Yes, you need an account.

No, it is free.

Do yourself a favour, download the client and sign up.

No it doesn't cost anything, there are no fees like some of the more fanatical nutjobs around here might claim

Of course, the demo actually has to be up for this to matter...

- Civs 1-3 werent even on steam.
- Some members havent been around for a while and came back for Civ5.
- Lots of non-civ forums here at CFC.

You need Steam Digital Rights Management Software to try out the free demo. I guess they need to protect the free demo against piracy?

With a 4GB size, it's gonna take a while to d/l. Steam speeds are sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow, and choppy.

Not going soft on your hard line vs. Steam, are you? You sound almost like you're seeking information about it and considering trying the demo.

Hm, will the demo eventually be available outside steam?
I don't really want to get a steam account just to dl this.
