The article doesn't have any revelations, but is on my line of thought. Breaking the publisher Cycle may be the way to success. Which means publishing will have to change more and be more cost efficient.

I used to love pcpowerplay and was a frequent reader, but RPS has since taken over for me.

Congrats Desura. This is definitely the approach I've been hoping you guys would take for a long time. Glad to see the press finally caught on!

Definitely I'd love Desura to take over from where Kickstarter left off because I trust this company.. I don't trust Amazon. And I feel that at least if Desura controls it, the money comes back into not only the industry, but also Australia.

If we can make this network big, it'll be the best thing ever, many Australian developers need this to succeed. The kickstarter fad is coming to an end, now its time to make this thing much bigger than it started, its time to finally take back our damn industry!

I can only hope we hear a lot more from the press on Desura.
