Are the individual Sacred and Gothic games distinct enough to warrant individual tags?

telica, saesslor, gladelyn, and tallicus could probably do with suffixes, they don't sound terribly unique to me. Maybe even biomutant.

Sacred games actually have very little in common between them, aside from Sacred 3/Sacred Legends pair, and the later is long defunct. Final Fantasy series is the best analogy: similar gameplay and few lore elements, but other than that, they are not connected. Citagel, 3, Legends were produced by different studios and had different gameplay, and while 1 and 2 were done by same company and are the most famous by a great margin, they again shared very few things in common.

Tallicus was Sacred 3 exclusive creature and will very unlikely return in newer games, but I think that aliasing it to only Sacred 3 might be wrong.

About Gothic - I think they should be aliased to something like "gothic_(video_game_series)", as, unlike Sacred, they actually have much more in common.
