I reinstalled the demo just today and........IT WORKS! Finally! All I had to do was adjust the DirectX slider all the way to basic acceleration. The game will tend to pause at certain parts where its supposed to crash if you left the DirectX slider at full/standard acceleration but will not crash. Jeez.
Anyway, I'm not jumping for joy over this one.
Feels like some Diablo clone or some sort when I played it. And as what some people have stated, I'd rather go play some other game than this one.
