@athene I don't think i said anything about it being anyone's fault - it's just math. If everything looks good to you in those numbers then that's great, you can ship your game and smile as you pay the fees. If the publisher deal looks bad to you then don't take it, self-publish!

@mogwai_poet that song is actually an older Otis Redding soul song! Very popular for covers though

@3psboyd I really honestly do not believe this is possible

@jplebreton Congratulations!
