You also have to sell a lot more boxes to make it worth anything in comparison to online. Online the developer can get anything from 50% to even over 90% of the money that the customer pays. When you purchase a retail copy, there are so many parties that are to be paid, so the developer gets perhaps 10%-30% in the end.
Considering FG has to constantly keep an eye on its budget, I'm not surprised. But it certainly would be great if you'd found a trustworthy retail publisher for Amnesia one day...
