Hey Stardock I have a few suggestions on ways to improve Demigod.

from Demigod Forums

I would first off like to say that I find this game a lot of fun and far better than DOTA (I really do not like DOTA at all but I am a huge fan of the AOS genre).  I am very happy with my desicion to purchase this game and it is well worth the money I spent for it.  I do however, feel as if there are areas of the game that can be improved, making the overall experience a lot more fun.

My first concern is that it feels as if the movement speed of all the Demigods is just painstakingly slow!  Also it would be nice if it was easier to see enemy Demigods when there is a huge battle going on (with the exception of Rook of course hehe) Some of the smaller Demigods are just plain hard to see in the midst of battle.  The smaller Demigods simply just do not stand out enough when there is a large group of units.

I also think that the Demigod maps can be improved. While they are sleek and pretty they just don't offer up enough options and strategies. In games like DOTA (I just use DOTA as a reference because for some reason it is the most popular AOS) there are multiple paths ELEVATION CHANGES trees and other sorts of decorations. The trees however are more than just decoration, a team can coordinate an ambush hiding behind the trees awaiting an enemy player.

Another small gripe I have is that I would like to be able to cast spells on myself (mainly healing spells) by clicking on my Demigod's portrait.  It would sometimes be easier (going back to the hard to find Demigods in battle complaint) and quicker if I could just click on my Demigods portrait.

I just feel as if a few design changes can improve on an already great game. Why not give players more options/strategies with elevation changes and ambush positions? Another small gripe is that I wish when I clicked on a player I could see his inventory and other basic information.

 

Those are my suggestions/complaints that I have noticed after a few hours of play.  Feel free to post your ideas and complaints as well.

Or maybe Demigod movement speed could be increased, but the Demigods could would not be able to clip through all the units.

You do know that you can play the game on a faster speed? Although i personally enjoy it the best on the default speed.
Yes its a little slow at first, but i got use to it after ahwile and enjoy it better then any of the other speeds.

I do agree with you about maps though, I want more maps hehe.

No..  The game would jsut be runing back and forth between health crystal instead of playing.

Hold CTRL to only target demigods, and they'll highlight.

I'm getting tired of saying these things 20 times. >_<

They where going to have fog of war obscuring thigns, but they didn't do it.  Probably too hard. M aybe it'll be in later, but probably not.  It's very sad that this isn't in the game, but it just isn't.  Trees and other objects would be stupid just for decoration if you couldn't hide behind them.
