If I was a developer of the game I would say “well, that was working as intended, this clearly wasn’t the game for you”.

If I was a bean counter, however, I would say to axe the demo and add some micro transactions to the game. It’s a bad idea to let people try it beforehand and make their own decision on whether the game is good or not. Clearly we haven’t traded enough goodwill of our players, excuse me, customers, in exchange for some short term profits.
