Sometimes I wonder to myself: why pay in advance? Why can’t we get back our money because something is not good as we thought it would be?
You pirated an ebook? You can buy it after reading if you enjoyed it.
A game? Same.
And so on.
I like that indie games are bringing demos back. Like actually playable demos, not like a tech demo, the first 1-5 levels, so you can get a proper feel for the game before you shell out. 6 of the last 9 demos I played in the past year resulted in me purchasing the game.
