      There’s no need to sign into any account for a demo, they can use a time limit like the re2 remake did. Or just make the demo end at a certain point.

      It is not. It is a demo. The company demonstrates the game to you. You’re free to play it as long as you want so that you can make an informed decision afterwards.

        Okay, but that hasn’t been true basically forever. The 15-minute (less?) Resident evil 2 demo comes to mind. I remember Rollercoaster Tycoon being a timed demo too.

        Timed demos have been around forever even if you don’t like the concept.
