Sacred 3

I could never finish 2, it was alright, but it lacked any hook to keep me playing ...

I absolutely loved the first Sacred. It was fun as hell and weird in its own way. The second one didn't have the same creativity and bored me over a period of time - never finished it. I have this one on my radar but I'm not sure I can really stomach this kind of isometric loot fest any more. D3 kinda killed my love for the genre.

I loved both 1 and 2 in multiplayer. Awesome games.

I loved Sacred, but i need a good reason to play this over diablo3:ROS. The trailer looked ok, but the models seemed rather bland. Also, only for consoles?

The only thing that I just could not get past was the respawn. No matter where you went, you always had mobs around you to the point that it felt like a job just to get from point A to B. I got to the point where I just ran around with a boatload of mobs chasing me everywhere. Other than that, it really was well done.

Scaling of zones in 2 killed it for me.

I really want to like this game as I loved the original Sacred but what I've been reading on the net doesn't sound too promising. Thinking of downloading it from IPT before buying it. Anyone play it yet?

Apparently it's shit. Totalbiscuit shat all over it and I usually agree with his reviews. Not made by original developer, console style controls, no loot (!!!) It's arena hack and slash with almost no connection to the past games
gameplay starts at 10:40

Siiigh, that really is so fuckin' disappointing.

Yeah, I loved Sacred 2 and played it a few times over the years (never finished it).
