Default Re: So what is this new game Demigod?

I was maybe excessive, but anyway in most RTS there aren't that many viable strategies with a given faction. Sure there are some variations, from the tank spamming of C&C to the relatively diverse possibilities of an 'age of', but for an optimal gameplay you're most of the time narrowed into a specific strategy, which kills the pleasure when you discover 'iteration X' of the good old genre that'll have to do till developpers decide that shinny graphics aren't doing a great game all on their own.

It's sad to realize a domain as new as PC games is so reluctant to innovate. How many games on WW2 ? Come on, scenarists and creatives can't be that costly.

I recently played Dawn of War, but it was more to satisfy my teenage frustrations, of not being able to have the armies I dreamed of. It is a rather poor/too classical game, apart from that.
