“Drax is like Kratos, if Kratos took his meds,” 😂😂😂
17:20
Kratos- "BOY I need my meds"
Me- "OK but,.. where am I supposed to go?"
Kratos - "in the direction of MEDS! boy"
This is an even better joke with the Christmas special
Drax was created before Kratos
@@deandrefontenot8634 that is irrelevant. Do you not understand the comment??
If you decide to sell Rocket, Hellbender will decline the offer and say she would rather buy Groot. Because of that you would have to fight your way through her fortress instead of sneaking. Yes, not all of the decisons matter but quite a few do have different outcomes.
I personally loved that decision cuz groot gives u up even tho he does his best not to😭😂😂😂😂 he’s just so innocent
Yeah i went with Rocket and seeing this i was shocked at how different it was
And if you offer rocket and say he is cute, rocket flips off and starts shooting and blows the whole plan, so the scene with Groot dont even happen.
It also changes the location to find some skins for characters
I loved Mantis so much more in this game than I do the MCU, I don't even count her really as part of the Guardians.
I did too in fact. I liked Drax,Gamora and mantis more in this game.
@@Zed_4445 Why Gamora? She barely does anything in this game
@@jakespacepiratee3740 I think she has more character then you might think but if you disagree that is fine.
@@Zed_4445 She really does, and I also liked also that she had trust in Peter. I noticed every time things got dicey for them she called on Peter for what to do. This was never shown in the MCU.
@@jakespacepiratee3740gamora has the best arc in the game.
Cosmo deserves the removal of a sin for every puppy.
Preach
Agreed
Now, when you say "underperformed in sales" do you by realistic standards or Square-Enix's comically unrealistic expectations?
I’m sorry but sinning the Guardians for talking and for calling Star-Lord different things is insane
No matter your opinions on the game, you can’t deny that the voice actors *earned* their paycheck.
While the game doesn’t really go into detail even if you get the right triggers for the dialogue it’s actually Peter himself channelling power through the guns not the guns themselves to do the elemental stuff. It’s basically one of those you had to have read the comics references.
Thanks! Did not know that!
Interesting so Quill has power, but it manifests *through* the guns then?
@@PBart7 Sort of yeah.
Marvel's Avengers is responsible for this games failure
If there's one thing i will fondly remember this game for is having "Dont worry be happy" as my final boss music XD
Also while the ending is the same, events of the final mission are changed depending on your choices, such as reducing encounters against enemies, and the are certain dialogues choices that will be "remembered" and called back to at a later point in the story
Mine too and I was so mad... I wanted never gonna give you up lol
i got rick rolled im so mad lmfao
I got "I Need A Hero" for my final fight
@@xaviergonzalez5830 I got hit me with your best shot
No sin off for Cosmo??? I LOVED HIM!
Dartigan is a huge Anti-Communist so it makes sense he hates Russian Dog
I think he is good boy
Best dog physics
I think the characters were what really made the game great for me
Gameplay was just fine for the playtime. Worlds were linear but great to look at, the story was just fine too.
The characters were awesome
It was a perfect one-one game. Highly enjoyable and ended when it was supposed to despite its flaws.
Silent Hill Homecoming
Bonus: count how many times the game references the main character as being a soldier from the army
The classic videogame trope of a otherwise non-combat main character having intimate combat knowledge: They are a Veteran of some War.
There is a reason why Quill doesn't grow up emotionally. It is called Arrested Development, and is the psychological condition that can trigger due to a traumatic event. You stay the same age emotionally from that point on as a coping mechanism.
And I learned that from a JJ Abrams show
Huh I thought it was a show
Are you serious
@@miminoran8948it’s a real thing. They’re not just making this up.
Modern entertainment be like:
"We spent a billion dollars making the most beautiful vistas ever put to screen."
"Neat! What's the story like?"
"Story?"
I actually really really enjoyed this game
I loved this game. So much fun and had some great voice acting and deep cuts to classic comics characters
Yeah the character interactions are what makes this game great especially when you mix and match their attacks with full upgrades at the ending
@@Lonewolf360gaming Yeah the soundtrack was epic too.
