>Moves in the game are split into four different groups to correspond with the four different elements Korra can bend. By pressing the shoulder buttons, you can switch between the elements and, consequently, the different movesets. These aren't just the same actions reskinned, either: each element has its own specialization. Ranged attacks are exclusive to Water, Earth has slow, close-quarters attacks, Fire focuses on fast melee combat, and Wind gives you a balanced, versatile set of moves.

>Each set has several different attacks, split between light and heavy strikes. Holding down either button will charge Korra and make her attacks even stronger. Different levels of charge are unlocked as the game progresses. The developer promises that the four different elemental sets allow for numerous different combos. Leveling up Korra will also unlock different light moves and collecting the game's currency lets you purchase heavy strikes and finishers.

>Platinum has made sure that attacks are as fluid as possible, which means you can switch between elements on the fly, even mid-combo. He showed us sequences where Korra would bounce an enemy in the air with an Earth attack, shoot him with long-range Water strikes, jump up and land a dozen punches on him in rapid succession with Fire moves, then blow the guy away with a Wind attack. Finally, he would land and use one of the element-specific finishing moves to kill the enemy for good.

>In addition to fluid offensive strikes, Platinum is also adding a counter system for players who wish to approach the game more defensively. If timed correctly, Korra can block and send long-range attacks back toward the enemy. Although this counter system works well, Kurooka said that the game is much more fun if the player takes advantage of Korra's offensive capabilities.

> They even jointly created the new villain, one that uses a new type of Chi blocking that has left Korra powerless at the beginning of this adventure. Her powers haven't been taken away completely, and as you go through the levels, Korra will remember how to use her bending abilities once again.

>But as you progress and level up, you'll upgrade your attacks and learn new combos. What makes the fighting top notch here is how seamlessly you can swap between your four powers as you're unleashing combos on enemies.

>Water bending is good for long-range attacks -- either throwing out projectiles, or using a "water whip"-like move to reel enemies closer to you. On the other hand, air bending is best as an area-of-effect attack when dealing with a group of enemies surrounding you. Each bending style offers something unique, and it's best to mix up your attacks as much as possible. Oh, and you totally can summon an air ball and ride it around just like in the show.

>you can go into the Avatar state

>Countering is especially encouraged, most of all when dealing with boss-type enemies. It's a similar counter system to that of Revegeance as well, where you have to learn the enemy patterns to best time the counter over being babied and getting some notification to time the counter correctly

I disagree.

I really enjoy when fighting or combat styles in games like this are more easily accessible in the form of a single button press where I don't have to move my fingers away from the directional sticks. It allows for more fluid movement during combat and prevents janky interruptions.

That's just my opinion though.

It's really nowhere near as bad as people make it out. If you go to a thread while its airing, everyone is enjoying themselves. It's only after the episodes over do people start "trolling" about it.

People just don't understand that Korra and Aang are opposites in personality, one was a nomad pacifist and the other is a an actual fighter who loves to fight and solve problems by being strong. People get pissy that she fights more than she thinks when that's just her character personality.

If it was swapped and Korra was first and Aang was the new series, everyone would be pissed that he was such a pacifist and didn't want to fight half the time.

It might be a thematic decision.

They make a huge deal in the show about how hard it was for Korra to learn airbending, which has a fighting style that primarily includes rapid movement and dodging attacks instead of deflecting them.

It's the opposite of the first series where Aang had trouble learning Earthbending because his instinct was to always dodge attacks.

To be honest a parry system sounds fine to me. Partially because it fits thematically, but more so because it feels more fun to me to be able to block/reflect enemy attacks with proper skill and timing than it does to just dodge them.

Literally nobody was complaining about that. People just dislike Korra because she's a dull lead and the supporting cast is largely lackluster. The plot goes nowhere and Amon is completely wasted.

The show is largely negatively received and for good reason. It pales in comparison to the original.

Korra is neither, though. She was irrational during Book 2's first half, but it was justified by all the shit getting dumped on her lap.

From the post it seems like it.

>>250363614
Before Korra aired the studio did a whole bunch of interviews about how they wanted to make a strong feminist protagonist and how she wouldn't need any man to help her out

Turns out that results in a unrealistic character that nobody likes who constantly makes illogical decisions based on her emotions and almost completely tanks the entire franchise.

