[@burningsheep4473]

I enjoyed the second game more. Not least because of the visuals and I also ended up enjoying world exploration more. The amount of towns and how unique they are is quite impressive. Btw, did you use any of the unofficial patches for Sacred 2? I for example used the Purist fixpack, but replaced the PhysX file with the original version to get back the environmental clutter. There is something about those leaves blowing on the wind that I cannot do without. Unfortunately it doesn't run all that well once the PhysX clutter is back in.

[@jclosed2516]

@@rattlehead999Same here. The moment they appeared on GOG I bought them. I had lots of fun with those. Hmmm... Maybe time to replay? Anyway - For me the second game is the best. I never tried the side-scroller, because it's just not my type of game, and Sacred 3... Well... At least I tried, but apart from the name, it has nothing to do with the previous games. I had more fun playing five minutes of Torchlight ( 1 and 2) than my whole time (admittedly not that very long) with Sacred 3...

The first one brings back my childhood. The rest is trash. And I take this quite seriously, none of them compares to the first Sacred, you could say that 2 only gave the players less, and 3 not even that much. Or I could also say: Everything was better in the old days.

[@CaptainPerfect]

Sacred was my childhood, loved the both games. If anyone ends up playing 2, install the Enhanced edition mod. The mod contains hundreds of bugfixes, as well as numerous gameplay enhancements such as redesigned balance, quality-of-life improvements, and cosmetic changes. Enemies are more challenging, quests are more rewarding, and items are more varied, unique, and useful. (quote Copied from the nexus page.) There was a custom button binding mod for sacred 1, that was essential but I cant find it anymore. I remember playing sacred 2 with my brother a lot. I spent much of my free time on the Dark Matters sacred forums. I still remember the most active member there, GoGoBlender. I miss that guy.

I found out that the Sacred reborn mod has the ability to change keybinding, I hate the the default combat art skills are binded to 6-9 or something. The mod does a bunch of stuff, like rebalances the game.

[@achinism]

The OG sacred is what I refer to as having frameworks of a true aRPG. It had a true open world that's also vast and versatile with excellent area transition that even many modern tittles fails to recreate, a rune based skill system that does away with stamina or mana altogether, a broad set of bestiary and plethora of loots. But what surprises me to this day is Sacred's generous allowance for different builds and the sheer number of character customization you can come up with is just dizzying! Want a battlemage that forgoes the magic part? You can! Fancy a dual-wielding dark-elf or bomber-diving Daemon? Go ahead! I knew some guy back in the days who played a bunny-hopping gladiator and that wreaked havoc! Sure, it had a weak storyline, unnecessarily lengthy MQ and lame side-quests but at the end of the day all I want from an RPG is the freedom and flexibility to create and play my character anyway I see fit - Sacred does that with room to spare and there aren't many games I can claim that about!

[@MetaL556]

Sacred's exploration felt fantastic. I remember to this day finding a hidden path along a river that led close to the western edge of the map, and I ended up finding an entire dragon to battle(Lorinor, to be precise). It felt special, and encouraged you to scour the land instead of going from quest to quest like many current ARPGs.

[@skeletonwar4445]

Sacred 1 my beloved

[@armelior4610]

Sacred 2's expansion has one of the most original biome I've ever seen in a high fantasy RPG with the demon-influenced region that gradually changes from green forest to a fleshy nightmare, enemies becoming weirder and weirder and great Halloween theme-inspired music

[@garrick3727]

Sacred 2 is one of my favorite games of all time. Unlike many ARPGs, such as Diablo 2, Path of Exiles and Grim Dawn, Sacred 2 is a lot more of an RPG. The open world feels more like an actual world, and there are a lot of towns and villages where there is no combat. The enemy variety is great for a game of its time. There are a lot of large enemies later on, including many different dragons. There are about 650 quests and unlike the usual ARPG these are more like RPG quests, including more than one solution and multiple quest stages. Admittedly the main quest is very bland, just being an excuse to send you around the map, and a lot of the quests are goofy. Like Elder Scrolls Oblivion, just standing in town listening to the NPCs talk to each other is valid gameplay. Also, it's a great co-op game. Sacred 1 is also a good game. I really like the classes, particularly the dwarf, vampire and demon. There is no level scaling except that which is pre-determined by your difficulty setting. My tip for both Sacred 1 and 2 is never play on the bronze difficulty, always begin on silver. It makes the beginning very hard, but you don't hit the "no challenge" point very early on like you do on bronze. What I like about Sacred 1 is you can wander into higher level areas and it's as entertaining as it is deadly. The game has better atmosphere than Sacred 2 because it's less tongue-in-cheek and there are more sinister locations. It still prefer 2, but not by much. Both games hold up really well.

