Despite the combat being fairly basic, it more than makes up for it with the writing and performances. I went in expecting just a fun, lightweight space opera and I left genuinely kind of moved. But its a Guardians story, so I honestly should have expected that.

Also I have spent an embarrassingly long time in this game's frankly amazing photo mode. Whoever's idea it was to give Rocket a beard is a genius.

The sight of Bowser driving a 1930's Mercedes Grand Prix Car on monster truck wheels is honestly one of the most surreal things I've ever seen in a game.

Game's really good btw you should play it

Memes aside, this is just a ridiculously good action game. You Parrying a bunch of attacks one after another makes you feel so powerful its insane.
