Very indepth interesting Hack n slash.

been looking to play some games similar to diablo 2 and i came across this one, I wasnt expecting much for the price however i was plesently supprised when i found that the game was not just a clone of diablo2. There are elements within this game which are very interesting some of these are; - Open skill trees, choose whatever tallents you want to combine them together to create interesting combinations. - Plenty of side quests which have their own story basis and have a reason for being there, not just slaying quests or "collect 50 quail eggs". - combat is very interesting, spells can be added together into a combo ( for example i have put a small aoe slowing spell together with a fire aoe dps spell to create a great combo for getting me out of tight spots) - can fight on horses, for spellcasters it can be interesting for a bit ^^. - choice of a good array of interesting classes, (not just basic DnD class sets) battlemage, vampiress etc. So far i have played 9 hours and i am very interested and the story is interesting and doesnt go over the top like some games i have played. and the combat is still fun even though i have really only used a couple of spells because i was being stubborn... fireball doesnt work too well on a dragon ^^. In conclusion its a very fun game, worth the price if you like diablo 2 or hack n slashes in general

Time Sink

I hate this game so much. Whenever I start it up, it takes me up to 6 hours to get out again! There's always something else to kill, a quest to complete, gear to buy!

Dragged down by bugs and an empty world

I played the base version of Sacred in the past, beat this recently with a Wood Elf. After exploring every inch of the map possible and doing all the quests, I finished with 52.24% explored at 83 hours 32 minutes. I consider this Elder Scrolls x Diablo. Instead of 4 different acts offering one base connected to a dungeon zone, Sacred is an one big world with villages and cities and dungeons. The atmosphere is great but exploring felt hugely unrewarding as there isn't really much interesting out there to find. Questing is pretty boring, there's a lot of them, there's a bit too many escort missions, and most of the rewards are runes (good but boring). This is made worse by high enemy respawn rate as well. The enemy density is also high enough that you cannot easily sneak around them. On the bright side, it makes farming easier, but it makes traveling a pain, especially through dangerous areas. You'd want to buy a horse with a high Speed rating or boost your character's Speed stat to outrun pursuers if you want to run through zones. It's not foolproof as there are enemies who can root you in place with spells, which may lead to your death if you aggroed too many things along the way. There's also some annoying bugs. There's at least three quest bugs that will prevent other quests from being completed if you do the wrong thing at the wrong time. My quest log was also missing completely when importing my character into Underworld. It happens even if I use the Demon and Dwarf characters provided with the game by default. I don't regret purchasing it, but I got it on sale and I did know what I was getting myself into. It's hard to recommend in general, but it has a pretty unique feel to it. I rated it a 3/5, docked to a 2/5 mainly for the bugs and how I felt my time was wasted wandering their huge maps for little reward. If you intend to try this, read a guide to understand the mechanics of character building, and don't waste your time exploring every inch of the map.

Fun At First, But Gets Very Annoying

As my review title says, the game starts out fun, with a neat blend of Diablo-style ARPG and elements from other fantasy games like Neverwinter Nights. It's the usual get quests, kill stuff, receive gold and cool items, repeat. But soon the excitement and novelty wears off, and the game becomes just an annoying slog. What appears to be a big, open world to explore turns out to be just a few towns with huge stretches of wilderness in between, with dozens upon dozens of monsters that respawn the second you leave and reenter an area. Apparently this is to make multiplayer more interesting, but I only did single-player, and it was just a frustrating grind, constantly having to fight off enemies, even in towns. You can buy horses that are somewhat helpful at dashing past enemies if you're just trying to get from point A to B, but many enemies have abilities that can stop you in place, forcing you to deal with them and their underlings. The voice-acting for the heroes and enemies gets extremely repetitive. There's one priest enemy that for some reason sounds like a woman doing a bad Spongebob impression and has a death-wail that goes on for a good five seconds, so when you end up fighting a bunch of them, it's just like nails on a chalkboard. And there's no way to disable the enemy voices without turning off all sound effects. This game has a lot of potential, and has aged well in many ways. The graphics still look pretty nice, and there is some fun to be had. But there are just too many little annoying things dragging it down to keep it from being a great game.
