You'll probably find yourself running or riding past hordes of monsters in the hopes of saving your potions for the later, quest-related battles. By doing neither, Sacred just becomes unnecessarily difficult, and not in a fun way. It would have been nice if the merchants had infinite potions or eased off of the regenerating monsters. You'll go a little ways, find you're running out of healing potions before you ever reach the goal, return to the town to grab the small available stock of those potions, and then try yet again to reach your goal, only to find almost as many monsters in your way as before.
The monsters also regenerate constantly, which can be a huge issue when you can't stock up on enough potions to reach an area far away. Most of the game-world takes place above ground, so if you were hoping for huge, complex, multi-level dungeons, you're going to be in for a real disappointment. Fortunately, these bugs seem to only come about in the randomly generated quests, not the main goals, so you shouldn't come across any game-stopping bugs this way. Bugs can make it impossible to finish certain quests, even after you've completed the actual goal. Some of the quests have time limits, usually of a day. The quests vary and include delivery scenarios, rescuing a person or group of people and eliminating an enemy or group of enemies. Most are small and within a short distance from the quest giver. As you wander around, you'll come across dozens of randomly generated quests. Sacred's game-world is huge, and most of it is available to the player from the beginning. After that, the quests seem to be the same regardless of which race you choose. The gladiator starts in the arena, while the dark elf begins play near a cave. The game starts in a different place depending on the character type you selected.
You can't choose the gender of your character, so if you wish to play the dark elf, for example, your character is always male. You can select one of six character types in Sacred, including the gladiator, seraphim, and dark elf. Sometimes being a hero feels like a full-time job. This time the world is Ancaria and the game is Sacred, from Germany-based Ascaron Entertainment. It's that time of year again, a time when the forces of evil are converging to destroy the world, and it's your job to stop it. Graphics feature 3D-rendered characters against hand-painted backgrounds, with three zoom levels. Each town in the game world is designed to have its own personality and player missions characters who manage to accomplish all of a town's missions become true heroes there. The world of Sacred is designed to encourage open exploration and freestyle progression, as the majority of the game's areas are accessible to player characters from the start. Playable characters include the burly gladiator, the agile wood elf, and the sneaky dark elf, as well as the angelic seraphim, the versatile battlemage, and the vampire, who appears as a noble knight during the day but commands the powers of her undead legacy at night. These heroes can learn to ride horses and string together power combination attacks, and some may behave very differently as the game world cycles from day to night. Players choose from six distinct character types, all with significantly different abilities as well as their own storylines and starting locations. A combat-driven adventure in the basic style of the popular Diablo games, Sacred offers a number of enhancements and unusual features that are new to the realm of action-RPGs. Hack-and-slashers tread carefully through the lands of Sacred, where the world itself is threatened by a veritable host of demons, set loose by a powerful but misguided sorcerer.
