people are going on about AOE spam being the most broken strat in this game (something that doesn't unlock until like 10 hours in) when sagecrafting and rushing health regen gems is possible within the first few hours AND you can be a martial class for the early game. how wrong were you frauds?
>>3987265Isn't the game broken like it can't be completed? Picrel looks nice enough.
>>3987265>people are going on about anything involving AmalurNo, they don't.
>>3987265>trying to break Kingdom of Amalur of all gamesThis is like trying to cheat on a race against a 5 year old. Literally all the character options are broken, just pick whichever ones you think have the most fun animations (it's faeblades and chakrams btw)
>>3987265Is the dlc worth it? I always skipped the game due to its lousy ratings
>>3987270they released a patch in 2023 that broke everyone's save file. that's when i dropped it>>3987272when i say brokenb i mean broken on hard. chakrams require kiting and dodging and faeblades have no range. healing gem spam means you can literally hammer the attack button until everything is dead>>3987284fatesworn is ass. the orginal 2 dlcs are good if you like the base game, and are included with re-reckoning
>>3987301That's it. It's playable now? I swear, playing first day is just stupid.
>>3987381nah it wasn't broken on launch, that's the funny thing. it had performance issues in 2020, which are fixed, but they just decided to break everyone's save file in 2023 by adding a new quest to the base game
>>3987386That's some level of incompetence that was thought impossible. 8 bucks for such an old game. Heck, it's even more expensive than kingdom hearts 3. How long? 10-20h?
>>3987265I hate when people talk about this game because it makes me want to play it again and I waste 20 hours playing it before realising I don't want to play it. I'm not sure I've ever made it further than half way.Does it work on the steam deck? Playing it in small handheld doses might actually fix that.
>>3987301>and faeblades have no rangeThe final attack in its weapon passive tree has a huge jumping range and stunlock. I don't think any other melee weapon offers anything better.
>>3987381>I swear, playing first day is just stupid.Waiting 14 years to play it is a bit extreme.
>>3987392I finished the game and both dlcs on my deck, works very well. Would probably drop in if I wasn't playing a universalist who can switch playstyles at will and easily max out every skill.
>>3987394Didn't even know about it until the saves got wiped.
>>3987391i had 55 hours before they destroyed my savefilehttps://howlongtobeat.com/game/79015>>3987392i have 120hz 720p on a laptop worse than the steam deck, high textures.>I'm not sure I've ever made it further than half way.the game's endgame loot starts appearing at level 16 and can be equipped at level 16 lol>>3987393by the time you get that there are a billion more broken things you should be caring about. weapons are for the early game
Oh wait, the remaster is a whole separate ass full priced game. Fuck that. I just have the original version. I thought they just updated the game. I can't be fucked playing it knowing there's a better version.
>>3987400>I can't be fucked playing it knowing there's a better version.You already have the better version if you have the original.
>>3987400is that delisted
>>3987399>destroyed my savefileHate it so much. Incompetent fucks.
>>3987265>mfw Kingdoms of Amalur and Dragon's Dogma are somehow the only two action RPGs with good combat
>>3987405That's ps3 for you.
>>3987407I don't know. DD1 was reborn with the PC port. Prior to it you were basically choosing between shitty general framerate on 360 vs framerate falling to single digits on PS3 when spells heated up.
>>3987400yes, but they released some expansion-size dlc for it
>>3987412It's bad apparently
Is joat fun? It says it needs 111 or so of 121. What does this mean? If I don't put 111 skills into it, I'm not a joat?
>>3987426It's fun if you like constant variety and trying different weapon combos. You won't get the high end abilities, but weapons are good enough, and the flame mark or whatever was its name is an incredibly strong spell for the entire game.You'll unlock progressively higher tiers of this class as you evenly spread skill points between three masteries.
I tried playing this game like 4 separate times, every single time i have a lot of fun at the beginning but i'am bored out of my mind when i reach the first big Fay city ( court of the summer fae, i think?). Is that normal?Also, the game desperately needed some sort of party-system or AI companions
>>3987449> i'am bored out of my mind when i reach the first big Fay city ( court of the summer fae, i think?sounds like you're spending too much time in the early areas and doing every sidequest. the moment you're level 13 you need to stop doing any of the non main/ faction quest stuff in any of the forest areas and beeline to rathir or adessa so you can keep scaling and fight new enemies and get new gear>Also, the game desperately needed some sort of party-system or AI companionsyou frequently get companions in most of the main/ quest faction dungeons. i like how it's done here, reminds me of jade empire
>>3987432Right. Guess I'll add sweetspot for martial rogue and pump sorc.
>>3987403Yeah they removed it so people have to buy Re-Retarded.
>>3987270I have beaten it, its alright the combat is the high note
>>3987301>when i say brokenb i mean broken on hardYes, anon, and I mean the game is fairly easy (though still fun) even on hard. Like notoriously so. Also far blades have gap closers and you can use chakrams without kiting, I know I did. There's zero point in spending your time grinding out the option that kills things in 2 seconds instead of 3 other than for curiosity's sake.
>>3987751Awesome, will get it next sale. Shame that DD and this are the pinnacle of arpg combat.
>>3987756ok, maybe i just suck or timing dodge rolls is second nature to you
>>3987265More like Kingdom of Bankrupt Rhode Island.
>>3987780Nah, I think you're just missing something/something hasn't clicked for you yet. I did eventually end up optimising towards the end, but that's because I ended up being caught in the smithing+enchanting gameplay loop rather than out of necessity. Or maybe my build (rogue + mage trees) was OP and I didn't realise.
>>3987794i'm not saying it's elden ring, it's just you have to do more dodging and positioning than i'm used to in rpgs. maybe that to you is easy, but to me easy means i can mash a single button while not looking at the screen and win every fight
>>3987270It's surprisingly polished for a massive open world game. There're only two notable bugs - the quest chain about a demon in a desert area can only be completed in a certain order, otherwise it breaks. And the final quest in the thieves guild requires you to get through a dialogue as fast as possible, otherwise the game permanently locks you inside a dungeon's room after it ends
>>3987301>when i say brokenb i mean broken on hardThere's a new even harder difficulty in the remaster, that actually makes combat pretty fun. It makes the game pretty fucking difficult in the beginning, but even at max level enemies can still easily kill you in a few hits.
>>3987804>pretty fun>enemies are extra spongy and can also combo you to death>doesn't even come with an achievementin the endgame what this means is you can't lose but you can be stunned and every fight takes minutes
>>3987805You quickly kill everything in the endgame, but everything can still kill you.
>>3987807>everything can still kill younot through 10 regenerating gems, elemental resistance and armour. i played on very hard originally, it was ass
>>3987808Should I play on very hard for the first run
>>3987801So it has a game breaking bug? Multiple saves it is then. Can the game wipe the hdd?
>>3987829fuck no. play on hard, then if you find it too annoying/ tedious drop it to normal
>>3987837Got it
>>3987265>rushing health regenMight do this. I love pumping up health regeneration. Especially if there are also berserk bonuses for taking damage.
