The pool of people is decreasing continuously...what will happen with this game?
In about 2months, the number of players online was cut by half and there is no custom game, well 3-4, not a lot...
Sad...
I've been playing since release and have never had a single problem finding a game, I guess it's down to each person's personal experience.

Has been going well but will always benefit from more
It has been taking longer to get games started.
As for me, been away due to some stupid cold. Go figure. Sounds like H1N1, but it's starting to get better now, I can almost stay in front of the comp but I think I'll be 100% only by the end of the week, so till then, not staying behind the comp much, hence no DG.
And it's well known that when Castrol's away, nobody plays. Eheh.
I hope people start realize that DG is more fun than HoN.
I think many ppl feel the need to try it out but eventually they will get tired of it.
Did the player base die over the weekend? I come back this Monday (today), there are no, and I mean not a single one, custom game up, and only 2 people in pantheon. Perhaps I just hit it at a bad time...
Did you ever try HoN?
Most of avid demigod players I know had been moved to HoN, and none of them (including me) is willing to go back to Demigod.
Just seeing 4-5 custom games posted at any given time is a bit disappointing. I think that at least some people (including myself) are waiting for the 1.2 patch before jumping back into multiplayer. The 2 new demigods should liven up things a bit (I hope).
If you guys have any doubts about the activity just visit http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/opengames.asp and check yourself.Ofc Summer Holidays are over and people are waiting for 1.2 but I personally havent felt/seen a significant drop in players.
I tried it and it sucks. I can't understand that anyone can have fun with a game like that, its way too simple and boring.
Population is fairly stable in terms of not declining, but the numbers are erratic from night to night. . . If that makes any sense. Some nights when I am on, there are only 1300 people logged in. Same time next night and there are 2200 people logged in. Seems to be no rythme or reason.
So true, I had alot of faith in demigod, I even convinced a handful of my friends to buy it, but now no one plays it and I felt bad they lost some $ on it. Everyone knows majority of demigods playerbase migrated to HoN, the only people denying it are just hopeful die hard fanboys. Two new demigods in upcoming patch won't save this game nor will it pull lost demigod players back to this game permanently from HoN
A game that constantly averages 1500 players online IS NOT DEAD OR GOING TO DIE. End of story. If you compare it to SC/WC3(DotA) than it is a very small amount - but so is every other RTS out there. I think this game averages more (or maybe the same) as RA3/CnC atm.
Overall there is a decline.
I stopped playing because I was sick of 8 DGs....still waiting for the new ones, and hoping that they will arrive before xmas 2011 !!
im looking forwad to "Star Craft 3" , whill will arrive sooner than Oculus and Demon....
Demigod could have really used new stuff (at least a few new items, or at the very least making some already existing items worth buying/taking) every 2 months or so.
Mods could revive the game, but we'll see when the patch actually arrives.
Well its hard to say because we dont really have any figures on how activity on other RTS games are like - so is this drop large, or small? Hard to say
most of those people rn't playing though... i think about 1200 ppl just leave demigod running 24/7 whether they play or not. Was on last night.. went through games.asp.. 1400 ppl online, however 107 were in game, in pantheon que waiting, or custom games waiting. And it was impossible to find a game (maybe that's because all 1293 just didnt want to join my game or pantheon.. but ya..)
I'm calling bullshit on that number. 1400 players and only 24 games going.... yea right.
I took a break and was waiting for the new demigods. Plus, I'm afraid to admint, I got into the HoN beta and I've been playing that a bunch
