musselsuk's Review of Sacred for PC

Overall Rating
- Value for money
- Graphics
- Addiction Level
- Multi-playerYes
Classes were fun & appeared very different.
Always want to know what's around the next corner.
Smooth as honey (on a decent PC anyway).
Excellent 2D graphics.
Horse vehicles.
Grouping.
Multiplayer (haven't experienced yet).
Bad Points
Main problem was getting out of small / busy buildings. No big deal.
The RPG element wasn't quite as clear as I'd like - but as it was the demo - I lacked adequate documentation.
Wish the water looked deeper as it appears a bit silly that you cannot wade across small streamlets.
General Comments
Note: I have only played the demo version of Sacred. But that is quite substantial.
Graphics: 2D but don't let that put you off. There is an amazing amount of detail in many different environments. It works well.
Sound: no problems, ambient sound usually correct for the action at that moment in time. Doesn't grate.
Gameplay: this is of the old school. You just want to keep playing. There is a set of goals taking you through the main game, but there are literally hundreds of sub-quests you can choose to take on.
I have just got Unreal Tournament 2004, and this is the perfect relaxation after a hefty session of frag-festing.
Longevity: with the different classes I can see that you would definately want to replay this. I believe the game will play differently for different char classes.
On average, people found this review very helpful
