Diablo II was a great game, and naturally it will be cloned, I don’t quite understand how that is a bad thing. Hack n’ Slash, in my opinion, is the most fun style for an RPG. I sit back, relax and slay the evils (or good) of the world.

I can think about other things and press h whenever i see my health low and hack and slash away. The story isn’t terrible in this game, and not that it’s too terribly important, as long as the spells and everything is fluid.. I usually have no problems.

This is game is fun, and I’d be happier if there were more of these games more often. Makes me want to replay Dungeon Siege..

Actually there’re 2 main stories starting right from lvl 1, probably missed the blue and orange arrows Toastee And the beauty of technology Domstercool is that we keep improving things, and no, ppl don’t care about the guy in the back yelling “hey, I did it 1st”, if mine’s better. And no, it didn’t start at Diablo for that matter, check out the 1st legacy of kain for ex. Ofc it doesn’t have the talent tree but that’s blizz’s great contribution to the world I guess, doesn’t make em God in any way tho

I myself thought the storyline could use some major work.I am at level 29 now and i have been very bored since level 13 or so. I am going to stick it out and see what the end is like. To much backtracking and to much hacking. I play diablo 2 and titan quest to this day and i still love them. I am not sure ill be playing this past endgame. I doubt very much ill run another campaign for second ending. The whole game so far is just kill this and kill that. no story involved in anything.

I know you don’t have to clone it, but seriously it plays just like a Diablo style game. I’m sure even if you ask the developers they will agree.

I don’t see what’s wrong with the 7 score. It still means that it is good, just not getting into the great area. If my review makes it sound like it’s crap, then I guess I should of reworded some of the lines.

I don’t know what definition of ‘fanboy’ you’re using, but isn’t it strange that the majority of other reviewers agree with Dom’s verdict?

Please use more constructive criticism next time

This has to be THE worst and most groundless review i’ve EVER read. And i really DISLIKE fanboy’s doing reviews

- There is no reason for your accusations.
- Diablo was the first game in it’s genre. But that does not mean that Sacred 2 is a “clone”. Or…tbh. The only way to make an ARPG is actually to clone the base aspects. …
- And you actually need to put some time into the game to see it’s aspects. Not just play thru and only being selective about the bad things.

It appears you spell checked the article, but as ^^^ mentioned, there are plenty of errors. Read through the review on paper and you’ll find a myriad of mistakes.

By the way, NPC stands for non-player character, not none player character.

Im guessing there is a fire spell…… like all generic RPG

There’s nothing really special to mention about the spells. Most of them are your bog standard spells you’d expect to see in a game like this. I guess it shows by your comment that the review comes across as if the game does nothing new, and frankly it doesn’t

Or he could just be right about the game, like any number of other reviewers have been…

Could this review be any more generic? Did you just play the demo to get this up? No description of spells, skills etc. I’m guessing Dominic read other previews and played the demo to get this up.
