yes but thats the point. It's not perfect because it costs that much, there is no line in the sand that "this is the engine everyone needs and everything else is junk" there is a good point and a bad point to every engine, unreal being it accessiblity/cost, torque being its license and cost and up until recently, Unity's platform/cost. A7's bad point is it's easy of use, it's not a click together program like everyone expects, and yes, don't go on and on about how it "used to be focused on that" everyone gets it and has mentioned it, its not a artist tool anymore.
