I love that smiley, that's awesome! I do keep an eye on these forums but I must admit most Sacred 2 stuff goes over my head :O Despite being a beta tester haha. It never grabbed me like the original. But I do miss everyone and randomly think of you all quite often. I so wish we still had SiF. And MSN. Ahhh nostalgia. Yes, god you're right, 2004 Sacred was released so indeed, nearly 20 years we've all known each other. Now I just feel old lol. Thanks for that on a Sunday! ;)

I don't have any 'proper' webspace yet but whenever it's easiest for you/you feel like it/you're in your dungeon I guess zip up my site perhaps and send it over? I'm at a convention this weekend (last day today) so not really around but I'll get on to sorting out the space shortly so it's easier to transfer. I get the fatigue entirely; thankfully avoided cancer so far but had my own "big C" (Cushing's) so I entirely understand how you feel. But you know we all love you here so all your excess energy, no matter how little, must be directed to these forums ;)

I randomly remembered you guys (miss you all) last night and was shocked to see this post. I hope you're doing well Spock. I've been considering converting my blog into an actual site again so I could probably take Pevil's Place back at some point (with you keeping it up as well if you like as I wouldn't be updating the Sacred side of things now)

Popping in with a random question now for you all. How popular is Halloween in your country? I'm in England and it's certainly grown more popular here but when I was a kid (36 now) it wasn't very popular. Maybe due to living in a village and my parents running the village shop so I never did trick or treat, never got dressed up for it or anything. It's really never been big on my radar. Even when we moved to the nearby town when I was 10 we didn't celebrate though of course if anyone knocked they'd get treats, but again, very few would come round. Maybe 3 or 4 groups of younger kids and then usually only if they were staying with their grandparents in one of the roads around us. It's tough to guage even as an adult how popular it is now. You see more decorations in card shops for sale for it but I don't really notice anything else. No clue how many kids trick or treat as we live in a huge block of flats so they can't get to us unless they live here ;) Safety! haha.

BOO! ... sorry Late to the topic but I'm here with my creepy avatar. I was tempted to go with what my brain tumour did to me haha but thought instead I'd be lighter hearted with a picture of one of my favourite shows from when I was a kid. Trapdoor. I own the full set on DVD and it's amazing. Halloween films... I'm rubbish with films but I do love 80s films. Halloween ones have to be super cheesy. Evil Dead, Halloween, Brain Dead... that sort of thing. I don't get scared by films at all though. The only one that ever managed it (and still does) is Arachnophobia. I hate spiders and I can see that film happening so easily! Eight Legged Freaks didn't scare me as it's too over the top (and is meant to be of course). Fun fact - for ages I refused to go near certain places in Sacred because the flat, brown, hairy spiders in it were too realistic looking. Only game to ever successfully creep me out with a spider. Pokemon Ruby managed it with the ghost tower music too though. Always had to switch the sound off when I went to that area.

The halloween stuff freaked me out when I clicked on it today! haha. I love it though! Just like you gogo, super over the top but super awesome.

@jonnyx Jonny! I didn't realise you'd taken DA offline, I looked back through it just 6 months ago but it was woefully dead So glad to see you, I'm a lurker here when I remember. Hope you're keeping well. I miss DA and the sif so much, those truly were the glory days.

Same as Tim, only ever done the story. I tried it long after Sacred online was down and out so never even considered MP!

Oooh! I loved the first 1, haven't tried 2. Might have to keep an eye on this.

It's like my sixth sense ;)

Goodness Spock :O I'm so glad to hear you're doing ok, I hope you're continuing to recover well. I've had my own health scares over the last few years, perhaps that's what brought me back here? Those things you miss in your worst moments are what are worth it and you guys definitely count as worth it

Ooooh! I haven't played around much with the horses in Sacred 2 as even I struggled to get them to be very useful, though class mounts were a different matter. I'm still determined to make them work. I'll definitely give this mod a go at some point! Now I just need to get it to patch up properly....

Hey Tim! Good to see you're still around

I may have found and rewatched that video this morning ;) I'm sure I'll find more weird and wonderful things to trample (though I do remember a patch making it tougher to do) Hi Bel! Looks great, loving that newer, more polished UI, I'm assuming that's all part of reborn? I think I'll definitely be downloading that later. I rarely did much with anything other than WE or BM so really bug fixes for set items are not something I'll notice, despite having all the item details on my site I was a complete novice with most of them. It feels good to be back Forgotten so much though, time to swot up on the fantastic wiki.

I'm just messing around in 'vanilla' for a bit. Can I import a char into Reborn? Meet Lacrimosa. Took me about 5 mins to get back on a horse ;) Just doesn't feel right on foot. I still have old save games from LAN with set items and runes galore but for now I'll enjoy the feeling of being utterly helpless! I forgot undead don't die unless you use a potion of undeath or smack them for a stupid amount of damage.
