So played the demo on PC, got to the bit just before a village where it says you now have 45 mins to explore. Was connected to EA servers too.

Is that the end of the demo? i exited then and watched the ending trailer, but didnt see the 2nd item unlock anywhere.

Do i have to play this game for 45 mins more? I hope not because personally i didnt like it. Has potential but feels very console actiony, cannot scroll camera back from character, just not for me and my PC.

^Yes, the second item unlocks right after the 45 min. timer expires.

I am looking forward to going OCD on this game, taking my time playing and running around and every time I stealth kill someone yelling "SUPRISE C^&*F%^"

Its gonna be sweet. I wonder how many more copies this cross promotion will end up selling. I know I was most likely not going to buy it even though I was interested. Now I am hitting gamestop tomorrow to get my pre-order in.

[Siven80]

thats....crap.

[LPPrince]

Yeah, definitely gonna take my time with the full game, just like Skyrim.

I've got 170 hours in Skyrim and I haven't beaten the main story yet.

I imagine it'll be the same way in KoA. Don't know about the amount of hours, but I'm going to take my sweet ass time with it.

I saw both items pop during the game but dont see them under my content here. Where do I look to make sure I got them>?

You just checked. Go back to your contents page and look at the top left- is your Gamertag/PSN ID linked to your EA account?

Look under the 'your registered game content' tab...over on the left hand side of the forum.

From what I've heard, all you need to do is just find a safe spot, let the character just stand there & go do something else - while the demo is running, then come back after the 45 min. is up.

Ahh found it. I just skimmed over it without seeing the three. They are there

Not really- there will be a prompt letting you know you have 20 minutes left.

You've got to get rid of that prompt and THEN let the timer expire.

Glad we didn't have another case of someone missing out on content.

Well, I succeeded. Got my Faeblades and Chakrams in one playthrough.

And the Chakrams, which I bought for 500 gold, completely TROUNCED my Faeblades, which were unique and from a quest.

Christ, Chakrams are mint. Definitely going Shadowcaster in the main game.

Yep, yep.  I was looking hard at all of the end of tier abilities as well as the tier 6 fate cards.  There was absolutely nothing impressive about any of the "pure" archetypes with the fate cards.  The only ones that really stood out to me were Finesse/Sorcery and Finesse/Might.  You basically have to choose between having much better passives and having 1-2 "end of tier" abilities.  Considering how much more you get by going 55/55, I don't believe it will be a hard choice to make.

This of course hinges on the preorder/DLC fate cards not offering anything better.  And yes, Chakrams slay.  The only weapon that is even remotely as good is the Greatsword.  The Greatsword is beastly vs melee combatants, but falls behind on enemies that like to dodge a lot.  The only downside to the Chakrams is that you can't add poison to them (I guess they aren't bladed!) and you can't really do anything other than pump up their base damage after you get the charge up ability.  Most of the other actual skills require a staff.  I mean at 50 or 55 you get the dodge move, but that's a long way away.

HELP PLEASE!

Ok, so I installed the demo last night on PS3 and was about to play it, but every time I do I get stuck on a loading screen that doesn't go anywhere, help?

Ah...okay then, there's the proper solution. :-p

PM's between me and Chris.

DiegoProgMetal:
It seems that lots of people (including me) have played through the
whole Amalur demo for PC but aren't getting the gun, only the armor. I
already played it 3 times, everytime the message about the gun is shown,
but no gun here in the registered content. Could you take a look at
that? I don't know if I should talk to you or Amalur's devs, but since I
only hang out here on bsn, I tried you first.
Sorry for bothering you and thanks in advance.

Chris Priestly:
It is actually a small number of people who are having this problem. It
is usually fixed by changing your protection software to let the
information pass from your PC to the server. If this doesn't fix the
problem, you would need to contact Customer Support here and they can
fix it: https://help.ea.com/

Since my firewall is wide open, and some people even turned theirs off, I think the only way is to try EA's help.

My plan for Shadowcasting-

1. Pump up Chakrams to the best of their ability, as they'll be my main weapons.
2. Get the elemental abilities as well as some healing(Healing Surge, Mark of Flame, Storm Bolt, Ice Barrage)
3. Definitely get Elemental Rage no matter what

For the Finesse abilities, I'm still unsure as to what to go for. Any suggestions? I'm gonna use daggers as Faeblades, cool as they are, just don't seem worth it when Chakrams are around. Right now I'm thinking about adding points to acquire Assassins Art and Lunge. If I forego Lunge, I can probably switch to Shadow Flare, but I don't want to be saddled with a ton of abilities and only using a few.

Don't forget what LPPrince said - there is a prompt you'll need to clear after 20 min. goes by.

Not when 20 goes by, but when there's 20 left.

Lol :-p

I really need to stop bouncing around different threads too much, or start paying closer attention.

I couldn't find too much from Finesse that actually meshed very well with Sorcery.  My first attempt was to see if you could use the poison passive on Chakrams, but razorblade boomerangs are apparently NOT bladed.  I tried using the first tier ability that supposedly "stuns" enemies briefly to see if I could charge up the Chakram spin, but that was a no go as well. 

I think about the only real way to go is traps (this shores up the Chakram dead zone), and I'm just assuming that those will actually work with the bonuses you get from the Sorcery tree, and you can pump up the assassination skill for your daggers.  I wanted to get the +10% critical passive, but I doubt that would work with the Chakrams either.  I am also not sure what piercing means yet (surely more than just arrows?) or how much of a Chakram is physical.

The two trees seem kind of like seperate halves that don't really meld together outside of the fate cards.  Poison blink and criticals giving mana, with a nice boost to critting and damage in general?  Yes please.  I honestly think this will be more of a Chakram/heal/tempest build more than anything else, with the Finesse skills being more supportive.

As flashy as some of the spells are, and as powerful as they might appear on paper, the casting times leave much to be desired.  The Chakrams seem like they are going to end up being a better area of effect spell than a true spell in this game.

I have both items listed in my profile...  I'd suggest you make sure your username and password are correct, then try to log in. Let it fail and X out of the login menu.  That's what I did.  After the 45mins ended I logged out, grabbed a Coke, and checked the BSN.  Boom, both items were in place.

[LPPrince]

Yeah, chakrams are mint in this game. You can almost always repeatedly charge the chakrams and do a wide AOE attack.

[LPPrince]

Plus, that Shadowcaster Destiny is WAAAY too tantalizing to miss out on.
