Yes but when they said that the metioned other style of games, not other version of the AoS style map.

I wish they compiled a list of everygame the go inspiration from. So lets write down nearly every title ever produced. Ohh and i hope they mention Battlefield 1942 because there is a capture system and i hope they mention streetfighter because guys will shoot fireballs and don't forget Spy vs Spy because some demigods might be able to plant boobytraps or cover people in acid buckets.

The thing is, DotA is truly the best AoS out there. There aren't any others that nearly match it in terms of quality, balanced, hero count, and just overall fun. I've played a lot of the AoS's out there and a lot of them are just horrid. Most of them have pointless new features that only clutter gameplay, or have overly complex and pointless spells that seem to be made to be flashy more than functional.

I think Demigod should focus on not being DotA as much as possible; so far it feels almost identical besides having less features and more issues. Hopefully as Beta grows, it will become more and more unique and develop it's own feel.

...key word hopefully.

Saying that DoTA is the best out there is just ignorance of the better ones! DoTA's like angel arena more than it is like an aos imo. Couple of things DOTA fails on where other AOS's are better:

• customizable base / spawns / upgrades
• 6 inventory slots, this is just pure lazyness from the creators of dota... Give every hero a slot for everything ex)helm slot, 2 ring slots, neck, head , gloves , boots etc.
• Heros are OP in comparison to the creep spawns, I guess this is just a personal opinion, I hate feeling like a god one-hitting all the creeps... or being able to withstand dmg from them indefinitly.
• Better hero variety and skill variety, true tho I have seen those AOS' where the skills are just eyecandy more than useful... but there are alot where the skills are very unique and have good purpose...

Dota sucks their I said it. almost everyone who plays Dota will curse at u and boot u from game if your nub because its your first time playing it. I agree trip being a god is not fun. I want creeps to actually be able to fight.

edit: go tides of blood. I personally think its more like demigod than Dota cause it has unique people with almost all very unique moves unlike Dota which has a million repeats. Even though in ToB u can become godlike u can buy creeps like generals which cant be killed so easily and it will never come to one hit k o to creeps.
