it could always be a digital-only release for now, and once all content is completed and released physical copies are printed and sent out to backers.
The reaction to this would make the Curse of the Moon code situation look like nothing.  Their would be rioting.

Dracula was not always a monster. He was once a man named Mathias Cronqvist. A flawed, conflicted, genius of a man. How did the educated, aristocratic, crusader who piously served the church become a vampire, and eventually the Dark Lord himself, the opposing force to God? From a very young age terrors and tragedy shaped the man into the king of all evil. This is his story.

I hope not. I'd want to get my hands on a physical copy as well. There's way too much reliance on digital downloading nowadays, and it wouldn't be right for only the backers to get physical copies.

well, it doesn't need to be backer only, yeah. but still, that way could work, considering they're apparently planning a shovel knight style expansion release. people who got digital only for $28 get just that, and those who get physical for more get digital from get go+all the free addons as they're released, and once it's all finished and complete physical version is printed they get that too. that way they don't have to wait additional year or two to play the game, creating unnecessary hype that won't be able to live up to reality, or disappointment and tiredness from constantly delayed content.

there is literally no difference between physical and digital as far as gameplay goes, and pretty much all hardware this game's for supports such releases.

Ok, for your information, if you don't have an x box controller, you can't play the new demo. It doesn't have keyboard support, only x box controller support. The conclusion? You either spend 50 euro for an x box controller or you wait for the full game release and play it!!

Watched a full playthrough of the demo, I'm much more excited now. There is a lot of cool stuff packed in this game.

It definitely doesn't look pretty at all, but now I have no doubts this will be a meaty game in terms of content and secrets.

With so many problems, i doubt it will get released in 2018, maybe early 2019. In it's current state it just seems so unpolished.

Excited to read people’s impressions of the demo, seeing as I don’t have access to it.

Too bad about the Xbox controller-only problem. I was just spending the day working on controller support options for my own game. It can get quite tricky when it comes to supporting any kind of analog stick, as they don’t all work the exact same way. So while my cheap off-brand USB N64 controller feels right, the analog stick for the Xbox 360 controller makes the game significantly harder to control. I’m going to have to spend more time than I thought making my game compatible with any controller.

I haven't played it, but have been watching playthroughs. A few areas look rough, visually (particularly the town and the woodsy area right before the turning bridge towards the castle). Other areas look really nice. I love some of the purple and blue lighting on some of the pillar rooms, and that one dark blood moon room in the Garden of Silence looks pretty neat. The "area transition rooms" look pretty damn detailed.

Love the music. Garden of Silence's theme reminds me of SotN's Marble Gallery.

This demo looks and sounds better than the previous gameplay I've seen.

Also there's major side-boobery in that story trailer @ 1:15  ;D

Can't wait for Dominique to appear  :P
