This game is highly underrated. One of the best combat games, exploring is fun too

An underrated gem that's a better written Fable and is well worth your time. Released some time after Skyrim, the game was overshadowed by Bethesda's offering and went under the radar for some gamers. Despite this, Amalur outshines other Action RPG's with its huge and vibrant world, nice graphics, good story, clever quests, funny dialogues and interesting characters. It's a shame that there wasn't a sequel because of some controversy but the future looks bright for Amalur whose IP was recently bought by THQ Nordic. Definitely on my list of top RPG's of all time, I'm hoping to see more of this IP in the future.

A worthy RPG adventure, focusing on moment to moment gameplay, visuals, and experience instead of a deep roleplaying experience. I had fun with its world-building and combat, and found the monsters interesting. Its open world nature becomes tedious, but the game feels and plays great. Recommended.
