We've been in the position of Fez's creator, and it pains me to say, we made the same choice as him (except for the drama) but... the $40k figure is way, way off. I have no idea how Tim Schafer came to it, or rather, how he was misinterpreted (because the man is obviously NOT an idiot).

Way off is kinda unhelpful, is it way more expensive or way cheaper?

As a guess, I'd say it varies depending on a few factors such as the scale of the game, the changes introduced, etc.

For us it was way cheeper. Still a shocking amount for a small studio. I'm not aware of any "pricing structure", or if there is any; I heard the number we were supposed to pay.