@@Lonewolf360gaming don’t forget the costumes🔥 they where amazing
@@bZman listening to never gonna give you up while fighting a dragon was the best experiences no other game can replicate
@@Lonewolf360gaming I know right?!
I only stumbled upon this game because it was on sale on Steam and immediately bought it. Didn’t know it was being developed or even released ngl but I was craving some GoG content. While the fighting was indeed a bit frustrating, the banter between them, the voice actor’s delivering and the story is nice. I’m pretty sure they’re adapted with the banter and personalities off the movies more than anything else, so them calling Peter by different names is pretty in line. In conclusion this is a great game for what it is.
Fantastic game, a real pity they released it after the flop avengers game so people were scared to buy it
@@mrdee2454 absolutely it deserves an honest chance this turned out really well
13:42 If you try to sell Rocket Lady Hellbender will just laugh in your face and mentions she would rather bought Groot, Rocket freaks out and Guardians have to fight back while robbing her on the fly.
Interesting video but I think that you got some things wrong.
Thanos being in drax’s mind makes sense since His family died to thanos. In early parts of the game he shows and tells that he has not gotten over thanos yet.
I also disagree that Gamora caring about Nikki felt tact on it actually makes sense. I would also say that she has more character than being the daughter of thanos but you can argue that some of those details are more subtle and you have to find them on your own.
Dartigan possibly felt they were tacked on because he might not have gotten his hidden friendship level with Gamora high enough to get all the personal chats with her.
@@TheAndrassa yeah I Guess some of it is easy to miss as well as her dialogue during the walking sections.
@@themage6492 Yeah
Serious question, No shilling to be found: How the hell did you avoid seeing anything in the MCU?
How often do l make jokes about chemistry? Periodically.
2:55 holy shit that would add a lot of depth to his character. Make his obsession with 80s Pop culture be his desperate attempt to keep ties to Earth & more importantly his Mom.
I think that Drax, Gamora , and mantis are better in this game than in the mcu.
Why?
@@jakespacepiratee3740 I think they have more depth, character and personality than in the movies.
@@Zed_4445 How?
@@jakespacepiratee3740 In the case of Drax, while he's naive due to his culture, he's not a loud moron. As for Mantis, she seems less annoying than the movie.
That lightning bolt that hit the ship at about 11:30 was some terrible looking lightning
I love Marvel's guardians of the galaxy it was my second favorite game of last year. I want a sequel
I liked the game, it was much better than the premiere at E3 suggested. The only gripe I had was the characters overtalking each other too much and when one got interrupted during dialogue, they never went back to what they were saying as Red Dead Redemption 2 did. I was so happy they focused on a different stone and not the blue one like they overused in the MCU.
For sin 81 at the 27:22 mark, I originally thought this too on my first play through. But on my second one I realized that Drax was talking crazy immediately after the indoctrination scene. You don’t realize it because the gameplay and combat distract you.
The big cult ship was from built during the galactic war when Adam Warlock was leading the cult. The shuttle that exploded in chapter 2 was the only ship he could run on with the few people he had
4:53 you realize they all come from different backgrounds and feel more comfortable calling Quill different things right? Especially Drax who tends to use the more proper versions of names if they’re available.
Hell, your Starlord argument makes no sense because QUILL CALLS HIMSELF STARLORD
6:20 they have no way of bringing the Soul Stone with them as you JUST SAW. And the monster your complaining about isn’t even the one they’re hunting.
8:15 so you only played the game once because dialogue options in this game vary certain in game dialogue or even the the format of entire levels. Which you would know if you played the game again or looked up stuff on youtube. Also there is more than 1 ending. There’s 3.
