Hi, Арсений! I got my information from Russia, since I am Russian And I wrote about outsourcing. It is a well-know practice since 90's. What bothers me is that just 5 years ago we had a number of working development houses. Today almost every company switched to either outsourcing or online gaming. 2/3 of КРИ-2012 is dedicated to Игры.mail.ru! Combined with business/political state, as you wrote, that's not very encouraging. But also not a bad thing I guess. What confuses me, is how Signus is planning to develop a non-casual game. You need at least a fully-functional engine for that.