[@Pmurder3]

It's mindbogling to me how still to this day nobody tried to do a similiar arpg as Sacred. In the early 2000's we see games like Divine Divinity and Sacred which both followed the huge impact of Diablo, but each felt a lot different and a lot more rpg, than diablo, but none of those led to anywhere. Larian never really followed DD and Sacred as a franchise got trashed on the way. It's just sad to see nobody really bothers to try to innovate the arpg genre or making them closer to being an rpg.

[@AlexGorskov]

Yes, that's weird. Arpgs are boring, imho.​@@Pmurder3

@@robinnewhouse1563 I think he's referring to Disney and other early animations; it's not pixel art, but it is 2D one can make the limited argument that they share some similarities in the creative process with early digital art. The more you have to do "by hand", the more you will add small details and minor design choices, as it simply doesn't add that much more to the overall workload. In 3D modelling, smaller details are often computationally expensive to render and require more work to not look janky.

[@redelfshotthefood8213]

Sacred 1: areas have min and max levels. I wrote a guide for level caps back in the day on the official forum maintained by Ascaron, the studio that made the game. As a hardcore player, I found out that you should follow the main quest line to keep the challenge level manageable. Just south of the town where you first meet the Prince the minimum level jumps from 12 to 18. Scattered level 12 opponents suddenly become better equipped coherent groups. And... You get multiple boss groups with crossbow minions. In other words, death.

[@krisd3669]

About the level scaling. If i remember correctly, Sacred 2 had level scaling that kept leveling enemies untill you died. So if you would hardly die, the enemies would outlevel you, so you would always have some challenge.

[@tobiaslueck94]

sacred 1 does not offer a variety of horse spells, it just offers the one you mentioned. also the stash is not shared between your characters, so it is in fact not easy to trade your items over to your other character

[@Szederp]

This has always been a mystery to me....and I'm too lazy to look for details and I am not a businessman but I keep seeing the usually pattern: studio creates a fantastic game >> game sells great >> studio goes bankrupt or gets bought out by a larger firm. Bullfrog, Westwood, Blizzard North, Black Isle Studios......all created games that set new standards and now they are nowhere to be found. And the list goes on and on.

[@SinaelDOverom]

Corporate control ruins everything, because chairmen and CEOs don't understand and don't care about games.

[@ARIXANDRE]

What a treat. I love these double A, janky RPGs

[@nanoUSBx]

About the level scaling in Sacred: Every area has a minimum and maximum level for mobs (some exceptions aside), plus the longer you are in combat without dying, the higher your survival bonus will be, which further increases the enemy levels a little (but within the area's min/max). Combos aren't relevant at all, at any level. There's only a tiny amount of cases where a level 1 combo of certain skills can be useful, or if you are feeding a fresh toon with tons of runes and intend to powerlevel with yellow potion spam. And perhaps for a high/max level Mage that wants to use all the defensive buffs without using 4 skill slots for just those. The general issue with combos is that their cooldowns scaled far too high via amount and levels of the slotted skills, and the only thing that would decrease combo cooldown is player level. Mounted combat stinks. Leftclick attacking gets slowed down, lots of skills become unavailable, can't enter dungeons. The health buff and resistances via bridle become useless the higher you go because very quickly it's all about lifeleech + cooldown reduction + damage output to keep you alive. Anyway, nice nostalgia trip. Thanks for that. Sacred Underworld is the goat!

[@KiTiN97]

Try battlemage in sacred 1. His spells are very fun in combat, especialy ice shards. The combat with him is sooo much better than most of the classes. And darkelf with trap spells like poison mist is also a very fun way to do the combat. One important thing u missed out to mention is the item stats (sacred 1). Later in the game the items has a LOT of truly different kinds of stats. Not like modern arpgs "x% fire dmg, x% ice dmg resistance" ect... but there are a few rly creative things. Like...chance to kill enemy on sight...or + x LEVELS IN SPELLS...or when u take dmg, u loose gold instead of HP xD. And with the smith enchantment system the item/stat thing in this game feels rly deep. There is an item set (green items) if u collect them, you create a burning fire trail as u walk.

[@demonsmanifesto]

Idk if many people know this & it's sad it was never mentioned in this video, but Sacred 2 had an amazing Nvidia PhysX implementation that was, to my knowledge, never topped by any game ever. It has simulated wind currents + dynamic tree leaves & foliage that is affected by it. It was SO freaking impressive when I turned it on, I could never play without it again. Just walking through the starting Seraphim area, the wind creating tornados of loose leaves, rustling the grass, oof. Also, player abilities created actual simulated wind currents themselves. One of those is Seraphim's Sacred Pillar ability. Spawning it makes all the debris just rush towards that pillar and swirl around it. Made me stare in awe back in 2009. Makes me want to re-install again just to see it. If you ever plan on playing/re-playing this game, do yourself a favour and turn on PhysX, provided you have an Nvidia GPU with PhysX driver installed.