8:49 because she’s been studying Star Lord since she believed he’s her dad and thus earth which the Nova Corp can do since they’re…space cops
9:43 he’s saying she looks older than she looks not that she looks attractive. The whole point of this section based on YOUR dialogue choices is that Peter is trying to defend Nikki and make her look competent in front of her mother
10:21 yes but if you kept paying attention to the dialogue later in the story he clearly went back because he knows who the Avengers were. Then again who am I kidding you clearly sin games as they go and don’t go back to edit them so you can keep the sin count high.
11:23 but why would they risk several seconds of possible death rather than just landing safely and hoofing it. At least on the ground they’re skilled enough to handle whatever happens in the air of the Milano gets hit they’re all dead or have to get more money for possible repair cost
11:47 this is the worst sin you’ve ever come up with and I’ve seen your god of war 3 video
12:44 wow you can pay attention to the plot too?
13:04 (Edit) as we find out later in THIS video, Quills mom didn’t actually think the guns worked
13:21 wow Dartigan if you did the actual research on this game with a quick TH-cam search you would not only have seen the difference you also would’ve seen that your dialogue choices matter since choosing Rocket makes this level ENTIRELY DIFFERENT
15:02 as Rocket already points out he didn’t want to go on this mission for this exact reason. The only reason Quill cares is because of Nikki and Kor-El so it wouldn’t matter to him about how scary the situation seems
12:33 then why is it a sin now if you just said this current instance isn’t a sin.
16:00 I was unaware you knew the exact distance between that ship and Knowhere. Was there a galactic map in the game I don’t know about. Point is, for all you know Knowhere is the closest place they can go to for help.
16:35 first, another example of a section where dialogue matters. Second, wtf. Bro, are you honestly comparing Quill remembering the most traumatic moment of his childhood and literal WAR stories to the time he met some RANDO in space?
18:21 because that’s how the armor works. Plus they’re pretty though on their own the armor just guarantees success
18:34 you rather every time we come back in time it’s different memories on some Beyond 2 Souls type shit?
18:49 wow you can pay attention to the plot too?
19:02 not gonna retract the sin about Quills mom being irresponsible about giving him guns even tho now you know she didn’t think they’d work?
19:30 oh I’m sorry, do you know that anything she’s saying isn’t the truth here? Cus otherwise she just sounds like someone explaining to her son what happened
20:12 I guess that means his machine can read his thoughts. Remember kids, critical thinking matters
20:44 first…he was a dog raised in Russia, so his only frame of reference for speaking would be Russian. Also, again these characters have history before the game. For all you know he went back and studied earth, more particularly where he came from especially since later in the game he expresses how much he misses Russia.
24:23 it’s not that she latched onto the idea Quill was her dad she just latched onto the idea that she HAD a dad and that Quill is everything she wants in that person she envisions
25:13 it’s what the Magus wants not the Grand Unifier even tho he doesn’t care either way
25:52 tacked on? Why WOULDNT she relate to Nikki they’re borderline going through the exact same abuse.
26:46 evidentially something happened that stopped her from being able to kill Raker. Since she couldn’t kill the guy she was willing to die over, she left.
27:25 well let’s use critical thinking shall we. Both Drax and Nikki already had to be in emotionally vulnerable places and close to the grand unifier before becoming susceptible to his powers….oh I guess that’s it then.
27:41 Wha!? Your choices determine this section of the game!? But I thought my choices didn’t matter!
28:11 it’s astounding how much you have to not pay attention to make the sin counter as big as it is.
29:01 Rockets fear of water was established way back in the Lady Hellbender level he even makes comments about it on the way to her palace, although he doesn’t directly say he has this fear since Rocket doesn’t like sounding emotionally vulnerable.
29:56 oh Drax’s dead family? The one killed by Thanos? That’s what’s keeping them here? Got it
32:06 actually I thought the same thing too at this section.
32:51 well either they die for sure or they maybe die and get an army if they dont
33:04 idk probably call her over when the job was done so she could pick him up herself as she does
33:23 it does, and it’s even explained how she knew to come here, but I guess that earlier sin stays huh.
35:19 but they do serve a function. In universe anyway.
35:53 not really, for starters, her body’s gone.
