Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy - Episode 4: Who Needs You Reviews
The fourth episode of Guardians of the Galaxy might be filler, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Though it does not move the plot as far along, those that like the action sequences found in the movies will appreciate what is present here.
Frustrating gameplay aside, Telltale games are still primarily about the story, and episode four shows that it is possible to throw some interesting twists and turns into a narrative that seemed dead in the water. Getting to those points can feel a bit tiresome, and many of the connecting elements feel completely superfluous, but at least there's a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully that light grows even brighter as the series comes to its conclusion.
Guardians of the Galaxy – Episode 4: Who Needs You? can be the weakest episode in the series, because the story doesn't have anything new to tell. Just predictable events happening in the same locations.

The fourth episode is the lowest moment of Peter Quill's group. Slightly slow in the beginning, the chapter has some important consequences for the pack, in addition to extremely relevant sacrifices, with a rise on the action at the end.

Telltale's Guardians Of The Galaxy sees some improvement in the fourth episode, but how will the story wrap up?
Overall, this episode happens to be one of the best and it's definitely going to get those who are playing excitedly to see what's going to happen in the fifth and final entry of the Marvel-Telltale game.
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series, Episode 4: Who Needs You doesn't focus on the current apocalyptic situation that the Guardians are in, instead, it's all about how the Guardians deal with hitting rock bottom. Broken, tired, and overwhelm Peter attempts to keep the group together as space worms try to make them into lunch.
With the season ramping up in tempo and the story really tethering off towards a conclusion, Guardians of the Galaxy is really turning into one of Telltale’s best series’ to date.

As a whole I will give episode 4 in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy an 8/10. While there are oh so many things I adored, the stuff that’re keeping it from scoring higher are the fact that the major choices didn’t turn out to be as consequential as I’d wanted them to, I would have also liked more engaging pick of stuff to throw out or keep and the entire episode feeling a bit like a filler to the main plot.
Who Needs You has some strong emotional moments, followed by frustratingly unearned tension in the group.
Who Needs You was a solid penultimate episode for the series and I'm curious how the Guardians will work on solving their issues in the finale.
