Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning vs Titan Quest
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is an amazing action-based RPG which we frankly think was one of those RPG gems that were somehow overlooked. Even with its age in mind, the game still does well to cater to fans of RPGs today, giving them a memorable storyline based on a universe created by none other than the legend in fantasy novels, R.A. Salvatore; a host of interesting characters to interact with, and a massive open world to explore. Character customization is pretty extensive here, allowing you to change your character's class, skills and abilities to fit your play style. You can change your character's equipment as well.The amazing part about this game, aside from its immersive storyline and world, is how seemlessly it has managed to integrate magic-wielding with swordplay (it doesn't exactly have to be swords though) in its exhilarting action combat. It does make you feel like you are in the shoes of your character.
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning may not be a "Skyrim"-sort of game, but it's incredibly in-depth, able to offer you hundreds of hours of play time at the very least, especially if you are determined to complete every side quest and explore every corner of the beautiful world. It's definitely worth every cent you spent on it!
Titan Quest
Titan Quest is an innovative mythological action-RPG that pits you into an epic quest of good vs evil set in the beautifully-designed lands of ancient Greece, Egypt and Asia. In this game, the mighty Titans have escaped their supposely eternal prison to cause unspeakable chaos on the inhabitants of Earth but unfortunately, the Gods aren't able to interfere directly and put a stop to the Titans' rampage. Instead, they searched for a hero who can help save the world - you!With many legendary heroes like Agamemnon and Achilles accompanying you in various legs of your journey, you will need to hone your fighting skills so you can defeat all the enemies that come your way, be it the famed villains and creatures of Greek mythology or even the Titans themselves. You'll also get to completely customize your character from head to toe. Interestingly, aside from its map editor where you can create whole new maps to adventure in, the game even has a multiplayer mode where you can group up with up to six other players for some cooperative gameplay.
Titan Quest is an impressive specimen of a game where you get to play out all the incredible mythlogical and legendary stories you've heard countless times in your youth while being in the shoes of the hero himself! That said, some players have reported having troubles with game-breaking bugs in the Steam version. Thus, if you can experience the game on any other platform, maybe you might want to try those instead.
