Its not really a game, but rather just a story of the Guardians of the Galaxy with some segments of gameplay. I think if there is a sequel they should add more rpg mechanics to more of the guardians (skills, perks, etc) to make them "better" like we got to with Star-Lord. Also allow you to play as the other characters (swap between them) whenever. This could open up different dialog and direction of the game. It was fun, but its a play through 1x then unistal type of game

Ran into a ton of glitchy animations, enemies not spawning or getting stuck in the environment causing me to reload checkpoints quite often from chapter 12 onwards. I'd say pick this up on deep discount because the story is interesting and allows for sequels to happen, just focus on more game mechanics and diversity of playing with other characters and should be good formula

Wanna just sit back n chill n do a 9-5 without doing a 9-5? this is the game for you. plus that TCG card pulling is just way too fun

Been playing this game off and on since test 2 until it was taken down. I am no expert in this game, but it is such a refreshing dungeon crawler game with PVP added to it. Its easy to get into, hard to master and its still just in EA (alpha imho). The team is really great at communicating changes, their philosophy of those changes, will admit "L's" and celebrate "W's". WIth it being back on Steam and this newest patch allowing the migration from Blacksmith (their launcher) over to Steam, is a massive win! If you like PvEvP games that is in the DnD fantasy, do the F2P (demo) model of the game, and if you like the game, drop the $30/$35 to get the full game and be backer

DEMOCRACY WINS! Sony listened and reverted PSN requirement! Now all Divers can Die together!

Previous Review (negative):
Sony decided PSN accounts were more valuable than all the people in the world coming together and enjoying the game together. This is not on ArrowHead to solve, they are merely forced to do this on behalf of Sony. The fact that for months we have all been able to play with each other shows how useless and pointless this requirement is. Its a PvE game, no1 cares about security / griefing / cheating, we will manage as Divers. Hopefully Sony will pull their head out of their butt, but it was a good run Divers. Maybe we will see eachother again in a different form, different game. It was fun spreading Democracy together.

Very fun if you enjoy boomer shooters. Reminds me of a Duke Nukem game vs a DOOM game. The story is fun, but the combat is really well done. The hatchet kills and throws are just so satisfying. Grab this game if you can. 4-6hrs of fun

Missed an old shooter like Doom and Duke Nukem. This has all the old gameplay, look, style, 1 liners, secrets, and i love it. would buy a sequel 100%

This is the biggest slap in the face for the price for a DLC I have ever seen in the Borderlands Series. 1 raid boss, 3 ava missions (2.5hrs) of content and this dumb Arms Race BR wanna-be game mode that is forced down your throat for end game build guns. Gross as hell. Whoever thought this was a good idea, please reassign them to a different position that isnt in this franchise. I am now looking at no longer supporting 2K after this obvious cash grab

Plain and simple, its the pinnical of a military simulator. The community is amazing and mod work is insane. The amount of gameplay is limitless and looks incredible after the latest engine update. Its hardcore and gives no ♥♥♥♥♥ if u are a noob or a pro. The mission editor is out of this world and easy to use. If you have a mission type you wanna make, you can make it and Bohemia knows this.

The only negatives are that some mission types have some terrible scripting optimizations in them and server owners overpopulate their server capabilities and it does affect performance pretty drastically.

Some of my favorite mission types are: BreakingPoint, King of the Hill (KOTH), Wasteland, Wasteland Chernarus, Altis/Cherno Life.

My group is still in the long process of recreating the old ARMA2 mission type "Insurgency", but it is a bit hard since the scripting is pretty complicated.

I have tried to play the other 2 witcher games, but just couldn't get into them because of the controls alone. I was very hesitant to pick the 3rd one up, but glad I did. I did pick this up when it was discounted but would say this is a safe game to pick up full price.

The story was so good and takes a lot of time to get through. I never stayed straight to the main question 100% of the time because I would distract myself with the side quests, armor finding, cave hunting, contracts. I have close to 42hrs+ and finally finished the main quest on the easiest difficulty. I felt the game as a whole was amazing from story, inventory, UI, and mission types were all very vast. I still had a small issue on the controls and fighting animations, but it was so minor, I won't knock it. I was going to start a newgame+, but honestly I want to finish everything in this game, find all the cool armor, do more crafting, etc. The main mission was great, but I really don't want to replay it again at this moment in time since I just finished it. Though I will say, when I do restart, Ima do just witcher powers instead of focusing on sword fighting skills, make it a bit harder and have to strategize more. Overall, i can easily see why this is a GOTY, plus CDPR is an amazing development house and knows how to build games with no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DLC.

I think this assassin's creed nailed the mechanics down on all fronts (ship battles, sailing, hunting (fish), parkour, etc). I felt much more attached to this character as well. The story starts out extremely rough but does get much much better as you play (i think this is with every AC game personally). Edward was quite the interesting character and so was all the side characters. I felt like all the collectables actually meant something in this AC game that I never got from any of the previous ones and maybe its because I felt like they had a bigger purpose in the game. They def were not required but they were fun to get and you got rewarded in a very balanced way. Everything from killing sharks, whales, deer, monkeys, to fighting royal fleets and boarding ships, to taking out massive watch tower like bases, to finding secret bottles and uncovering buried treasure was just FUN! I got sucked into doing these things than actually playing the main storyline. I wil probably keep playing this game even though I am done with the main quests. This is by far the strongest AC game to date in my honest opinion.

Also spoiler: Edward - Father to Haytham's (templar) who is father to Ratonhnhake (Assassin)
