Avatar: The Last Airbender - Quest for Balance

After some time and consideration, I decided to make my purchase of this abomination. Waiting years to finally spend $10 to only realize that I probably injected malware into my system for no source of happiness to filling my empty void of Avatar The Last Airbender. Rated 10/10 would never do this again.

This is not the worst game in the history of the planet, as some might want you to believe. It definitely does leave a lot to be desired in many ways, but I'd be lying if I said that I didn't enjoy it at all. The biggest problem the game has is its price tag, pure and simple. I got this game at 80% off, and for 10 bucks, this is a great deal. In no world, however, it is worth 50. I don't blame the devs, I blame the publisher and the marketing for burdening the game with an unreachable amount of expectations that is attached to a price tag like this. I feel like the game's reception would've been A LOT better were it priced like a cute little puzzle game (which it is) and not a triple AAA title (which it definitely isn't). I think this game has heart, and makes an honest effort at being a fun, light hearted puzzle game. The part I arguably enjoyed the most was the gorgeous storyboard-esque, lightly animated cartoon cut scenes, but in terms of worldbuilding they managed to create a few ...

[b]THIS GAME IS A DISGRACE TO THE RICH LEGEND OF AANG[/b]. "Quest for Balance" or should it be "Test of Patience" takes everything you loved about Avatar and dunks it into a pit of mediocrity. [b]The intro alone feels like a funeral for your childhood[/b], drained of all life and charm. [b]Combat is a joke[/b]. Each character has a pathetically small set of moves, and your secondary action [b]cooldown is so long at first that bending feels like waiting for GTA 6 to release[/b]. Enemies don’t react when you hit them mid-attack, they just smack you anyway, while [b]ignoring your entire party to hunt you down like you owe them money[/b]. The camera fights you harder than any boss. [b]Animations tiptoe on the edge of ridiculous[/b]. Sidequests feel like chores designed by someone who hates fun. [b]The story leaps across key events like it’s skipping chapters[/b], while voice acting barely exists—just scattered words thrown into the void. [b]Boss duels redefine stupidity[/...

i went into this game with high hopes... to say i'm disappointed is a UNDERSTATEMENT!! was hoping there would be a last airbender game as good as the og avatar on ps2. i'm hoping to get my money back, i do not recommend at all unless your 10 and under.

I would rate Avatar: The Last Air Bender on Steam 2/5 stars. They didn't use the original voice actors. The game constantly pauses (restricts player movement) when interacting with a chest or changing to a different scene. And the camera is totally messed up, there's no freedom to it at all. There's invisible walls everywhere, stopping players from venturing out. It's interesting so far, but a total let-down compared to the TV show.
