Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning - Fatesworn Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning has been, for a very long time, one of the best role-playing games that almost no one ever played, but last year's release of Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning finally allowed more players to lose themselves in the rich world created by R.A. Salvatore and Todd McFarlane and enjoy its great mechanics and engaging combat.
Kingdoms of Amalur was originally released way back in 2012 on PS3. Last year it received the remaster treatment, curtesy of Kaiko and THQ Nordic, to become Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning. At the time I noted in our review that “The fluid combat, gripping story, and detailed lore makes this a thoroughly enjoyable experience”. But I also mentioned that “There’s not a lot of new stuff been added”. Well, that’s all changed now with the release of a brand new DLC – Fatesworn.
All I wanted Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning - Fatesworn to be was more Amalur. Give me an interesting world filled with interesting people, fun quests, and overpowered weaponry. Fill in more of the mystery of this decade-old world, and show me that this franchise might have a pulse after all, which considering the fate of the original game was not a sure bet. For the first half of the chapter I got my wish! "This is super cool," I'm thinking to myself, "I can't wait to see how this plays out!"
Despite some cut corners and undercooked elements, Fatesworn is a solid addition to Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning. For completionists only.
The Fatesworn expansion feels like an attempt at milking a game for content, with 6 hours of main quest that ultimately turns into a glorified fetch quest, and newly implemented systems that felt poorly thought out. If you absolutely must buy this, get it on a discount.
