I just posted this on the Steam boards (https://steamcommunity.com/app/311310/discussions/1/1457328392105335856/):
I agree that a trial or some kind of limited free account would be great.
I have some friends that play this but the cost is just a bit too steep for buying this kind of game without at least trying it a little bit first.
Until then maybe I could arrange trying it at a friends place or something but most are distant online friends so I'm not sure it will be easy.
I understand this might not be first priority during early access but I had to say it.
Edit: The Steam refund option is there i guess but the two hour deal is so limiting.
Some kind of in-game progress limitation would be way better I'm sure.
Maybe a 14 day limitation might be required to avoid usernames being locked or something but I'd like to add that IMO any really strict limitation on in-game progress and stuff would be vastly preferable to a shorter unlimited trial like 3-7 days. It's just annoying to be forced to play a ton in a short time. For instance with a 2+ weeks trial i could make sure to spend some time playing with my friends on two weekends instead of trying to maximize my trial experience over a few days on weekdays.
Edit: The code block was a bad choice because it didn't add automatic row breaks but i can't figure out how to get rid of it so i can replace it with text outside a code block, so i'll just add a bunch of row breaks.
