@hamza: Your article says the head designer of morrowind the third game in the series, but the trailer says the elder scrolls IV which is oblivion. just thought I'd point it out.
Also what is the point of stabbing skeletons? If this is anything like Demon's Souls that would be dope, but I doubt it.
Over all reaction: eh.
Show some gameplay videos and that may get attention
please explain which parts are terrible? i mean really it was a cool looking trailer.
Can't wait to see more!
Sounds like some talent is involved. Will keep an eye on it.

Up until recently, most information coming out of 38 Studios had been saying that they were working on an MMO, so I was surprised to hear about Amalur.
thats same what i thought too....
I hated Dragon Age.
Also, that voiceover actress is terrible. lolol Like, so bad it's funny.
holy shit. i am a huge fan of the dark elf and icewind dale trilogy. absolutely love his work.
