A little late to the party, but we will most certainly take it. Stardock and Gas Powered Games' Demigod is now playable in demo form, which is fantastic news for anyone who wants to see how well the action/strategy game can run on their computer before taking the plunge.
The demo contains access to all four multiplayer modes, four of the demigods (Regulus, Rook, Sedna and Lord Erebus), and a single map, Cataract. This may not sound like much, but believe me when I say it's more than enough to let you know if Demigod is your cup of tea or not.
For those who have played the game, who's your demigod of choice? I tend to go with Regulus more often than not.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Unclean Beast is great, until you go up against a team with a Sedna. Then he's useless. Unless you forgo Spit in favor of his other abilities, but then she could drop minions and focus on tanking...
I love Demigod because the balance level is really outstanding. Pretty much every Demigod can be countered by another one, it just depends on your build and how smart you are.
I usually bounce between Sedna and Torchbearer, occasionally playing some Oak or Rook for kicks.