36:52 probably because she’s more indoctrinated than the others. By the way, ending 2 is here.
38:28 nothing could, she didn’t have the body.
You try too hard. He does this for entertainment, he’s not fully analyzing the game. Its why he’s quicker and able to push out more content than GCN
@@Salamence20SH What’s the entertainment? That he can pretend to be an idiot? youtubers make videos for fun it doesn’t mean their content is good.
Drax eyes changing while he's just staring at you when you're character was sleeping is so dang creepy.
Ya forgot about 0451, which was the door code to Looking Glass Studios' office, the creators of Thief. The code is a way too referenced reference, like for example it's the first code in every Arkane game, except Deathloop, but it still ends up giving you a reference to the reference.
also used in Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I think they were referencing Fahrenheit 451
@@themark443 The Fahrenheit reference thing was actually a coincidence. Just as said earlier, this was code to Looking Glass bureau. I believe one of the LG employees confirmed it in some interview and mentioned the weird coincidence.
@@IDontLikeTheDuckface it WAS originally a Farenheit 451 reference in the first system shock by admission from interviews but morphed into an in-joke for the company and their alumni which includes many people in Arkane, Irrational, Ion Storm, Eidos Mont., Etc
This video was kind of a miss for me, the best part of this game was definitely plot and dialogue. I thought they did good capturing how the team dynamic would work and evolve. I love your channel but it felt like you were being unnecessarily critical this time
Yeah there was one part that he said about Peter, Gamora, and drax that was a miss for me.
in the rocket path of hellbenders fortress, hellbender calls rocket cute, and rocket kills one of the gaurds out of frustration, but never mentions groot
The thing that always gets me is that, no matter the resolution or quality settings, hair is always pixelated up close.
Sins of The Galaxy: A Dartigan Story
I vote for Silent Hill: Homecoming.
Sin: You can't play as the other guardians
Literally finished the game last week. It's really good. Good gameplay but Great dialogue and voice acting.
I expected him to sin the fridge.
I've giving this an upvote because I like this channel. Thought this game was great (except for the combat which is its weakest link). The writing was good, the plot was interesting, the characters were amazing as were their interactions and the levels looked like the leapt off the page of a 1960's or 70's comic book. I highly recommend this game.
Expected a bonus round with additional sin for each "flark"
33:35 Daaaaaaamn it would've been way cooler if Groot just ran his roots throughout Fin Fang Foom's body like a cosmic Kaiju Megazord!!
Dartigan, can I kindly ask why have you lately begun every one of your videos with two-minute long ramblings about your personal thoughts on the game as a whole instead of just getting to the actual things "wrong" with the game? There's a reason CinemaWins and GamingWins save the monologue for the end.
What a coincidence, I just started playing this again and wondered if you'd done a video on it yet.
Given Sony seems to be the epicenter of the MGU with both Spidey's and Wolverine, I could see them buying up Eidos Montreal and greenlighting a sequel.
I saw the Promise being like Reaper indoctrination. Though Mantis may have created a block or thought for it to latch onto to bring him to her planet. I wouldn't say they wrote themselves into a corner, more like a bottleneck. They had a lot to get done to set up the later missions, so we get Drax's and Rocket's character development, find Adam Warlock, plus the addition of Mantis.
Everything with Nikki seemed like they were building to her being Peter and Ko-Rel's kid, but decided not to at the last minute.
What do we have to do to get an Arkham style Daredevil game, huh? It’s really not that big a leap. There’s a huge rogues gallery to play with, an obvious big, bad in Kingpin, heck, Daredevil even has a built in “detective vision”. I promise you no one will really complain that you’re copy and pasting the format. Ooh, plus, bonus points if you throw in a little Ace Attorney for extra measure; let us gather evidence to use in court later.
No one is going to be angry? In wich world do you live?
There's nothing wrong with it 😂 when I spend 40 minutee in the opening of the game just sitting on a bed and listening to a kick ass custom album on a Walkman you know this is gaming perfection
That was my favorite part, I was singing along and surprised they did the whole album.
