I figured since I have about ten hours into Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning now it would be a good time for a break, and let you know what I think about the game. First of all since I have already played it ten hours it is a pretty safe bet that I am loving the game.
The story so far is very intriguing. I look forward to hearing more of the story with every quest I complete. I never thought I was a lore, or story guy but it really adds to this game.
I just finished killing Balor. He seemed much easier than some of the other mini bosses leading up to him. It looks like I still have quite a bit of story left in the game. I have no idea how many hours you are supposed to enjoy the game, but I reckon I am probably halfway done.
I am kind of a noob when it comes to this game though. I still don't really know what I am doing sometimes. I finally figured out how to craft some potions, but of course it was after I have been selling all the stuff I have been harvesting.
I still haven't figured out lockpicking. I have put several points into it, and move the pick around, but nothing ever happens. I have to be missing some command or something. I will have to see if I can Google it.
It was almost to the seven hour mark before I figured out you could map slot your healing potions, and hit tab to bring up the radial bar. I was doing it the hard way by going in my inventory, and selecting one when I needed one. It was slow, and cumbersome.
I am playing the game on the easiest level, and I still die alot on boss fights. I am probably not doing it right, and will eventually figure it out. The Chase Otrienne quest almost made me ragequit I died so much until I finally figured out how to use my self heal ability.
Right before I logged off for the night I looted this great sword, and it made my night.
