And 4.99€... -.-

That double-pricing will never end I suppose. I wonder whose brilliant idea was first to introduce dolar/euro equality in number while selling the games. Steam does the same, though it doesn't affect me, it is annoying for other people who live (possibly in Europe).

6.79$ in that case. Still it might be worth for it, considering the developers mentioned that they will provide the Gold DLC for free to those who have stayed with them all along and that those who bought during that time(from the August to today) will not be at a disadvantage upon the release. And they should be quite close to release considering they did not postpone the date any further.

Regardless, I believe the game evolved quite much.
