).

[@TheCosmerenaut1]

Im just gonna go ahead and say this, I been watching since 20k and it BAFFLES me that this channel has under 100k subs. Keep up the incredible content bro!

[@jacksonthompson1450]

I really love the little details in the characters like how groot is the first to notice the fog clones but doesn’t say anything it makes everyone feel like real people.

[@Getroy]

Lady Hellbender and Cosmo coming in clutch plus the whole guardians changing into the gold outfits was so flarking amazing. Felt like an Endgame moment.

[@TheAussieJPLoco93]

Yo GamingWins, if you haven't already, I highly recommend you play Alan Wake Remastered, would love to see an 'Everything Great about Alan Wake' video assuming you enjoy it, which I believe you will.

[@KingNoNamer]

You do a fanatical job at making people care about games. For example, I played through this game and I really enjoyed it. Hell, I beat it with the hardest settings in like two days and want a second. But the way you describe everything makes it hit 10 times deeper. I appreciate you

[@jackhammer0228]

Two other things I loved were that peter played a bard in his dnd game on earth which you can find in his room, and the fact that I just instinctively released the soul stone to win the bet.

[@BadAssXerx3]

Lady D and Lady H are both good, Dimitresku is squishy and Hellbend hard as stone. Great Video

[@SigmaGaming123]

I’m gonna say it here but I’m sure someone already did, Drax is unsure if his battle with thanos truly resulted in Thanos’ death, there’s a conversation you can have with him based on a collectible where he says he gained the power to sense thanos, went and battled with him for days when they both were on deaths door, Drax dealt a final blow then woke up somewhere else, his head says there’s no way thanos survived but his heart says he is still out there somewhere, hiding to weak to return

[@alexkanel5282]

Ohhh this game! Thank you man for making this video. What a story!

[@bradleywhitlock5842]

Played asap, right up there with you when thinking of this game or playing it again

[@eqWillibrium]

I’m currently streaming the game on Twitch and I’m at the point where you meet Alexis Sawpact. I already had the game spoiled before this and I love your stuff, so I’m just here for the ride

[@GabrielMedina-jb9lk]

hey man, amazing video! Only wish that you talked about Quill accepting the promise and ending the game there if he does.

[@thejoehenryshow]

I literally just beat the game the day you uploaded this. I'm so excited super enjoyed this game

[@Ryangubbs]

Thanks for sharing your feelings regarding this game. Experiencing your emotional response with these scenes enhance my own.

[@otiosus9152]

As always a grade A review. I would really like to see your commentary on Observation in the future

[@darkecofreak23]

I love that you used one of my favorite lines from Rise of Skywalker.

[@nicholasverduzco6180]

The Adam Warlock reminded me so much about the Darkness boss battle from Skylander SuperChargers, even the credit scene.

[@BRKCHNFLD]

I’m from Missouri too, and seeing Star Lord represent is awesome!!

[@juwaunej9196]

I was long waiting for you to play this game and review it. This game is great and I was really excited for your video

[@kadecoleman4104]

16:06 I wish he would’ve stopped for a min and talked to some of the aliens and the street vendors, i would love to see the interactions between Quill and the aliens 😩😩

[@keganlocke1824]

So I clicked on the video cuz this is my 2nd favorite game ever and I love that other people give this game the recession that it deserves. (BTW love your content and I hope you have a good carer on KZbin)

[@Barbossa-vg8gx]

Thanks for the video and making me wanna buy this for my birthday! Really thirsty for some good stories which is what I’m usually always looking for the most in a game

[@collinlansdell4166]

Been listening to the album for a week and seriously how is every track a banger

[@chelseaklinge5743]

my favourite scene of the game is that is not part of the main storyline its when on knowhere (the first time) if you walk to the rift drax is standing there and you have a beautifull conversation about both peters and drax their loss

[@redcapo011]

I need to play this! For the story, but mostly the music!

[@sca8217]

It was really smart of Eidos to capitalize on the team mechanic in this game not just for combat and platforming but also for general team interactions. Such as Rocket's sarcastic occasional "pewpewpew" when Peter would shoot at those worm hive trophies, or as in this video, Nicholette chiding Peter for deviating from the path to collect something, a scripted dialogue that may be completely avoided in some playthroughs. I also absolutely loves the fact that each costume comes with a precís of not just the furst appearance, but also the name of the artists, editors and cover artists. Very nice to acknowledge the people who made these characters.

[@feroxfire4128]

I have consumed and loved so much Guardians of the Galaxy content ever since I watched the first MCU film. But god damn are these iterations something else. They take the charm from the films but with so much more character and really bring out the best these ‘broken’ characters have to offer when it comes to the themes of family, finding your place and striving to change for the better.

[@shadowanderson2004]

Dude I absolutely love the songs from space riders. Ghost pulls the heart strings man.
