Avatar: Generations follows the story of Avatar: The Last Airbender and, The Legend of Korra the uber-popular anime you may have seen on Nickelodeon way back in 2005. Starting with the core group of Aang, Sokka, and Katara relive the anime through story battles as you help Aang try to master the elements and put an end to the fire nation's treacherous reign. Like the anime, the game jumps between Aang and Zuko’s questline. You can create a team of any avatar you like, however, some missions require a set group of benders. If you play the early Zuko missions, you cannot have Aang and Sokka accompany him. This story continuity was a good move, otherwise, it wouldn’t make much sense. As I stated, you can create a team of any bender you like for most activities and the all-new PVP battle arena. That is until you encounter a mission or PVP battle with someone who has ground to get an entire team of 5 stars, and your team of 3 stars just doesn't cut it anymore.

Each avatar/bender has 2 moves, but when used in unison with others, can create devastating combo attacks. The battles became pretty mindless very quickly. It felt like all I had to do was hit the attack that does the most damage over and over, then combo. The lack of battle mechanics really took away from the experience and I quickly found myself just activating auto-battle and watching anime in the background. Battle audio got tedious quickly as well, with a very limited amount of voice lines, and hearing Aang yell “Leave them alone” for the tenth time in a battle grew tiring. This could have been easily overcome by either having more voice lines or just making it so that every time they attacked it didn’t trigger one.
