So how fun is Demigod???

First off, I know it's a beta... and I know beta 3 is designed to 'really' make the game fun....  but.. right now... 

How fun is Demigod?  My perception is that it will be awesome...  But from you beta testers...  do you agree?  Can you shed some light and detail on this for me?

 

Thanks,

What we have right now with Beta 2D is very limited.  We only have one map, six Demigods and a clunky multiplayer.  Still it has been a lot of fun.  They've really got a compelling genre blend with Demigod.  I can see myself playing this for quite awhile.

It will be awesome when it's done. That's really all that matters to me.

It is pretty fun so far.  Assassins are great, and Generals aren't so bad if you forget your expectations and accept what they are.

Have to agree with the above thoughts.  For me the biggest issue is the poor multiplayer.  Once we get to beta 3 this week with more maps, the game will be really good.  With a few more heroes added post launch and with micro-expansion it will go in my list of all time favorites.

It´s fun but i am worried about the available content thus far, hopefully this will chance with beta 3.

Its alright with a lot of potential for improvement.  If you consider that the current state of beta testing isn't supposed to be "fun" then it is quite impressive.  I really do enjoy playing the game despite the state of the beta.  So, what I'm trying to say is that its good and will probably get better.  Potentially a lot better, so its cool.

Well I'm having fun in the not fun beta, so I can't wait to see how it should be. You don't have to worry about the not fun beta anyway. By the time you download it it'll probably have already switched to Beta 3.

Right now it's really not fun at all for more than a few games. If you were to actually play it as if it were a full game and not just a beta, then it would be really dull in it's current form. It has a LOT of potential for improvement, however.

The top 20 players have a combined total of just under 700 hours played.  That's since they started tracking stats, maybe 2 months ago?  And most of these guys have been in since the beginning - 6 months ago..

So some of us, at least, seem to be enjoying it ^^

Speaking personally I have alot of fun in this game, especially now that the games generally last 20-30 minutes instead of an hour...

Also, most of the people who play right now are friendly and have good skills - Hopefully that wont get too lost when the xbox kiddies are unleashed at release ;P

After a few games it started growing on me, and now I'm an addict.  This game is fun to play in the beta state, and I think as it matures it will get even better.

It's a great blend of RPG, real time strat, and team-based capture the flag.  Fantastic combination, and they pulled it off well.

So far I'm glad I pre-ordered the game.  :)

 

My $0.02.  ;)

Well, I have to agree with MetDragon, I fear. Sure, it is fun for couple of matches, but then you'd soon get bored, because it is always the same. Probably in different aspects, but mostly the same. I hope, they're going to chnage it in this point a bit, right now it somehow lacks a bit in... well, let's say "the special something"...

But ok, just my opinion :-)

For me, Demigod started to get fun with beta 2D. When Beta 3 was released I found it very awesome.

If there's a better RTS this year, I haven't seen it. Demigod is going to be the strategy game to beat.

With only a few selections of characters, the game is pretty awesome, man. I've been stuck here for hours just playing and improving upon my beloved Torch Bearing psychopath! Flame for the win. I'm glad this game was made, just unglad there was no necromancer-based class. Just a half-necromantic vampire that is melee.

Get it!
