The lorestones are one of the best mechanics I have seen in a game to combine exploration with lorebuilding and even give gamemechanical reward to it. I especially liked how they tell you the story of the region you are exploring in a bards way.

I've always felt this game is criminally underrated. It came out at the same time as Skyrim and I ended up getting it for my PS3 instead.

Having played both Skyrim & KoA:R, KoA is more simplified, but a larger world would be nice. Even with the re-release, and the 2 dlcs, it feels ... Small. Hopefully, if there's a sequel, they add places like Alfaria and Fort Myria. I'd like to see the other races that are supposed to be in this world.

@kurtslavain 2 года назад

@@donaldlayton437 Yeah, I always felt KoA is too linear for an RPG. If they made a sequel that's less linear and more "open-world" and "multiple-choice" oriented, it would literally be the perfect game. Fallout New Vegas is the perfect example of how to make an Open World RPG, with multiple mutually exclusive factions you can join, reputation system, multiple alternative solutions to quests, leading to multiple alternative outcomes and multiple endings. . Also if the guilds have some realistic requirements, like "you need X amout of points in 'magic' to join the Mage's guild" or "you must successfully sneak through these guys/steal something to join the Rouge's guild" or sth. Also guilds and factions should be separate. Factions should be kind of "to pick a side", like a kingdom, tribe or political party, while guilds are like hobby clubs for a specific occupation: like warriors, mages, rouges, blacksmiths, enchanters or whatever.

@pjnorthbay 2 года назад

this game was the setup for the MMO that was supposed to launch prior to it crashing and burning. I believe that they have rereleased it to see about interest lvl and potentially more games. The entire world was created by R. A. Salvatore including the stories so he is tied to this game because of the amount of writing he did for it and that still hasn't come out.

@Immortalcheese Год назад

This game is so underrated and a hidden gem. A lot of the points you say are valid and I think reflects the fact that this is a 10 year old game at its core. The fact that every quest is a dungeon, fetch quest, with one ending, and all combat based, reflects the datedness of the game.

I love playing the Jack of all trades class with Chakrams and all 4 passives active at once later in the game you can get enough bonuses active that you can case magic with 0 mp as well as make yourself immune to all damage types (which i did to myself by accident during the last dlc) this games biggest downfall is after you do everything, there is no reason to keep playing, and the replay factor isn't very high unless you let a few years pass

@doctorlolchicken7478 2 года назад

The review mentions that this game does nothing new, but the ability and combat system is rather cool for an rpg. This is a rpg with excellent fast paced combat, where dodging, blocking and using special abilities blend well together. It’s what Skyrim combat wanted to be. Unlike the recommendation in the review, I’d say sorcery is the most powerful and visually stunning combat but also the least engaging. The warrior and rogue have more difficult and strategic combat. Rogues get better dodging, warriors get better blocking. I like splitting ability points between the two to be able to use all the fun weapon types. For a real challenge there is a mod that makes the combat much more challenging and I couldn’t play without it because the game is too easy otherwise. It’s also worth noting that there is a lot of world building and lore in this game. Many NPCs have tons of spoken dialogue beyond what they use for quests, so if you are in a hurry you may miss it. My main criticism of the game is that it is a very long game, easily one of the longest ever made if you try to do everything and don’t rush. And if you do rush you miss a lot of what makes the game good. Overall, the size and easiness work against the game and make it seem more bland. But as a combat rpg it’s I find it very entertaining.

@DTraiN5795 2 года назад

Yeah I’m getting that mod then. I love combat challenges and screw being a sorcerer who can just sit back and make the game easy.

@derpy_j 2 года назад

Other cons I would add, as I played the OG version and was hoping for some change in the remaster, but no : No mount. It still baffles me how big the overworld is of each biome and you get no mount? The stash in your homes has an inventory limit...... trust me when I say this - there are so many unique weapons and armour sets in this game, its impossible to keep them all. Because the stash chest in your home is universal, which mean it can be accessed from any home. It made it difficult when it came to collecting such things as unique armour sets as you had to find the standard helmet, chest, gauntlets, legs, etc, to the point I had to delete older findings to replace with something new I'd picked up.

