Beyond: Two Souls vs Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Beyond: Two Souls
Beyond: Two Souls is a one-of-a-kind psychological action thriller-adventure game where you play as Jodie Holmes, a unique young teen born with a mysterious yet persistent connection to an immensely-powerful being. Join her as she sets off on a soul-searching adventure across the world to find out who she truly is. The game features puzzles for you to solve and several fantastic action sequences which supplement the epic storyline perfectly.The selling point in this game is not only because of the incredibly heartwrenching storyline but also because the game features the voices of A-list Hollywood stars and Academy Award nominees, Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe. There isn't a lot of games that can claim to have this type of honor and this speaks volumes about the quality that the game is able to deliver.
So, if you're looking for a game with a story that's gripping enough to keep you at the edge of your seat and yet emotionally-charged enough to make the most hardened criminal shed a tear, this is definitely the game you seek.
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!
