I'm in, just pre-ordered.

I pre-ordered on day 1.

also pre-ordered. First time ever.

I pre-ordered mine earlier this week.

So I guess we'll be getting our copies sometime in June, but if Illwinter needs more time to add more content or fix bugs or add a new feature that's totally fine.

Yes, please don't release a broken product. We've been through that with other products released on the mass-market recently.

That's good to know!

yet we have to pay more by May 20. That's really gay.

NICE WORK! damn shrapnel. Being over $50 is really pushing it. Not even the highest budget games goes over that, but they know us fans will pay it. That really pisses me off. F*** you shrapnel.

Shrapnel Games stays in business, and continues selling games. They have to keep high prices. Have you read their blogs?

Those are more about games being sold on the shops than games sold on the Gamer's Front (or was it Gamers' Front?), but they still points out some interesting things.

Ok, I read all 3 to a pretty good extent, and I understand that niche games are hard to sell... so you're saying Dominions III is hard to sell so they had to push the price over the common limit? That's not very justifiable if the pre-orders are breaking its record, unless they are trying to make up for lack of sales elsewhere... but the blogs never said anything about that.

Hey, all I know is that I wouldn't even be complaining if they gave us mnore time to pre-order at a lesser price. "Pre-order for a reduced price" they say... yet in a few days it will just say "pre-order now!"
