Game does not disappoint. Demo was amazing.

Had to quit the demo tbh. Felt really sick, what was with all the blurring when the camera turns. Appears to be something not quite right... Other than that, it looked amazing when you were standing still, lol

Graphics are good, story is good, but Game play boring. Just spam attack button and hit the dodge button every so often. Dont get me started on the ridiculously long time limit they give you on the telegraph prompts. There is no strategy needed and its way to easy. Spam to win.
What happened to the Square Enix of old? Now it just seems they want a story and visuals more than exciting gameplay.

So my overall opinions of the demo are very positive. Great early story, beautiful visuals, slick controls and combat (though I still prefer FF7 Remake's more unique "hybrid" combat). The game is breathtakingly cinematic and the Eikon kaiju fights will really add something.

Unfortunately, the early part is so story heavy that I didn't sink my teeth into the gameplay nearly as much as I'd like, and I hope that the balance of gameplay vs. cinematics improves later. 

Game is definitely a buy, but I won't be doing so at full price. It's hard to justify it these days, and especially not directly adjacent to a value behemoth like Diablo 4.
