Demigod Developer Interview

[bapenguin]

Gas Powered Games has always been a supporter of co-op with games like Dungeon Siege and Space Siege. Demigod is a new game coming out that is going to offer a slightly different take on co-op, something more akin to Unreal Tournament rather than a strong story based game.

Co-Optimus talked with Mike Marr, lead designer, from Gas Powered Games about their upcoming unique hybrid game.

Co-Optimus: What's your favorite Demigod of the bunch?

Mike: Unclean Beast. There's just something about a plague-spewing hound chasing down and obliterating enemies. The Beast is a fast skirmisher that requires good situational awareness, since he can't take too much damage. You're always on your toes trying to find that next soft target while avoiding being someone else's target.

I played DotA for about two years regularly, I'm keeping my eye on this one.

This could be interesting....

He needs to bring Dungeon Siege III to the 360.

I'm a little intrigued by this title, but I haven't found any of Gas Powered Games' releases to be all that fun. I know this is pretty different from their past games, so hopefully they release a demo at some point.
