Nice

What a time to be a gamer!
Offering demos is a hook to drive sales!

It's Xanadu Next time! I'm also considering rebuying all the Falcom stuff I have on Steam to truly own them free of DRM and other such nonsense.

Side note, I always find the term “free demo” to just sound weird to me. Aren’t demoes supposed to be free or did I miss something?

 

[raxadian]

People actually pay for demos?

How 90s.

 

[BitMasterPlus]

And thus, gamer's wallets started to quiver in fear.

Also, demo's should be free regaurdless.

Who really bothers with demos anymore, anyway? Don't we all have gigantic backlogs that will probably keep us busy until we die? Why download a 3 GB demo for an hour or two of gameplay when in a few months you can buy the full game for five bucks and then never download or play it at all?

demos... okay, i guess...

You know the pandemic is getting to you when...

... Walking simulators start to sound like interesting games.

Side note, I always find the term “free demo” to just sound weird to me. Aren’t demoes supposed to be free or did I miss something?

Erm... On a technical level, you're absolutely right. But with so many video games being out there, marketing is everything.
Allow me to demonstrate...

Me : 'hey guys! My upcoming 'hello world' project is now live. Here's a demo that will output 'hello' to your screen.
Gbatemp : *yaaaaaawn*

Alternative me : guys! Here's an exclusive sneak peak of my upcoming mystery project codenamed 'awesome sauce'. There'll be a temporary 100% discount on the early access beta project, so if you're willing to step up to the task of being an exclusive tester I might just grant you access before the lesser gamers can get their pawns on it.
Gbatemp : OMG OMG OMGGGGGGGGeeeeee!!!

I clearly remember many kids being scammed by being sold cheap CDs with "games" that all turned to be demos and shareware back in the 90s.

To be honest after GOG rolled over for the CCP and backtracked on selling Devotion I've little interest in supporting them.

Xinnie the Pooh can suck it.
