ORIGINAL: Erik Rutins Hi Johnny, I appreciate your feedback - more so than anyone though, we are looking at the market and making our decisions based on data to help our developers get the best possible results so that games like these continue to be available for all of us. It's worth noting that all of our games eventually are available at lower price points, through special promotions and other sales, but at release this is normal pricing for a wargame of this quality, depth and development cost. In any case, I understand that some folks will be unhappy with the price and I'm sorry we are unable to set a price point that works for everyone. I think it's important though that the price discussion also be informed by folks who are playing the game. I understand how it looks from the sidelines, especially when you have to fit it into your budget, but when you are playing the game it really does seem like a good deal. Regards, - Erik Thanks For the reply Erik. I really hope the game is a success - as it looks amazing. I have no doubt at some point I'll be purchasing it, just not at this price point. I appreciate where you're coming from, and the best of luck with the game. I do agree that the game most certainly could be worth $80 - or even much more! However I think the knee-jerk reaction from most new to the genre (or those with only a passing interest) will be that it's too much, and they will simply dismiss the game out of hand. Which is a shame, because it looks fantastic =(
