[@thecaptain6520]

Many such cases

[@Stephen_Adegun]

I'd say it's because this isn't how you'd adapt Avatar. I left a comment about it already, but I'll try summing it up. They can't take a show and make it a game. It won't work. The mediums are too different. Sure, you can take the plot and make it cutscenes, but the gameplay would screw with the pacing. Or just feel forced because of the fact that it's thrust into the middle of the plot. The only thing that actually matters. They have the world, the lore, the powers. They don't need to prey on nostalgia for an Avatar adaptation. They need to capture the spirit of Avatar, and they don't need the existing cast and characters for that. At the very least, they could make an original story better suited to having gameplay be such an important, prevalent part of it.

have an idea for an avatar game. Create an MMORPG you create your own bender with any of the 4 elements. Aand with time and like missions and quest you get stronger in that element. Example Fire bender. In the beginning you can only bend normal fire. With time you become a skilled fighter and bender, then unlock more cool firebending attacks, defences and counterattacks. Then at a lvl like 40 your fire can get a different color depending how you (blue flames, green flames ect. And then like lvl 60 you unlock lightning. And you do those with the rest of the elements. Story wise it can be after the original last Airbender story. Like find a partner on your journey (ex a girl/guy that in time as the story goes on you two have romantic feelings for eachother)Join team Avatar as the new person and help them change the world. Like with ever update the map gets bigger. New moves to unlock. New story added. Playing with your friends, pvp that would be an Awesome game

[@Stephen_Adegun]

This is indeed very depressing. I don't even think the solution is all that difficult. - Don't have a single character people know and love. Let their legacies be unburdened by any potential catastrophe the game is - Give us an RPG. Some good old Xenogears-esque martial arts combo based combat. Since Avatar's magic system has martial arts baked into it, it would make perfect sense. Or an action RPG, because people hate turn based, I guess. Either way, anything party based. Even though I said "don't touch the original cast", doesn't mean you can't take advantage of the concept of a Team Avatar and have people from all around the world cooperating. - Don't touch the shows. Not just to keep them safe from whatever the hell this is. Because it's lazy. Korra made it canon that between Wan and the shows we know, there's 10,000 years of something. Do something with it. That's such a long stretch of time you can have a completely different world, with different nations, cultures, beliefs, everything. The idea of an Avatar existing and the bending would be the only real constants, if it was something set 5000 years ago. Get wacky. Get creative. Give people more content in this universe instead of just plastering characters they know and love into a blatant cash grab when they could just, I don't know, watch the show again.
