Interesting thread, lot's of great answers here which have helped me. I just recieved <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> today in the post. I understand it's a bit buggy at the moment so I'm going to wait awhile before installing. I'm busy playing Sacred at the moment, yeah I know that's buggy as well, but I'm still enjoying playing the game, and to be honest most of the bugs havn't affected me as I only play SP. I absolutely loved <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> but now realise I will have to play BD as a completely new game and not expect it to be DD2. Although the sooner they make DD2 the better. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
So you're doing as I am--setting aside <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> for a bit, and playing Sacred until the bug and balance issues are resolved? GMTA. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> I did play through Act I of <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> and have to say that Sacred doesn't come near it in sophistication or complexity as a game. Visually, hell, Sacred is superb. And its interface is better. Other than that, there's no comparison. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> has so much more to offer, in my opinion.