@@computaterjones I've even got the album on my Spotify Playlist 😂
Saving this to my watch later to watch later but my biggest gripe is that there's a bunch of times where it felt like it was the end of the game and was gonna be somewhat of a satisfying conclusion just for the game to be like "BU WAIT, THERES MORE" and then drag you into another few hours before it did it again
I vote for silent hill homecoming to be your next video
This game was better than it had any right to be.
Great fun but shallow. Hardly worth a 39 minute video 🤣
To add to the collection of games self-roasting themselves
“The game is not over! The game is never over!” - Assassins Creed: Valhalla
“And it was a ffucking booooring game!” - Control
“Har har! You’re just as funny as this game is exciting!” - Guardians of the Galaxy
Any I am missing?
This game was a nearly perfect Guardians of The Galaxy game if only the combat was a little deeper but I'd probably still put it in my top 50 best games.
Was it just me,or was Nikki looking like a blue,Child-Version of Jill from the RE3 Remake?
*Eidos Montreal* developed the Guardians of the Galaxy game, not Crystal Dynamics.
Crystal was called in to help, so he probably saw an article about that
The different names people give peter make sense based on whos calling him. I have people call me different names based on how they know me
Having 3 names i like messing with people giving different names on introductions so this is not overly uncommon for me
Ditto
I don’t care what dartigan says. I absolutely loved this game, faults and all.
have i been living in a cave? i never heard this game ever coming out until rn
God this felt like it dragged so I could not imagine playing it
34:33 The difference between you and Cinema sins is you will bring up 4 good points and sin it once. Cinema sins will bring up 1 good point and 3 attempts at a joke and sin it 4 times. Interesting how you didnt count 4 sins there.
Another video I didnt see until 3 days after it uploaded. It sucks, because I've been commenting this on the last like 10 videos, and I like them all, so you'd think the algorithm would get that I want to watch these
I will never understand why they only let you play as star lord in this game
Like hey let’s make this avengers IN SPACE!!! but you only get to play as the one human with guns
They want to put in little work for all the money....squareenix has been doing this more and more in the past decade....its pushed me away from their products until they get bankrupt and are forced to make a proper sucess
agreed I wanted to play as rocket and have dialogue
Yeah despite me liking this game playing as other characters would've knocked this out of the park
I will not understand why a set-up team like this is NOT a Coop based game like Left 4 Dead or so and write a nice story around it while AI controls them without players but still able to choose your character. Or hell, Lego Games do that still better with so many character choices.
What SHOULD be Sin 5: They get into the Quarentine Zone to hunt a monster they were told would be around an old mining ship. I can buy that a monster would make its nest near an old mining ship, but how would anyone know about it to tell them if its in the Quarentine Zone? The area of space people are not allowed in and which the Guardians needed a seceret code to get in? Actually, later in the game, they find an old guy looking for his god in the Quarentine Zone, so either its not that hard to get into and the Guardians were duped into paying for an easily aquired password, or thats one hell of a coincidence of two unauthorized ships getting picked up in the Quarentine Zone at the same time.
Only reason I didn't play it was because no co-op. This game screams co-op
Quill's guns operate on the same rules as Samus' suit from Other M. I'm gonna add one more sin to the final count for reminding me that Other M exists.
Yay it’s finally here!!! I’ve been looking forward to this video for months!
I really wish I lived in the timeline where this came out before the avengers. Any chance this game had died with that one.
You mean Kratos from 2018? I mean, he does use Medication, but he calls it BOI!
and not to mention they dont even let you switch characters 😭
14:13
I would've removed a sin there
Sarah Levesque
I kind of wish that the game wasn’t linear, but I guess that gave more opportunities for more detailed environments. The bosses and the repetitive enemies is what I had the biggest problem with mostly because it took forever to fight a boss as the first was killed by magus for some reason which I don’t get why it was done so we got hellbenders beast later on instead which was ok. The twin's battle didn’t really last long since it’s interrupted halfway and we never see them again. Fing fang was also way to long and magus was too easy for me.
