I agree with the OP and I have good news:
At some point Raze has confirmed that the game uses the DnD equipment, not the DOS system.
The number of items in the demo seemed very large, this could still change. ( I hope so)
He also said that they added a lot health potions and such stuff to the demo because you could not save/load.
Sorry, I do not find his post at the moment, but it is somewhere in this forum.
