Even the stilted voiceovers and off-kilter humor have a distinct charm.

There really is a lot to like about Sacred 2, but only as long as you are willing to put up with the constant need to micromanage your journey with a high tolerance for FedEx-type questing.

What it misses is the nuance, the charm and the challenge that marked both the original games and the best of the Diablo clones (such as Titan Quest). In short, Sacred 2 is a game that's easy to miss without really missing out.

If you're a Diablo clone fan, this is a must play. A bit different than the first, but with the same wide-open game world to fool around in. As of May 2009, almost all bugs have been eliminated, so if you were frustrated by earlier play, or were warned off by reviewers, give it another try.… Expand

Well here's my thoughts I like the combat system and all that seems cool but seriously the person who decided on the camera angles is stupid. I mean REALLY the camera is so bad because me personally the camera angle makes me feel dizzy and sick and it RUINS the game. Yes I said it Ruins the game they need to make the camera like RF online or World of Warcraft style this is the biggest piece of crap I have bought the entire year all because of one Flaw that hinders your ability to enjoy the game and in this case its the Camera I will never buy another product from this company because I can expect only what I see and thats a Piece of crap in a box with pretty graphics. Good Game and Epic Fail.… Expand

It crashes when you kill a monster. It crashes when you enter a dungeon. It crashes when you finally find that last piece of armor to complete your set. It crashes when you enter dialogue with an NPC. It crashes before it even loads the splash screen. Sacred 2 could have been a monumental game, but the dorks at Ascaron who released this bug-ridden excuse for entertainment should be flooged. When it does run for an extended period of time, it's great fun, but those moments are few and far between. It doesn't help that the save system is archaic; you're forced to exit to the main menu when you save, and the game doesn't even bother to auto-save AT ALL. That means that unless you're saving and exiting every few minutes, the chances of losing all the progress you've made are pretty good. I guess we can all be consoled by the fact that Diablo 3 will run properly.… Expand