@maxrander0101 2 года назад

the reason the races are almost the same is explained in the games lore the Ljosalfar and the Dokkalfar were once the same race think of them as we think of elves and dark elves they changed so much over time they spilt into the 2 races we have in the game the two human one are from a race that like them was once one but one became traders/pirates and they lost their homeland so long ago that they split into two tribes this lead them to becoming 2 different races over time hell its pretty much our real worlds race of humans we are almost the same yet we are not

@littleblackcat2273 2 года назад

I've put over 170 hours into re-reckoning on the Xbox One, and loved it. (Still haven't done the Teeth of Naros DLC yet). For me, the most frustrating thing was the inventory management as I wound up wanting to complete all the special sets of armour. I understand the comparisons to Fable in some ways, I also thought that the loot and inventory reminded me of Diablo III.

If I remember correctly, there was a "choice" at the end of every guild quest.. Also, I loved the DLCs more than the base game, as an atmosphere, armors, etc .. the collossae DlC introduced a new type of damage, the pirate one introduced a kind of mansion building and managing, they both have real good potential. I'd enjoy for a sequel. I really hope they add a new class/archetype in the next expansion, but I truly doubt it..but still.

Agree with everything you said. Did you think this game had cartoon-y graphics? Because I thought that this game did have more cartoonish graphics reminiscent of games like WoW, as opposed to realism. It was really the only gripe that I had with this game.

Sounds like you didn't play both versions, re-reckoning is far more enjoyable to play especially when you factor in the new level scaling system, instead of locking the level when you enter a region, now when you level up, leave a region and come back the levels of both the enemies and loot is re scaled to meet your level, in the original reckoning this was not the case and was broken, re-reckoning made the necessary adjustments to make sure loot and treasure isn't useless

Solid review, for me this game has one the most compelling story and environments I've ever seen in an RPG. The only thing that held this game back from true greatness, imo, was the combat that was fun and satisfying but just shy of true polished greatness. I do think if more iteration could have been done on the combat system then KoA would have absolutely been a complete smash hit. But simply from the absolutely fantastic voice acting and constant flow of whit and humor just makes this game so endearing to me even today.

Soften them up from a distance then finish them with Melee or Sorcery.

Thank you, even subscribed after this, quite informative! I myself borrowed the game from a friend of mine way back and played about 15 hours on the 360 but never completed it. Always saw it as a action Fable. Bought the re-reckoning edition along side KOTOR 1&2 today, having uninstalled Division 2 after playing it for six months straight. Glad to hear that magic is powerful in this game as that is what I tend to gravitate towards in fantasy RPG's, so I'll be playing on hard difficulty I think.

Played the game several years ago and consider it one of the Best SP RPGs ever made. Perfect? No. But damn good.

highly recommend speeding up the game to 1.3 or 1.5x speed using cheat engine. makes fights actually difficult, until you craft your own armor anyways...

as someone who loved the original i really enjoyed the remaster, it fixed my biggest issues with the original that was the terrible camera angle, now you can change it and it feels much better

@themarauder6108 Год назад

The checkboarding is noticeable on the Series S, don't know if it's like it on Series X, PC or PS5. There's some character model texture issues (especially on elves near the ears) and some of the missions can't be completed because they're broken.

They might have changed it for the remaster but even on hard I found it very easy to accidentally mid max myself just by doing all the side quests and exploring. Before I’d know it, I’m 3-5 levels ahead of all the enemies in the area.

@roguerifter9724 Год назад

I love this game. I pre-ordered it for the PS3 then pre-ordered this version for the PS4 and its one of my two or three favorite fantasy setting Action RPGs for the PS3.

@donaldlayton437 2 года назад

I don't know if you played the different types of races, but the gods vary by race. The only thing that is consistent between all 4 is the self-sufficient choice. Though, I hope any sequel will allow all gods for all playable races. Same goes for customization. All hairstyles and facial hair. Maybe add more tattoos 2. As for combat, I think the might/sorcery is better. It allows you to use mage weapons, but wear the warrior armor for maximum protection. I feel that blacksmithing and sagecraft ate the 2 best skills since they allow you to make incredibly powerful weapons and armor. Also, Re-reckoning gives more loot and gold than the original.

back in like 2013 or so I briefly met with one of the writers for this game. I basically told them I thought the writing kinda sucked and I still feel bad about it to this day lol

@superteen1717 2 года назад

I heard they are working on a sequel 👀 but then again I heard in 2019 that they were gonna wait and see how well the re-master did. 2 years later no leak of anything and still no dlc. Maybe someone should remind them of the lack of the extra dlc we all paid for... 🤔

@skjefull8786 2 года назад

Pretty much what I thought when I played the original. Didn't care enough to finish it though, as fun as the combat was, the story and world didn't hook me enough to carry me to the end.

