I don't think there's ever been more game demos than there are right now, even going back to the PC shareware era. I can't even keep up with all of them on Next Fest these days, much less play any significant number of them.

Also, if your desired game is on GOG, they have a friendly return policy. That hasn't been a thing since the compact disc era started, so it's nice to have again.

We still have options.
