FTG: "The truth is that a lot of love went into this game. KA:Reckoning is a game that looks like a classic RPG that should be in everyone’s video game collection. I’ve never understood some of my friends who play RPGs over and over again even after the main story line is done and there is nothing else for me to go find. KA:Reckoning is different: I want to play it, and buy downloadable content, and shell out $80 for the limited edition, buy an Amalur book and submerge myself in it as I have now become a fan. For a game that feels like Fable, plays like the Elder Scrolls, has the storyline of Mass Effect and vast feeling of Dragon Age, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is definitely one you simply must play."
Do you remember the good old days, when video games put fast hack-and-slashing combat sequences and extensive levelling systems first and a deep narrative with memorable characters second? BigHuge Games certainly banked on gamers holding some kind of nostalgia for those titles of yore with their fantasy RPG Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning.
This is hilarious that i would see an article after I went and re-bought the game and playing it all week! I love the QTEs in this game its satisfying, the combat is fluid where you can switch from weapons to magic so easily, the weapons, armor, quests, character customizations, lore, world, voice acting, are all great this game has almost everything you'd need and want from an RPG!
I really wish there was going to be a KoAR 2!
COG writes - The games of the last generation were amazing and the COGconnected team decided to get together to countdown their favorites. The countdown inches to number 6 and the games are starting to get good... real good.
The journey comes to an end.
Would LOVE to see a sequel to this brilliant game. Wouldn't mind a remake for current gen systems either.
Last I heard this studio went out of business so I would think a remaster is pretty unlikely.
I think EA owns the rights to it now. I loved the game as well. A rare gem overlooked.
Went into a cave for a mission...Mission glitches and I can't start the mission or exit the cave...Auto save and manual saves are within the cave....I messed up so bad I quit. Really good game though.
such a great game, shame about the studio.
to produce something of that quality as their first title, just imagine what they could have done with more experience.
