Anyone else seen this?...

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

By the looks of it, it's one lawsuit away from actually being Oblivion/Fallout/Skyrim.

It's part designed by Ken Ralston, who was apparently lead designer for Morrowind and Oblivion...

I shall be getting it - hopefully - today...So it may put a sizeable dent in my time... ...The reviews don't paint any picture that would threaten the Elder Scrolls stuff, but it looks decent enough for a first game in a series...Apparently...

Anyone else looking into it?...

Yeah I've played this game quite a bit now. It is pretty fun after you spend an hour or so in it and really start to connect with the atmosphere and story. It is a very large and open game with what looks like limited or no level scaling, which means that if you try to progress too quickly you're probably going to get owned by enemies in certain parts of the map.

The graphics are pretty unique, as are the races and factions. The environments vary a lot as well.

I dumped quite a few hours into it and while it isn't Morrowind or Skyrim, it is a pretty entertaining game.
