What did you all think of the demo? I must say, it's a damn fine game! My only complaint is I'm used to having camera control over my character, but I sorta forgot about it after getting in to the game anyways.

I thought it was pretty fun! It's feels awfully Fable-esque, but that's okay. I really liked how you could catch the wheat on fire with your fireball spell, I wish more games had something like that. Hopefully they'll change the right stick so it defaults to the camera and you have to hold the LB to sweep the minions.

I enjoyed the demo. The camera is kind of awkward at first. The story and dialogue has me hooked though. Hopefully it will be a full blown adventure and nota 8-12 hour romp.

i thought it was stupid at first, and i dont think its "great" persay, but it was fun, and had good humor in it, the demons made me laugh once or twice. they reminded me of grunts in halo. but i first i thought it was lame and boring, but controlling the minions and having them wreak havok on animals, plants, and enemies was pretty cool. i wish they would make them move more realisticly (sp) not in a tight pack and the running animation could be better i guess. anybody know the highest known number of minions you can have? hopefully it gets pretty high

yeah, not having total camera control was confusing at first, but I don't care any more. I can't wait to buy that game.

To answer some your questions,

The max minion count if 50 and the game is supposed to take 30-40 hours for the average player (the preview i read said that the developer test team, who know the game inside and out, take 20 hours to complete the game). With multiplayer this game should have pretty good longevity.

Thought it was alright but felt awkward in some respects.

The camera - it seems necessary that you have to push the Left shoulder button in order to move it.
The minions - its are a nice idea but it didn't work as well as I thought it would. First off if several objects are close to each other you have no idea which one you'll be sending them to as there are no marker when selecting it. Secondly my minions kept overlooking objects such as souls, gold, weapons and other things meaning I would constantly have to see if they missed something they should have picked up the first time round.
The level - I hope that its only because its the first level that its so linear, you really don't have a lot of choices to do.

It got potential, I just hope they fix the above :P

I thought it was pretty fun, I have not played neither Pikmin or Fable so this should be a new experience at least for me.

I wasnt to sure what to expect when I downloaded the demo. But I think its great. I must agree not having 100% camera control is annoying at first. I might have to buy this game as well as the Darkness on 29th now.

It took me a while to get used to the camera controls, but once I did I loved it even more. I'm going to buy it.

Yeh. It's sort of like the lovechild of Fable and Dungeon Keeper. It'll be great.
