    I’ve been playing on PC for about 15 hours. I haven’t gotten much out of the story and or side quests, but once I was kinda set free it brought back the sense of wonder I felt the first time I played Skyrim.

    Solid review. Picked up Avatar Frontiers of Pandora on PS5 and man the graphics are absolutely stunning! It’s the first game since Horizon Forbidden West that has blown me, the world of Pandora is so lush, the natural environment, lighting is top notch. Flying around on the Ikran is a treat, Far Cry Primal is one of my all time favorite games and Avatar Frontiers of Pandora captures the vibe of that game perfectly. 😊

    Nice video, dude!
    I’m fortunate enough to have a PS5 and an XSX and I’m waiting for Digital Foundry’s report but so far I’ve only found comparisons going in PS5s favour.
    So far three guys are saying that the image has noticeably better stability on PS5 and that performance is equal or better on PS5 and zero guys saying the opposite. (Though assuming you have VRR there are no performance issues on either console)
    PS5 having better image quality doesn’t make sense especially since this is so graphically intense.
    Hurry up Digital Foundry!

    I’ll be honest, I absolutely hate this game.
    All it does is bug and glitch.
    I can’t even get through some of the early quests because I’ll do them perfectly and the game will not register that I did it.
    Had to do a quest like 20 times over because of this.
    I even looked it up to be sure I was doing it right.
    Not to mention the shit stealth.
    I’ll easily stealth kill an enemy, but immediately be noticed by literally every single enemy and they also seem to teleport to my location to rein fire on me.
    My only option at that point is to quit the quest because I have to go out of the quest zone.
    And the game kills me for that.
    I’m so sick of it!
    This game is so broken I cannot enjoy it.
    I’m glad you enjoyed it.
    But I have not enjoyed it one time since I got it.
    Such a waste of money.

      I believe you as a lover of AVATAR this game was phenomenal. I really don't understand why people dislike it. Its a very real spiritual experience. You do feel like a newbie being trained by the Navi.This game is meant for people who really want to dive in to the world of avatar. Just like the first movie. Especially at night. This isn't just a fight with the RDA this is a game that shows their deep spiritual connection amongst one another and their environment. Something as humans we were never able to experience ourselves.

If its a snooze fest don't play a game based on spirit and peace and their connection. If you didn't like the movie avatar for the blue cats. don't play a game based on it lol. For people who want a deeper understanding would love this game without a doubt. Avatar is known for its scenery and the spiritual connection they have with their enviorment.

    Story, dialouge and characters are very lackluster. If you play as a female Naavi, you sound like selfconfident american woman. If you play as a male, you sound like a scared, insecure native boy. I would have liked to hear Massives thoughts about that. ;) What wins me over is the world, worth the purchase alone.

    There’s just nothing to it… no meaningful exploration and things to discover outside of eye candy, barely any interesting main/side-quests etc.
    It ALL just feels dated and as if the game could’ve launched several years ago and fit right in with the PS4/Xbox One generation.
    Far Cry and much more mechanically sound in this regard, despite that it’s been rinse and repeat since the 3rd game, which pretty much set the template for all Ubisoft games of this ilk
    Anyway… I’d suggest waiting for a decent sale if you absolutely love Avatar (which I don’t care too much for.)
