Thank you.

Nice

Thanks for the answer, will have to try the demo. Had looked forward to the release since I enjoyed Mafia II, but the reviews have relegated it to wait-for-a-big-sale status. Although I completely disagree with the trend of reviews often enough that I should probably just stop reading them.

That depends on multiple factors.

Firstly, it depends on if/when the combat grows on me. From what I've experienced of it so far, it felt clunky and unintuitive. But when I re-work the keybinds and accrue more experience, I may feel completely different. I do hope so.

Secondly, the price. I seldom pay full price but with the upcoming Summer sale, I'd wager a 50% discount is possible, possibly more. Even at that price, I'd be hesitant.

To go off on a tangent, I have always loved demos. Because for me, they feature a tiny no-strings-attached portion of the game to play as you see fit. Some, I played for months on end when I was younger. I used to want to get home as quickly as possible to play my AoE: I/II demos. This was a long time ago. Maybe it's just looking through time with a nostalgic lens but I kind of miss those days.

Oh and thank you

Awesome screen
Do you think you will purchase it after trying the demo?

It's really an amazing thing to have screenshot tools (thanks to Otis) for a demo and the demo providing access to the open world. It's a large download but totally worth it.
