If the on disk version of the game when released in AUS is not a very recent and very fixed patch...I won't be buying it at all. I refuse to buy a game that potentially won't work or will have game breaking flaws. When is the last time you bought a CD and they accidentally slipped in a 4 track demo recording of a track instead of the produced one...never you say? My point exactly. You pay for a working release. You don't buy a cd knowing it's f-ed up so that you can dow

I don't like the idea of the game I buy being outdated and in dire need of multiple patches on day 1....kind of defeats the purpose of having a disk at all. So much for all the pro single player ( no DRM ) aspects of the game when you have to go online to update the sucker. I find it more than a little bit amusing that this

My god, stardock, you continue to amaze me with your outstanding PC support. I bought the digital/physical bundle of demigod and will be buying this game on day 1. As someone who does not play games online and has a terrible internet connection the updated physical version is immensely appealing to me. It is a shame that the same is not possible with demigod....unless I am mistaken and there is some way to install and patch the game fully offline.
I was a cardboard outer case ( with no real reinforcing cardboard to stop the box from collapsing ) and then on the inside there was a really sad effort of a cardboard dvd sleeve with the dvd loosely held in. To be honest I often throw away the outer case as the cardboard looks tacky and just put the hard case with my other games on a shelf, if it is a limited edition I do the same but leave the box with the items separate, I don't like the cases getting damaged from we
Thanks for the reply, i've bought too many games recently that had little to no offline content, and this is never indicated in the game, I still play HOMM on a weekly basis, and it never gets old, so that's good to hear that this will offer similar levels of replayability.
When I ordered the limited edition of demigod there was a cheap cardboard case shoved in the box and a bent pewter figure...not exactly what I was expecting... Will there be a hard plastic game case inside so that in 12 months time I won't have to remove the disk and put it into a generic plastic dvd case from kmart because my cheap cardboard box has disintegrated... You know because a limited edition game should be something you can put on display, not lock away in a dry plac
That would be awesome, the graphical style would make for some awesome art books etc.
Being that it is not an RTS so to speak, skirmish would not be the correct word to describe it, but the sandbox mode will be a kind of free-play mode where you can just load up a match and play against the A.I that is not strictly tied to the campaign? (you can tell i'm not in the BETA ) But as a long time RTS and HOMM fan I have to say that I have never once felt compelled to play a game online. So if anyone could give me the official yay or nay
