AtomicGamer has published their review of Demigod, and give it an overall score of 89%!

“For a fan of Supreme Commander or other traditional RTS titles, Demigod's a pretty big difference. As an Assassin character, you only actually control your one unit, fighting off enemy troops, trying to take out their Demigods, leveling up, increasing your attributes, gaining new abilities with a large tree of interesting choices, and using the money you gain from several sources (including getting kills) to buy and equip items to increase your powers. And much of the game's depth isn't just in winning battles, it's in building specific characters that perform specific roles.”

89 is a bit high, but more like what this game deserves if you assume that all multiplayer issue will get solves and stats will work.  I think if the release had been delayed a bit to fix these issues and add a bit more content, 87 would have been the average review.  I hope that the bad early reviews do not limit stardocks support of the game.  I would like to see them "re-release" the game in the fall for the christmas season with a Demigod - Pantheon Extreme Edition.  This edition would hopefully get re-reviewed with multiplayer fixed, new maps, new demigods, and possibly a single player tutorial and short campaign or something of the sorts for $50.  This game really deserves better reviews that it got, and I would hate to see it die, because of early issues.

Better, but how many of these were from the first week.  All of them.  As stated above, I think the average review from players, even without a tutorial or campaign, would be 85-89% if connectivity and bugs were taken care of.  Ho0pefully people are patient and don't give up on this one.
