OXCGN:
"If you’re a part of the minority of gamers who hasn’t purchased Skyrim yet, welcome to the club. Many have had more than enough time to play Bethesda’s Skyrim till their heart’s content but with no other recent RPG offering much in terms of gameplay and content can you really blame them?
2012 is already looking good...
Enter Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning due out February 9th, developed by 38 studios and Big Huge Games and published by EA Games.
EA Australia was kind enough to invite OXCGN along for a lengthy 2 hour hands on with the game, and what I saw was promising."
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.
It is good to see other RPGs coming out and a mix of God of War and Fable sounds quite interesting.
I've never really heard of this game...and it's coming out in February.
Looks good actually.
Hadn't heard of it either!
im excited
All thanks to Curt Schilling!
