[quote who="Liorth" reply="15" id="2138710"]Pressing F10 brings up the menu and pauses the game.[/quote] You'd think this was true. Unfortunately, it is not. I know because I just had to help my sister with her taxes, and alas! The AI mannaged to lose the game while things were "paused"... :(
[quote who="Jaradakar" reply="13" id="2138294"] The Rook has an easier time than most due to a power that deals damage and heals him at the same time. So if you pick this up early you can attack towers sooner. The Queen of Thrones also has a power that attacks towers and this helps her take down towers sooner as well (try to use it and then get out of range so you don't take too much damage). -Jara[/quote] I've done 2 complete rounds now, both a
Alright, I just did my first complete game. I feel like I'm a { Basic strategy seems to be: kill things until I level up enough to break towers. Assaulting towers at levels under 10 or so is a quick way to spend 30 seconds figuring out what I did wrong...
[quote who="ROCK_01" reply="9" id="2137991"]I recommend to look into the manual wich covers the basics(Strcutures,Shops etc.). Has been posted in another thread, but i don't think it will hurt if posted once more: https://www.stardock.com/demigodmanual.pdf[/quote] Yes, that should help immensely! :)
[quote who="Sir_Loui" reply="5" id="2137899"]So do you like the game? any sort of review would be nice...[/quote] If you're asking me to review the game... I'm not going to. I've put 5 minutes into it, and am on the forums begging for a tutorial. Sins of a Solar Empire and Galactic Civilizations 2 were equally unfriendly to newcomers, and I would recommend them in the _strongest_ possible terms. So there you go...
That's not bad advice, and I'm totally willing to play with Bots (I may _never_ play with humans-- that's not how I rolll...). My questions are more basic ones like "what's this energy thing"? and "where is my life meter?" And, um, "where's the damned tutorial!" Because Sins had a tutorial that at least helped me know the basics. I sure would like to know where the buttons are and what they do...
So, I'm doing my first round of Demigod, and I'm... Clueless. It's little things like A) how do I kill things? B) why do I keep dying? C) where's the tutorial that will answer these questions. Then it's bigger things: I don't have a scroll wheel on my trackball*, how do I zoom out? I'd be rather grateful to anyone who could help me figure out this game! *I'm not going to change mice just for one game.
