    <a href="http://www.4players.de/">4players.de</a> supposedly has a <a href="http://www.4players.de/rendersite.php?sid=&LAYOUT=dispnews&GAMEID=5940&UPDATEDATE=&TYPE=&STARTTIME=&newsid=34723">teaser trailer</a> for the upcoming expansion pack to <A href="http://www.sacred-game.com">Sacred</a>. It supposedly weighs in at <b>15.5MB</b> and is in MPG format. That's about all I know because I can't seem to download it.
    <br>
    <br>
    They also have a bunch of <a href="http://www.4players.de/rendersite.php?sid=&LAYOUT=screenshot_list&GAMEID=5940&UPDATEDATE=&TYPE=&STARTTIME=&newsid=34680&ID=&SYSTEM=&setid=7461">screenshots</a> of <b>Sacred Underworld</b> as well, showing off some new critters as well as both new classes.

    Anyone else think that succubus is a little too typical and bland?

    Don't know. I can't see the screenshots.
    I can pop up a java window with a grey bar,
    buttons labelled (I think)
    previous screenshot, next screenshot and close window, but the bar never expands into the screenshot.

    And if I go off the menu on that link, I can't even get a thumbnail of the first pic.

    Hopefully soon the teasers and screenshots will be hosted on Ascaron's site so it'll be easier to see.

    The succubus bland? Odd, I personally heard 'dwarf' and immediately thought BORING. I think the combat arts the succubus gets will make her either really cool or really bland.

    Either way, I want to see a catfight between the succubus and a seraphim, that'd be hilarious ;)

    Visually, I agree that the Succubus could use some help. Her face looks almost masculine, and the colour palette is uninspiring. It's kind of like they slapped some boobies and horns on a generic model and called it done.

    Now if they had slapped horns on the boobies this game would be a lock....

    I mean bland looking in the screenshots. It's a chick with goat legs, wings, and horns. I was kind of expecting something similar to the Seraphim, which has a techie look about it. I was kind of hoping the succubus would be kind of like a darker version of the seraphim rather than a generic looking succubus. In fact, a generic looking succubus was the least likely thing I was expecting when I thought of it.

    What other characters are they adding besides the Dwarf and the Succubus?

    No other extra characters reported so far.
    Likely there won't be anymore.

    I was kind of expecting something similar to the Seraphim, except totally naked and with a bigger ass. And no, equipment wouldn't show up on her, but it would make her boobs bigger and waist tighter.

    Wow, that's the best idea for character development ever. You start off as this fat, flat, flabby naked chick, and as you level up and get better "equipment," you become steadily more attractive. Ladies that want to play get a portly, hirsute, impotent italian man who eventually blossoms into a Chip-N'-Dale's model with washboard abs and a "god rod," so to speak.

    Goat legs? On a succubus? Thats fairly fucked up right there. Can only seduce people with goat fetishes, I guess.

    That was pretty much my point in #sacred. I wouldn't want to have sex with a horned chick with goat legs. The wings are somewhat forgivable, but I don't even like chicks that don't shave their legs, let alone one with goat legs.

    Let the dying time come.

    I guess without the goat legs, the succubus would be too much like a Seraphim with wings.

    Hell, I'd do her as long as she had a decent face and some tits. The horns, wings, and goat legs just add to the taboo fetish stuff that I have.
