Always remember to spend points in blacksmithing and sagecrafting. It gives better gear.

Criminally underrated. This is the first game of there what would've been and still may be franchise. You can make a legit argument that this is the best first outing in the Fantasy genre for a franchise. And I know there have been some greats. But the argument is there in my humble opinion

tips for new players here, these tips will give you an extremely well put boost on yourselves letting you play on very hard mode whit ease.

Here is a tip for people who play the game.

1: When going to recycle items, always save, recycle, and see if you get the best part of the items, if you did not get the part that you need it, just reload and that's it.
2: Invest in smithing to the max level, it' will give you an upper hand on fine equipment that you can craft yourself.
3: always pick reagents, they are free and when you need healing, just get on the menu, and bam, potions are costly, and the plants have the same effect.
4: always do early explorations and start whit normal difficult, when reaching level 10 switch to hard and then on 20 switch to very hard, the exp values change, the enemy level's too.
5: farm big enemies like leanashe, rock/mountain trolls, and crudocks, for secured loot of green, blue quality for crafting.
6: farm belts from the freeman people to get extra money in your pockets!
7: always buy jewels that give you chances to critical hits, health, and mana are always brought to you from the equipment parts.

Sales weren't the issue they sold 3 million copies. What messed them up was the tax and loan issues.

[drownoble]

WatchMojo really didn't do their homework.

Sales weren't the issue. It was bad management by 38 Studios, they were trying to make an mmo before Amalur even released and blew thru all their cash.

The DLC was included in the previous EA release, not in just the Re-Reckoning.

The video also failed to mention that those who owned the original (on Steam) got $20 off buying Re-Reckoning.

I spent hundreds of hours playing the original, I can’t wait to get paid and revisit it

[thedankone]

My all time favorite action rpg. Always made me think of a mix between Dragon Age and Elder Scrolls for story and world but with a heavy focus on combat.

[justinhall]

I don’t understand why this game wasn’t more popular. I played through it twice and I would barely classify myself as a casual gamer

[jeremybowers]

I was playing this over the elder scrolls V and I still stand by that fact this is the superior RPG. Call me what you want lol. Thanks again Curt Schilling. 👊💥🇺🇸

[galeden]

We just gonna let it slide that he called the Legend of Dead Kel, the Legend of Dad Kel?

[stevenladd]

I absolutely love this game. I recently got it on PS4. It's amazing.

[witecatj]

Focus skill points on blacksmithing and stagecraft. You can build better gear than anything that is unique or set class gear.

[derrickhaggard]

I love this game. And I'm hoping Fatesworn gets released with both a physical release, and a DLC release.

[alexlewis]

I played the original, chakrams were my favorite weapons

[dragonstorm]

Here it is, September of 2024, and im still playing and loving this game! The combat is amazing, the scenery and backgrounds of the different areas are beautiful, and the different combos of classes you can do is awesome! I've got 2 full playthrus of this, and just started another one about a month ago. Doing my best to experience the entire content library!

[donflamingo]

This game is absolutely amazing for real

[tigers]

I bought this game a couple years ago. I finally installed it this year and was blown away

[knightofnyiuh]

I wouldn't be surprised if we see more of Amalur someday.

"Here's an option to change your HUD."
*Doesn't show it*

"Here's mod support!"
*Shows generic clip that they already showed*

I did so well in my first playthrough never dying once, but I got cocky on my second playthrough and ran into red class enemies which means they are 4 levels higher than your character. Didn't stand a chance, but I did get the Out Of Your League trophy for taking out one of them. So on my current game I'm taking it easy. I remember on ps3 that you couldn't go to new areas in the game until you have reached a certain level. Now you can go wherever you like.
