The story, without spoiling too much, is that you are a mortal called the \u201cFateless One\u201d who died in war and revived in Well of Souls. You have no memory of you life before your death and have no future that is predesigned, because you already have died. You now have control of your own destiny and have the whole Faelands to explore. The question is what are you going to do first?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">You can choose between 4 playable races. There are the Almain (noble humans), Dokkalfar (Dark Elves), Ljosalfar (Light Elves), and Varani (nomadic humans).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"353\" height=\"467\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.06.18-PM.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"94\" data-link=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/?attachment_id=94\" class=\"wp-image-94\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.06.18-PM.png 353w, https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.06.18-PM-227x300.png 227w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 353px) 100vw, 353px\" \/><figcaption>Almain<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"348\" height=\"457\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.07.18-PM.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"97\" data-link=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/?attachment_id=97\" class=\"wp-image-97\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.07.18-PM.png 348w, https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.07.18-PM-228x300.png 228w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 348px) 100vw, 348px\" \/><figcaption>Dokkalfar<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"347\" height=\"425\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.07.06-PM.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"96\" data-link=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/?attachment_id=96\" class=\"wp-image-96\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.07.06-PM.png 347w, https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.07.06-PM-245x300.png 245w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 347px) 100vw, 347px\" \/><figcaption>Ljosalfar<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"345\" height=\"488\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.06.45-PM.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"95\" data-link=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/?attachment_id=95\" class=\"wp-image-95\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.06.45-PM.png 345w, https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.06.45-PM-212x300.png 212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 345px) 100vw, 345px\" \/><figcaption>Varani<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">There are also so many different unique types of weapons, more than an average RPG would provide. There are the common longswords, greatswords, longbows, daggers, and hammers. But there are even faeblades, staves, chakrams, and sceptres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"190\" height=\"258\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/gamesoffutureandpast\/files\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-15-at-1.18.10-PM-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-100\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Personally I like to fight with the chakrams. Using arcing&nbsp;focused&nbsp;attacks as well as circular&nbsp;area-of-effect&nbsp;attacks, the chakrams are a mid-range weapon, good at dealing with enemies before they can get into melee range as well as disrupting multiple enemies with elemental vulnerabilities. The animations and fighting style for chakrams are very different then most weapons and so fun to fight with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Apart from the main quest in Reckoning there are also side quests and factions the Fateless One can help. You can also unlock and upgrade player owned homes in Reckoning and there is up to 8 you can own. Can you get them all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Reckoning is available for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and the PC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is a game that came out in 2012 developed by Big Huge Games and 38 Studios.
