Sacred Underworld - Screenshot Game

[alfchaval 117]

I'm going to propose a game (I stole the idea from an old Spanish Sacred forum).
One person takes a screenshot and the other users have to find out where the screenshot was taken.
The person who finds out can then upload their own screenshot to continue the game or give up their right to anyone else.

Some rules:
- No guesses, you need proof that you know the place, either a picture or a detailed description of how to get there.
- Only zoomed out captures, we need to see what is around your character.
- Any character should be able to reach that place without cheats or jump/flying.

I'll start, where is my character?

Even though I knew he had to be somewhere in the center of the screen it took me a bit to find him...
So much for my ability to participate in this game

Good luck finding someone who has both the necessary game knowledge and interest in playing this game.

Then this is just for you, SLD, can you see me?

It took me a while to find it Alfchaval, but jumping on to the left cliff before entering Bravewall is how you get to this funky place.

Here you go, it's really easy, you can't expect hard ones from me, I don't know any secret places. If it's too easy, I'll try to conjure up something more difficult next time!

Jumping? One of the rules is that character should be able to reach the spot without jumping. You can reach that spot walking to right from the ruined mansion in Braverock.

Yeah, the wall of Braverock Plateau is quite recognizable. You didn't move to far for the next spot xD

[Sethi22 142]

Oh I took a detour then. I got there jumping and forgot about the rules. But why not? Why not jumping too? And flying? Who said that? Gimme the next one! (Yeah I'm ultra lazy, I'll go further next time!)

[alfchaval 117]

Since you found it pretty fast, I'm going with another that I think should be harder, because I can't easily recognize all the rock circles.

The idea is that if someone wants to explore the map in search of the location, they can do so, regardless of the character they play.

[Sethi22 142]

ok, no jumping. This might take a while, though, mr. Tentacle Gladi! (And they call me a cheater because I save-load quests for runes... Bahh!!!!)

I mean, you can jump to find the where a screenshot was taken, what you can't do is take a screenshot for others to find if you had to jump to go there.

Dagger Stare + Tentacles was one of the things I tried to farm low level niobium items in the dryad forest, the level 1 will-o-wisp die with one hit of Dagger Stare and the Tentacles cause a chain reaction killing the ones nearby.

[Sethi22 142]

Look, @xeyp there's a new game in town! Can you find this stupid circle? And then afterwards find something really hard for this Alfchaval dude to look for? I think he needs to be punished for making me trudge around for an hour now, without any result. (And for tentacling with his Gladi too!)

Wow, I first thought you might have followed up on my "I knew he had to be somewhere in the center of the screen" by editing the screenshot and moving the character... I noticed the 2 guys below but managed to exclude them because all your weapon slots have a shield and they don't...
After some examination I thnk your active weapon slot is slot 3 with the waterform set?
Well looking at it for a while I can see there is something in the middle of the screen
At least my sight is better than that of your enemies

yes, tentacling with a Gladi, baah!

[Sethi22 142]

Finally! Oh this is hard work! At least there's no thinking involved, and that's a good thing. You just go. And go....and go...

I'll always go with the waterform guy, as it's the fastest way to move around without getting into trouble. I jumped to this one too, but I guess there is some harder way to go from the right side of the river to this place, (for dwarves who haven't mastered the art of teleportation yet...)

I'll think of something hard for you in exchange! I just need to go outside for a while, and take the sun damage. But when I come back, I'll post something for you... No underground areas, right?

[Sethi22 142]

This part is hard too! I couldn't come up with anything original, so I'll give you another circle. I hope someone will teach you a lesson sooner or later! I wish I knew something harder!

[alfchaval 117]

That's between Florentina and Porto Draco, the road gave it away.

I will put another one later.

[Sethi22 142]

I need to work on my skills, I'll find something difficult for you one day, I swear!

[xeyp 50]

That seems like a fun game and a fun topic to follow, I'm unfortunately on a pretty tight schedule this week as well ;( (otherwise I'd be rushing towards Niob w/ the Glad)

This is a GREAT game.  On the train out to country this weekend we were looking at this screen shot.  Its funny how framing this as a new Waldo type game can get us to look at the beauty and sensible details that the creators put into this game.  Is this really all hand-crafted?  Thanks alfchaval for finding this great new idea from the Spanish site.

Delightful new way tofreshen up and re-kindle appreciation for Sacred Underworld

Where is this house?

[Sethi22 142]

"Watch me go!"

Yo, Alfchaval, you'll get a bonus point and an easier run if you tell me  what video game this line is from!? It will take some time to find this house, you can think in the meanwhile...

edit: ok, you'll only get the bonus point, not the easy run, because there will be no next run at all! As I just CAN'T find this ***** house! I'm done for the day. Maybe tomorrow I'll find it. Or somebody else will! And then you'll get yours, cheetah!

Edited September 2 by Sethi22

[Sethi22 142]

Ok, Time's up. (No bonus point either, (It's from Icewind Dale. Male fighter 2 voice set. (The best!)) The house is found. I couldn't stop. I wanted to, because there are all sorts of important things I could do instead of this, but I couldn't. I'm not the upgiving type! Now to find something really-really hard for you... Let me think... (It was so close to thain's axe tooo... aaaargh I've been here so many times!)

Ok, I can't think of anything difficult enough, it's up for grabs, people! Send him somewhere he'll never find! So I can finally rest. If nobody posts anything, I'll find something hard sooner or later, but I hope someone will! I need to sleep now.

Edited September 2 by Sethi22

[Sethi22 142]

Oh, it's pointless. You won't find anybody else dumb enough to run around the whole map for screenshots. I'm your only victim, it seems! First I thought I'd take a screenshot about a scorpion in the desert and ask you: where is this scorpion? Which one is it? No... It was his twin brother! Go back and find the real one! But in the end, this is all just a game, so let's just go for beauty, and fun, I'll give you an easy one, one of my favourite gravestones in the game. I always pause near his grave for a moment of silence...

Those two trees make a pretty good frame for a photo.
