GameZone has put up a preview of Ascaron's action RPG 'Sacred'.Well, if there’s one thing that us RPG gamers have come to get used to, it’s seeing “Diablo style gameplay” in front of every top down, ¾ perspective game that hits shelves ranging from Harbinger to Blade and Sword (yep, I made that comment in the review of both of those). Unfortunately, none of them ever really seem to live up to the addictive gameplay of Diablo, nor the overall fun level, so the impact of making that statement doesn’t really carry as much water today as it once did … you know, kind of like the boy who cried wolf. Rarely, a similar playing game will come out though that seems to capture a lot of the fun qualities referred to by making a comment like “Diablo meets …” or “if you like Diablo then … “, and Ascaron has seemed to have tapped into one with a new title that is in the works called Sacred. |
