Gamespot: Demigod Preview: Generals Gameplay

Demigod is the latest hybrid of the role-playing and real-time strategy genres. First made popular by the Warcraft III mod Defense of the Ancients, Demigod looks to flesh out this formula as you take control of giant hero characters. The assassins, the first hero class, are larger-than-life warriors, meant to inflict maximum damage at close range. Assassins gameplay is akin to traditional action role-playing games in which you right-click your way to victory.

I wonder if we're over the hump now or if this is the next Call of Duty.

I still haven't found a MOBA I can get into. Did LoL for awhile, but it was such a slow grind in terms of ranking up and getting money. DOTA 2 just scares me. Infinite Crisis was alright, but I lost interest in it pretty quickly.

Chaoticmoon3558d ago

Why does Dota 2 scare you? Just wondering because imo its a fairly accessible game especially if you get some friends together to play with you. Also if you are just scared of sucking dont be, just have fun and ignore those who flame because if they are flaming then they probably suck too and are just trying to blame you for any of their mistakes. So just download it AND HAVE FUN!

Great article it is nice that someone documented the history of MOBA's.

midnightambler3558d ago

Interesting stuff, especially for a noob like me.

"From mod to sensation" to over-saturation.

i dont like how all these companys are now trying to make mobas, the markets already been taken by lol and dota.

they should come up with something new instead of just copying.
