My point was that Malfador and Shrapnel have acted very differently from what seems to have become standard practice in the entertainment software industry.
The computer game industry regards the software it pumps out in much the same way as movie house does its movies. Get'um out the door, ASAP, on budget, get your money, { Yes! Yours}, in the first few weeks or months then, forgeddabowdit.
"Bugs! Yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll get ya one or two patches ta shut ya up. Just wait until ya buy the next Version! You'll love it! It'll be way better.
You'll cream for it."
I am not saying this is wrong, just making an observation.
On the other hand, there still are a few odd companies that regard their software as PRODUCTS, products to be developed and improved and refined based on feedback from their customers, rather then merely "events".
Malfador and Shrapnel both seem to fall into that less common catagory. I like that.
I am,therefore, not opposed to rewarding them with more of my hard earned dollars if they continue to do this.
Whether or not it's via an "expansion" of SE4 or SE5, I'll buy it.
I'm probably going to buy Malfadors dungeon crawl also. The only thing that's been holding that purchase off is I didn't have time to allocate to playing it. When that changes, and it will, I'll order it.
Yes, I am a very satisfied customer. I have spent more play time and feel I have received more value for dollar from the SE4 product then any other game-event I've purchased in the Last 3 to 5 years.
