Sacred 2 is indeed awesome, if you like purely loot-centric games. There's really no story to speak of, but killing monsters (which is the majority of the game) is really fun at times. I hate how the camera is fixed at such a crappy angle, but thankfully it's easily corrected with some INI tweaking.
And seconded on being anxious for the release of this. December is a while to wait, but like others have stated, if it ensures there'll be minimal bugs and other issues I'm perfectly capable of waiting. And, also as previously mentioned, there are so many promising RPGs coming out between now and then that the spacing is nearly perfect. By the time of its release you should already be done with the others.
