one site gave it 45/100 because it had "bad performance and tons of bugs", ACG on the other hand praises that portion (that he didn't have many bugs at all + really good performance).

That's actually an abysmal score for an AAA open world ubi game.
Starfield has 83 for PC Laughing


Yep.

74 is not a very promising score there.

If you pay, shill, command the journalists / media and they STILL(!) give you this rating... just imagine what the user score might be...

If even review sites are critical about a AAA game, it's bad.

...or its just really good, totally depending on what the complaints are, or what you like. If you really love AAA games it might be be bad - like gameplay aren't the usual things that people expect in those sort of games.

The reviews are about what i expected for a game like this tbh. there are tons of people who absolutely hate Avatar, and i get that, its kind of lame.. personally i would say i'm rather neutral towards it, i neither love or hate Avatar, and i haven't even watched the latest one yet.

My review in Spanish (6/10). Definitely one of the most boring games I've played in years: https://www.pcmrace.com/2023/12/06/avatar-frontiers-of-pandora-pc-review/

In the review there are fifteen 4K screenshots at max settings and a DLSS Vs FSR 3 image comparison (FSR3 looks on par with DLSS and works quite well in this game.).



Seasonic 1000w Planitum - TT Level 10 GT - ASUS M5E - i7 2600k @ 5.0ghz - 16GB Patriot Viper 3 - Dell u3011 - EVGA GTX 980 @ SLI - SSD Samsung EVO 250GB - 16TB W.D. - G19/G13 @ Roccat Kone XTD - Razer Vespula - Xonar Phoebus @ Vulcan ANC/Corsair 2100 Vengeance - Logitech G51

I was intrigued by OriginalSpaceJockey’s reply regarding the option to play the game on Ubisoft+ unless it’s PC only.

Shame you don't get to play as Quaritch and mow down the Na'vi.

#QuaritchDidNothingWrong. Jake Sully's a traitor.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

its 15 bucks for a month of ubi plus. you can probably play a bunch of others. Mirrage and whatever they released and is uncracked. I find it weird how they released Avatar. Feels very thrown under the bus somehow. I dont see some big marketing push, hype, stuff like that. They spent 6 yrs and probably 200 million on this. You'd expect more effort, no ?

About the only reviewer I trust when looking at games I am interested in. There was maybe one or two games awhile back that I didn't agree with his assessment, but he's been pretty spot on with how I feel about games.

I already finished AC mirage with an Ubisoft + sub last month and cancelled. So, I'm in no rush to renew right now. Got some backlog Steam games I am working on.

often, but not always for me. i think he seems to be shilling preeeeetty damn hard in that review.

this dude is great, points out the things he can tell they've worked hard on but also pointing out the many rather obvious flaws that ACG just seems to skip:



my interest died completely. also it's $75 for me lol.. no. i could pay that for a 9/10 game, not for a 7/10 game. The pricing is insane.

..and Shill Up highly recommends it Very Happy

seems to be split almost like Starfield, though with a few more negative reviews.

Mac is usually right, i trust him way more than Skill Up or ACG...

Shows that FSR3 is good one if implemented properly.
