Well, bot Sacred and <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> have something in common : Bothz had DSA-based predecessors which didn't make it. For Larian it was LMK, and for Sacred it was Armalion, both based on the German RPG system DSA (Das Schwarze Auge, also known as The Dark Eye or the Realms of Arcania).
The developing company for Armalion, Ikarion was its name, went bancrupt a relatively short time before finishing the project. Ascaron bought ? it's remnants and made Sacred out of it.
The noXQs Order is the only community out there which still keeps the memory of Armalion.
