I was a little late downloading the Too Human demo, and really I wasn't sure if I was going to download it at all.  I have the game on pre-order and with a loot based game, there is always the feeling of playing through and then losing any progression that has been achieved.  I thought that I might just tough it out and wait until mid-August, but I just couldn't resist.

From the hour of the game I played, I found out quite a bit about Too Human.  I was really excited about the Norse mythology idea and really enjoyed how that took part in the game.  Some of it felt a little bit like Halo, with the marines following Baldur around and throwing in some lame comments from time.  Some of it felt like Diablo, with the crazy amount of loot that was being dropped and the amount of enemies that are coming all at once.  The RPG elements weren't very noticable in the demo since I was only able to make it to around level 7 before getting to the end.

The graphics weren't too shabby though there were some rough spots here and there.  This could really be noticed with the helmet style static hair and with some of the shadowing.  Some of the animations were a rough as well, especially the marines.  The framerate wasn't bad, but I was surprised to find that the in game menu seemed a bit slow as well.  The equipment page is pretty noticeable when switching between tabs and even spinning the main menu seems like a chore.  It's too bad that most of this will not get touched up before the final release.

I knew that there would be tons of different loot, but I wasn't expecting to see much of it during the demo.  I was surprised to find loads of drops, I had outfitted my character with many new pieces of equipment and weapons before the demo was finished.  I am excited to see all of the different types of items that end up in the final release copy of the game, since the pieces I had all had a unique look and interesting characteristics.

I'm looking forward to the final release of Too Human.  I like the prospect of finding crazy amounts of loot and also seeing how the storyline goes.  The demo left me just enough to want to see what the rest of the game has in store and that  is exactly what a demo should do.
