Rating:8
Deep character building, and thrilling combat offset the weak story.
In the time I had with Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning, I found myself impressed, and entertained in ways that aren't typical for an RPG. I've recorded my thoughts on the game below in full, but for those of you who are in... Read Full Review

This game should have stayed an MMO. Boring, bland, lifeless world with absolutely no story.
This is a long meandering boring review for a long meandering boring game. All of the problems with KoA come down to the fact that it was originally planned to be an MMO. Objectively MMOs are awful. They are basically... Read Full Review

Great character customization and overall game-play!
This is such a great game. It draws you in with great game-play and great character customization. I can truly say this is the best RPG game I've played in a while. This is coming from a big GTA Series fan. You will find... Read Full Review

A very well-made mediocre game.
Did you ever wonder what would happen if the former designer of Oblivion teamed up with a premiere fantasy writer, a has-been comic book artist, a retired Major League Baseball player, and made a videogame? Well I know ... Read Full Review

I am so tired of the dark, dreary game. Amalur is refreshingly colorful and more of an adventure!
Compared to Skyrim, Amalur is more colorful and the charactrers are more interesting. Skyrim is too dark and dreary. I love the magical world of Amalur. It is what fantasy and Role-Playing games are about. There is a... Read Full Review
