Ubisoft Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora


This actually looks pretty cool.

It was a lot better than I was expecting visually. A big step up from the old Avatar game, even for the time it came out.
 
I'll check it out. I wish it was in 3rd person, or at least that it gave you the option to switch back and forth.

I always prefer third person. On a game like this even more so.
 
I like exotic natural settings for games (like Horizon) so I think I'll enjoy this.
 
Game looks amazing and this looks like a movie tie in game done right.

Its too bad thats its in 1st person... it just doesn't make any sense. Like really Ubisoft, I see you.
 
Eh it looks cool. Not a fan of the IP though. Could be a Butcher Bay situation where the game is better than the movie.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the writing/story is better and the characters more memorable. Also with a world like this, being able to explore it is a huge plus.
 
It feels like Far Cry but set in Pandora!

I will definitely buy this :)

I won’t play at launch but I am looking forward to exploring Pandora, which was my favourite part of the film.
 
The FP perspective just puts me off. I like FP more now than I did but actually seeing you control your own Na'vi would have been much more appealing.
 

Nice visuals but a meh story. So, just like the movies... :o
 
I'll play this eventually once it's on sale. Reviews aren't bad enough for me to want to skip it but not good enough to warrant buying it at full price.
 
I just got an email from Ubisoft for this...

I can't play a game that has a character moving in 1st person. This would have been in my waitlist if only, this is a third person game. The graphiX looks amazing, and i would at least enjoy checking out Pandora and doing photo mode.

Are there any first person games you like?

The only first person game I've finished was Resident Evil 7. I have Resident Evil Village but haven't played it. GTA V/RDR2 have first person option, but I never really used it. Mortal Kombat X has first person for the Krypt section (for unlockables) which I accessed several times.

I played Mirror Edge Catalyst which looked good - only for it to give me an actual headache so I never played it since then. I googled if it was just me but I found out other people got headache from that game too.

So first person perspective is almost like a deal breaker for me.
 
I got a gift card as a Christmas present and the game was already on a good sale (just 45 euros) so I got it and I've been playing for a few hours. It's good so far, even if the story is a little bit basic (an Avatar mainstay). The visuals are gorgeous, I love how massive the world looks and all the details, there's movement all around, some of the plant life directly interacts with the character and it's very cool. Graphically it isn't quite as impressive as I'd hoped, but it still looks amazing and the slightly decreased graphical quality makes sense with how genuinely alive the map is and how vast it is. Combat and crafting is all good, it plays very much like a Far Cry game and I like those, so I was right at home.
I’ll go in expecting no story lol. I want it to look as good as possible though, and interactivity with the environment is a nice bonus.
