I just finished de shareware line, considering i own avernum 4 and avernum 1 EFTP, I found the Avadon engine pretty nice, i see better graphics, and the game itself has changed a little bit, the mages can use a staff to fire stuff and it does not consume mp, i see that if you enter a store or special room its a different map for it. the resolution played can be chosen. players recover hp while moving

 

I can chose whom to company me, wich i find pretty nice, and my party could not be compatible between them, and they chat in certain parts of the story wich is cool.

 

I do like the way the abilitites are chosen for each class, depending on what you really like in a player.

 

I do find the shareware line too short, i feel that if they showed a bit more of the game it would be better, and people would be more eager to buy it

 

Anyway i buy the game tomorrow. I wanna see more!! :)

The demos of SW games have definitely been getting shorter over time. Jeff's written about this in his blog: if he makes the demo too big, a significant fraction of players will just decide that the demo is enough content to satisfy them and never get around to buying the full game. Surveys across the game industry consistently show that the majority of gamers (over 80%) rarely finish games that they buy, so the later in the game you put the demo endpoint, the more of those players will never play far enough to reach it.
