Default Re: Should I listen to the review or buy it anyway?

The only reason I haven't bought Space HoRSE yet is that my computer doesn't meet the minimum specs for it.

I get the impression that that reviewer has no concept of the manufacturing cost of software. Shrapnel's production runs are bound to be smaller than the "big" publishers, so they can't get the same economies of scale. I doubt that even the largest publisher in the industry could turn a profit on a $10 retail price.

Too many gamers whine about the cost of the hobby anyway; they don't seem to realize that games are a luxury item.
