Quite weak, considering how almost every month there has been extra discounts...
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, it appears to be 15% discount in Euro zone.
Which sounds like a bad deal, seeing how usually you could snatch 2 euro discount without much problems, which would be 20% discount...
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, I've brought only 4 months this year and twice 6€, one 7€ and the last 4.5€ so besides not wasting in weak months, it is cheaper.
I would say it's only worth for someone that uses humble library the whole year.
No to mention if it's another weak year like 2022 where I've only got 1 month.

It's about $8 a month, hardly weak, and guaranteed.

Considering how many people actually skip months... I think they mean that it's not a substantial discount to get them buying the bundle they don't really want to begin with. Like a comment before said they bought 4 bundles this year, it's hard to sell 12 months to somebody who wants 1/3 of it, at a discount. When I had month to month sub, I barely got coupons because I bought basically all months. 20% discount to get the same, and not having to jiggle cancellation/pause dates, claiming games before deadlines and possibly still not getting coupons is not a bad deal for me.

It's 45% off, right? If a month is usually $12 and some people get some offers for a few dollars off, a guaranteed rate of $8 is great. You can also skip months with this.
Comment has been collapsed.
I missed some parts of the calculation, like the annual sub is already discounted compared to buying individual months.
Full price is 10€ here, and I can get the an annual deal any time for 109€ instead of 12*10=120€
Buying it with the coupon makes it cost 93€ - so it's a 16€ extra deal for signing up now, and an overall 22.5% discount compared to buying it month-by-monthy. (7.75€ instead of 10€).
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll definitely snack that. It's 93€ for me, so 7,75€ per month. That's a good deal for me and what I get, plus the option to skip if I don't like it for that price.

Still living off my annual membership from 3 years ago, which I'm pretty sure I got for less. Only used 5 out of 12 months so far 😄
I guess since you always have the flexibility to skip monthly, it could be a decent offer if you don't have any ongoing membership, but otherwise it doesn't sound like you're saving much.

I've been getting month end coupons for around 6/7$ i think so think it's a skip for me.
Comment has been collapsed.
if I am going to pick them up anyways... might as well get some form of discount.
I don't like trying to bank on getting coupons.
Comment has been collapsed.
same I also always get the yearly discount just for convenience sake

I've been on a monthly subscription since 2019. Aside from having a discount of £3-4/month do you get additional benefits? I get the 20% on purchases.
Comment has been collapsed.
Bear in mind, the 20% off only works if you buy/activate the choice every month.
As for the other question - no other benefits.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, that's exactly what I've been doing for the past few years. I mean, getting it cheaper a little is not a bad deal.
Comment has been collapsed.
I agree that sometimes you don't get the best deal, but I got that 20% on new released games while Steam was offering 10%. It's good then. I've also found other deals, but it's not always the most useful thing in the world, but it adds up on top of the sale if that's the case.

I don't know how old you've been in the game, so I suspect you know how Humble has been before 2019. I've just discovered it then and ever since then I've been increasing my library all the time.

I think you need to add that users can buy subscription for up to 2 years (24 choices).

How does this work? As I can't buy it for myself, If I buy it as a gift can I activate it myself later? Do I have to make another account then gift it to that account?
Comment has been collapsed.
thank you, got it. can't November be skipped anymore?
Comment has been collapsed.
you can skip. Just activate gift subscription next month
Comment has been collapsed.
i didnt chose it as a gift, anyway already activated few keys and created the giveaways for the rest, thanks for your reply
Comment has been collapsed.
ah.. so your question was about 2nd copy of November's choice if you'll redeem gift right now? No, you'll not get the same Choice second time, you will receive +12 tokens/choices on your account.

