Excellent all-action combat, Rich and flexible character development, Masses of quests and content to get your teeth into
Settings and storyline a little uninspired, Doesn't have Skyrim's atmosphere or attention to detail
Kingdoms of Amalur doesn't have what it takes to be the next Skyrim, but it's a warmly welcoming and lovable adventure with excellent combat, superb character development and the focus on what most players like best about fantasy RPGs. It's not the kind o...

Abstract: Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning was supposed to be many things. A more mature Fable. An RPG with a superb combat system. A new dawn. Geoff's ultimate wet dream. The list goes on as long as the marketing hype of this title. But is it all that is was made out...
Abstract: I’ll tell you what, all these RPGs that I review just make me look like a lazy ass, especially epic-long action-adventure RPGs like EA’s latest Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Unfortunately though, while there is a ton of content, the game-play is actua...
