All of those people who are mentioned (most of them, anyway) didn't work for free.

Just to give you an idea: If I recall correctly, Charlie took ALL the money he made from working on a game and poured it in to NS development. He hired professional voice actors in a professional studio... (<a href='http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0591115/' target='_blank'>Lani Minella</a> did the comm voices.), hired <a href='http://www.jeremysoule.com' target='_blank'>JEREMY FREAKING SOULE</a> to do the music AND paid for servers. He also took it to mod expos and LANs, which costs travel money... ALL of this came out of his OWN POCKET. He paid for <i>everything</i> without any sponsors. So yes, NS cost between $10,000 and $30,000 to make. That's not that much, if you think about it. Most lower-grade games cost around $100,000 to $1,000,000+.

Actually I do, well not me personally but I have looked up prices as I said early. It was $50 a month for a high bandwidth website, so you figure about double that for a site like this and the downloads. Then the server costs.. like $400 a month, that adds up I suppose. And that's your fault you didn't want sponsered.

I believe they had to purchase the rights to a big library of sounds. Add that to the voice acting and the music. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

Magic, don't you have anything positive to say? Or can you even admit when you're wrong? You've not been stating any facts, just your boorish and uninformed opinions. And when your ignorance is shown, you change the subject. Be quiet, you offer nothing.
