Another drawback when it comes to Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora 's map and exploration focus is the inherent complexity of the dense design. For example, there was a point where we had to fly our Ikran to the peak of a floating mountain. Despite being right where the marker indicated we should be, we were actually on the mountain floating beneath the right one. Sometimes, the waypoints would be imprecise forcing us to search the area for the exact spot we needed to go. Combine this with long treks, and it could easily become a point of frustration for players. However, the trade-off of this accuracy is a dense map that offers ton of exploration opportunit
When we're introduced to the human encampment on Pandora and shown the rapid expansion of its human-friendly environment, we're given a brief explanation as to why the government bodies of Earth are so interested in the planet in the first place. It turns out that the Earth is quickly deteriorating, and mankind will soon need a new celestial body to call h
The most significant bit of lore introduced in The Way of Water is arguably the existence of tribes outside the forest Na'vi from the first film. Jake Sully and his family are forced to take refuge with the water Na'vi, learning their ways and customs as they attempt to blend
There are features Assassin's Creed can use to bring back old players, but it's clear that many gamers are simply tired of where the series, along with Ubisoft as a company, has been heading. Regardless of what the future of the Assassin's Creed series looks like, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora would be well-served by dodging AC tropes, which have by extension become tropes of Ubisoft as a company. The last thing that many want is another clone of Assassin's Creed ** , so an original, inventive, baggage-free _Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora** _ could be good not only for the gaming community, but for Ubisoft its
On the opposite end of Pandora, far from its lush natural environments, humans have begun to expand their presence on the planet at an alarming rate. The first film sets up the many interests humans have in the planet and its resources, and The Way of Water explains that, because of their technological advancements and funding from the RDA organization, they've been able to essentially build a full city on Pandora in a matter of mon
Although Ubisoft may show off more of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora 's story and characters ahead of its December 7 release, players won't know for certain just how effectively the game delivers on its promise until they can get their hands on it. The experience is certain to be expansive, and weaving a strong narrative through its world might be a task as difficult as it is promising. For now, fans can take comfort in the fact that _Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora _ has set itself up for success with a choice of protagonist that offers significant potential for the best player experie
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is an action-adventure game rather than a full MMORPG, but that doesn’t mean that there won’t be microtransactions. Ubisoft has a history of over-monetizing its games, with Far Cry 6 being a recent example of mostly single-player games that suffered from online stores and premium currencies. There’s nearly no doubt that for even a single-player experience, there will be monetization available in Frontiers of Pando
If there is a section of the game that lets players infiltrate the RDA, the possibilities for microtransactions increase substantially. The Avatar series already has weapons, helicopters, and Waterwing Mount other vehicles that have been created specifically for the world of Pandora. Unlocks could include the various assault ships, trucks, and gunships that players could use to take the land and find Unobtanium. Locking these behind paywalls or making them easier to grind toward with a premium currency could make Frontiers of Pandora more like Assassin's Cre
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a game with lots of potential despite only having one film’s worth of mythology to work with so far. Capturing the years of world-building that James Cameron and the production team have created is no small task but given time the game could end up having a unique and unexplored alien world to discover. At the end of the day, it’s up to Ubisoft to decide whether microtransactions are right for **Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora ** , and hopefully, the game’s world won’t suffer from
The Avatar films are largely character-driven journeys. While they've done a lot to establish the lore and customs of Pandora, these elements of the story tend to revolve around Jake Sully, Neytiri, and their respective family and friends. The Way of Water takes this even further, introducing us to the children of Jake and Neytiri, along with a number of other significant humans and Na
As previously mentioned, the initial Avatar game took on a third-person perspective. For Frontiers Of Pandora Ubisoft noted at E3 that this newer title would actually be a first-person action-adventure . There's likely a number of reasons for t
