On: Introducing the Humble Store

[nostromo]

I think this is the nature of any "deals" service. It requires novelty, but that's short-lived. The same thing happened with Groupon and Woot.

I'm still rooting for HumbleBundle however, because I like that they give the spotlight to small game developers and raise money for good causes.

See, I think they transitioned (or I just didn't realize the truth at first). Initially it was a charity/publicity play, there wasn't even any talk of having a "Humble Bundle 2". But then someone somewhere decided to try to turn the model into a business.
