I’ve played Demigod beta and I highly enjoyed it. For those who are familiar with Warcraft III’s “Defense Of The Ancients” mod should be very familiar with Demigod. It’s a strategy game cross with action RPG. You control one unit in a AI controlled army. Your unit is a like a hero unit in most strategy games. You gain levels, acquire weapons, and obtain skills while you fight and capture points on the map. You can see why CEO of Stardock, Brad Wardell, wanted to put this video out there because the concept is a bit different from most strategy games out there.

The only problem is the only way you can be in the beta is by preordering it which is a $45 entrance fee. Even the wise Bard “DRM free” Wardell misses the opportunity by not making the beta open for everybody and help spread the word of this game. This is especially important for a game like Demigod which is a brand new franchise and is almost new genre in gaming.
