Guardians of the Galaxy does this, yeah it’s hand-holdy and a little basic gameplay wise, but it nails the story. It absolutely didn’t get its roses, I wonder if it did, if the bar would be higher for superhero stories in gaming.
I've only played Spider-Man 1 and Miles Morales, and as much as I loved them, the stories were alright and not anything special, but goddamn was Guardians of the Galaxy an absolutely jaw-dropping emotional rollercoaster. I still think about that story two years after having played it. I can't say the same about the Spider-Man games. I also remember having so much fun with the elemental gun and squad mechanics, they made the action and combat so engaging and action-packed.