[@dantauche7917]

Sacred was SO fun, I loved it as a kid! Didnt get into 2 as much, and never played 3 ( thank god).

[@eivisch]

Ability to rotate camera definitely isn’t just because you have to make full 3d environments sure its a nice bonus but designing levels/areas is much easier than you know what player will see so placing secrets, interactive objects, enemies so on is much easier which can result better experience for player

[@dontstopbelieving1]

Game developer here (no not a good one) my two cents about camera rotating as a feature is pretty much what you said. If you aren’t an artist, sometimes perspective can be pretty difficult. Once everything looks good from one perspective, sometimes it can be a pretty big timesaver to lock in that angle. But I think the bigger thing (at least in games I’ve made) is how to handle when the camera is in/ behind something. Do you make the object invisible until you move the camera or an object moves? What if it’s an enemy? Do you handle that the same as a wall? Would all of your environments be fit for rotating a camera or will it cause issues in some areas? There are just a lot of variables added with any possible feature you can add, so my guess is when a teams workload is already high, figuring out all of those variables just isn’t priority

I always felt super bad when I failed a quest because I had taken too long for something or someone died... or both. The worst was when I visited silver Creek after some while; I don't know whether this is still possible in the "Sacred Gold" version, but in the original, Adelina will ask you to let her join your party. You can give her a decent bow and she will fight with you, but she may also die, and not be revived like some main quest related companions... I wanted to explore whether there was another hidden quest when you excort her to certain regions (Mascarell or the Elves land or something...), but I didn't manage to get to that step in Gold somehow. Meybe they removed it; they also changed some quests and added two locations on the map (the dwarf starting region and a big house in the DeMordrey lands were added).

Sacred 1 and 2, my favorite rpg games of my childhood! Ahh the nostalgia.

[@00HoODBoy]

sacred 1 was my introduction to videogames, always palyed it at a friends house cos our pc wasnt capable. first 2 are pretty good still

[@sathic609]

I really enjoyed these games. I spent a lot of hours playing Sacred 2 as an Inquisitor and Shadow Warrior.

Happy to see someone mentioning this game again and sad still that part 3 has to exist.

ghad I remember wanting to play this when I was in 3rd grade (2004), only to find out that the one in the internet cafe I frequented was glitchy and often crashes

Before ever Preston told us about Settlement, Aria already told us about wheel.

Sacred 1+2 are so underrated games. I think they are fantastic

[@kroman6083]

Unrelated to your Sacred video, have you ever considered reviewing Ultima 9? It looks a lot like something you'd play in your hidden gems or trash videos. I can't speak to it's gameplay (yet), but it certainly has a pleasant aesthetic.

bro you gotta try deepshadows games, some unknown russian developer that literally makes singleplayer open world RPGS better than bethesdas. Helicopters, airplanes, jetskiis, quads, tractors, mafia, cia, indians, spiders, rocket launchers, cars with trunk space so you can pick up all the rifles off dead enemies. The first game is called Xenus 1 boiling point, the second game is Xenus 2: white gold (its a game about cocaine), and their third largest game is called precursors which can ACTUALLY fly a spaceship to different planets. Literally better than starfield

Sacred 2 on PCs little we are deleting your game files joke killed me.

The Dwarf in Sacred 1 is one of the most fun CRPG classes, one man tower defense lol

[@giacomobergonzi4906]

I consumed the original Sacred, I wonder if it's worth to check out sacred 2 and 3

[@Mrmambo83]

could we get some sacred lore video? I've played 1 and 2 recently and really i don't know what it was all about

[@UserNotFound00101]

Would love an outcast a new beginning review 🎉

[@light819]

I remember that one of my favorite bands made a song for one of the sacred games. That is the extent of my knowledge

[@notyoursavior78]

So I got Sacred 2 because it was 4 dollars. I installed the community patch but that's all I did and I wasn't having a bad time but this game doesn't explain anything. Or maybe it was my fault I didn't go to the town, but I found some amulets and I actually remember this pirate stuff. Man that camera sucks in the cave. I am just blindly clicking at rats, ugh. It still looks and sounds good all things considered but I picked the Seraphim because I remember playing that before and other than some hammy acting earlier on it wasn't as funny as I remembered. Granted I only played it for 45 minutes. Again It wasn't an awful time but maybe I should have tried a more interesting character. I do remember thinking this game was ok on the PS3 haha I was a lot younger then too. Now I'm just an angrier man. Anyhow enough of my ramblings. I'll try it again another time.

man, i really wished they would make a Sacred 3
