Yeah I have. Its a great game, but on one of the worlds there is a glitch thats causes you to have to spend long long hours to get past it. B&W² is looking good too. :nod:

I hate that game... I hated my creature... I hated my weak ass powers... I hated my stupid followers... I hated that they sung songs... I hated that the songs were bad... I hated that they wouldn't let me skip them.
The game had potential... but it ended up being a bad rts game merged with one of those cheap digi pets that you have to feed or they'll die...
Boring and annoying...
If I made a game about being god then it would START with me determining the tenets of my faith. What do I believe? What should my people believe... Where were my damn zealots? ALL Gods MUST have zealots... but not in black in white... why? Cus it blew.
Slow, boring, and unfulfilling.

B&W was awesome, just needed some tweaks like the ability to cut past scripted scenes.

Black and White was totally, unreservedly awesome.
I even played on a sheite 400 MHz comp w/ voodoo3.
I do think that having the creature be useful was too difficult. I enjoyed the contrast between having an evil villager gobbling poop eating giant monkey and being a benevolent deity.
The fact that Black and White 2 has yet to be released probably means it's going to be rather fine tuned and good when it does finally come out.
Micromanaging the worshippers for mana was a lot of work though, they were some seriously needy bitches. Sometimes I think it would have been better to throw the lot of them on the altar (did it with a child by accident once and damn it was a lot of mana).

Yeah... that's basically all I did... I trained to my creature to go wander around someone else's place... the enemy god just threw fire balls at him... not that I cared... I had a baseline of worshipers, when I needed more I just saced a few... Sacrifice was a more interesting game though... a lot more fun for online play too.

I -loved- the premise of Black and White. I loved playing it, and I loved it's potential.
Alas... It takes fucking weeks to get anything done, and I jsut can't devote that kind of time to it.

I think Black & White is a good game, but seemed kinda like a tech demo. I think B&W2 will be very good, because it seems to have alot of new and refined thingys.
