Amalur is still sitting on my shelf untouched, collecting dust. I really want to get to it but since I heard it's like 2 million hours long I always end up finding some other, shorter game to start.
I bet that cardboard cutout would like dinosaurs too!

2 million seems legit. Ugh... -____-

I stopped playing around the 15 hour mark, and can honestly say I barely put a dent into it and I don't even care to go back to it. Ever.
Glad to know I'm not the only one who feels this way! The devs basically just followed a check list to implant everything a western RPG needs but they failed to add any interesting ingredients to the pot.

Totally agree with you Spiders. Amalur is the perfect example of a game that is too long.

It'll be little things like a camera acting like it's off after an EMP blast, but it really isn't, or getting stuck in a rock, or getting spotted and the game doesn't register it until you try to get to an extraction point.... just stupid shit and it happens with alarming frequency. It's Ubisoft though, I shouldn't expect anything less - Ghost Recon Future Soldier was like this as well - it had game breaking bugs all over the place too.
Ubisoft glitches are the worst, aren't they? Fucking Future Soldier. A friend bitched on me to buy it so we could co-op. Yeah... good luck with that! No matter what we tried we just couldn't join the same party. Shitty game.
