Sigh, you just won't let it up. If you think the demo sucks, you are consuming your own braincell. You are entitled to your opinions! Stand by it!

I don't find BD and D2 similarly, and I am stand by it. So don't waste breath trying to persuade me. So you find BD and D2 almost the same? Well, good!


LOL. You don't understand. This IS the suggestions forum RIGHT?? I'm not just stating an opinion. I'm also hinting at something that needs to be done.
Don't worry I won't persuade you, but I hope someone else who makes a difference does listen.

Yes and yes! Modify some game files and cut and paste great events in a sequence. This game uses a tileset it appears so the devs could simply copy/paste rooms+content. Maybe link different rooms and scenes through area transitions.
This kind of thing should be pretty easy to do really.


Shall be, but as a programmer myself, not as easy as one may think. I don't know what tools they used though.

I think they had better polish the demo up (and chapter1 of the full version I suppose), even if it'll cost additional resources.

>I'm suggesting now that they do a better demo.

Other game companies have done that before, so it's not without precedent or merit.
I'm a nice guy with great interest in crpgs and i think I've been pretty mild in my judgement sofar. Game reviewers will not be as forgiving as me. Casual gamers who DL the demo are worse.
Hardcore fans praising the demo without any critique, are not sending the right message to the developers.
It needs improvement. if a 160mb DL won't suffice make it a 250mb, one or cut the into music and some SFX including spoken dialogue, but a good demo has to show more actual content!

DD was well received by everyone, so I can't believe BD will be bad, but the current demo does make it seem so. And that IS bad.