Nah, not worth the investment with only that small discount, I'll probably keep pausing anyway.
Comment has been collapsed.
I still have the year-long sub I got more than 3 years ago .... So many pauses ....
Comment has been collapsed.
I still have half the credits from last year's promo
Comment has been collapsed.
I've only used two credits since last year's deal.
Comment has been collapsed.
So it's basically $8 and change per month. I'm not opposed to this.
Comment has been collapsed.
Im conflicted. I haven’t paused this year and now have 20% choice discount, which is nice. But it’s $10 more than last year and coupons almost always go out (but they’re still a gamble).
Comment has been collapsed.
that or cancel every month as soon as you get it and get the 6$ coupon 72$+ you can jus tnot buy any month you want
Comment has been collapsed.
how you can make it? I tried is last 4 months in different time interval and get only 1€ off everytime.
Comment has been collapsed.
I assume they gave you 1€ off when you've tried to pause. I got only once such offer.
Just pause, answer why you want to pause (I assume answer counts while they choose users who will receive coupons) and wait. Last 2 times I've paused right after new Choice was reviled and got $8, $7 and $6 coupons during the month.
Comment has been collapsed.
did you wait until the last week of the month? they send better deals each week
did you cancel every month? cancel right away and the reason for cancel is costs 2 much
Comment has been collapsed.
yes, till last hour.
When I pause, I dont get any offer.
I have to cancel to get 1€ off right on cancel. And even I canceled it right from start, no better offer comes.
Comment has been collapsed.
why you have multiple accounts, ive never needed them tho
could also be they know im poor as fuck and wont buy it any other way
Comment has been collapsed.
what do you mean multiple accounts?
Im poor too, but I can afford it thou.. you have a point. Capitalists, they took all money..
Comment has been collapsed.
u dont always get coupons though so if u are someone that just gets them every month getting a yearly discount is better
Comment has been collapsed.
Cheaper to buy per month with coupons, no thanks Humble
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank-you for the heads up. This offer may be good for some. I haven't had a coupon in years (maybe its regional). I occasionally check and its something like a 25% off Shadow Warrior 2, no emails.
Comment has been collapsed.
does this only apply to new accounts or do current subscribers get the same offer as well?
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm maybe i will take it
What is the coupon people talking about ? when i use the cancel button for a month i got rarely a discount not every time maybe 1/6 ... it's with the ign stuff ? but for ign the coupon are for new accounts right ?
Comment has been collapsed.
That people would get a coupon to get the current Choice cheaper then the normal price, it's not for other bundles.
I dunno, i never received one but i used to redeem Choice every month up until 3 months ago and skipped 3.

IGN Humble Choice Coupon only for New Members aka accounts for Humble Bundle, but once again it's $8 choice coupon which means this coupon will be $8.25 per month = $99
Comment has been collapsed.
People complain that they bought this but end up pausing every month, yet people still keep buying these kind of offers.
It's like they never learn.
Comment has been collapsed.
last year i fell for it, not gonna do it again, with coupons every month could have been cheaper
Comment has been collapsed.
$8.25 / month.
If it was $7.00 / month I'd get it.

I'll wait for the December lineup before i bite, I can't imagine buying two years tho.
Comment has been collapsed.
Pay for all 12 months now. So you can see other People getting the better discounts. Fooled me on once ,no thank you
Comment has been collapsed.
You won't receive discounts every month. I skip or cancel often and guess what, this year I only received 2 discounts, one last month and one in March. So it varies, there's no guarantee that you will receive a discount for every month to ensure you have a $7 price. It's worth it since you can skip.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have a discount every month. But rarely buy these days so it's possible that they will stop sending discounts if get choice frequently. Who knows
Comment has been collapsed.
I guess that's the issue for me. I buy once every 2-3 months, and I rarely receive any discounts. Then again I have 2 accounts, and on the one I didn't buy for a year I received the same discounts like the other account, 2 in a year. I heard Europeans receive less discounts so.. it is what it is.
Comment has been collapsed.
I am in the same boat, I cant remember last time when Humble offfered me a discount coupon.
Seems risky for me to gamble on Humble providing me with coupons, best for me to get this offer as I do every time I see it.
Comment has been collapsed.
I agree. Sometimes they give you a discount, other times they won't. So for me, the best approach is to get this and pause when necessary. I forgot to pause one day and they got my money but because I didn't reveal any key, they refunded me. So even if you have issues, they will help if possible. I think the deal is solid. If they would force you to get every month sure, I would get it. But you can pause and just use this for the months you want, for years.
