Demigod - The 3D of Dota...

(Demigod... Also known as new generation of DotA... LOL~~~)

I just bought this game during Sunday and install it on my com... Well... Let me give you some brief details about this game... First of all, this game is 90% like DotA... If you do not know what is DotA, just Google it or Youtube it... Lol... The differences from Dota and Demigod is that Demigod is able to upgrade your creeps (in DotA) or minions (in Demigod) by increasing their battle capabilities... Besides that, you can upgrade your buildings HP and tower attack damage... For your own team, where they seperate it into Light and Darkness, they have something known as War Point, which will accumulate every second, depending on how many flag you have occupied and some certain criteria which I still trying to discover... Basically, what does the War Point do is when you reach a certain amount of War Point, your citadel will level up and the maximum level for both team are 10... So, some of the upgrade for your team are only upgradable when you reach that level...

Next, one thing I really like about this game is their map... Even though the map they provided are like 5 or 6, but it is still quite challenging compared to DotA where you have to stick with one same old map everytime we play... There are some maps that created for 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4... Each different map has distinctive pathways and flags that able to boost your units... Oh... And about the flags... The flags are something that able to be occupied by both team... Each flags has their own meter indication which team has occupy it... Towards the left it is belongs to Darkness while to the right is the Light... Eventually, they even provided Neutral in the middle... Different flags provides different support such as increasing ur minion HP, damage, armor, and a few more...

Now... Comes to the heroes... Compared to DotA, is true that DotA has 90+ more heroes than Demigod, which is only 8 heroes... Is quite sad to see there is only total of 8 heroes but what I like about the heroes in Demigod is their skill tree... DotA skills are fixed with 3 basic skills and 1 ultimate which basic skills can level up to 4 level (fixed) and ultimate to level 3 (fixed)... As for Demigod, the skill tree for each hero is different... There might be some spells that able to level up to 3 levels or some to level 4... However, the best part is when your skill reach the max level, some of the skill has extra effect by learning the skill at level 15... Then they have some skill linking like MMORPG games, where you must learn certain skills in order to learn the other skills, which provide a wider variety of spell combination for the heroes... I played one hero in Demigod... That hero can be a Frost Mage or Fire Mage... The Frost Mage has freezing and slowing abilities, mainly for supporting meanwhile the Fire Mage has blasting and increase attack and movement speed abilities, mainly for killing...On the other hand, this hero can be turned into a pure supporter by letting him learning all freezing and supporting skills only... Now you see, in Demigod, one single hero can play in three styles... Or maybe there are more which I havent discover yet... This is what I like about the heroes in Demigod...

Lastly... The best thing of all for Demigod which I really like the most... That is the AI set for the computer in Demigod... They are superbly strong if you fight against Hard or Nightmare AI... They are maniacs... Actually, I haven't tried Nightmare, but when I was playing with Hard AI, it was so tiring and difficult to play with... So as you can see, Hard is already "hard" enough... So what do you think about Nightmare AI's??? LOL!!!!!

To conclude my introduction of this game, is not that I'm saying that this game is much more better than DotA or whatever... But from my point of view, this game might be fun and nice to play if anyone bored with playing DotA as Demigod is a more advanced and upgraded version of DotA gameplay where you can do things that DotA can't do... Lately, I am bored with DotA so now I'm really enjoying Demigod very much... LOL...
