5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Mix of All That Is Good In Games, February 7, 2012

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
When Big Huge Games announced they were working on an RPG, I was both skeptical and hopeful. I knew them for their strategy titles, and while they created quality games I was dreading another slow-paced entry to the genre. Well, it looks like all my fears were for nothing. While they don't deliver anything extraordinarily ground breaking here, every element they have pulled into the game are ones I have found fun in other games. And one point I feel I have to make early on: This is nothing like Skyrim. Many people have asked me if it's like Skyrim/Oblivion, and I'm assuming this has to do with the designer being involved in the game. Really, the only thing familiar was the lockpicking, the rest of the game plays vastly differently from Skyrim and it's a good thing. So on to the key points I get asked about:

Combat--

This is where Reckoning shines. The combat is slick and fun, and it's the first game I've heard touting the 'Play any style you want!' where it... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars I wish Fae were real and that I could be one., February 16, 2012
This review is from: Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning [Download] (Software Download)
This review is being written from the perspective of a gamer who has beaten Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning on hard difficulty straight through. I've completed roughly half the side quests and put 50 hours into the game. The one shortcoming (and I blame this on game burnout), is that I have only fully leveled my character up the Might ability tree, neglecting both Finesse and Sorcery.

This is a great game. It was an undertaking five years in the making and the look and polish of the gameplay reflects this fact beautifully.

The best part of the game, no question or debate about it, is the ability to tailor your combat preferences to your exact liking. You like big bulky weapons, but want to be able to cast powerful spells? No problem. You want to sneak around and backstab? Easy as pie. How about all three at the same time? Yup. You can mix and match all three combat trees to form your own personal badass. In fact, the game encourages you to do so by means... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Don't Bother Buying the Disk (PC), February 11, 2012
= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
DISK:

Don't bother buying the disk for the PC: it's just installing EA's Origin game download system. Now, you have to go through slow download and installation of an Origin update. Then, you log into your account -- I had to do it online through EA.com because Origin did not accept my username and password -- and input the game code into your account. Finally, you have to wait for Origin to download and install the game.

This process took about an hour. With cable broadband.

There is NO GAME ON THE DISK, just the game code, so you may as well buy a direct download.

GAMEPLAY:

Thus far, the story line is interesting but I'm still getting used to the controls (coming from Dragon Age 1 & 2). There is nothing in the box to indicate keyboard shortcuts and what the mouse buttons do, you have to go through the game's tutorial. In the mean time, if you hit the wrong key, you can run out of healing and mana potions because potion keys... Read more
