Would love to hear peoples experiences with any of the demos out for this Next Fest.

A standout for me is Sea of Stars, and it seems the demo runs perfectly so far!

Let's collect some recommendations here for others to join in

I realize it's a demo but I thought about it more and I realized that, at least in the demo version (which is only the very early game), there's a particular play style that is better. For a game designed to let you build to your play style, it seems to really gear you towards a faster, more mobile, parry heavy play style. Tanking isn't viable, and the heavier weapon set leaves you too slow and unable to recover against aggressive enemies like the second boss. Hoping that's not the case for the full game, plenty of other games have OP early bosses (wo long immediately comes to mind) and balance issues before release. It's got way more positive things going for it than negative so far.