The only thing Korra is good for is porn.

The worst part about the last one is that during the entire season, she'd have a glimmer of hope where she'd try to actually do what Tenzin said (i.e. concentrating) and then she'd get frustrated when it didn't work as fast as the other elements.

Face it anon, Korra is the autistic avatar.

She didn't, mako did because she was being a huge bitch, mostly because her home was at war, her uncle was evil and she was panicking.

>goes against Tenzin in the most oblivious "your uncle is a bad dude" scenario when just about EVERYONE agrees with Tenzin
Tenzin, and her dad, lied to her her whole life to keep her secluded. She felt betrayed by both of them, and with good reason. Moreover, neither her dad nor Tenzin could come up with a reason to not go with Water Pope to learn about spirits. Her dad just didn't like the guy, and Tenzin was muh airbending.

Anyone else hate Korra Season 2? Once they jumped the timetree shark it was all over for me.

I mean, I'll watch it because I love the universe, action and artstyle, but the story is nowhere near as satisfying to me as the original series and season 1 of korra.
>>
The Book 2 blurays have some nice audio commentary from the creators. A lot of behind the scenes stuff is revealed.

For example, when Nick ordered 3 more seasons of Korra during season 1, they had to completely rewrite the ending Asami was going to be revealed to be working with Amon. This was going to be rewritten into everyone loses their powers and stays that way, Asami joins the military police with Iroh, and the series ends but because of the 3 more seasons it was rewritten into what we got.

Additionally, Nick wanted a different story focus for season 2. It was Nicks decision that forced them to make a new plot and drop what they were going to do. They originally were going to follow up on the equalists and have Asami be the main villain but Nick wanted a "bigger and broader" villain so we get the Unalaaq and Vaatu stuff because of Nick

During the commentary for the final episode they flat out say "Nick hasn't given us any guidelines for Book 3. We can do whatever we want this time, so we are."

>>
>>250365105

You do realize that you just argued in favour of parry mechanics being more skill reliant than dodge mechanics, right? Also it would make no sense to parry an attack when one isn't coming.

Furthermore, I don't know why having to have played DMC specifically is a requirement to participate in this argument. I've played games that focus on both dodge mechanics, parry mechanics, and both simultaneously. I've never played a game where failing to dodge has been more detrimental than failing to parry an attack. If anything you're leaving yourself open to more punishment by facing the enemy to parry and you will always gain SOME distance with a dodge.

I'm sorry what? Just because a character is a bitch doesn't make the show bad.

In fact, some of the most popular series ever created have a main character that is bitch personified, for example Zeta Gundam.
>>
>>250365262
I explained why dodging isn't a qte, and why parrying is, because it can only be performed during a select window when a notification pops up on screen.
If it weren't just a qte, you could do the parrying motion at any time, just like dodging, it simply would be pointless.

>Platinum has made sure that attacks are as fluid as possible, which means you can switch between elements on the fly, even mid-combo. He showed us sequences where Korra would bounce an enemy in the air with an Earth attack, shoot him with long-range Water strikes, jump up and land a dozen punches on him in rapid succession with Fire moves, then blow the guy away with a Wind attack. Finally, he would land and use one of the element-specific finishing moves to kill the enemy for good.

>You do realize that you just argued in favour of parry mechanics being more skill reliant than dodge mechanics, right?
and how's that? performing a parry relies on you being able to hit a button in a very similar way to a qte, and then it basically pauses the game and runs it's little animation giving you free damage on the enemy, while dodging is reliant on perfect timing as you can still mess it up.
The fact that you've played babby's first CUHRAYZEE but not DMC means you don't have all that knowledge about these mechanics.

Young Justice was cancelled because it was appealing to women. Boys were not buying the toys.

Instead of remarketing the series and creating merchandise that girls would purchase, they pulled the plug on the series.

This is how CN does business.

Nick on the other hand does not care about merchandise because they have the biggest merchandise series on the planet behind Star Wars, Spongebob. This is why more shows often get longer runs on Nick because they can survive on dvd/bluray sales alone.
