This is not our year Avatar bros...

lmao lol even
will they fuck up 2027 Seven Havens release next?

the avatar fighting game looks pretty neat.

Honestly, the more Avatar things are cancelled the better.
I've said it before, but I don't want Avatar to become this massive eternally milkable multimedia franchise that Paramount wants it to be.

I am glad Avatar is dying. This franchise should have stayed dead after Korra.

How?

It's actually coming to the ExA Arcadia system. Although there really aren't many araces in the US that even have the ExA Arcadia system. The Avatar fighting game could become popular in Japanese arcades.

It was a game about creating your own avatar in an Ice Age world. The concept was neat.
>>
>>154077063
Korra is a disgrace. The franchise peaked with Avatar Aang the last airbender original show.
>>
>>154077174
And you trusted modern Avatar studios to handle the project faithfully?
>>
>>154077194
They handled it to Saber Interactive. Outside some inputs from the creators I thought most of the world would've been done by them.

>ExA Arcadia system
What does that mean?
>>
>>154077239
https://exa.ac/en/?v=0f177369a3b7

ExA Arcadia is a new arcade hardware. Similar to the Neo Geo MVS, where it is one cabinet with multiple games on it that are changeable with cartridges.

I do hope the Avatar Legends fighting game can gain popularity in Japanese arcades.

Some hackers threatening them to leak the series some days ago in fact. I think that's pretty much the reason why they cancelled this to begin with.

This. They waited way too long to spam more Avatar content and even if these were announced years earlier, ATLA feels like lightning in a bottle. Other series like Korra and that new show with the Diversity Space Tool feMC are seemingly stuck living in ATLA's shadow and have to rely on gimmicks.
>>
>>154077061
I disagree. It's the perfect franchise for it, but Paramount is throwing it all in the trash.
>>
Avatar should have been like FF where every entry is set in a different world while keeping the elements of the franchise. Following ATLA's world was a mistake because it's just 4 nations and they all got explored already.

The Curse of the Lion Turtle
One of the worst endings in cartoon history
Universally agreef upon that the Lion Turtle was retarded
Even children recognized it as an asspull
Ever since then everything Avatar has been a dumpster fire
Theres only one solution
They have to remake the ending of AtLA
Someone rewinds time somehow and Lion Turtle never appears
Aang has to kill Ozai
Its the only way to break the curse

Honestly, I don't believe those pirates exist; I think they're just the creators filtering their own content so they don't look like fools for wasting years of their lives.

Okay what I want to know is, where were Aang's reservations during the day of black sun? If he got to the firelord then was he just going to cuck out?
>>
>>154077061

Avatar is perfectly capable of being a healthy franchise but it has been mismanaged for its entire existence.
>>
>>154077640
You mean like the Daily Wire?
>>
>>154079913
The issue is all the other times any "No Kill Rule" character is introduced
They take way way too many actions that absolutely 100% killed people
Any fire nation soldiers he knocked into freezing cold water, in metal armor, they all fucking got hit with the worst shock in history and then drowned. Cold water alone will do that, cause you to lock up and go under. You have to train that response out
Knocking tanks off a mountain, sure hope they didnt die from being thrown around like jellybeans in a jar
Every character like this kills people, its just all ignored and off screen so if doesnt count

>>154077166
When I first saw the game I thought it looked like a typical shovelware fighting game but the more gameplay I see the more it looks like they’re putting a ton of effort into it. It’ll probably be the first fighting game I’ll pick up since FighterZ

>This is not our year Avatar bros...

>>154078296
the thing is, killing ozai was forced drama anyway. it was literally only proposed at the end of the series. all ozai's power was political, he wasn't even blue flame tier like azula. there is no reason whatsoever beating the shit out of him and putting him in jail wouldn't have ended the war for good
>>
>>154080554
>all ozai's power was political, he wasn't even blue flame tier like azula
Ozai is canonically the strongest member of his family by a very comfortable margin.
>>
>>154077206
Sabre will just focus those devs on Space Marine 3, which is a game guaranteed to make money for them
>>
>>154078003
>It's the perfect franchise for it,
The last 20 years disproves this
>>
>>154077177
This. Everything after ATLA is slop.
>>
>>154078296
Ty Lee was literally right there and could've taught Aang Chi blocking to beat Ozai, instead of writing her out of the show.

>>154077063
I feel like I'm wasting my time trying to care about this franchise.

Yeah that's my guess too. It just feels too stupid of a move to make just because of piracy. They felt the game wasn't going to deliver so they cancelled it and piracy is just an easy excuse.

The problem is the guy that owns Paramount going on a drunken bender to buy WB, adding on a mountain of debt that they can never hope to pay off.

Like, sir. Sir. I need you to understand context here.

The amount Paramount spent to acquire WB is more than what Disney spent acquiring Pixar, Fox, Marvel, and Hulu... combined. By about two billion dollars more.

Paramount is operating under a mountain of debt that the largest IP in the world (Pokémon) would struggle to pay back over ten years.

Nickelodeon functionally DOES NOT EXIST any more because they can't afford to keep the lights on. The ONLY shows in production are Spongebob and the new Avatar show because they're desperate for any sort of hit.

It's no wonder Netflix declined raising their offer. They'll be able to buy the pieces up at a fraction of the price in about five years.

Pixar, Fox, Marvel, Hulu, AND Star Wars/Lucasfilm. Two billion more than all that combined.

