I love these Guantlet/Baulder's Gate/D&D Heroes games, so when i discovered Sacred, I knew i had to try it out.

I like this game a lot and I wanna like it more, but there are a few things I wish were a lot better. So, this is a rant about a game that I actually like.

1. Who's who online? How do you know who toon is who's, what their XB handle is and what their toons name is? How do you match voice your hearing with the toon on the screen?

2. Targeting is bad. Is there a way to toggle your target enemy? If so someone please let me know! This is horrible!

3. Not intuitive. Is there a tutorial? Should I spend more time with the instruction manual? Is it me, or is there a bit of a learning curve here?

4. What's the difference between a ruin and a relec? How do you get them? What do you do with them? and What are they for?

5. If i'm a high elf and want to train in shooting guns, swords, ect, is there a way to do that?

Things I like:

1. The bright, pretty colorful world, (landscape, water, froggys, bunnies hopping, day and night times simulated)

2. Lots of enemies to fight.

3. Multiplayer co-op.

4. I love magic spells! (Great effects!)

5. And most importantly, there is fun to be had here!



Thanks for answering my questions.

1) Not alot, but if your interested you could always ask them which character they are.

2) Nope. One of the worst parts of the game that and the fact that as soon as you use an ability you are rooted to the spot

3) My best advice is check out the sacred wiki : www.sacredwiki.org

4) Ruins are items that you either consume or slot into items to up the level of your abilities. Be carefull upping an ability also ups how long before use again. The one ability you should be pumping ruins into as much as possible is the buff grand invigoration. Relics are items that give resistance against elemental attacks. You can use up to 6 relics at one time.

5)You could but Id suggest against it. Magic coup with Target focus mod lets you get by with out having to take weapon lores. So you can use any sword, gun or staff you find. By the way if you use staffs you can really boost there damage.
