Forgot about the map! FINALLY A NEW MAP111

It’s fine for a 25-minute game. It’s not enough for a 47-minute game.

thanks for pointing this out guys. i wasn’t bold enoough to say this and just appreciated the attempt. but yeah i TOTALLY agree with you just thought i critizised Demter enough already.
i also think the eye glow too robotic.a few others and me already showed (with AI..) how the glowing eyes should look.
also its not truely a different look, i don’t know why they name such a small change like that, they had so many options of blue prints others and me gave them with AI… but no… sigh :slight_smile:

Okay, on second read of the patch notes I may have overrated on initial read. Although they did change more than half her bonuses (which seems a huge change to me), the changes that give her ‘flavour’ aren’t as radical. Increase to Villager Training makes sense for her. But I would have included Town Centres in this. I wonder why they didn’t? The herdables one makes sense for her too, but I think the garrison buff bonus was more powerful tbh. The human and myth unit one is random, but I suppose it replaces the equally random gold one.

From an aesthetic point of view, they should have kept the 2 farmers bonus, because it really feels like its been shoehorned into Pan’s unrelated technology.

The double vill on farm tech is too prohibitive early on, it should be the first tech you research along with Divine Labor in order to start a strong farm economy.

Cost-wise these feel like mythic age techs rather than classic age ones, right now.

Minor Update 19.15437

  • Fixed a bug that caused God Power blockers to persist past their intended durations.
  • Fixed a bug that caused incorrect multi-training on all unit production buildings in some situations.
  • Patch notes for the last update have been corrected to show FALKOR as the correct cheat input (FALCOR was a typo).

i totally agree that the costs are currently too high for these classical age techs. i mean yeah they are pretty good and they fit pan well but no one said pan needs to get these good economic techs that such high costs are justified. but i do like what they did with the lykaon stuff i have to say!

demeter really got much better (not only winrate but i mean vibe wise) still not the demeter i hoped for a BIG part but it still MUCH better for what they did with demeter in my opinion at least.

Maybe some of Pan’s God techs cost more favor because of Demeter’s favor gathering bonus with herdables near Temple and they think Demeter would be too good otherwise.

And I think they are trying to force a defensive play style for her. Otherwise if the upgrades were too cheap they would pay themselves off immediately and the player would be free to attack.

I don’t think that favor is the main issue, but rather the fact that every one of these techs costs food.

The techs don’t have to be very cheap, but double vill on farm tech makes no sense to be researched later on, that’s something that you want to research in the early game.
