    Sounds like everybody is in agreement that the game reuses the Ubisoft formula faithfully without inventing anything new or exciting, except this time it's on Pandora. Then the scores diverge depending on how sick the reviewer is of the Ubisoft formula and how interested they are in the world of Avatar.

    Beautiful game marred by lackluster combat and bad ai. This game could have been something special and it shows while playing it from your character feeling like a giant in human areas down to your movements but to many times it stops just short at being great. To the landscape being downright surreal in places. But things like bows being as loud as an antimaterial rifle alerting everyone within a mile where you are to enemies stumbling around in the same back and forth area seeming to have endless bullets to spray the forest in no particular direction. Also so far the story is very by the numbers.

    I always wished that this game was online multiplayer because the combat and stealth was just so good. Imagine dropping from a helicopter into the forest as a soldier or shooting from the canopies as a Na'vi. My favorite thing about this game was the combat, and I was sad how little of it there was once I'd finished the game, and I just feel that certain scenarios in multiplayer would give the game so much life. I get that Ubisoft likes their single-player adventures but an online, interactive, Rainbow-Six Siege-like game would allow so many opportunities for players, and the game would probably live longer. (Micro-transactions are also more appealing when the game is multiplayer, as I can't imagine buying a cosmetic in a single-player game)

You have not.

What little you have accomplished you attribute to the wisdom of your goddess, who is nothing but the voices of your dead echoing for all eternity. She moors you to the past, serving as a leash that keeps you as little better than apes, sad parodies of civilization that lack that special spark to become something more.
    We have come to your world in search of resources. Whether your actions drive us back or we take what we want and move on, the outcome is the same.

    I'm sick and tired of Western AAA developers and publishers playing it safe. Your creating Art, take a f#$king risk.
    Honestly I'm at the point where I'm just gonna stop playing any game that even sniffs of AAA budgets.

    You had me until the Nickleback jab. What did they ever do to you? That's just bad writing.
