The movie definitely had a very similar final battle but it didn't feel too similar in how it played out. Was also a bit of a rehash of the final battle of the first too.

I really like the bits they are going with Eywa. I really hope 4 and 5 delve really deep into that
Glad you liked it! Dolby is the best.
Spoiler for Hidden:
wtf was that eywa face? Did not expect that. But also very cool that it was teased instead of just an eywa talk session

And is it just cause I don't follow Nintendo news, or did this game flop? Feels dead after less than a month.


Was a huge flop in Japan it seems.
define your criteria for flop?  sales or reception?

sales were on par for a metriod release.   terrible compared to most nintendo releases but i think the estimate i saw last was already north of a million.  for a franchise where the best selling game ever is in the ballpark of 3 million it did fine enough.

reception has been horrible though.   for like a week half of era was trying to will this game into being a good game.   ..but then it seems like they must of finished playing the game and realized how bad it is.    spoiler free statement: from what i read the worst part of the game just before the ending.  

Spoiler for Hidden:
to get to the final section you need to have collected enough green energy crystals to unlock a door or whatever.   even players knowing how important these are to the final game are only getting like half way there via normal gameplay meaning players have to spend time farming them which requires hours of backtracking

Wow what a book. I seem to have a pretty good idea on the ring space, ring builders and protomolecule and another threat that I won't really speak about given it's mostly only talked about in the final trilogy of books and not the show of at all
