Fallout 2 vs Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Fallout 2
Fallout 2 is the next exciting sequel to one of the world's largest post-apocalyptic-themed RPG franchise, Fallout. Featuring the franchise's iconic open world where you are free to do whatever you like (you can opt to not follow the storyline as well), this sequel is jam-packed with even more varied characters, creatures and storylines that brings out the humanity in its players as they traverse the vast wasteland.As usual, the game provides players with in-depth character progressions in the form of its hallmark S.P.E.C.I.A.L. traits system along with the range of improvable skills that are often critical to ensure your survival in the harsh post-fallout world.
Fallout 2 doesn't really deviate much from the original first game, perhaps mainly because the developers are trying to play it safe, but it is still a great game to play.
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!
