Thanks for the suggestion, but I have already played Gothic I, so I guess it will be in the same vein. Gothic I was not amongst my favorite games, but I enjoyed it enough to play the others.

The second reason why I don't download demos, is that during my university years I stopped playing games completely, so I am very late (the most recent game I ever played was Baldur's Gate II.) So if I try the demos before I buy the games, by the time I get to Gothic III, the game won't be in stores anymore. And since I don't have much time to play, I want to spend it on a complete game. (As you can guess, I'll probably play Gothic III in about 5 years.)

The advantage of being so late, is that I always wait when games are cheap and are released with their extensions (Gold, Platinum Editions, etc.) before I buy them. So the worst thing that can happen here is that I lose $20.

By the way, the next game on my list is FF VIII. I'll probably play it in October if I can get my vacations. I think that is a choice you will approve.
