Alright, so, as much as I want to try this game, the demo fails in so many basic technical regards. Firstly, in my dual-monitor setup, the game launches on my left monitor (my primary is my second and I've never had a game fail to start on it). Perhaps as a result of this, I couldn't actually click any of the buttons on the main menu with the mouse. The game also turned mouse-acceleration on my system mouse.

Annoying on so many of the most fundamental levels. Sadpanda.
