Great change imo. The new & trending tab feels a lot more useful now that it isn’t 50% demos.

    For sure. But I hope they use the Steam Demo feature (same game page with a demo install button) instead of doing a free and premium type of publishing like they do with phone apps

      It’s not just phone apps, look at this shit on a big-name Steam game:

      Calling your free trial “definitive edition” and having the “base game” as a paid DLC is purposely misleading

        I mean… Aoe3 always had some sort of a demo version. Even the original base game had it. In fact, this is actually better, as now you are able to use 3 rotating civs, not just the English and the French, which you were forced to use before.

          It’s more than fine to have a demo, just call it a demo rather than tricking people into thinking it’s the full version for free!
