Demigod had a regrettable launch. Too many pirates, server infrastructure couldn’t cope. But after a week we’re sure Stardock would rather forget, things are looking up!

A status report on Stardock’s site lets us know that while for an unfortunate few [[link]] the online-only game is effectively broken, for “most people” things are “working pretty decently”. Which isn’t a clean bill of health, we know, but it’s also good enough for people to at least dip their toes into the game’s cold, icy depths.
While it’s [[link]] easy (especially if you actually bought the game) to get angry at Stardock for such a sloppy launch, try and remember that a big reason it was so [[link]] sloppy in the first place is because the company shipped the game without DRM. Which really is something that should be applauded.
