Yea, so I can keep forgetting what everyones' species among the Guardians are called, except for Groot for some reason.

I bring this up because Moondragon is still an adult bald woman which I personally would have a hard time identifying & I don't know if there are any human origins to Drax at all or his relation as Arthur Douglas are? Although, I can't remember if Moondragon's human name is part of her file. Also I don't remember why she's even in the Nova's file are?

It's literally the name of her file

Douglas, Heather

Shes on the file for traffic violations, removing bodily autonomy and telepathic violations.

So she's only a cameo like Darkhawk & Nova/Richard Rider?

Yes she is just a cameo like the rest.

Also potential sequel hooks. I can imagine Darkhawk showing up with the Fraternity of Raptors as an enemy faction.

I don't think you should use a thumbnail for that one, but I suppose most people don't really care at the end of the day.

I find it amusing that for as much as the Guardians mock humans, barring Jack Flag every human in that list is individually stronger than any of the Guardians. Quasar and Darkhawk for instance are capable of interstellar travel without a ship.

Also I'm not sure where they get off on constantly mocking other characters for their names. They are a team comprised of guys like Drax the Destroyer, Groot, Rocket Raccoon, and Star Lord which he named himself literally after an 80's metal band. Its not like Adam Warlock is anymore ridiculous a name.

I don't know if that's supposed to be their persona to begin with since they also severely downplaying the Avengers as well.

Either way, they're putting their foot in their mouths if any of those characters show up in the sequel.

Plus the fact that Quill still chose to name themselves the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Despite the fact they are 5-man team with absolutely no resources of any kind and can barely successfully accomplish a job.

Which is rather amusing considering each member of the team is pretty competent. Star Lord is a war hero, Drax can match Thanos blow for blow, Gamora was trained by Thanos, Rocket's a genius, and Groot is damn strong.

Yet for all their skills they have absolutely no idea how to market themselves. This as well as their total inability to act with any sort of professionalism, leaves them in perpetual poverty. Granted they are also just not that skilled in some areas considering the prologue mission is a total bust as despite all their intel and preparations all they had to show for it is a space llama and attempting to capture a creature Lady Hellbender already has plenty of.

I didn't watch all the dialogues yet so I don't know if Drax is supposed to be the Anti-Thanos like his comic counterpart is. Still, Drax is celebrated as the guy who killed Thanos. Even though he firmly believes that Thanos is still alive & the game even implies that's the case.

Excluding Drax, I'm under the impression that Groot is the most powerful guardian because of his healing factor but I don't know his limits. I seriously doubt fire is his weakness.

As far accomplishments go, they did beat Foom, but I have no idea how powerful Foom actually is supposed to be in either incarnation.

I have collected some of Drax collectibles and he actually opened up about that, revealing he does have his anti-Thanos thing here. In this case he found Thanos's father Mentor and his brother Chronos who gave Drax some kind of potion that created a link between him and Thanos which he then used to track him across the universe to a remote planet. There by his own admission he engaged in a multi-day brawl against Thanos alone but he passed out before delivering the final blow. When he awoke he was in a hospital and Thanos disappeared since leading everyone to believe Drax killed him.

Thats why Drax believes Thanos is still alive, because he didn't actually kill him. He still feels the link so he knows that Thanos is somewhere out there in the universe waiting.

Then that is good as confirmation as can get. Other than Thanos himself showing up.

Alright I finally finished the game, pretty great stuff. Worked pretty well barring some technical issues, fair warning if anyone hasn't noticed do not touch Gamora's doll collectable after talking to her about it. Every time I touch the thing it freezes the game forcing me to reload the checkpoint.

Looking forward to the sequel. Hopefully they go bigger and badder next game, I want more new team members, more villains, more skills, more improvements to the combat, just a lot of more.

Got it because it was on sale.

This game is absolutely fantastic so far and I haven't even started the combat.

With the recent award win this game is definitely getting a sequel for sure.

Really hope Nova comes onboard the team.

Couple chapters in and my favorite thing to do is just stand still for minutes at a time and listen to the crew bicker.

A chick who owns a planet pays 10k units for one-of-a-kind superdangerous monsters and some street vendor is selling hot dogs for 500 I don't understand this economy at all.

The last free game for Epic Games Store's daily holiday free game turned out to be this wonderful title.

Unlike the rest, the claim period last until January 11, rather than just one day (back to the store's normal weekly free game format). You don't need to download the launcher or have a gaming PC currently claim it. Just an Epic Games account is fine enough to claim it on their website, adding it to your library for later.
