Install
Install went smooth, I did have an error that required Impulse to close, but Demigod installed just fine.
Performance
Using Fraps my fps was almost always at 30, it never went below this even with lots of action on screen. I had all game settings set to high. My resolution is set at 1680x1050 with 32bit color. I had Vertical sync set on and AA was off. I had zero crashes and zero lockups
Some noted things, maybe by design at this stage.
There is no camera movement other then zoom.
Some of the UI buttons turn into a red box when used.
I can't scroll using the mouse.
Rook is a powerhouse.
