Especially when you are undressed.

But, I was informed that this is where the "Great Parade of Love" would begin and I was curious. I heard there would be some debauchery there.

If one looks closely, this elf moppet has missing front upper incisors.

Sure, but next thing, you'll "be demanding a three moon month".

Verily and forsooth thou shalt find it in Griffinborough, good Sir. Thou must search in the military encampment in the north and east of the city which lies near the bridge to the palace. Lookest toward yon home of ye olde merchant from the western edge of the camp and see it thou shall, indeed.

"The sign before me doth indeed foretell 'DANGER', yet I hath found no thing so dire as to warrant such a warning."

Notice the gentleman in the rear? Is this another side effect of those born in the presence of T Energy?

Ah yes, however, I have my zoom curve settings set such that I can zoom in and see a head-on close up view using my mouse wheel. This became available after my upgrade to Sacred2 Gold. Having both the sign printed for a close up view and hover-over text as well would be ideal, IMHO. Understandably, it would be a particularly daunting task to accomplish on every such item.

This has been documented as an Easter Egg under the Frank Zappa category... Do you recall about where this sign happens to be located? The current picture features the evil yellow stuff - but no sign warning passers by. It'd make a nice upgrade..

 

 

Indeed, the sign and patch of yellow snow are located off the pathway that extends southwest of A Snow-covered Village. The "spot" is just off the southeast side of the trail. There is a sign, yet one must hover the mouse cursor over it to read the text. It would be best if the sign itself was legible.

 

[Community Patch 150 Issue]

I received the update last night and later I scanned my PC for Spyware. Kraddare (Variant) was summarily detected and two files were then deleted by my Anti-spyware program. One of them the Sacred2 Updater. It's most likely that my Anti-Spyware's detections are too agressive, as Kraddare is known to download PUPs and the Sacred2 updater works rather similarly. Of course restoring the deleted files or reinstalling the Sacred2 Gold would rectify the problem. Also, changing the settings in my Anti-spyware program to allow the Sacred2 update client would prevent a future recurrance. Has anyone experienced similar issues?

 

Additionally, I didn't receieve a text file indicating the extent of the changes in the patch, fixes, etc. Is there a list somewhere or would someone who is well informed in this regard supply such? It's noteworthy, as well, that the start screen graphic still indicates CM Patch 140 after the update is installed.

"Watch out where the huskies go and..."

Ah, it's a quiet night in Sloeford; the local denizens are gossiping, the yet energetic moppets are full of queries, and the music in the background seems to plead of lyrics...

No one really knows how much time we'll spend here
No one ever knows, my friend, all the words to our songs
No one can yet know how our stories will end
No one may assign the number of days we have left
No one really knows
I don't wish to know
Would you want to know?
...better not to know...
...'till the end...

Here are two scarecrows in an empty brigand camp; they were left, presumably, to ward off interlopers during the absence of the band of rogues.

 

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Here's an example where one can see four scarecrows in this panoramic view.

 

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

About how many scarecrows have been placed in the game?

 

 

gogo

The number seems staggering. For instance I have a screen shot of two scarecrows in the same area and another like the image below where the scarecrow is posted outside a cemetary, either to keep lookie-loos out or the spirits of the deceased in.

 

I think you are done - there are only 3 models of scarecrows in the graphics05.zip/models/objects/misc/humans.

You want to go searching for scarecrows all over the world? Or scarecrow shaped objects? Or the witches voodoo dolls?

 

Yes, voodoo dolls are something to capture and any others. Here is a button-eyed doll that I located in a field in a cemetary below.

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Are there many different scarecrow models? I was thinking that would could have been kind of eggish would have been if there had been some meaning or pattern in them, or a grand design played out along all of them.

Good note on the little veggies, Flix...I'd also wondered when looking at the game, just how many different varieties of flora there actually were in Sacred 2

So far I have only encountered the three scarecrow models; I yet continue my search.

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Where is this?

 

It's in Garghadok's Destiny Digging Site.

Holy Cow! If the fields of Ancaria were stocked with bovines this size, the people would eat well, indeed!

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Here's a rather simple scarecrow stationed in an Ancarian pumpkin field:

 

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Here's an average looking scarecrow in a field. The different scarecrows were, I suppose, just another small detail which was included to add more diversity and interest to this epic game. I'm relatively certain that the fact the Jack-O-lantern's face (in my previous post) was not illuminated at night was merely an oversight. It would have looked wicked lit in the darkness of an Ancarian night.

 

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Hm, this scarecrow reminds me of someone, but who?

 

 

This is the first in my "Scarcrows of Ancaria Series".

 

 

 

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Almost dinner time... I'll pass, regardless.

 

[Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots]

Ah, so that's where that soccer ball I kicked out of the coliseum during the championship match back at the academy landed...
