Well nothing has really changed. One more difficulty and some upgraded textures, big whoop.

If their expansion comes out and is incredible then maybe people will care, but otherwise what is there to say? It's Amalur, it hasn't changed.

Still a mediocre forgettable title.
If you have literally anything else to do on a backlog it's probably better than amalur.
Don't buy until at least 75% off.

You spelled 90% wrong.

Fatesworn DLC Update: The Gale Crossing
It’s been a long time coming, but we’re finally ready to give you a peek behind the curtain of Re-Reckoning’s upcoming DLC: Fatesworn. We’re wrapping up the final stages of production and in the meantime, we’d like to share a preview of the world of Fatesworn. Introducing: Gale Crossing!
Centuries ago, Gale Crossing was an integral stop on the bustling trade route known as the Sativa Road, a treacherous passage over the mountains that brought wealth and industry to a region once considered unlivable. But all good things must come to an end. After series of catastrophic foreign wars, the price of Sativa Fiber dropped dramatically, devastating the Sativa industry and gutting the region’s importance as a source of this once-valuable reagent. Despite these tragedies, Gale Crossing remains a crucial junction for travelers hoping to pass safely through the Eldrith Mountains.
After the fall of the Sativa Road, residents of Gale Crossing continued to rely on outsiders for their survival. Courageous travelers and merchants still hoped to pass through the mountains as a more direct alternative to shipping by sea, but the vast infrastructure for such treks began to disintegrate quickly without attention and maintenance. High Sativa prices had driven the boom times, funding improvements along the trade route, supplying Gale Crossing and smaller camps with the equipment to support travelers and their teams. Without this money, the mountain passes soon returned to their natural state, deadly and impassable.
Nobody with a brain bought it at AAA price when owning the original.

I tried to play the original and was astonished that so many people had recommended it. That it got remastered and rereleased was yet another blow to my estimation of our species.

Nice, planning to get it.
Loved the remaster, having never played the original back in the day.
The combat is easily way better and more visceral than Skyrim's...

We are in the final production stages for the Amalur Fatesworn expansion and we'd like to give another update. Unfortunately, the whole project was more challenging than we initially anticipated as we had to rebuild the content creation pipeline from the ground up. Without these tools, we would not have been able to build new worlds, dungeons, items, and other core RPG elements. However, we are in the last stages of polishing and plan to wrap it up in the next couple of weeks.
Below is a short taste of what awaits you in the upcoming Fatesworn Expansion:
Chaos Realm
It begins as a tear, a small gash in the fabric of reality, before widening into a gaseous purple maw emanating whispers. The hideous shriek of Niskaru will be the last thing you hear, as Chaos comes to Amalur. Across the land, unnatural rifts have begun to appear, filling the world with twisted spawns born from the Chaos Realm, a cursed domain, and a warped, inverted version of our own natural world. Some dared to enter these haunting portals only to find themselves hopelessly lost, prey to a labyrinth of tangled pathways, tainted magic, and ravenous beasts.
Are these the end times? Regardless of scholarly opinion, one thing is true: The Fateless One’s resurrection ruptured the delicate barrier between the mortal world and Esharra, the realm of pure magic, home to gods and monsters. As the Crystal War winds to a close, Amalur, already in a state of great unrest, teeters on the brink of total Chaos. New threats have emerged in the west, deep in the snowy Eldrith Mountains, and there is only one who possesses the power to stop them.

I played this game about 8 months ago and I completed it after about 140 hours
It was okay and mostly fun but I wouldnt recommend it because I found the combat to be easiest in any game I have ever played. Their was simply no challenge and you need challenge in combat to make any RPG rewarding and worthwhile
And then the lore was forgettable, I love lore generally in RPG but in this game the whole narrative was not interesting

"Completed it after 140 hours" "It was okay"

Why do you find my comment strange, you can find a game fun and still play it and that means you will finish it
But that doesnt mean you would recommend it because of the reasons I mentioned. I dont see the contradiction ?

He didn't, he said it was classic codexian.

My bad, I am new here as far as being active on the forums and Im still learning some of the Codex colloquialisms
It's because there are not many here that still adhere to the classic Codexian values, and that's why you're post is an interesting fresh air!
