Tyo said the Vampire Lord will be shown at Pax, so that's something at least.

This is why I hope GPG is still kicking around the idea of purchasable content updates. Everyone freaks out and says they'll pay only over their dead body, but it's the best way to ensure constant patches. If they offered a few demigods for $5-10, let everyone be in games with them but only let players who paid use them, content updates would work very well.

innociv, it's been confirmed, it exists. We don't know any details. I'm sure GPG has something up their sleeves.
I think the idea is that it's impossible to master every demigod, so going random should offer some negligible advantage to match the advantage of being familiar with a certain playstyle.
A lightning demigod would certainly look impressive, and would definitely come off as original. Perhaps he could be a play on Thor, since GPG said modern religions should seem to derive glimpses from the "true" pantheon.
I would very much like to see an arena mode. Instead of the mirrored style of the maps we've seen intended for 1v1 team play, arena mode would use more circular maps. They could be played in either team mode or as free-for-all. Generals would get a stream of minions to play with, while assassins would go it alone. There would then be a bunch of computer controlled minions running around. The objective is to whoop as much ass as possible. Think of it as a deathmatch mode for Demigod.
There are sci-fi archer guys and angels, plus one screenshot showed some unclear murloc things, in addition to the larger units like fatguy, giants, and catapultasauruses. It's not all grunts :).
Making a Demigod font.
I read it as Demigod becoming so fun they spend more time testing than developing.
I really dislike threads like this. We know nothing about the balance of the game yet. Chances are much of this will not apply to the real game.
Regulus!!!
If assassins are better than generals at killing the grunt units, I worry that assassins will have a substantial advantage in leveling-up.
There is nothing easy about a 2048x2048 texture on a 30000 polygon model.
No Impulse multiplayer makes me sad, but dedication towards good performance makes me very happy :).
I pre-ordered my copy through a debit card. I hope Stardock gives a week or so advanced notice before they charge for the pre-orders. That way I can make sure I have enough money in my account. I'd be pretty annoyed to have my account overdrawn.
Demigod is not Spore.
If replays are included, they might as well go all-in. I don't think chat should be included (for privacy reasons), but I'd love to see someone's camera and selection actions.
They did mention DotA. Look at the game's announcement!
Agreed. Teamwork is key, especially if there is any sort of bonus whatsoever in getting the most kills. Everyone needs to feel like they are helping out.
10. Immaculate Chorus. At Regulus's bidding, angels sing out in immaculate chorus and down from the heavens descends Chuck Norris.
I'm still speechless.
OWL is going to dominate Demigod. You'll see.
