Hi Adger, good to see you again. It certainly has been a year not like any other that's for sure.
Clearly the guys involved in making this new edition of WOFF, whenever it eventually appears, will have put a hell of a lot of time and effort into it and will deserve to have that recompensed. It may well be that the new edition is an 'add on' to Platinum addition owners and pretty much a whole new game for those using Ultimate edition. This may well reflect in the pricing.
Just my take on it which seems to make sense.
