QUESTION ABOUT THE DEMO AND THE FULL VERSION OF THE GAME.

[GORYGIRL1996]

NOT TYPING LIKE THIS TO YELL: I'M VISUALLY IMPAIRED AND I USE THIS FOR MY PERSONAL BENEFIT, I KNOW THERE'S OTHER WAYS TO SE TEXT BETTER, BUT THIS IS MY WAY, PLEASE UNDERSTAND AND THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

NOW ONTO MY QUESTION, I'M THINKING OF GETTING THE FULL GAME WHEN ITS CHEAP ENOUGH HERE, AND NEEDLESS TO SAY I'M CONFUSED ABOUT SOME THINGS.

LONG STORY SHORT, I WAS TOLD BY A FEW PEOPLE THAT I WOULD HAVE TO UNINSTALL THE DEMO FOR THIS AND INSTALL THE FULL GAME ON ITS OWN, (WITCH I ALSO HEARD TAKES LONGER SADLY).

I ONCE THOUGHT THE DEMO WAS THE FULL GAME...AND AS SUCH, I THOUGHT I COULD JUST...UPDATE THE DEMO TO THE FULL GAME WITH NO ISSUE. SO THAT'S NOT THE CASE IS IT, THEY ARR BOTH THEIR OWN DOWNLOADS HUH?

SO IF THAT'S ALL THE CASE, THAT THEY ARE INDIVIDUAL DOWNLOADS, SAY I UNINSTALLED THE DEMO, AND I GO TO WHERE THE "HITMAN 3" FOLDER IS, AND IF ITS STILL THERE, DO I NEED TO REMOVE IT? TO AVOID ANY PROBLEMS DOWNLOADING THE FULL GAME? OR SHOULD I JUST LEAVE IT IN THERE AS IS?

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP EXPLAIN THIS TO ME? SO WHEN I DO BUY THE FULL GAME I AIN'T SCREWING MYSELF OVER YA KNOW? THANKS AGAIN FOR READING AND HAVE A GOOD ONE YA'LL. :)

So like most games, its advised to uninstall the demo as most demo's have hard restriction before the full game and trying to install the demo and main game, will/can cause issues
Im not sure about saves, as im still new to this game and not sure how the demo to main game works, however just buying the full game will simply allow you to get access to all the content available and so far in my experience, im having a ton of fun

The demo is the full game, it just restricts what you can play. Back when Hitman 3 came to Steam I was able to import my Hitman 1/2 content into the demo and play it there. The demo is 70 GB and the full game is 70 GB. How asinine would it be to force you to download a 70 GB demo of content you cannot play and then force you to re-download it?

THAT DOES SOUND ASININE, BUT I THOUGHT THAT'S WHAT I WOULD HAVE TO DO TO BE ABLE TO PLAY IT RIGHT? AT LEAST THEY ARE THE SAMR GB...HOLY CRAP THAT WAS A LONG ASS DAY, SO HAVING TO RE-DOWNLOAD IT WOULD BE A PAIN LOL!

I DON'T HAVE HM 1/;2 SO SADLY I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO OLD REPLAYED CONTENT...SO I SHOULD JUST BUY THE GAME AND UNINSTALL THE DEMO BEFOREHAND? AS OTHERS HAVE TOLD ME OF COURSE.

Yes, once you buy the game, make sure to fully uinstall the demo and then install the full game and you should be able to continue right where ya left off! and have access to all the other content.

Why not purchase the game with the demo installed and see if converts to the full game before you uninstall the demo? The game is not going to be messed up due to demo files.

THANK U, FOR HELPING ME CLEAR THIS UP, I THINK ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME TO UNINSTALL IT, AND TBH I DON'T WANNA RISK IT OTHERWISE DESPITE THAT OTHERS HAVE SAID IT DOESN'T MATTER. SO JUST TO BE SAFE, I WILL DO WHAT YOU SAID WHEN I GET THE GAME, SO THANKS AGAIN. :)

BUT THE QUESTION IS, HOW WILL I BE ABLE TO CONTINUE WHERE I LEFT OFF? (VIA SAVES AND HAVING ALL MY POINTS AND ALL), DOES IT SAVE THEM WHETHER I USE THE DEMO OR THE REAL GAME? HOW DOES THAT WORK IF U UNINSTALL TH DEMO STUFF?

ALSO, WILL THE GAME TAKE A LONGER TIME TO DOWNLOAD THAN THE DEMO DID? OR IS IT ABOUT THE SAME TIME AS THE DEMO? (THE DEMO TOOK FOREVER, THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING). I HEARD/READ THAT THEIR BOTH ARE 7 OR 70GB OR SOMETHING, IOS THAT RIGHT? AND IF THEY ARE THE SAME, IS THAT WHAT AFFECTS THE DOWNLOAD TIME?

The Demo download the full game on your PC.
When you buy the game, it unlocks all the content. It's not needed to uninstall and re download again because the demo and the game files are one and the same - there is no risk whatsoever.
Your save files will be on your hard drive and sync on Steam Cloud as well so you can continue to play from where you left off in the demo.

The Hitman World of Assassination demo is not a reduce version of the game - it download the full game onto your hard drive for you to fully unlock when you purchase the game.

This isn't the case with Hitman WoA demo,
When you download the demo you download the full game - same files same size.

AH I SEE, SO IF THAT'S THE CASE...WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE TELLING ME TO UNINSTALL IT THEN? SORRY AIN'T TRYING TO ARGUE OR ANYTHING, I'M JUST...REALLY CONFUSED ON THAT. IF THATS THE CASE ABOUT THE FULL GAME THOUGH...TEN THAT MAKES SINCE AS TO WHY THE DL TOOK SO LONG.

SO WHEN I BUY THE FULL GAME...WILL IT JUST...UPDATE THE DEMO TO SAID FULL GAME? OR WILL THE GAME BE ITS OWN SEPARATE OPTION TO LAUNCH?

ALSO, RANDOM SIDE NOTE I KNOW: BUT... BUT I LOVE YOUR PROFILE PIC/NAME LOL.

@GORYGIRL1996
When you purchase the game on STEAM, it will unlocks all the content that you've downloaded from the demo, allowing you to play the full game without restriction (as Sgt. Osiris mentioned also early.)

In any case, you've nothing to worry when purchasing the game as it's an automated process allowing the demo to be unlocked into the full game without the need to re-download the same content. It'll launch as Hitman World of Assassination.
