Epic and People Can Fly were the ones promoting the game instead of generate hype.
I like their method, it was pretty good and effective.

But why didn’t it sell well?
well why would majority of us gamers want to keep killing a dead guy? seriously :/
i’ll rather do that in hack n slash like DMC or NG.
But for FPS? you’ve got to be kidding me.
Also wtf is with new FPSs have all these ANNOYING point system for killing?
so stupid. Don’t tell me they all got inspired by MW 2:/

The hype generated around it was regarding this.

But it was a pretty fun game for multiplayer, and people still play it now. Shame that Fasa shut down because DLC would have been very welcomed, like more maps, classes, weapons etc..

It had its share of problems, though.

First, the campain was incredibly short (sure, multiplayer was fun… but still).

Second, it was a micromanagement hell. Those freaking villagers couldn’t do anything on their own. How can I focus on expanding my influence when they are constantly asking for more food, more wood, more houses, more children… They can’t even breed on their own!

Third, I didn’t feel very powerful for a god. I needed people praying in order to do the most simple things, while my pet could do it without a sweat… And you were extremely dependent on it. It became clear on stage 3, when you’re without your pet. It’s ridiculously harder.

It was still cool because of pets. And I’m still waiting for B&W3.
