New addiction, Sacred 2: Fallen Angels

Sacred 2: Fallen Angel is simply a perfect game to play with my wife. We used to play a lot of Baldur’s Gate and Champions of Norrath for PS2. Those were basically a linear dungeon-based hack-n-slash game. Kill-Loot-Shop. A perfect combo for me and my wife to spend countless hours together. I was dying for another game like those for years.

Now Sacred 2 came and it is perfect. A classic hack-n-slash gameplay with fair dose of MMO-like open-ended quest system. More place to travel, more monsters to kill, more things to collect and shop.

One great addition is the “mount” system. Basically you can have a pony steed. You can attack while riding, go upstairs in the building and talk to people. Only no-no is inside of the dungeon, fair enough. Traveling becomes much easier and you can avoid enemies much easier while on the open road. You can even jump over small obstacles.

Then, you get a “unique mount”. A speical beast for your character class, tiger and lizard for me and my wife. It is funny that riding those is, function-wise, not different from a horse yet it makes you feel “unique”. “Life is good” kinda way.

Only problem is that we play way too much…..
