So I am totally surprised that there isn't much more interest in this game. It appears to be the Wesern equivalent of Kingdom Hearts. If KH is Final Fantasy + Devil May Cry then Amalur is The Elder Scrolls + God of War. And it looks amazing! It looks like something that people on a KH board would definitely get into between games. There is stated to be over 200 hours of gameplay so it will be a good time user in the wait for KH3 . Demo comes out on the 17th and full thing on February 7!

^ I am super excited about the Destiny system. It looks like a great blend of Class system and Job system.
