I think it is more expectations. It's got the retro FFVI graphics but done in 3D, still retro though. People expect retro styled games to be at a discount. I suspect I will get the game at some point, I was quite excited about it, but I never even considered that it would be a full priced game because it looks like a 3D version of a 16 bit game. I just assumed it would be like $30 bucks the entire time I knew about it and then when I realized it was gonna be twice that cost I was like ok no way in hell I'm paying twice what I expected to pay. So for me I'll wait until its discounted to pick it up. I'm not a graphics whore at all and think that people still are obsessed with graphics these days when every single system has unbelievable graphics is crazy, but my expectation for a retro styled game is that it will be cheaper. No doubt the game is worth more than plenty of other $60 games, but in terms of presentation it looks like a (REALLY COOL) retro indie style game, so the expectation from the presentation of the game is that it should cost like $30-$40.