Honestly i really had fun playing this game. Im a huge telltale fan so this really scratched that itch. And if they added a bit more to the combat it could have been a great game. Unfortunately there wont be a sequel but i think with a few tweaks this could have been a great game.
I think the surprising part is that you did my suggestion...something like three years later and the comment is from five years ago. I love TH-cam.
It's like fucking Christmas every 3-4 weeks.....
I swear it's Mandela effect because I remember him doing EWW telltale Guardians and yakuza like a dragon instead of this and yakuza 0
I don't like this narrative that a lot people push that you only play as Starlord. Yes you only have full control of Starlord, but you also command the other Guardians. This effectively gives you control of the whole team. You're really playing as the Guardians not just Starlord.
As far as combat goes, I thought it was fun as hell and robust enough to allow the player to tackle encounters in different ways. I was always excited when the next combat encounter came up. Everything just comes together so beautifully during the combat encounters: the music, the yelling, the shooting, the punching, the chaos. It really made me feel like i was there and got my adrenaline pumping.
I'm glad that someone else agree that there is an ungodly amount of dialogue in this game that's delivered so horridly that it sours the actually decent gameplay. I have only played this in one sitting that last a few hours, and very very few games have given me a headache while playing, even less of them in a short span of time, and it was all due to how much the characters wouldn't shut the hell up
Fing Fang Whom??
Groot's new power to bring anyone back to life removes all stakes of doing anything. There are no longer consequences for failing to save someone.
im having a revelation realizing there are TWO gamingsins channels
"Haven't watched the movies" is all I needed to hear!
Why? I could barely sit through the Guardians movie.
For Sin 18 - Doesn't Quill have rocket boots? Why didn't he just effing fly?
The Corp shut them off remotely when they got there
The biggest sin should be Peter looking like Troy Baker
The first time i used huddle up, i kid you not, i got fucking rickrolled
Oh and 2 things: A) Guardians was never meant to be coherent and meaningful, just fun, B) Its a game for kids (even if some jokes are above level) :) That makes -50
Wow. You're what I'd get if I order yahtzee crossaw from wish 🤣🤣
This game is absolutely fantastic though all things aside. Definitely stands up there with Marvel's Spiderman as one of the best comic games ever.
You have a pretty solid argument that this is just pokèmon. 😹😹😹
I wanna see the commercial and the link of the 90s video game dartigan is talking on
Care to explain why holding a sword by the blade will cut their fingers off? I have praticed hema for years so I have on good authority that if you don't put force into it you are not going to cut anything. Not to mention there is a whole defensive techinque where you catch the the opposing sword in a downward strike not to mention you need proper edge allignment to cut.
Care to explain why you’re a bozo🤡

The problem with the ppl who have problems with how the guardians look in this game just shows how much of a marvel fan they aretheres 2 types of marvel fans true comic fans and mcu fans the mcu fans have no idea but these guardians are from the comics
Trust and believe I'm not playing no game where they expect me to have the main protagonist kill his mom, why you think I stay the hell away from this game as someone who lost his mom & aunties to breast cancer years ago.
32:09 dogs ARE sentient beings, i.e. they have emotions. I think you're confusing sentience with sapience.
Only sin is, that during pressing a ton full of buttons the right time in combat and music screams at you, the characters give some of there best lines (one time, not the repeated ones)! Sometimes you cant listen careful enough.
Most of those sins are explained by the game itself...
The best part of the game is that you can spend 50 minutes at the beginning doing nothing but listen to the fake Starlord album they made specifically for this. And it's as good as any metal band from that era.
th-cam.com/video/Al9dvndHNrs/w-d-xo.html
technically all of them could count as Pokemon. think machoke and gardevoir
Damn y’all take 10 minutes to explain one sin 😂
I miss the 90s. What ever happened to the 90s?
I hope they make a sequel to this game it was actually so good
Honestly there’s a lot to really like about this game and it’s the best interpretation of Adam Warlock outside of the comics
