Would Penumbra: Requiem be also a Boxed version?

There are news about third Penumbra. It's called Penumbra: Requiem.

News also say that you can get it only with Download.

Do you think that it would be good to get it also as Boxed version?

Remember to give your Vote!

I think it is kind of dumb personally not to release a boxed version as I will buy it if it's boxed but I can't download it even if I wanted to.

I have the same dilemma as you. Undecided

I would prefer a boxed version. Two reasons:

1) Easier to buy and on disk.

2) People with not very good internet can get it (like me!)

If you are dying and walking towards the light, please stop. Your entering my house.

I say that everyone whose internet is not good enough to download Requiem should boycott it! What do you say?

Think about it.
The average penumbra episode is about 7 hours.
This is an expansion, which likely means it's going to be shorter.
It will likely cost $15 or so.

Since the game is short, cheap, and made by a small company you get very little profit after
-packaging
-transportation
-store profits

Since the distributer wouldn't make much money from boxing it, it isn't worth his time.

Please -REP me.
Honestly, please do. I want to see how low I can go!!
Ignore that error message too. Just ignore it and keep going to give me -rep.

Well Overture was $15. So really I suppose it comes down to whether anybody would buy it. A lot of people prefer CD's to downloads.
