Four weeks it takes until the release of Marvel s Guardians of the Galaxy, but we have already tried it.
Until a few years ago, nobody knew the Guardians of the Galaxy outside the comic catch. In 2014, however, director James Gunn brought the troupe of some other heroes to the big screen and thus succeeded a special feat. The popularity of Star Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket and Groot shot on a blow in previously unexpected heights. In addition, Gunn has managed to give history a very own touch, but without removing the general alignment of the MCU films too far. Seven years later, the guards of the galaxy will find their way to the PC and the consoles in an AAA action game of Eidos Montreal. However, we have to draw you a tooth directly: Marvel s Guardians of the Galaxy, as the title is quite simple, has not done anything to do with the movies. It tells its own story and is based purely on the comics, which is why there is no digital images of Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana and Dave Bautista. We were recently able to create a hand for the first time and betray why the films still play an important role.
A new story is told
After a few years of intergalactic war left his footsteps in the universe, the munish together traced heroic troupe tries to draw its benefits from the situation in Marvel s Guardians of the Galaxy to make a few quick toads. They remove a chain reaction of catastrophic events that threatens the existence of the entire galaxy. An important role also plays the corrupted Nova Corps, which should actually be in the vastness of the ALLS for law and order. But a mysterious cult has massively infiltrated parts of the Corps. Against this background, the Guardians of the Galaxy focus on their virtues and expose everything to turn the situation to the good.
Talks are the A and O in relationships
We were allowed to stuck our nose in the version provided by Square Enix in Chapter 5 and learn the own body, which means being a guardian of the galaxy. It started in the spaceship Milano, which serves as a starting point and stroke for the individual missions, so to speak. But you do not have to rush directly from mission to mission, but can also spend some time in the spaceship, because there is a lot to discover. Every character has its own room that can be upgraded with collected objects. That not only has cosmetic purposes. For example, you will find a personal item of Gamora and then talk to her, other dialogues arise as if the object would be missing. In addition, there is, inspired by the films, a music system, thanks to the well-known EverGreens of the 80s by the spaceship pulsation. Again, this also affects the behavior of the crew members. From a certain point of time, a colorful and fairly crimping Lama joins the crew. Why, we do not know either. In Chapter 5, the cattle is already there and drives raccaire rocket almost in madness, because it simply nibbles everything.
What happened to the Nova Corps?
As soon as you looked enough and chattered with every one little, it can go to the actual mission. It takes place on The Rock, an outpost of Nova Corps in All. But even here, the influence of the cult has already begun, the Guardians actually wanted to pay only a punishment to continue to devote himself to the rescue of the galaxy. But first nobody is to see, the outpost seems to be abandoned and that awakens the curiosity of the heroes. Already you are in the midst of action. Although there is a pair of puzzles to release to penetrate into the interior. She always slips into the role of Star Lord, while the rest of the gang operates more or less self-sufficient. However, you can give them orders. For example, Rocket helps to chop systems to open doors. Thanks to the VISOR of Star Lord, you always see what objects you can interact with.
Ballers, puzzles, tactics and elements
After the first doors are open and you are ever deeper into the rabbit construction, the Nova Corps will attend you and sends the first troops. Then the action begins. Thanks to the elementary blaster of Star-Lord, you can get an opponent from the way from the other, while your colleagues cheerfully mix. An active post-charging function ensures that correct timing is rewarded with a more powerful shot and faster reloading and a lock-on function facilitates the goals. In view of the overpowering threat, however, you have to use all your skills. In the version played by us, in addition to the normal blaster fire, mainly the ice element of the weapon was used. Thus, opponents can be frozen and slowed down. In addition, when fighting, commands are given to the other characters, this results in a very stylish, albeit hectic action choreography. Frozen opponent shatters Drax in the Nu, further away withdrawal Gamora completes with her Shadow Strike and Rocket sets, as the name implies, on explosive attacks. Groot, on the other hand, distributes the damage rather large.
And now all together, with music!
There are several melee skills, because it will not always be able to keep the opponents at a distance. For anything, a well-kept blow also helps to the face. Depending on the environment and situation, the animations of Star Lord and Co are different, which gives the events a little more variety. If the energy of the opponent drops, it comes to a small Quick-Time event, where the enemies are very effective.
Speaking of effects, the more skilful and most varied you start at fighting, the faster, a bar fills in the right half of the screen. If she is full, one of the core elements of the fight can be activated: the Huddle. Then Star-Lord brings out his portable cassette player, gathering the troupe around him and tries to motivate music classics from the 80s by means of a small address - in which he cites music classics from the 80s - to motivate or care (the choice is with you). Depending on how your relationship has changed through conversations and other actions in advance to the other Guardians, all or just Star Lord experience a buff in combat. The Huddle is one of the unique selling points of Marvel s Guardians of the Galaxy, because he has been triggered once, does not sound an epic score through the boxes, instead, she is shooting for example to Bonnie Tyler s Holding Out for a hero by hordes of opponents. That s a damn cool experience. which incorporates the atmosphere of the films.
A bit of role play must not be missing
But these are not all skills long ago. In the course of the adventure, the Guardians learn further skills and special attacks. After every fight, you will also receive experience points that you can use according to your own gusto, and there is also the possibility to strengthen existing skills. In addition, Rocket can screw together with found materials a few chic Perks that make you and your weapons even more powerful. In addition, Star Lord has a few jet boots, making the fighting experienced another dimension and not always play on the ground. At the same time you can use this ability to achieve higher levels and explore the levels more specifically.
linear, but still with freedoms
Marvel s Guardians of the Galaxy is a pure single player adventure and, as far as we can judge so far, a fairly linear pleasure. But that should not stop you, even off the way to keep your eyes open. For example, you can experience hidden dialogues if you not only follow the stump of the action. Direct on arrival on The Rock you have the choice, whether you immediately want to penetrate into the inside of the outpost or makes a short detour and follows Rocket, who is worried about his spaceship, which is completely absorbed after landing automatically into a parking lot will. Even such scenes affect the relationships of the characters with each other. In addition, all calls are peppered with sometimes, sometimes with less humor.
Technically a true enjoyment
The technology behind the game we liked very much. The graphics are extremely detailed and convinces mainly due to rich colors. If you expect a gloomy action game, you are definitely wrong. However, a more detailed assessment can only be given to the release because the mission sent by us has played mainly indoors. However, we were allowed to listen to both English and German synchronization. This reveals one of the jazne points of the game. Even though Marvel s Guardians of the Galaxy is not based on the films, hover due to their success like a Damocleshswer above the title. The German voices are not that of the speakers from the cinema adventures, which initially leads to a certain discrepancy between expectation and result. If you do not bother yourself, however, gets a successful German setting donated. The English speakers, however, are as often better and blades something more emotional and rousing.
Assessment
What we have seen and experienced by Marvel s Guardians of the Galaxy so far has made a murder fun. The action, the issue of commands in combat, the use of special skills and the basic gameplay work smoothly. We lacked a bit of the learning curve, so that some conflicts were unusual, but we were thrown directly and without warning in Chapter 5. But what really excited us was the interaction of the figures inside and outside the fighting. The constant talks, the mutual eliminating and then rest again to save the world, incredibly well begins the spirit of the template. The highlight is without the question of Huddle. This feature alone shows what difference makes the right use of music. Simply sensational! Now only scope and co must vote, then expects us in October possibly one of the best license games of the last few years.
