Which really isn't the best representation of the game, I think. Then again, I was hooked into it from the atmosphere from the get-go, but yeah, if you're on the fence about the gameplay, the demo doesn't show it off too well. It gets way better because you have way more choices about how you go about things than the first level.
Oh yeah that's really nothing, The Wharf is basically just a tutorial. Although it does let you experience some of the graphics, music, and a tiny bit of gameplay, Bastion is one of those games in which the story is more than just a walking stick, it's like an entire backbone, and one of the things that makes it great. In the demo the story's barely started. So yeah, the demo really only shows half of the game, if not less.
