This game worth the 60 bucks? I don't know if I should buy it because I just bought Skyrim/DarknessII..Skyrim was definitely worth it but Darkness2 was like MEH. So some1 help me decide if I should buy this thanks.
There play-testers have a contest, who can be the quickest completing the game. So just by sprinting all the time escaping from conversations and no sneaking, etc, the record is currently 200 hours! So if you're a "completest", reckon on 300 hours!
ya it looks like a game for little kids besides the gore. like u press like one or two buttons and it does it for u. this game has no skill at all. it is a waste of time i have the game and it got boring fast so i let my brother play until he beat the game and he said it was the same fghiting type and quests throughout the whole game i suggest no one by this worthless game
its not a deep rpg, no real decision making, battles are too easy. It is more like an hack n slash action game with added simplistic Rpg. It has sections of open world but not the freedom of Skyrim as you cant swim, ride a horse, freely jump as its restricted to fixed points, no climbing - you are restricted to auto aim too!...The side quests are very fetch/kill of the sort. No real twists, puzzles, figuring out, meaningful characters or plots in this game...Too streamlined & easy this game
is this game like skyrim open worlds so like u can just keep walking until u reach a boarder or is it more like fable where u have to take loading screans and can just free roam anywhere?
The prob with skyrim is the loot system, the "best" way is to simply run aroudn in difrent towns skill up blacksmithing and make dragon armor and u will never need to uppgrade it the closest 50h+
I really don't know if I could compare this game and Skyrim because this game looks like its going to be soooooo good!! I've seen more recent videos of this game and the battle system is SO kick ass! Its not all lazy and boring like some RPGs can be. You're actually doing the work with attacking and spells in this game, and that's what I like about it. You're the one doing the attacks and combos and whatnot. But this game and Skyrim are equally awesome, but in their own way. :]
This game is gunna be hell-a-fun. This time you wont be able to just fly straight through the game. They say this game has over 200hrs of gameplay, that is only if u do all side quest as well. And even if yhu dont, n just do the main quest, it still is over 100hrs. So imma have a shit load of fun playn this. And since ima take my time forgn weps, potions, armor, etc. im gunna have probably more than 200hrs of fun! CANT W8 COMES OUT FEB 7!!!
the GameStop pre-order as I'd get the weapons pack and some armor sets as well. That said, where are you going to be pre-ordering Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning from? You can pre-order from any of these outlets via the Amalur website. ( iv copyed this from g4tv [dot]com
if you pre-order the game from Amazon you'll get the Fate-Touched Weapons Pack plus The Ultimate Treasure Hunter Pack. This pack is "For treasure hunters who will dive into every nook and cranny in the world of Amalur, the Dowsing Rod will seek out all reagents for concocting potions on your in-game map. A worthy companion tool for any adventurer, the Dowsing Rod will help players get the most out of their alchemy skill."
hybreed classes you can be a mage and then you can put some skill points in the warror class and you can unlock a hybreed class and you did not no that
its going to be great! recently a press event took place & a guy played 7 hrs straight & made a bee line to travel as far as he could & do nothing else. He only made it to one coast line & did not get to see much of the world! There's almost 130 dungeons totally different, player houses & even a castle u can have. 280+ crafted armor sets, thousands of unique weapons that don't look the same. Main campaign 30-35 hrs, but hundreds of hrs if you do all side quests. 40 destiny's (classes) amalur.com
@LegendOfMen no worries mate, been following the game for over a yr. Just helpen u out :) I have a crap ton of videos on my page if you have several hours to kill. There's a few newer ones I have not added yet.
@d1v4dPwnz the Destiny's are essentially ranks of the 7 you referenced. It is a little bit misleading at first, however each destiny is not the same. A ranger you create and a Ranger I create may have completely different emphasis in it based upon how you spent your talent points. That along with how you've kitted yourself with gear and things like Twists of Fate cards will make you even further be distinctive.
@EASTSIDEDELI Oh, well I don't understand it so clearly but I play the demo a lot (experiencing different places in the demo during the 45 minute free roam), I love choosing the thief class (rogue), so you're saying 2 rogues can be different?
@d1v4dPwnz yes that's basically what I'm saying! I may choose to put points in daggers and traps, and you may choose to put points in faeblades and bows as example, and we would have the same title if we had the same points invested, but we would have different skills.
@EASTSIDEDELI is there a video of it or maybe a post somewhere? cuz thats some crazy good news about this game. this game kinda brings the best of other great games like god of war, skyrim, and fable.
..but most side quests are repeated again and again, the many so called dungeons are just linked tunnels and fairly similar looking, all the crafting of vast weapons is wasted as you can you use the same technique fairly early in the game on most enemies and win without much effort other then button mashing - no real need to experiment other then just for fun, main story is so basic with characters who hardly develop into much...11+hrs into the game
R.A. Salvatore wrote the history to the game. Todd McFarlane is the animator. Ken Rolston (ES3 Morrowind and ES4 Oblivion) is the lead designer. The company is owned by Curt Schilling; ex-pitcher for several teams but won the world series with the Boston Red Sox.

Just a heads up!
The characters in the game are called NPC'S {non-playable characters]
There is a online RPG out for the console called "Final Fantasy 11"
And you could do with having a talk with an RPG fan like me :) To get used to the whole lingo of things :P
Nice review though :)
