Has anyone finished the Main Quest in Amalur yet?

Not yet, I'm in Klurikon - level 23 about 37 hours in.. keep getting distracted by the faction questlines.

Doing a 2h Might/Sorc build, the magic shield once you get damage orbs + relentless assault actually go really well together.

Quick question, is going through the game doing all the sidequests first then going back and doing the main story all at once a viable gameplay option? I'm not really fond of the story lines twisting so that I forget what happened last since I got side tracked. I just don't want to gimp myself somehow.enorox

Is it possible to just stick to the main quests and skip the side-quests?FelipeInside

So, how is the game? I've only played the demo. I liked the artwork and music. I wasn't crazy about the gameplay. I guess I'm asking if the storyline and quests are interesting.

Some of the quests are interesting, some aren't - it mainly falls into the realm of personal taste. The Main Quest has the most involvement. Some side-quests I encountered had a unique twist to them.

As far as gameplay goes, the combat gets better because you get to choose how you level, what weapons to use, what to wear, and so on. The best part is, if it doesn't go the way you want, you can reset everything and reassign all of your level points.

Loot you pick up, you have more options than just selling them, you can break them down, build new stuff, and even name your creations.

I think it's a great game because of this - say you start out as a mage and wind up not liking it, you can switch your level points and become a full-on fighter, a rogue, or any combo of the three (or two, depends upon what you want).

Oh, and one other thing I liked, you don't have to be a rogue to open locked chests.:D

Huh. Well, thank you for the info. Maybe I'll check it out for myself.
