Quoted from thewool:The thing that I just don't understand at the moment... their company is in the shit, money is flying out the door to refund people in order to save what little of their reputation is left. So what do they do, hike up the UK price by about 3k over the initial pre-order price?! Surely the obvious move is to encourage more orders in the short term, not drive people away?
I understand the tactic in that they need all the money they can get - but how is that going to keep the company afloat past Alien?
Merely a theory but I suspect their costs went up and that price is the only profitable way to sell a game. Sales are only good if you profit on them.
