So Cyrax is in Sacred 3 ?

Huh, Safiri does look like MK Cyrax in human form.

Yep, just a bit.

Was he pumping iron for the Street Fighter 4 role and got rejected? o.O

How'd they get off the bridge?  They won the battle but got stuck in an area of the map from which they could not move.  They probably had to restart from their last save game.

Conspiracy theorists reckon they were never really on the bridge.

Yep, just like the moon landing, totally fake.

5 bucks that bridge doesn't even exist.

At least it's lost the dodgy music from 2.

And a new one:

So we were finally shown a couple of bits of gameplay... though sadly the trailer has more video compilation effects than actual playtime. What did we learn? The most obvious fact is that all battles we were shown take place in narrow corridors the whole width of which can be seen on the screen with camera zoomed out. That does not give much room for maneuvers and indeed, even the Ranger shoots the foes from relatively close distance. But at least now we know that there are some combat arts, though we were shown no more than a couple of melee ones per character. Oh, and the fact that the Malakhim has fancy demonic wings!

 

The best thing about the gameplay is that it looks very dynamic. On the other hand, it can be both "pro" and "con" as tactical combat is never extremely fast. If some game forces a very fast pace, it usually boils down to the speed of reaction and clicking rather than to thinking and battle tactics. I hope that S3 would escape this fate and combine good pace with some interesting combat ideas that can be used in various creative ways.

Looks interesting...so does the preorder now part...

 

PS. Console versions are $49.99 on amazon.

I don't want to be the Buh-Man here put everything I had read and seen so far about Sacred III had been a big disappointment for me and this last "gameplay" trailer is no difference.

Silver_Fox already said it quite well and those are points I only can underline! For me, that what I have seen has nothing to do with our beloved Sacred (I and II). For me it feels like and looks like a Sacred Citadell in "3D". Very comic style - although this per se doesn't need to be a bad thing, very coop orientated - for me as SP player only a absolute no-go!, and finally not very promising, especially the "effects".

As a side note, the grafical style, in some way, it reminded me quite a bit on when the first screenshots had been shown to the public of DIII and the discussion which thereafter followed.

[SX255]

Yeah, take out the text and interface out of the Sacred 3 and Diablo 3 trailers, and its almost impossible to tell them apart. But then again, Sacred has always been a homage to the Diablo series.

Too bad that Sacred 3 doesn't bring anything to top Diablo 3 in visuals.

[Nervusbreakdown]

Sorry I didn't see this. I posted trailers and missed this thread. Sorry gogo.

But as far as the game goes we should at least keep a open mind and give this a chance at least.
