Sacred review:1 stars (Boring unimaginative game) - This game is nothing but standard RPG hack and slash. Nothing new here, yeah big deal I get to ride a horse! The creators of this game try to make up for their tedious title by spanwing you to death. That must be what they think imagination is. Its been done so many times it let me count the ways. And I am really getting tired of this isometric view, why can't the user have the ability to rotate his view. If you want the same old stuff this is your game, if you want something that shows someone put a little effort into, skip this title.5 stars (Like a much improved Diablo) - Anyone buying this game should first of all download the 1.8.6 (or whatever version is current) patch from the official Sacred website. It fixes a lot of minor annoyances, including not being able to heal your horse when you drink a healing potion.
That aside, this game is like a beautifully rendered, modern-day Diablo. 3D character models and items set against gorgeous, photo-realistic backdrops make for an exhilirating gaming experience. The lush, detailed forests; the snow-capped mountains of the north; the harsh deserts of the far south - it's all here, and shown in amazing detail.
In short, Sacred is like a much improved version of Diablo. If you've a love for adventuring, for questing and "dungeoning", it's a must-buy. 5 stars (VERY ADDICTING! [My wife hates it]) - This game is alot of fun! I start playing it and I can't stop. There are so many things that you can do and with different characters. I start playing it and the day is gone in no time [that's why my wife hates it]. Very good graphics. This is my favorite RPG. I can't wait 'til Sacred Underground is available! Make sure you download Sacred Plus from the game site. It offers some improvments and extra missions and characters.
