Why is this game so high rated?

[tap and die]

Is there some rating inflation going on? There's no way an obvious cash grab of a Marvel game could possibly be this high rated.

[Cutlass Jack]

Its not a cash grab. Its actually a great game. Complete opposite of Avengers really.

Idk man I like it

[Captain Worthy]

The rating is fully deserved. It's not a cash grab, there's zero monetization in the game beyond what you initially pay.

And what you get is a shining infinity stone, glimmering in purest starlight. All you've got to do is put that walkman headset on and push the play button.

Its just a really well made game. It feels like playing a 20 hour version of a "Guardians of the Galaxy" movie.
It has some weak spots like the combat thats rather "meh" but the art design, graphics in general, soundtrack, characters and especially character interaction are really really good.
And the main story is surprisingly interesting and gripping.
Its just a nice narrative single player game with nothing else attached to it.
Nothing more to say.

20 hour version of a movie? So this is more like an interactive story telling game than actual gameplay?

No it has a bunch of gameplay and action scenes but also long narrative sections where you just walk through the enviroments and the character interact with each other.
The party banter is actually incredible impressive, the team is basically nonstop talking with each other and there is a insane amount of banter and interaction there.
Of course if you are allergic to typical Marvel dialog with the jokes and quips and such you should stay FAR away from this game.
But if you like this kind of stuff this really feels like a playable movie at times.

Honestly, just watch a chapter 1 Lets Play on Youtube or Twitch.
What you will see is pretty much the formula for the entire game, just with new places in each chapter, but the structure of story - walking - action- walking - story - action and so on is very similar throughout the whole game.

Not a cash grab. Plenty of action sequences with fun team mechanics. Very good representation of the franchise, with excellent writing throughout.

Instead of asking questions, you're telling us you've already made up your mind about what the game is without ever having touched it. But experience is how you earn credibility, and you don't have either yet.

Hope you enjoyed the attention this brought you.

Reminds me of when people would review games with "I don't like Game Boy games so..."

The assumption that "it's a Marvel game so it must be bad" invalidates everything that follows. It's just pure bias and purely worthless from that point on.

took me awhile to actually buy this game because i was very sceptical but after buying it on sale ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is this game good. Think of it as star wars jedi the fallen order but in the marvel universe. The attention to detail is amazing and the world building and atmosphere of this game is so good. This is how I always pictured a mandolarian type game would be like. GOTY in my opinion. Also the youtube videos don't do justice to how good this game looks and feels. Pretty much been playing non stop since i purchased it. If your a marvel fan its a must buy

Yeah anyone who bought this game has brain worms. It will be impossible to reach them because their brain has been replaced by a pile of compost. The "marvel comic book" theme stopped being creative and enjoyable 10 years ago. Even then, remember this stuff is intended for actual babies. So any adult still engaging with this in 2021 probably wears diapers and ♥♥♥♥♥ themselves. Even if you remove the Marvel Comics aspect of the game and just examine it is a video game, its horrible. The game basically plays itself and its just a couple hours of flashing lights to stimulate your compost brain. I will be blocking anyone that purchases this game.

oh noo pls dont be block me... lolololol

My only wish, OP, is that there would be more cash grabs like this.

Yeah, if only we had the same amount of Marvel games like this as there are MCU movies.

I just got a Dolby Atmos surround system with a 75" TV and bought this game to test gaming with it. The game sounds and looks great. It's more of a interactive movie or comic experience then a true game. The combat feels like a simple 'beat em up' and it's not challenging even on hard mode. Their's long periods between combat but the narrative keeps the pace going and keeps me engaged. This is a great game if you're looking to relax after work.
