I let my creature eat him. Funniest part is when your people start becoming ill. I just sent the grain to rival towns.

Haha yeah. It does get very tedious and the characters are really gay, especially the annoying black woman Sable who sounds like the operator on Virgin Mobile. And those little accordion fags. I threw them into the sea.

The only worthwhile bit is on the third "level", where there is a guy that you can throw as far as you want, and he won't die. He just keeps returning to where you found him.

I recommend throwing him at cows.

What's worse is that I watched a developer interview with Peter Whatshisname, and he used the same bullturd expressions as he did when talking about the first Black and White game. That man is just overloading with crap.

"We're going to deliver something you've never seen before" and on screen is some creature, waving. yeah, cheers for that.

I found it to be quite entertaining for a day or two. Training your pet is fun for a while, and some aspects of the game are very impressive such as the destructible environments etc.

Eventually though I found it to become dull, it lacks the excitement of a normal RTS game, so once you've got over the novelty of throwing villagers over mountains, doing good deeds like finding lost children before throwing a boulder at them, and teaching your creature to throw its crap at people, it gets a bit mundane. Worth a look if you fancy something different, but it's a very, very slow game and can get tedious.

No.

Its a glorified Tamagotchi.

You feed your pet it's own excretement and stroke it all day, whilst throwing villagers around.

That's it to be honest.
