Can't decide if I want to get this or kingdoms of amalur.
pros and cons, since I have them both.
Skyrim-
dull colors
Extremely boring combat
lasts very long
more customization
much bigger
lots of replay value
Kingdoms of Amalur-
Bright, vivid, beautiful
Tons of ways to fight, multiple attack types, no boring combat
just a BIT of a button masher
big world
not much replay value (but DLC is coming out)
really only 3 player archtypes, but you can mix them (i.e. 1 + 2 or 1 + 3 instead of focusing on directly 1)
