Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is another creation in the action/RPG genre with rather cartoonish graphics. Famous American writers of the fantasy genre took part in the creation of this project, and, it would seem, the game should have been a financial success, but it was released, remaining unnoticed by the broad masses of the gaming movement. And this is unfair, because this project, released thanks to the joint collaboration of American studios Big Huge Games and 38 Studios, has several interesting features. The official release took place in February 2012. This action role-playing game turned out to be the same age as a similar project created by Japanese craftsmen - Dragon's Dogma. Unfortunately, comparisons could not be avoided. Many critics noted the frankly unsuccessful decision of the creators to express the gaming space in the form of “Warcraft”, cartoonish and three-dimensional graphics. Not everyone liked this style, and therefore many gave their “viewer's choice” votes in favor of the eastern competitor. One way or another, Kingdoms of Amalur looks quite decent, stylish and neat, and the cartoonishness even decorates it, which is a pleasant feature of the game. At the very beginning, we are shown a prologue, during which we learn that a certain evil genius decides to bring all the free kingdoms of the world of Amalur to their knees. Our hero is a warrior, desperately fights against the invaders, defeats many alone, but becomes a victim of the numerical superiority of the enemy forces. But he doesn't die completely. Having come to his senses in the middle of a mountain of corpses (a mass burial site for fallen soldiers), the hero begins his victorious march through the magical world of the game, immediately after you choose his name and set the parameters of his appearance. Several playable races differ in their basic characteristics, appearance and skills. Two human races and several elven ones. The combat system is very convenient, the interface is always at hand, it is absolutely not necessary to switch between magical and melee weapons, the hero deftly controls them, dashingly eliminating any danger. The stunning beauty of the open play space invites you to plunge into another adventure through uncharted lands in the role-playing project Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning! Don't miss this opportunity.
