A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Been over a decade since I played Sacred 2 on XBox 360, so I thought I'd play through it again since I remember having much fun last time. Got Gold edition on Steam and the community patch so it doesn't crash due to memory leaks lol

Doing a simple BeeEffGee build, so Revered Technology is my main aspect, with some put into Exalted Warrior.

Loving the fantasy tech magic theme, with T Energy pipes everywhere, environmental issues due to them bursting, all the animals and npcs that make the towns feel like places people actually live.

So much to do and find, it really is a great game and I highly recommend it if you're into this kind of RPG. Take note, though, that most quests are "go there and kill monster", "find artifact and bring it back", "kill that monster", "find that artifact" and so on, so if you're not down with that kind of questing maybe give it a miss.

When I'm done, I'm gonna go back and play Sacred as I've never touched it.

Here's my Seraphim currently, she's looking pretty sick as

Never played Sacred 2, but spent my entire childhood on Sacred 1. A huge game with tons of places to explore, a lot of easter eggs, but most importantly, it's one of the only Diablo-esque game that isn't afraid of showing a colorful world with tons of personality and humor. Diablo and all its clones are always so drab and bloody and run-down and make me feel exhausted after a few hours. Sacred on the other hand was like a themed park - Hey, that island looks cool! Let's see if I can reach it. Oh, hey, there's a fun quest on it! Oh, I got sunglasses out of it! :D
