i hear sacred is extremely bugged. nothing that will prevent you from progressing (unless you save) but its pretty annoying. most bugs are with horse/teleport, and multiplayer coop. the new patch apparently doesn't help much

But who does not save when playing a game.

*Extremely* is a bit too hard, maybe, but there is still quite an amount of bugs, yes.

I have played for many hours on SP and can assure you I have not encountered any bugs which interfere with gameplay.

what i meant was it will screw up your game if you saved while a bug was in effect.

don't misunderstand, i don't think the game is bad, but don't overlook the fact that they may have ignored bugs to rush the game to market.

I also have been playing Sacred single-player, and the only bugs I've found are quests that don't initialize properly (the quest icons on the maps don't appear). Other than that, it's been good fun, but I can't wait for Beyond Divinity!

Regards,
Michael

well u haven't played deep enough. There are bugs on the subquests.. some of the random bugs u get can't be solved, because of the invalid map pointers, unless u are lucky to bump into the quest items u likely u have it unsolved..

anyway i think it's a nice game with some new things thrown in.. like horse riding and i like particulary the exchange policy of runes that are not ur class or u don't need.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

also u can socket items like rings/amulets or runes to ur equipments..

also not forgetting unlimited levels <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Yes. There is an occasional bug with a side quest, but nothing major in my opinion. Naturally I'd like to see them fixed, but the effect on my gameplay has been minimal to none.

I have bought the game this week and I have played all weekend. After installing the game in my pc, I downloaded the latest patch. Up till now there was no problem at all with bugs. I am testing the game with the minimum system requirements and it works fine. It is true that in some things it reminded me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> and in some other Diablo 2. But there are some things that really impressed me.

- The manual was translated in Greek. I found that it was very thoughtful for the gamers.
- Horse riding. There were games in the past that I gave up just because I had to run and run and run and never get somewhere. I found horse riding fun and practical. I also liked the sound that they used for horse riding. Very natural.
- The world map and the quests. Though mini map was not good at all, the world map was IMHO very handy. And I liked that they mark the places you have to go in order to cemplete a quest. RPGS are usually huge games. It is a pain in you know where when you have to look all over a huge map just to find the right small spot you have to go for a quest completion.
- Collect all choice. I liked that too. With one click collect all the goodies <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
- Graphics. I liked them. The waters and the fog looked very nice.
- Price. I bought with Sacred one more rpg. Prince of Qin. Sacred was very cheap. POQ very expensive and sucked. I sure will not play that game. Sacred was on half a price and it is way better.

Well all the above are my personal opinion but I think that in general for a first try of a company is a very good job. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

another remark on this great game is that runs very smoothly on my PC which is an older Dual PIII 633 Mhz with a Geforce 2 Ultra 64 MB. I'm really impressed with the graphics and gameplay. The quests however are quite straightforward and there is a lot of hack'nslash... In the end however : very good game and thumbs up from my point of view. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