@Shikao87 2 года назад

Nah, even the new DLC won't convince to get the remaster, but I totally recommend game for people who didn't play the original.

@Exaltable 2 года назад

Eh the game rebalanced the massively skewed and broken difficulty from the base game. The original release was ridiculously easy especially with crafted gear to the point that it was hard to enjoy overleveling and not being able to use any of the dropped unique items. I straight up dropped the original game half way through because of how boring I felt the game was while trying to make it difficult.

@BurlapRat 2 года назад

I feel like I enjoy the game but I do have some gripes for sure. The big one is that I feel that combat is kind of buggy. So I am playing a stealth finesse/sorcery character. So off the bat you can stealth attack pretty much anything but larger enemies won't die from the initial hit. So what ends up happening is that you hit them but while you're in your stealth camera attack animation they just get up and start free attacking you while you can't move or anything because you're in the stealth attack animation. Sometimes in melee combat I'm attacking something and I'm somehow not hitting it even though I'm in melee range and I'm going through the combo as if I'm hitting them but I'm not actually hitting them. The game also doesn't deal with mobs of enemies well. Like when there's more than two or three enemies or even two or three enemies depending on the type you can literally die so fast because they're all attacking in different ways and you have a hitstun when you get hit but sometimes enemies don't have hitstun when you hit them. Also the stealth in general is pretty trash like I guess I'm used to Skyrim and Fallout stealth like this just feels useless. Like the game is fun but I just feel like it almost doesn't feel finished in some ways?

@theprofessorjools 2 года назад

Your review was impeccable. I agree that it is not original or that it does feel a lil mediocre depending on how you relate to the game. But I think it is as good as it could have been. As someone who was a teen in the late 90's playing Ultima Online this game at that time felt like a dream come true when you consider growing up on UO and Diablo I and II. Something not that far could have been said about Dungeon Siege #noshot

@twistedcherrypop 2 года назад

i played the original version again last week and have started rereckoning this week as I was so frustated with the buggy gameplay and i see a massive graphic difference on my pc, also fov makes the game feel different and the gameplay experience also feels better. No they didnt do flashy changes, but rereckoning feels and plays much better than the original on pc.

@gregoryg.7940 2 года назад

Not a bad review but I would argue completing the game 100% did not contribute in any way to your review. If someone completes a game 100% I expect to hear how difficult it is, is it fun, does the content gets tedious or repetitive, how much endgame content is available, are you satisfied or consider your time completing the game wasted. I'd say this review did not include anything a person who just completed the game normally couldn't have said. On the other hand you present your points in a clear and simple fashion which I enjoy and I do think You will improve with time, subbed.

@MisterEnsayne 2 года назад

I love this game so much but the remaster was terribly disappointing, I could have just booted up my 360 version. The fact that they charged us for DLC that doesn't exist yet is egregious. Would love a sequel though.

@farlonmuentes6004 2 года назад

i picked up this game because i had nothing else to play and i thought the title was stupid because it's not a series yet it was titled this way but this game was really fun back then. i used chakram because that weapon looks cool but if it were released today, it should have some sort of depth to it because you are just fulfilling the requirements for destinies and it makes you feel like have less control over your character. i liked this game because it wasn't trying to be dark souls which every rpg game is trying to be now.

@paStLife463 2 года назад

While I enjoyed this game immensely when I started playing back when it first came out, it's also, one of those I never finished. Mainly because it was a failed attempt as an MMORPG ...and that fact shows: immense gameworld filled with repeatitive quests, NPC and monster skins...If the gameworld was smaller and richer in enemy types then we might be talking, nowadays, about Kingdoms of Amalur 3 and not a Re -Re....It had THAT much potential.....

@@paStLife463 I don't ever remember this game being marketed as an mmo, it was a passion project for a guy who created a studio just to make the rpg he wanted ro play. Had connections, got a story written and had Todd McFarlane do all the creature design. Came out and failed cause it was going up against the monster that is Skyrim. It's also unfair to compare this to Skyrim which had a huge dev team and budget behind it. This game deserves a lot more credit than it gets because it is always compared to AAA games.

I'm playing the original version and I enjoy the game as it gives me those vibes I felt during my 1st login as ex-wow player. On the other hand after the elves' chain quests most of the time I find myself having to complete X-side quests that are a boredom fest.
