** As said above, the Dwarf is seen by some as being overpowered in his own way. While he is slower than other characters (actually only a bit more than the average, non-amped up character speed) and cannot ride horses (which is kind of a moot point considering all the characters in the Gold Edition have to dismount to collect items, making many players prefer to go on foot), it doesn't fully compensate his incredible strength and toughness, his powerful ranged techniques and his unique blacksmith skills.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: NPC Maegalcarwen can be found in Zhurag-Nar about to be sacrificied when playing as the Dark Elf, and she ''can'' be saved if the player is fast enough, but there is no dialogue available with her. Most fans who followed the storyline of the two elves would have expected an explicit resolution, perhaps a promise to meet again after the game's final battle or, if the player failed at saving her, a DyingDeclarationOfLove. But nothing of it happens at all, so it is left to the fans's imagination.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: While ''Sacred'' was still successful in its native Germany, it could not compare to United States (with ''PC Gamer'' putting it as the best roleplaying game in 2004) and particularly Spain (where it won awards and sold like crazy). Russia also has a dedicated fanbase.

** ''Underworld'''s Embalmed Forest has a house which has a [[spoiler:giant centipede under it, bigger even than the dragons, even with us not seeing it's full body]]. Makes you wonder what else can be hidden deeply underground...

* FirstInstallmentWins: This game (and ''Underworld'', counting it as one and the same) is the most known and successful of the franchise. Meanwhile, ''VideoGame/Sacred2FallenAngel'' is liked too, but it tend to be pretty divisive, and ''VideoGame/Sacred3'' is downright loathed.
