In ATLA, the entire series was one long story, which each season being another part of the story. As amazing as the story was, it still limits the show. Once the story is over, the series is over. In LOK, however, each season is simply going to be its own story, with the following season a completely separate story from the last (with the exception to a few detail, maybe). This gives so much more freedom to the writers, allowing them to continue the show for much longer than ATLA. Because of this, we can assume that season 2 will simply be a separate story for season 1. It will have it's own conflict that Korra and Team Avatar will have to solve. This answers your questions as to why they didn't leave any room to continue the story next season; the story just won't be continued

KillerTomate wrote:It was total "CRAP". On this post i will go through a list of roughly 10 reasons why it SUCKED ASS!!!!!
1. What the Fuck Amon is Tarlok's Brother. That is utter bullshit. Why couldn't Amon be someone from the fuckin previous series, or is that to much to ask. Now this is just a minor gripe but how the hell was anybody supposed to guess that Tarlok had a brother. I mean all this hype about who is Amon, I thought it was going to be someone from the previous serious so that they could drop clues about amon and you could go rewatch Avatar the legend of Ang and figure out who he was. I was convinced that Amon was one of the Freedom Fighters by some of the clues they dropped but no he was fucking Tarlok's Brother.
KillerTomate wrote:2. They got rid of any Promblems Facing Korra in Season 2. By the end of the episode Amon supposedly dies and Korra gets all her fucking bending back. What kind of Crap ending is that. You have to leave some lose ends otherwise whats the point of having a season two. I mean they could have gone plenty of ways with it. Season 2 could have been about Korra getting her bending back but no they had to do some stupid shit with her entering the Avatar state and wala everything is fixed. WHAT THE FUCK. THERE IS LITERALLY NOTHING STOPPING HERE NOW. SHE CAN JUST ENTER AVATAR STATE AND FIX FUCKING EVERYTHING. This once again gets rid of all conflict Korra could of faced in season two. Also to just tie up another lose end Korra and Mako are together now....... sigh do they know how to create suspence at all. THEY GOT RID OF FUCKING EVERY LOSE END.(except for 1 explained later.)
KillerTomate wrote:3.Iroh is somehow a firebending God. What fucking bullshit he is like the human torch from the fantastic four. The part where he uses bending to fly is fucking the same thing the human torch does. Also to make matters worse why was he not doing that shit when they got attacked with planes the first time. And don't give me no shit about how they got surprise attacked so he was in shock and didn't know what to do. If he can fucking fly with fire im pretty sure he can kick those planes asses surprise attack or not. Do I need to say anything else on the subject...... the answer is fucking no.
KillerTomate wrote:4.Nagga became a fucking bad ass bear for no fucking reason. What the hell. First of all how did Bolin, Asami, and Iroh get captured but not Nagga. What the fuck happened why didn't we get to see that fight scene. Did Nagga decide to not help them fight that time, and how did they getting fucking captured when Iroh is the fucking human torch, but i getting off track. I was just pissed off when Nagga single handedly neutralizes the mech when it kicked Korra and her friend's asses earlier. Since when was Nagga a supper fighting beast.
KillerTomate wrote:5. Why would the Equalist fucking care if Amon was a Bender. So what he didn't tell them the truth, he's still doing what they want by getting rid of all benders. Why would they fucking want to turn on him when he's forwarding their agenda. It makes no fucking sense.
KillerTomate wrote:6.Why would Korra go to confront Amon after learning from Tarlok that he is a blood bender. I mean how fucking stupid do you have to be to know to avoid a blood bender. What should of happened is that Korra should have gone back and told her friends to call of the invasion. Then she could learn blood bending in secret from Katara and finally have an epic battle with Amon at the end of season two when she could finally somewhat resist Amon's bloodbending by bending her own blood.
KillerTomate wrote:7. The only hope for a story in season two is that Asami stabs everyone in the back by becoming a equalist and joining up with her father. That is the only loose end they didn't tie up is the fact that we haven't seen Asami's reaction to Makko being with Korra. Will she seek revenge...... After watching this fucking atrocious ending i don't think she will.

As of now, we know that LOK is only supposed to last one more season until the series is over. However, it was also previously thought that the series was only going to be 1 season to begin with until they bought another 12 episodes worth. It's likely that they may extend the series another few seasons after this, especially because of the great reception the show has been getting, and because of my previous point of each season being its own separate story.

I didn't like it much. I thought it had the same feeling as the rest of the series - rushed, cursory, and flat. I'm going to bullet my ideas with some elaboration to save us all a bit of sanity.

To tinyartist, don't forget that there is an entire season to come where there is a good chance that a lot of what you are talking about may be answered: How Asami handles Makorra, what the Equalist movement will do now that Amon is gone, etc. While I still believe that the next season will be a completely new story (read my first post), they will still have to take many of the details from the previous season to make it work, which could involve a lot of your points.
And who knows? Maybe I'm wrong and season 2 will be a continuation of season 1, with the Equalists still at large with a new leader.
Either way, it's very hard to judge a season solely on its own when the series has one overarching goal or story (in this case, it was to defeat Amon/Equilists; in ATLA, it was to defeat Firelord Ozai). If it was a series such as Spongebob for example (just the first show I thought of) where every episode is completely separate from the next, then you could judge the season on its own; you can judge every episode on its own really.
Just keep an open mind and wait for the next season. A lot of your questions may be answered then.

Kana wrote:I'm conflicted. I really liked the ending. I loved the animation, the twist and the new characters that were introduced. It was awesome to see such good fighting. And Amon being related to Tarrlok and Yakone was so... unexpected! The way Amon was exposed was great too! I mean, being not only a waterbender but a bloodbender too! That was perfect. But, I didn't like how rushed everything was. I think the last two episodes should have been turned into four or so. To give viewers a little more time to digest everything that was happening. I mean, there was Makorra, fighting, plot twists, bending taken away, old avatars, new characters and more! That's my complaint on it. Well, that and I think Iroh is too clean cut and old for Dante Basco's voice. But oh well. I can deal with that.
