I think they're trying to reassure potential gamers that they have a chance of finishing development of the game and of being able to support a decent user base. That being said, has anyone actually released anything using HeroEngine? I see a couple of awards for it and some games in development, but nothing that's been released. If someone knows more about HeroEngine, I'd definitely like to hear it. Otherwise, I'm not really impressed with the decision.