It's hard to get interested in this because it's obviously a filler game. They probably released this game to get funds for the RPG, considering how they put a lot of emphasis in it being an AAA game aka the actual deal.
>>
>>154084474
you are a fucking dumbass if you see everything they are doing for it and think "it's filler" when the supposed AAA game was being done by a literally who company with no relevant track record
>>
It's wild how the ATLA franchise has managed to persist after all this time on the back of exactly ONE great show. I've never seen Korra, so don't come after me pls
>>
>>154084520
Korra S1 isn’t terrible, most of its detractors do seem to be E;R fans who’ve never watched it.

Kek, guffah even.

>>154083494
It's almost 20 years too late to make this game. The avatar brand has been shit for longer then it's good and the characters are nobodies to anyone who wasn't invested in the series.

Too much of Avatar failed to catch on or have real legs due to the ego and low talent brainfarts of "Bryke".

>>154084587
It's watchable, but it's a bad direction in many areas. Why in the fuck are they in a city and why do they have so many ridiculous unaddressed anachronisms?
Remember the ridiculous burger thing from boruto and how they had a clear set up for Naruto to take his son to the noodle stand he grew up in as a bonding moment, or hell make it canon that the noodle guy taught him how to make his noodles and he makes it for him and boruto's friends occasionally?
Simple stuff like that to show that the past has continuity and means something to the people who watched it.

Have Verrick be the son of the Cabbage guy and have the avatar team occasionally ruin something he's built and have him say my cabbages or make him the bastard of Sokka
Continuity beyond the name and a few mismanaged hooks doesn't work.
>>
>>154077055
Sadly, the Street Fighter-Tekken-Guilty Gear triad pretty much makes it impossible for other fightans to thrive. It will suffer the same fate as the Invincible and League of Legends fighting game.
>>
>>154084587
It's shit dude. The only good thing about it is animation and how hot Korra is. Animation is kept on Last Airbender level, so there's no woah there. Korra is an annoying person, so it's hard to enjoy her body when she starts talking. Mako is dull. Bolin is gay and unfunny and Sokka but worse. The Pro-Bending is not fun to watch. The worldbuilding is horrendous; oh wow, there are factories where people are using lightning to power grids, no one fries their hearts anymore. I guess now that Bolin discovered lava bending, everyone will be using lava to cook ash potatoes. Bending is cheapened. Why this guy can blood bend without full moon? His family is just special, no explanation needed!
>>
>>154084679
that’s all filler anyway, the Boruto canon is so fast paced there’s no time for anything like that. And Korra focuses a lot on Tenzin and Lin already, I’m not sure how making Varrik Sokka’s son would improve anything.
>>154084745
I’ll give you lightning, it honestly comes off as the studio not wanting to animate it properly, but the bloodbenders were explained as extensively training since childhood. Hama was a weak bender who lost to Katara and Katara obviously wouldn’t extensively torture animals.
>>
>>154085020
That’s not a proper explanation and you know it anon. you cant just break your own rules for powers and chalk it up to training
>>
>>154085192
Toph was able to metalbend when no one else was able to. No one else would WANT to torture animals for years.

>>
>>154085231
Toph being the first to metal bend has always been retarded. Let's just get this out of the way.
A lot of the series is ridiculous in hindsite but we let it slide because you were already bought into the story.

>>154085020
The anime was canon and it was slow as molasses in winter. And the burger thing was a big show of "things changing".
Like the stupid ninja tools thing that ruined a massive chunk of what made the show work.

A lot of Korra was burgers and ninja tools and they never really addressed it in a satisfying way as in the old show these things were major plot points.
Remember the bear joke in the OG series or the blimps?
I know it shows that times they are a changing but the leap is too far and strips the world of it's spirituality and power. It's cheap.

And Korra being a stacked brown girl was killed by her being a dumbass. She has "no matter how hot she is, some guy somewhere is sick of her shit" written all over her.
>>
>>154077063
It never should have been a franchise. Just because someone catches lightning in a bottle and makes an all time great show doesn't mean anything else needs to be made.
>>
>>154083320
Gets worse.
Remember he owns paramount via buying it via skydance.
He was already in debt.

And you have to consider just how strategically Bob Iger approached all those buyouts, they were all spaced out to lead to minimal loss in each acquisition.
The WB buyout is so insane because warner was 4x the size of what Ellison actually had to begin with BEFORE all the additional financing.

The real kekaroo is this. Remember this deal went through right before everyone started talking about not wanting massive data centers in their communities? Those data centers were gonna be the lifeline that enabled such reckless spending to begin with
>>
ATLA was also shit. None of it was good ever and I'm glad people are waking up and realizing this.

Season 1 is objectively the worst
>Rise up benderless
>throw off the shackles the benderd oppress you with
>never shows a single moment the benderless are actually oppressed
>Amon lying about being a bender never goes anywhere
After that season theres not a single nonbender still pushing what Amon said
They should have actually shown oppression
Now its just an allegory that people crying about systemic issues are probably living perfectly normal lives and its all lies pushed onto them by people who lie about their heritage
And there's no way they intentionally made such an on the nose "My Fellow Whites" allegory for jews.
They literally just did random shit
Then made Evil Avatar, a giant robot and a kaiju battle bedore destroying the franchise
>>
>>154076964
The movie looked bland and I didnt wind up watching it. Did it even add anything to the series or characters?

>Avatar Sungha Bong did something shocking 5000 years ago and Aang has to deal with the mess
It caan be assumed that every Avatar was an asshole to someone at some point, it's not even an interesting conflict because each Avatar is a unique person with even less ties to the "past lives" than a parent-child/siblings. Zuko and Ozai and Azula have more interesting drama than Aang worrying about that dumb shit, and they fucked that up too
