Re-release the demo.

[z4v3k]

Why even remove it in the first place...

[patrixilentius]

This. I just came here to install it and it was gone. Guess I waited too long... But still, no reason to remove it, especially since the full game isn't even out yet.

you're just capping. I have the demo in my library with 15 hours played and I don't have access to it any longer.

Haha, gotta love DRM. Ain't it beautiful, they treat you like a Fuqn child. They tell you what/where/when to consume.

Cuz it's outdated. It's not gonna be a fair representation. They've changed a good bit based on the closed door feedback.

Bit of an overreaction since the demo was available a full two months longer than was initially planned...

The demo is DRM-free, just run it directly from LOP-Win64-Shipping.exe.

Bruh I never played souls like games and I wanted to try demo before getting the game. So I installed it couple days ago and only could get to it today but it's gone looooooooool what

[Dr. Frasier Crane]

Same.
I want to know if the price is justified.

I think it would be very good if a game's demo stayed up forever.
The only thing about is that the demo has stay up to date after every normal update the main game gets. So it would cost them extra maintenance to keep a demo up indefinitely.

The reason why this specific demo is gone even though the game isn't out yet is because the game has already been tweaked based on user feedback. So the demo was already outdated and didn't showcase the game they were selling anymore.

They kept the demo up because people were enjoying it and they wanted to thank people for the awards they got.

My guess is that they are afraid of people showing demo gameplay 2 weeks before release that may scare off potential buyers. Apparently the dodge mechanics and block windows were controversial.

I played the Demo for 30hrs and IF you love darksouls or Elden Ring or Bloodborne you will love Lies of P . To me it reminds me of Bloodborne the most .. So if you are Familair with the games I listed , then Imagine bloodborne play style but With a Mix of Resident Evil (Watch the Developer Vid at the top of Lies of P steam store and when they go from killing evil robots to zombie type people n creatures u would see in RE u will see my point.. I think this is gonna be a big hit aside from the Starfield hype ..

Damn, wanted to download it and see how well my pc can run it, a shame, guess im waiting till its cracked.

Is it removed? What's the point to release a demo that was available only for such short period of time?

It was supposed to be removed weeks ago.
They extended the time....

Now it is close to release and the demo was outdated.
