this is kinda neat!

I'm keeping my eye out for this now!

You know, Brad, you could NOT include a shitty, pointless image in the news. That'd work just fine.

RIIIIIIICH GAAAALLLLUUUUP!!!!

Well those sentiments are exciting if they can be borne out in the final game.  I might even buy it!  But there's a long way to go first and a lot to prove in the meantime.

Haha, I read it as "Kingdom of Amature"

hope the combat is better than it was in oblivion.

Looking forward to Rich Gallup's lazy ass finally putting something out. :D

The gore looks amazing, this could beat Dragon Age in terms of blood!

If the game is half as good as the star power behind those names it'll be a masterpiece.

I thought they were making an MMO?

That sun is NOT happy about Mr. Stickman killing that poor fellow over there.

Of course, as soon as the Bombcast hits later we'll have more exclusive details, exclusively for Giant Bomb, exclusively.

i was hoping for Lincoln force

Sounds good!

Sounds promising?

I dunno, there's still time for polish of course, but I'm just not feeling that screenshot. Maybe it's the cell shading.

I take back anything disparaging I ever thought about Mr. Nicholson, that picture is pure gold.

I think Brad should design the cover art of every game ever made, he should have a monopoly on the art like the guy who takes pictures of fast food burgers.

I will buy this game just to take pride in the fact that I am putting food on Rich Gallup's table.

It will be hilarious if these games bomb horrible when they finally announce them, or if they finally reveal them and they just look like any other generic RPG of the month. Whenever people build stuff up like this it's always a let down when you see the final product because nothing can ever live up to what peoples imaginations can think up. The longer you let things build up in peoples imaginations the bigger the let down will be when it finally comes out.
 
Time will tell, but I'm always very skeptical when companies keep saying things like "Just trust us, it's going to be amazing!" over and over again.

" I will buy this game just to take pride in the fact that I am putting food on Rich Gallup's table. "

I like what I hear so far

There is too much investment in this game from the GB community and possibly the staff that when it comes out, it will be the worst shit storm to ever hit the forum

" I will buy this game just to take pride in the fact that I am putting food on Rich Gallup's table. "

If this fluid combat works anywhere near as good as Batman: AA then I am totally on board.

If the final game doesn't live up to the graphical prowess of Nicholson's concept art then I am out.

The name of the game does not give me confidence... "Fantasy nonsense: the semicolon"! 
  
I'd hope it's great anyways...

The name of the game is so bland that I'm sure I will not remember it in a few hours.

I'll reserve judgement of the game, but the title is pretty horrible.
Amalur is a pretty bad fantasy world name..  Only mildy better than Antaloor.

" Fluid combat huh????  We'll see about that! "

It's nice to know that Rich really has been working on something so we know he's earning his paycheck.  Now get him on the Bombcast so he can talk about it.

Angry sun is angry.

" Angry sun is angry. "

I'm sure it will at least be a fun open-world Western RPG. Even ones with ridiculous bugs like Fallout 3 managed to steal days of my life away.
Also, Nicholson, keep up the good work with the artist's renditions.

Awesome pic Brad. I hope this ends up on the back of the box

YES, more professional recreation drawings Mr. Nicholson.

Rich Gallup the game!

Since it is set in the same universe as Copernicus, I believe that game will be called Kingdoms of Amalur: Something Else.

That title... is the single most generic thing I can think of. I probably won't be able to remember it in a few hours. Nonetheless, one Richard Gallup has talked quite a big game about his company's product. It will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Pretty awful name!

Aw, no references to Rich Gallup in the article?
