Not directly related to the interview, but thought you'd all like to know. 

medierra: Also, we’re nearing 5m copies sold now for GD and all DLC

Not bad for a game whose initial sales target was 200,000.   ;D

Its very good no doubt.

I also read what medierra said during the times of TQ creation. Its kinda of sad seeing that kind of reasons to not implement / advancing the original ideias, wich looked great.

Don't really know.  Over a million back in 2008, but since then?  Anybody's guess.  I was still seeing disc copies of the game on sale here in Switzerland up to a couple of years ago when the stores stopped selling PC games.

So no more games in Swiss stores, only online?

They just sell console games now.   :(  Pretty much the same in the UK now I think about it.  Curry's/PC World don't sell PC games any more and neither do Game.  Mediea Markt here used to sell them, but they've shrunk in size so they only do consoles now.  FNAC might still sell them, but it's been a while since I went into one of their stores.
