Godus 2.0 opinions Mar 14, 2014 11:55:10 GMT

I feel the same way. It all seems very meh to me. I am not sure if my issue with sculpting is my mouse/system or if the game is not very precise in the "grabbing" of land. I find that I have to go back and "grab" land a lot. I tend to want to quickly click "grab" and drag and not click hold to "grab" and then drag that seems to be needed. Also I am not sure I like the starting area, with so little open flat land it starts so slow. I think if we started in a more plain like region so we could have more houses early on it would help speed up the early game a lot.

Peter tweaked my specific settings too far, and it actually moved the land under my house I am now homeless damn you Peter

Being serious .. dear god the game is slow to load. I lost interest by the time it loaded. Also it is late and I should do that sleep thing before trying to care.

Analytics people have looked at Godus and have said it’s insane to do monetisation this way. We’ve replaced tapping with stroking and it’s delicious.

This game is really starting to feel like a F2P mobile game, that has not yet been monetized and being played on a PC platform. The reason why they are not "rolling out" the mobile info yet is because we are all playing it. Look, the voyages are okay at best and I can totally see buying your way out of them just as SO offers you a way to buy out of Guild quests. The stickers are getting harder and harder to get and I can see them becoming for sale. Need a God Power you have not earned yet? No problem, at the Godus store you can buy one. I don't mind it half as much as you might think I am just sad it is nowhere near the game I had hoped it would be. I will keep at it because the more settlements I can make the less of that damn belief I will have to collect.

I agree, and that's even from just watching the twitch stream.

The problem with F2P games is that they fail to hold my interest. I know it's just me and that others get addicted to F2P games, but seriously .. I look at all the fabulous indy games in my library, and I think of how well they've done without a need for monetisation. Maybe it's not the Peter Molyneux retirement fund, but it's a problem I'd love to have :-)

God should not have to collect belief. That is just a tedious mechanic built in to make you want to buy out it. I would pay not to have to do it, it sucks and it is stupid. Get rid of the uber F2P, even Wow has a real store but they don't have any damn stuff like collecting belief.

And we should be able to electrocute and batter that priest if he doesn't do it fast enough.
