![]() ![]() The diminished focus on “vehicles” (though you can fly on an Ikran, the flying dino thingies from the movies), the emphasis on hunting wild animals for sustenance, the entire fact you’re still a damn caveman, despite the blue skin and alien face. Before you leave in disgust, let me preface that this game is VASTLY better than Primal, but it’s hard not to compare both titles. In fact, it’s heavily influenced by one game in particular, Far Cry Primal. You can either be a good open world game, like the mainline Far Cry titles (I am still going to defend Far Cry 6, bring in the pitchforks) or Watch Dogs: Legion, or a boring, lifeless slog like Ghost Recon Breakpoint.Īvatar: Frontiers of Pandora is not their best open world outing, but it’s still quite fun. Is it yet another open world action-adventure with stealth and crafting, with a map full of icons and busy work to get busy with? Bear in mind that being an open world Ubisoft game by itself is not an issue. What was worrying me, and I’m sure is still worrying everyone else hyped for the game, is finding out how Ubisoft-ish Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora really is. In the meantime, deal with the RDA, using a handful of weapons, as well as an ever growing assortment of physical abilities, to the point that gigantic, mech-like exosuits can be defeated as easily as stomping on a Goomba in a Super Mario game. The main feature of the game as a whole is witnessing the maturity of your Na’vi protagonist, from former hostage with no memory of their ancestrals to leader of a long lost clan of Na’vi storytellers, fully respected by other tribes, to the point of being considered a beacon that can guide other villagers and settlers to a new beginning. Right from the get-go, this makes the overall plot way more interesting than the “ Pocahontas with Smurfs” setting from the original movie, but the script does suffer from some padding, uninteresting characters, and the occasional cartoonish voice acting. After being put into suspended for a decade and a half after an incident, you and your gentrified Na’vi pals team up with a resistance in order to defeat a new wave of human invaders, whilst finally connecting with your species, as well as your past. You’re basically a blue Predator.Īvatar: Frontiers of Pandora doesn’t follow the plotline of any of the movies released so far, with the protagonists being Na’vi orphans raised and trained by the Resources Development Administration (aka, the bad guys in the Avatar universe). Climb on top of a tree, and proceed to murder every human in sight with your silent, but deadly bow.
