[QUOTE="Taleweaver, post: 6777393, member: 237261"] I have mixed opinions on this. The obvious "a demo serves to get a taste of the gameplay so you can decide the game is good for you, so this practice undermines that principle" is already said, and a valid concern... ...assuming that the demo is strictly defined as being just about THAT. And I don't mean to be cynic, but for a lot of franchises you've got plenty of earlier games that will show you how the last entry will (more or less) play. The preorder, early access, open betas and so on serve something different: the fact that you can be among the FIRST to play a game. And seen in that light, this "get the demo after preordering" isn't as stupid as it sounds at first glance. My only real question is if that means they're going to stock demo's full of antipiracy measures as well? [/QUOTE]
