[Crash] Each update puts a bigger frown on my face... :(

Featuring Frogboy personal challenge!

from Demigod Forums

We all play games to make us happy.  Speaking as an economist let's call happiness Utility.  Pay for the game $ decrease, utility decreases, Play in the beta, Utility Increases. Play in Next Beta, Utility Increases, Game Laucnhes, Able to play 1 30 min match every 2 hours, very lucky if no disconnects, utlity decreases, Update One, Game crashes after opening videos, rename videos, still crashes 75% of the time, Able to play 1 30 min match every 1 hour 55 minutes have not completed one game against human enemy, Utility decreases, Update two, addresses connectivity issues, start application, no crash, click internet, wait 5 minutes, utlities decreases,click login, wait 5 minutes, utility decreases, click pantheon, wait 10 minutes, fatal error, UTILITY DECREASES!!!!

..... reminiscing of the smoothness of the beta... utility increases

I bought this game to make me happy, to have fun, to enjoy, not the opposite.

There's my last one hundred lines.  Now earn my $55 CDN and make this game work Frogboy.

I just wanted to comment that the I love the term utility for quantifying happiness.  My utility increased in seeing someone use it.

Start11 - Customize the Start Menu and Taskbar in Windows 10/11.

Benjamin, you have replied to a lot of posts whining recently, as far a I was aware you have requested a refund for the game after 2 days of release not willing to actually see what happens when connectivity is fixed.

Maybe you should find something better to do with your time now you will not be playing Demigod with us anymore?
