Okay, I am not going to be just pointlessly bashing Kingdoms of Amalur's combat but I find that it is a bit button-mashy.
For example, you can win essentially every fight by mashing the roll and attack buttons (b and x).
Maybe it will be improved in the actual game - all I've played is the demo.
But I was especially disappointed of the combat since this whole time, Ken Rolston (lead designer) has been going on and on about how much better it is than all other rpg's.
I gotta be honest, I believe Skyrim's is far superior.
What does everyone else think?
