I would have bought it but there was no physical release until later when Limited Run games did a limited run of the game at their premium price point. And by the time I knew Limited Run was doing a release, it was too late to get one.

Until I can do the following:

-- legally resell a digital copy of a game I bought,

-- be able to easily and legally backup and restore the digital games I've bought,

-- have legal guarantees that the digital games I bought won't be taken away from me,

my reasons for wanting physical copies are more than valid.
