Yes, because this is a pay-to-play MMO. Excellent comparison.

[quote who="-Izzo-" reply="12" id="2276316"]There's no need to compose a "valid argument", which if I read your mind correctly means a long winded post going into details, when the thing is very simple. This is an item, nothing complex like a demigod. The problem with it is staring you in the eye. So saying it's fucking useless now is good enough of an argument, and your arguments against that haven't convinced me.[/quote] Saying it's "fucking useless now" doesn't make it so, reg

Regardless of whether or not your view is against the majority is irrelevant - your opinion is clearly that 1.1 didn't do what you wanted it to do and so you're complaining. And make so mistake - you may post long winded arguments, however they don't actually argue anything; you're just complaining in more words than the others.

[quote who="Kodiak888" reply="8" id="2275676"]... Also, the cost is more outrageous because of the post-production costs. It costs a company money to have a game to have boxes made, manuels printed, cd's burned, shipping, and shelf space. DLC (and direct download games) don't have this cost, or have it at a fraction of the amount. That makes the proportions even more skewed. Downloaded games should be cheaper IMO than the tactile product I can go buy at the store. They aren't though... [/quot

[quote who="Misfortune" reply="4" id="2275666"]That was my point - as the update contained almost no fixes to gameplay bugs, it is as if noone worked on these for the past two months. Speaking of usual way things are with patches - code is improved non-stop and gameplay bugs are fixed as soon as they are discovered and resources are available. Balance changes are done in lumps. Then BOTH balance changes and gameplay bug fixes are released in a patch. In this case, it s

For every issue that gets fixed, there is going to be people who complain that the issue they perceived as the most important wasn't fixed. Glitches and bugs which effect a small number of the popullation - however vocal - are going to be lower on the list than items that effect everyone's game, such as the aforementioned Priests and Angels tweak and the HoL nerf. The repercussions of these changes is far more reaching, and improves the quality of a high number of people's games compa

Demigod Abbreviations Lexicon in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

After playing a few games of Demigod, it's fairly obvious that there can be either a lack of, or a delay in, communications due to the lack of in-game voice chat. Most games acquire their own abbreviations naturally as the game progresses, however I thouht perhaps we, as a community, could come up with our own abbreviations to help make communicating a little easier and faster. If for nothing else, when a player sees an abbreviation they don't understand this might help

Reply to 1.1 Hotfix in Demigod Demigod Forums

Well, frankly improving the AI isn't really a hotfix kind of issue - the random Demigod option could be, assuming it's a simple error and easy to correct. Hotfixes are usually reserved for game breaking issues that were dormant in the patch.

Reply to HoL and priest info in Demigod Demigod Forums

Comebacks are a rare thing in Demigod. Usually what people perceive as a come back is really just one side playing the other. Anything to help give everyone a fair chance, not just 'Shit I died - concede', is a good thing in my opinion.

I've seen a lot in my time on the internet, but never in all my years have I seen so many people bitch, moan and complain that a game actually receives attention from the Developers. Balance and stability improvements will continue for years . There is no silver bullet - it's an on going effort. The game is two months old, and the amount of attention it has received from it's creators rivals a game three or four times it's age, at least. If you can't appreciate th

Well, MMO isn't quite that horrible, albiet it is long winded. Games like Call of Duty 4 are Multiplayer games, however they're not 'online' as they have an offline component. Games like Second Life aren't multiplayer as such, however they're online online. So, MMO lets people know that it's a multiplayer game, totally online with no singleplayer component and.. er.. it's massive!

Perhaps this is already a feature, and is something I simply haven't been able to find, but I'd like to be able to add non-Impulse games to my Impulse Games list. I have many games on my harddrive, and it would be nice to be able to browse them all just by loading Impulse. I agree with above post, it's a great feature of Steam and hopefully this will come when they finish implementing the Friends system. The last thing I'd like to be able to do is be able to see whats happenin
