I hate it when reviewers and the devs pump up a game to be something its not. Let your game stand on its own legs. You know what will be a "Skyrim killer?" The next Elder Scrolls game. Now, tell me what makes your game unique and better not more of the same old same old.
For example, you said the combat in this game was great. Pimp the shit out of that, devs and reviewers, because EVERYONE knows that the combat system in Skyrim is clunky and chunky.
RE: Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning... a remaster; another chance.
