If Mojang had said "this is all it will be" the game itself would still have justified the price. Maybe some people did buy it under the pretense of investment or that it was contractually going to improve or whatever. Did he put somewhere that "please buy so we can hire more people to work on it?"<br /><br />And, personally, the fact that only two guys work on it is part of the reason <i>why</i> I was inclined to buy it. In an age of $100+ million AAA titles with photo-realistic graphics, that I spent 50+ hours (and counting) on Minecraft for a fraction of those full-priced games is inspiring in general, and especially good for the legitimacy of the indie game scene.Azurielhttp://inanage.comnoreply@blogger.com
