DEMO??

[walloloo]

Will there be a demo out before release?

[philaletheist]

from what i've heard, it sounds very unlikely. there's certainly not one planned as of right now.

A demo would be cool tho

Yeah it would, I like demos to get excited for the game I think it's great publicity in a simplistic form, but also I like to try it before I commit.

I agree, I would prefer a demo so I can tell if it's going to be something I am willing to pay for or not. Will have to hold off and wait for some youtubers that I trust to do a review or a let's play.

If there isn't demo I just won't buy it until a big discount honestly.

I would also like a demo. Though I'm not sure how a sandbox sim can be sufficiently cut down so that the devs don't end up basically giving the game for free. Maybe there'll be a limit on how many in-game days you can play.

Probably the best way is a choices on a pre built character, and a tutorial around a pre built house. Im sure it would be a pain to make but personally im hesitant on buying a game like this, steam lately has a lot of games that have just gone dead or havent matched up to promises so we will see.

this is one of those game that xploit steams 'comming soon' tag. games that does this in 90% of the cases ends up as a flop or nothing. sadly. i had hopes for this games when i was young

It will release in early access first, so no. Maybe once the game is actually out, but they'll likely just be focusing on getting everything polished during early access.
You can always buy the game and play for up to 2 hours, then refund if you don't like it. Steam has a no quibbles refund policy for 2 hours of play within 14 days. Though if you're doing that, I wouldn't recommend buying it in early access, that time will still count. Early access is essentially a paid beta.

Perhaps put out the character creator early?

I think it's a good idea to do this with any game which includes character creation. Helps increase hype without giving too much away.

I wish I could say this wasn't true, but in some cases it really is. I have been watching Masquerades II - "coming soon" since 2019...

The worst enemies of Paralives are their fans with their unrealistic expectations.

Sorry, what unrealistic expectations have I demonstrated here? And how is hoping for a demo of CC going to sink the game?

Your quoting me was confusing, then. I still don't think wanting a demo is an unrealistic expectation though, and nobody here is wanting more than that.
