It's Thursday and the Age of Decadence Demo is finally out! W00t!

In case anyone's wondering why I'm not working on my mods at the moment, there's your answer. :P

EDIT - updated download link.

Could you post a couple of lines on how it went with the demo, what it feels like compared to games we know etc.? I'm so busy right now that I don't have the time to play this.

Hadn't heard of this before today, but just gave the demo a whirl and had a good time :) If I had to compare it to other games (all, what, 8 of them I've played), I guess I'd go with a mix between Planescape Torment (it's wordy, and, hurrah, combat isn't necessary!) and Skyrim (quite non-linear). Looks-wise, perhaps Temple of Elemental Evil?

There's loads of stat-checks, which I absolutely love. No companions or anything like that (as far as I'm aware), and the town you start in doesn't feel that interactive. The combat is ridiculously difficult (which I think is a plus, because it just means you have to AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS, like real life, but others might not agree). You're punished for acting stupidly, so you have to think about what you're doing carefully. So yeah... fun! I'd buy it.
