Paradox Interactive Releases East India Company Demo

New York - July 31, 2009 -- Today, Paradox Interactive has released the first demo for East India Company. The demo, which sets players in the time span of 1650-1660, offers fans a great preview of the trading action and intense naval combat sure to satisfy their anticipation for the release of the strategy title. Players start with access to some ports & fleets, enabling them to immediately compete for the game’s main trading items. In addition, the demo also features two naval battle scenarios, allowing players to jump right in and try out the ocean warfare for themselves!

demo downloads without registering please.

I would very much welcome opportunities of downloading a demo without having to register first. Will there be a demo download direct from the official game site or here from paradox? If not why not?
I do not really wish to register onto yet another domain for every game I might be interested in. You simply lose track of where you are registered.
When you buy a game through download that is obviously a different matter.

Edit: you can actually download the demo without registration through the worthplaying website pending on which mirror you use. It did not work using the link from eic site but selecting downloads from worthplaying.com.

- Demo and game are unrelated. You already bought the game, good for you, you don't need the demo. The demo was meant for people that are considering buying the game, but still need some convincing.

- Sometimes, when steam doesn't let you download their product, it may be because of... oh I dunno... steam... just a thought.

The patches-scrolls link also lets you download without registration, and the link works.
