Demigod

I was doing some spring cleaning today and I came across my wired hub. "We haven't Lan'd in like forever," I said to myself. Then I thought about Demigod and how perfect it would be for a Lan. It has no DRM so it Lan's like a champ and it's super fun! I've never been a big RPG fan but the arena style and RTS elements make it entertaining, and the models and effects are super detailed so there's lots of visual reward. It may seem like the visuals are a little derivative, but I like it because it takes stuff from so many arbitrary genres. The base unit is a minotaur with a hammer and it only gets crazier from there. Whereas an RTS would try (and fail) to engross you in some grandiose narrative, this game throws tons of random shit into an area and says "there, now go at it." If you are thinking this sounds like that LOTR game (can't be bothered to look up its name), its not. It's more like Diablo meet Battlefield.

One word of caution: if you try to play this game, give it a few plays before you pass judgment. There's no tutorial and if your like me you won't know the standard RPG way of doing things, but like an RTS, half the fun is learning how things work and coming up with little tricks to tip the scales. 

So.... Lan?
