I don't necessarily believe they didn't get enough money since they started SHIV:hmm: ...

The economical reason, to my view, was "enough free patch now, user will have to pay for the further improvements" and they started what became now SH4 (don't forget that initially SH4 was supposed to be an expansion pack for SH3).

That's a bit unrealistic. Simulation games will always appeal. Let's admit it though, eye candys improve the whole thing a lot. Otherwise we all should be playing Dangerous Waters (my favourite, but with abysmal graphs). It's the graphics that require a lot of work to get it right. Plus you need some brilliant minds to create realistic AIs, then wrap the whole package and optimise for the casual gamer with his budget PC. |
I really hope you will be right, I love simulation games !
