The network code in DG really needs to be redone imo. Supreme Commander (Forge) is a fantastic game but I

Demigod castles people. CASTLES!

[quote who="OMG_ZEX" reply="32" id="2920473"] Quoting Polynomial, reply 29 The only answer to a future of Demigod is a full sequel that's probably free to play. Free to play is an option but not a necessity. Demigod doesn't have to follow League of Legend's example.

[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="4" id="2919909"] For Demigod 2: If I was making Demigod 2, I'd consider the free to play model. That would keep the community levels high and give you the opportunity for additional revenue through microtransactions. I have no objections to the standard model, but if it was free to play, we'd see a substantial amount of support and patches, etc, as long as its profitable[/quote] Demigod 1 is a lost cause.

All in all, still going to buy everything from Steam now.

[quote who="Annatar11" reply="59" id="2915711"]Sorry, but, I don't see how this is in any way, shape, or form "good for PC gamers". People supported Impulse because they thought SD is an honest company with high standards and principles. Gamestop is none of these things. It's like getting a crook (Gamestop) to try and keep an already pretty straight guy (Steam) straight? It makes no sense. And now, SD is really none of these things either. If Impulse had to be so

Steam it is for me. =/

This was always the most interesting game Stardock could have produced in my opinion.

Its basically the PC's equivalent of Xbox Live, except with all the more things you get with a PC title.

Steamworks is good.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="22" id="2885152"]I'm sure they'll announce it when it's ready. But that's what's likely going on. Something else got funded or took priority and voila. You've only got N people after all. [/quote] Society sounded like Stardock's best idea since you announced it, Frogboy, and I don't mean to discredit your efforts between the announcement and today.

MNC represents everything Demigod should have been.

[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="39" id="2831129"] What's better for the community- updates for a game that extremely few people play or a sequel with the chance to redeem the IP? Ah - so the option here is to either have GPG develop and release Demigod 2 or provide a patch for Demigod. If that were the case, I'd vote for Demigod 2... don't really think that's the case though, eh. C'mon, poly... perhaps getting a "free" update (remember the whole "series o

I know all this Frogboy. What's done is done. We've drove this home on the forums a bazillion times, I've spoke to former GPG Uber employees in person. You know that I have an understanding of what went on. Its sad, because the consumers got the short end of the stick. I understand the complications of all that went on, but the only thing Demigod can do for itself is to launch a sequel. The only reason I still think about Demigod is for the possibility for a sequel. GPG prooved it can

Squeenix did a good job with SupCom 2. Sounds like a matter of opinion, no? At any rate, Stardock sponsored a community initiative (eg is supporting the community). Whether they should be running tournaments really wasn't much of an issue for us as we decided to run one and they d

I think you're a little obsessed over the game pacov =P I loved the game as much as anyone. Stardock promised tournaments. Stardock promised the 2 Demigods like 2 months after release. Stardock promised maps. Stardock constantly complained about how expensive content is. Frogboy ragequit the forums because of trolling. Everything about Demigod was a disaster in terms of its launch and support. The shell was there, but o and Scathis left GPG and GPG went through tough times. Every cent

I just don't see a reason for Stardock or GPG to devote resources to what was sadly a poorly handled game. Especially considering GPG put out SupCom 2.
