New game announced by GPG and Stardock, both very good (imo) in RPG and Strategy genre's respectively.

The games basic story line is that God, is dead. However all his sons and daughters have this great idea of fighting the rest fo the family to win the throne and become god themselves.

Now the gameplay is a bit similar as it seems to try strategy with RPG elements. But in current theory it sounds rather interesting. You choose a demi god to worship/follow. They seem to range from a gaint (stone?) with a huge hammer, to an evil lich like magic character, to a flying female in tune with nature, and more. You fight on Arenas (maps) against another demigod until one dies i believe. As you fight your demi-god levels up gaining abilities and powerful weapons etc as in any RPG.

Now it sounds good, butim not too understanding how multiplayer is planned to work. Apparently online you choose your side and help your fellow worshippers to beat the other demigods in a persistant battle online to claim the throne. im not sue if anyone controlls the demi god or if one player does. but it sounds like on an areana the whole team works towards keeping the demigod alive and a common goal of killign the other .

Shame recently the lead designer has left apparently with an apprentice of his takign over, but he promises the same game the last one promised.

If it turns out anything like intended i'm getting it.

sounds good

Wait, isn't Stardock the company that does Windowblinds and stuff!?!?

I think you're right there, Si.

Wow i never knew that. Maybe with a pre-order i could get some free blinds for my windows.

blinds lol

This just looks like Supreme Commander but fantasy instead of sci-fi, and supreme commander wasn´t actually that fun...

in comparison though this has a lot smaller maps than supreme commanders 22KM ones

It makes action more close and intense, yet the way they have done some of the level it still feels open.
