I don't often leave Google reviews, but since this isn't on Steam, consider this my Steam review ported to Google.
I am in awe. I play a lot of Ubisoft games and they are usually my comfort food gaming. Not substantial of life changing, but fun and predictable. When I saw this game announced I was not too excited. I saw some early game play and had the same feeling. For context, I think both Avatar movies are bland as well. Visually they are incredible, but the stories are so forgettable and boring.
Then I played it.
Wow. Just wow. This is the perfect Ubisoft game. The gameplay mechanics all make sense in the world and the world is incredible. This is easily the best looking game I've ever played, and even better, it works at launch (sorry Cyberpunk). The writing is so middle of the road that it's painful, but the gameplay, world and overall immersion more than make up for it.
To really get the full experience I'd recommend playing on exploration mode and just wandering the world until you find your quest. If you story rush I am sure this will get boring, but if you immerse yourself in the world and allow yourself to get lost in Pandora you will have a truly great time.
"Best Far Cry since Far Cry 3" is an accurate statement. Best Ubisoft game since AC Odyssey and the best thing the Avatar license has ever put out. Far better than both movies.
