How to Help Cosmo in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy
To help Cosmo, players must choose the nice dialogue options that remind Cosmo of Knowhere and his puppiesinMarvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Focusing on his time on Earth will only encourage him to sink further into The Promise.
This means thatfor the first option, players should pick “Offer Hand.“This reminds Cosmo thatStar-Lord inMarvel’s Guardians of the Galaxyhas always been friendly to him, and will start to set doubt in his mind as to where he really is.
For the second choice, pick “Focus on Present.“The Universal Church of Truth inMarvel’s Guardians of the Galaxyis creating a fantasy for the dog with The Promise. It has placed him back on Earth with his old family. Cosmo will start to come round a little after being reminded about his life on Knowhere.
Lastly, players should pick the “Remind About Puppies” option. This will fully break Cosmo from his fantasy, and he will go running after his puppies. Helping him means a small puzzle at the end of the chapter will be skipped while players are escaping. Helping Cosmo results in a shorter chapter length compared with failing to help him.
Helping Cosmo also comes in useful near the end of the game, but he is still mentioned in the epilogue regardless of whether he was assisted on Knowhere or not. Players can always finish the chapter and then replay it from the main menu if they want to experience how the level ends if Cosmo is not helped.
