[quote who="si1foo" reply="8" id="2330975"]if crits couldn't be mitigated then u would have crit noobs every where and armor would be pretty much useless i think skills should migated aswell though[/quote] That would require a complete rebalancing of the game.

You won't be back-tracking in SotC much, and the environments are impressive. Also, at the bargain bin price it's almost certainly at, it's worth a look simply because the Colossi look so damned cool.

You should review the SotC debate in previous posts in light of your experience with Ico. I never played Ico myself, and SotC has zero block-pushers (that I can remember), but keep this in mind: There is a lot of riding toward the collosi. I mean, a friggin LOT. Time will go by, and it may or may not be the game for you. But hey, it's probably 10 bucks used :P

Reply to Teleport and Oak with Shield in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="MisterHankey" reply="13" id="2330382"]Thanks for the clarification all. My 2nd question: Is there a counter in the game for it?[/quote] Just that oak has effectively wasted quite a large number of skillpoints for the ability to run away from you. Shield also has a large cooldown, so it's actually far more balanced than it looks.

As such, it should not be used as an example.

How many heroes? in PC Gaming Demigod Forums

After having spent some time with Demigod and HoN, I realized that while I love having new heroes and maps to play, there really should be a limit. Playing a game with 96 heroes simply didn't feel fun. HoN's reduced number of heroes was right up my alley, as was Demigod's even lower number of heroes with more customization. So my question is, would you guys like to see a few heroes who are very customizable, or lots who aren't? How many heroes and skills should, in your opinion, become the st

All your money goes into potions. an ub that can do that is one of the weakest demigods in the whole game. he must consume much mana thus needs much manaitems thus makes him very weak against any demigod after some levels. nerfing spit would render it useless![/q

Reply to ad nauseum...minor observation about early game tanks! in Demigod Demigod Forums

Ranged demigods who can harass easily can greatly benefit from gauntlets. However, melee demigods can have a little more trouble as it becomes much harder to actually attack another player. Also, the flaw behind saying that 2 250 damage attacks take away armor's bonus is that, pitting your regulus against the same regulus (with armor) puts him ahead of you for roughly 20 hits. And I really doubt regulus needs to take 20 hits before he goes to the fountain. Even if he did, you two still have a

Reply to Very interesting thesis about demigod backstories. in Demigod Demigod Forums

Anyone who's ever played D&D quickly comes to the realization that a violent character is rarely capable of meeting the criteria for "good" set out by today's standards. However, they can often quite easily meet the criteria of feudal society, where the battle to destroy evil was considered a major part of upholding good. However, even then, the principles of good and evil are vague, individual-dependant concepts, which teeter on the brink of chaos. What about a person who kills only evil

If you're gonna play Chrono Cross, which, don't get me wrong, is an excellent game, do yourself a favor and pick up Chrono Trigger for the SNES, in my opinion a far superior RPG. Good luck finding it though. Sorry if it's already been mentioned; my memory is terrible.
