"Kingdoms of Amalur is still a solid game even to this day. It&s;s just too bad that as a remaster, the game is quite frankly disappointing."

"A notable remastered work, especially when you take into account the original game&s;s limitations, Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning is a great way to discover this universe and a well earned second chance for a game that was unfairly forgotten."
