SACRED 2: FALLEN ANGEL

  • Publisher: CDV Software Entertainment USA
  • Developer: Ascaron
  • Genre: RPG
  • Release date: US 12-May-2009 / UK 05-Jun-2009

  • Story:
    Quote:
    T-Energy has been flowing through Ancaria since time immemorial. This mysterious power forms the beginning of all life, is the source of all magic and the origin of all thought.

    For a long time it was the angelic Seraphim who watched over the T-Energy and therefore over the fate of the entire world. They passed their knowledge on to the High Elves, so that they could benefit from T-Energy. T-Energy helped the realm of the High Elves to experience an incomparable boost of prosperity, making it the reigning culture in Ancaria.

    A force which contains the enormous power of T-Energy carries great dangers. The
    children of Ancaria were not taught how to deal with this.


    Soon there was a heated dispute among the High Elves as to how and to what purpose the T-Energy was to be used. Every party wanted to use the power. The dispute changed to irresolvable conflict, causing a rift between the High Elves. A terrible Civil War raged among the High Elves, resulting in all participants becoming losers. Their realm collapsed and with it the entire power structure.


    Other peoples surged forward to pressure Ancaria and were ready to seize the power for themselves in order to take the place of the High Elves. Dispute covered the entire realm. Apart from the devastation of war, a further calamity intruded into Ancaria. The T-Energy went out of control!

    The once creative power of the T-Energy now changed into something negative. Creatures and animals mutated beyond recognition, entire regions became un-inhabitable, cities and villages were destroyed.

    The nobility as well as the clerical caste of the High Elves struggled to seize power over the High Elf imperium, so that they alone might control the T-Energy. The land is once more faced with war; a war that is much larger, with more far reaching consequences than all previous wars and battles.

    Two thousand years before Shaddar the cry for heroes arises to avert this war and to regain control over the T-Energy. But who will answer it? Heroes who strive to prevent the world from lapsing into final chaos, or those who deepen it?.

I didn't know this was coming out on 360. This is great news as I was in the middle of playing this when I got a 360 and abandoned my PC. Solid RPG with lots to do...huge world with stunning visuals...hope it doesn't look like crap compared to the PC release.

I own this for the PC (shouldnt have bought it really) but I'll surely download it for the 360, my gf usually enjoys coop rpgs and this would be perfect... Very simple gameplay, not much skill required, good graphics. I'm hoping for a timely release.

1 DVD probably, console version has shit textures and just looks bad compared to PC, so no need for it to be many discs.

Not really. Console version of Sacred2 just looks much worse overall. Foliage on console version is laughable, so are textures and character poly count. Just browse through PC screenshots and then through 360 screenshots and you'll see.

Yanno what the hilarious thing about it all is? Ascaron originally said the 360 version would be the definitive one, the one with the best graphics, since they have the tri-core CPU to work with Laughing

I remember being pissed about it .. but hey, guess they were wrong Very Happy

I'll wait for some reviews before I decide whether to download it. Doesn't look too good. Actually looks like too human, that is not good at all.
