Description
Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning is the revolutionary open world action role playing game brought to you by the dynamic team of New York Times best selling author R. A. Salvatore and Todd McFarlane, the creator of Spawn and artist of Spider Man. These two icons in popular cult fiction have designed a visually breathtaking world steeped in over 10, 000 years of history, all for you to enjoy and explore. You are the Fateless Hero, awaking to find yourself resurrected; you have been brought back to life, and are no longer bound by the tapestry of Fate.
Character development and customisation plays a big part in this game, with four playable races to choose from: Almain (noble humans), Varani (nomadic humans), Dokkalfar (dark elves), and Ljosalfar (light elves). Once you have chosen, you may pick a class tree through which to grow your skills: Might (warrior), Finesse (rogue), and Sorcery (mage). There are dozens of unique skills and abilities you can obtain as you play, and an innovative aspect of this game is that you can easily re-allocate these skill and ability points, allowing you to truly tailor your character to your specifications.
The fierce, third person battles you will encounter in this game boast an action magic combat system, with button timing presses and quick time events that unfold within each fight. You will gain Fate from each opponent you defeat which will add up to fill a bar; when this bar has been filled to the max, you will enter Reckoning mode. When in Reckoning mode, your character will gain extra experience points from every kill you make, and will be able to perform Fateshift attacks. These attacks are exciting finishing moves that allow you to ultimately decimate your opponent in greatly excruciating and graphical detail. When in battle, you will also have the ability to fluidly switch between your primary and secondary weapon with ease. There are also nine different melee weapon classes to choose from, making combat all that more exciting and versatile.
As you have been reborn with a blank slate, you can now also make your own Destiny using the Destiny System, and unlock more as you play through the game. These Destinies allow you to hybrid classes, taking the best aspects from each to make the most brutal and unstoppable character in the whole world of Amalur. Begin your journey now, and change both the Fate and the world of Amalur as you know it. (Cat Emerson)

Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning
Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning has it all - lots of quests, crafting skills, plenty of stuff to loot, set items, great character levelling, great graphics and a fluid and responsive combat system. It looks a bit like World of Warcraft, but plays far better. It's also single player only, which is exactly what I wanted. Highly recommended, if you are looking for a good RPG with so much content that you will still be playing in 6 months, here it is.

Decent Action RPG
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Action RPG with great combat. Combat at the beginning is very basic hack and slash but eventually when levelling up and upgrading skills you get different abilities and you get the "reckoning power" which really changes the combat into fun hack and slash. Story is dull in my opinion, but you really don't follow when you come across tons of side missions. Game looks great and has good soundtrack aswell.

More HACK'N'SLAY than RPG
Kingdoms Of Amalur is more of a hack and slash than a RPG but still a good game, nothing that really keeps you playing for hours in front your TV, but it's worth a buy when you like to simply slash your way through some Villains and get Quests like in any other RPG. Cool weapons, cool spells, easy char-levelling system with mighty powers and only a few classes which you can build by yourself. You can even decide for your own fortune, which can give you extra powers, depending on what you choose.

You have to have it
The game of ultimate action in a world in full war. Hours of play, talented trees, the capacity to become a Chemist, Smith, Witch, Warrior, Murderer, and with options to be good or bad. This game is magnificent and the freedom is impressive.

Great RPG Great FUN
EA made this RPG and from what I see from it, it has some resemblances to World of Warcraft and has some fighting mechanisms from God of War. If you are a fan of RPG Styled games this could be a fun factor for you. The story really seems intriguing and the adventure has it's fun moments. Pick it up and try it for yourself.

KoA is an action RPG featuring a new way to spend talents(you can mix classes) and using a fluid combat style.It has a good looking and cartoonist art style without an outstanding plot. At the hard difficulty it gives a good challenge.The world is big and full of quests to complete,within a semi-open worldmap exploration. There are plenty of amour sets and weapons and a good variety of monsters. If you love the pure RPG style you may remain a little disappointed, but if you are searching for a casual-oriented good game to spend a lot of hours then it is the right game.

Very big and lots of fun! :D
Kingdoms of amalur: reckoning is in my opinion one of the best games to come out this year. It has a massive world with tons of exploration, lots of quests, factions, things to do, but not quite in the Skyrim sense of an open infinite world. The areas are actually closed much like areas in games like WoW or Fable, but there are A LOT of areas. The combat is fluent, action oriented, and lots of fun, and is the main part about the game. if your looking for a light, fun title to kill lots of time with, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is the game for you.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning - great RPG!
After playing this game for about 40 hours, and reading tons of reviews about it, I can only say that this game has been given the treatment of being "Second to Skyrim" way too many times, and I believe it got lower review scores for that reason alone. Still, it gets great scores, but I can't help thinking that if this was released before Skyrim, it would have gotten a better reception. Don't get me wrong, Skyrim is an excellent game, but each one has their strengths and weaknesses. It's more Fable than Skyrim to me. Kingdoms of Amalur is a great game on its own, with simply brilliant game play, great graphics (if you like World-Of-Warcraft-style graphics), a huge world to explore and tonne of quests to do. Sure, the story could have been better and the talking animations' lip sync aren't the best, but for me, these are minor quirks in an overall excellent game. Between building your character, collecting loot, crafting new weapons and potions, and completing the main story, you will spend a lot of time in Kingdoms of Amalur's world, and after you finish the main quest, you are introduced to Factions, lorestone-finding, and lots of other activities to keep you interested for an even longer timespan. So, simply put, if you want a great RPG experience that swings more towards Fable than Skyrim, this your best option right now.
