Conclusion?
If you want to play it for the first time to explore the world - you'll love it, IMO.
Sacred was an excellent, fun game. But how is it possible that GOG only offers English, French and Russian translations of a German game? The original German speakers were awesome, a veritable who's who of German actors and actresses. It boggles the mind.
Like the sequel, Sacred is a very large open world ARPG. The combat is not super complex but satisfying (although a bit easy as well). There is enough Character differences to make it worth while to see which character playstyles suit you the best.
Quests can sometimes be a little buggy (enemies that should spawn for certain 'defeat x amount of enemies don't spawn in the places as they should.), some quests can also be a little obtuse with very little description in the quest journal for guidance. Horse traversal is good, but buggy. Graphics are good for their time, but also show their age in comparison to Sacred's ARPG contemporaries.
If you don't mind some of the jank, but like exploring a large open world with decent character selection, try out this game, you like it, buggy warts and all.
