I'm having the same problem. Saw Fences for the first time and thought it looked interesting, tried to download it and did the File not Found thing. I also am using a laptop with Vista Home Premium.

I've noticed myself that I ended up with more then 2 or a certain type of minion when I've sold a lower level idol to get a higher one, so I think the problem is the game doesn't check\desummon minions from a different level idol of the same type when you summon new ones from it. Uh, I'm pretty tired so my if that sentance didn't make any sense then try buying a level 1 Minotaur idol, summoning them, selling it and buying a level 2 idol and summoning again, should end up with two level 1 Mino

Whether or not that is the real or sole reason why they did it, the idea that art direction, such as the scale of the Demigods relative to the grunts and each other, should be designed with an eye to gameplay first and aesthetics second I think is releveant to the thread.

I think a good analogy is to look at how Blizzard decided upon the colour scheme for Diablo III. Originally they were going to go for a darker palette, but they discovered that with more colour its easier to tell what's going on due to the contrast and by adopting a crisper look. Graphical assets should communincate information well first, and look good second, imo, and atm I don't feel the Demigods are distinct enough from everything else to achieve that.

[quote who="Frog100" reply="22" id="1986241"] Last hitting is not a flaw, I don't get this whole "I hate last hitting" thing. What would the alternative be? [/quote] Minimising overkill. Lets say that you d 50 damage. You have the choice to hit a grunt on 10 health and a grunt on 100 health, if there isn't last hitting then, as a general rule, the better choice would be to hit the grunt with 100 health yet, because you know your grunts who do say 5 damage each will

[quote who="OrleanKnight" reply="12" id="1978363"] Quoting FlamingDemon, reply 6 I'm not saying that we need last hitting in Demigod, for one it pretty much requires having a permanent health bar on top off all the grunts, which with the amount of them there are would just be incredibly cluttered. The option to turn Health Bars on all grunts and targets on the field is already in the game. Pressing the ~ buttom on the far left of your keyboard, beanth the ESC key allows you to cycl

[quote who="OrleanKnight" reply="4" id="1978131"] Demigod and DotA are two different games, and DotA fans need to understand it's not going to become more like DotA despite their desire to see it that way. The biggest argument I've seen is this Last Hitting nonsense, which doesn't make any sense in Demigod. For starters, your Grunts, not Creeps, arn't just a complete midness Zerg. They are an ever present source of income and power for both teams while at the same time being the measure

Wisdom is not a well defined concept, and so is generally decided by a post-hoc decisions calling a range of actions 'wise' and then saying thats what wisdom is. However as it lacks a strict definition what actions you define as wise can easily be argued to be unwise by others, as they're applying a different definition of wisdom, and neither of them are wrong as there is no firm consesus on what wisdom is. Edit: Wow, didn't realise this topic was so old; figured it was on the fron

Just to clarify I wasn't meaning to imply that suspending evade\capture abilities while stunned was more illogical or nonsensical then keeping them active, just that it seems a bit fruitless to debate the merits of either method in terms of which is most logical as they're fairly unashamed game mechanics. I feel it should come down purely to which is best in terms of game balance. I worry it would make stun too effective if it overuled capturing and evade; and make evade pretty useless relati

Capturing a flag merely by standing in its radius hardly makes sense or is logical. How is the Demigod making it spin or exerting control over it? Its pretty obviously a game mechanic so I think anyone who comes to it can adapt to it either way. I say use whichever method is more balanced. Personally I feel if stun took away evade\the ability to capture it would overpower the ability, as well as severly reducing the use of evade in comparison to armour value. But if it turned out it made the
