Well-written and compelling story, with an amazing finale (and build-up that led towards it). The characters are unique and have a fascinating development, which gets the player more and more fond of them during the adventure.

When it comes to gameplay, it was a hell of a fun ride. Quill's and the team's fighting mechanics work like a charm and every single battle, as hard and challenging as it could get, turns out to be super entertaining, with multiple possible outcomes within each one's style.

Boss stages were one of its weak spots, though - could've had a more challenging and different tone from the rest of the fights. The final extra "boss" (?) also seemed a bit rushed and could've been better explored, but it's understandable after the relatively long "official" final boss fight. It also had an epic cinematic finale that made up for it and stood up for a truly amazing videogame.

(Note: for the PS4, the game had some reproduction issues, like minor glitches or even severe FPS drops, from time to time)
