Releasing a demo for someone like me isn't not really about whether or not I would buy the game, but what console I would buy it for, getting a REAL personal feel for both the Console and PC version of the game would really help in that regard.

Understandable but at the same time giving out a demo to everyone, which is what happens with a demo, is just bad for business. Bioware and EA want to see good sales figures and demos have to be utterly fantastic to increase sales and more often than not they decrease sales.

As was mentioned, there are no current plans for a demo. Unfortunately, RPGs tend to demo quite poorly, since the breadth of a game like this with so much content and options that it is hard to show off the game properly in a cut down demo. For example, I look at the comparative reactions to the ~2 minute DA videos on Monday, to the much longer gameplay demos on Tuesday (and today for that matter). I saw many frustrated reactions to the 2 minute one, and then the same people be much happier upon viewing the longer gameplay. Demos are much the same way.

 

How about at least a pre-release Character Creator?

oh yeah totally, a demo are many resources and money. But I do hope there will be a Character creator instead, that'd be sweet.

I'm not sure how much I agree with this.

 

I mean, all I really want is a decent taste of what the combat will feel like. I don't need to see the skill customization, or equipment stuff- just a nice, long fight scene to sink my teeth into.

Yeah, a character creator would be nice.

Bravely Default had an amazing Demo, if DA:I did something along those lines I'd be happy.
