Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning: The Teaser Trailer

Doesn't work 
 
There we go it works now. 

Looks like a cool universe. I wanna see more.

YES, YES, YES AND HELL YES. That looked awesome.

Wow seriously?

Very Nox-y / Diablo-y if you ask me. I like it!
Now I want to see gameplay.

Looks pretty generic to me. Of course, the last game I said that about was Demon's Soul's.

I think he needs a bigger hammer.

will the magic Baraka blades be a usable weapon?

What's with the Galadriel voice-over? 

He had very shiny armor.

That was some serious name dropping in that trailer.

That's quite the team they have working on it. The trailer was pretty sweet too.

Don't know how executing a skeleton with a sword works...

Teeheehee I called it. All this talk about how awesome the game would be and so far it just looks like any old fantasy game. I hope the gameplay looks amazing, because that CGI trailer didn't do anything for me and I have seen five year old cinematic more interesting and better looking then that.
 
EDIT: Good to see male Shepard still getting work in the industry. He's like the Nolan North for generic male actor hero character models in video games.

Aww Shit Son. Okay, this looks great... But it dies by the whole MMO idea, I HATE MMO's! It  just means that this game will look like shit and expect you to pay for it.

I wish they wouldn't include subtitles for new IPs.

The trailer does it's job well. It looks very interesting. People need to reed the text underneath the trailer more carefully however. This game is NOT their MMO, it's only set in the same universe.

Does "Big Huge Games" really matter anymore now that Brian Reynolds isn't there?

" The trailer does it's job well. It looks very interesting. People need to reed the text underneath the trailer more carefully however. This game is NOT their MMO, it's only set in the same universe. "

Giant swords? Skeletons? Fantasy world? Call me excited.

looks pretty rad. 

Looks cool plus lead designer for Oblivion working on it? I'm listening. Name is dumb though. Not very catchy and sounds like a bad D&D ripoff.

sweeeeet

Soooo...is Rich Gallup going to be on the Bombcast next week?

They definitely bill it as an RPG dream team.  Game footage pls!

That looked very low budget and second rate to me...
 
 
Maybe it's because I just saw the SC2 trailer and because they so blatantly ripped off LOTR with the female voice over.

Is the description correct in that it's an MMO?

This looks so old school and I couldnt be happier.

This is hyper-silly.  If you had some creature that was weak against silliness, this would be super fucking effective.
 
Salvatore means that it's going to be a really dreadful Mary Sue story where one invincible, omniscient character is right 100% of the time, along with the worst trappings of high fantasy.  Macfarlane means that all those high fantasy trappings are going to be given a ridiculous dark gothic overtone.  And the lead designer of Oblivion means that this game will be janky as all fuck.
 
I really wish they would've listed Curt Schilling in those name drops.  "From fantasy writer R.A. Salvatore.... Spawn creator Todd Macfarlane.... World Series MVP Curt Schilling..."

Hmm... good team. Might do well.

CG trailer is CG.  
 
Nonetheless, I am interested.

We will have to see how this game is unique, looks pretty boring right now.

The skeleton fight reminded me of the intro to Demon's Souls so that's +1 for the game so far. Hammer doesn't look heavy though so we're back to 0 again. 
 
Edit: then again it isn't that big so it gets a pass *dramatic pause* ...for now.

I will probably try this just because of my love for Rich.  I'm intrigued by the muscle behind it though, even if the trailer didn't quite wow me.

So I guess it's not a baseball-MMO after all?

holy shit they got cate blanchet lmao

<FANTASY LOCATION> of <FANTASY SOUNDING NAME>: <ADJECTIVE>

I like the visual design, but I hope those animations aren't indicative of the feel of the actual game. 
 
And yes, I am aware that this is just a teaser, probably contracted out to an external studio.

What? It totally is. It's just a very high concept baseball mmo. "

" That was some serious name dropping in that trailer. "

If there is something certain about this game is that it's going to be a solid-ass RPG in a highly-detailed fantasy universe.

" <FANTASY LOCATION> of <FANTASY SOUNDING NAME>: <ADJECTIVE> "

I'm liking the art design.

So the main character is like Double Raziel.
