Re: SE4\'s Value
For myself, compare the purchase price of SEIII and SEIV vs years of enjoyment? Don’t even have to do the math to figure out this equation; but I will add two more:
For the years that the SEIII kept me sane at work-priceless
Two summers ago, my son, who was 8 at the time, was enjoying my SEIV demo. “Dad, I want to get the full version”. Mostly, he wanted to be able to open and close warp points like we could on SEIII. “Alright,” I replied, “Figure out a way to earn some money and I’ll split the cost with you.” That summer, mostly by pulling weeds, he earned his money a little bit at a time by doing odd jobs. Even if we never touch the game again, the lesson he learned that summer in planning and working for what he wanted will be worth far more than any monetary “value” assigned to a game.
