I've been playing Sacred 2. I'm finding the game to be kinda "meh" to be honest. It's way too grindy for an offline ARPG, and I don't like all the thrown in fetch quests either. It literally takes 300 hours to hit max level legit. That's pretty insane for an offline ARPG. I think people have gotten to level 100 in quicker than 300 hours in PoE. That's 10 hours a day for a month. That's an entire league worth of play for a lot of people. 2-3 hrs a day for the whole league.

It's like Diablo meets Skyrim, but isn't as good as either. I think it's an example of a game that tries to do too much, and doesn't shine at anything in particular. I feel like mob density in Sacred 2 is really low compared to most ARPGs. Mostly run into groups of 2-4 here and there. Rarely much more than that. If it happens, then you ran into a couple groups of 2-4 who happened to be patrolling in the same area. That makes for a lot more walking around, exploring and less killing. ARPGs are supposed to be about killing shit. If I can walk 40 feet without being aggroed by something, then there isn't enough mobs in the area. Titan quest had the same problem, but to a lesser extent, and I installed a mod that could increase mob density to up to x10. I couldn't find a similar type of mod for Sacred 2, or I'd use it.

Surprisingly, I am playing no games right now. Life outside of games is too enjoyable and on top of that I am still scheming by new PC builds details. Can't figure out if Ryzen is going to be a good choice for someone who live streams / encodes videos or if I should just stick to Intel.
