Is it a Telltale bundle? No. Are there Tales to Tell? Sure!
+1
I already have Reventure and Neo Cab. Reventure is an entertaining platformer homage to 8 bit Zelda & adventure games where you can experience 100 different endings doing different stuff. Neat mechanic where the more items you grab, the shorter your jumps are, and thus more limitations on where you can go. Highly recommend it.
I'm playing Neo Cab right now. Its a different kind of dialog driven game with the adventure limited to where you go/drive in a city as a cab-type driver. Your character's emotional state as visualized by a bracelet can restrict or open new dialog options. That mechanic is neat, but you'll either find the story really intriguing or hamfisted.
So I'm only getting T1 for Monkey Island. If I didnt already have the 2 games I mentioned, I wouldnt get T2 unless I loved those 2 games more or liked all the games in that tier.

I didn't get the chance to pick up hiveswap 2 during the winter sale but I did want to. I do want blacksad so I'll probably buy

I'm really interested in Blacksad but idk if I want to spend $12. Also, I got Hiveswap Act 2 when it first came out. Idk if it's really worth being in t3.

I think Indivisible used to have better ratings until a review bomb dropped it over that whole Lab Zero debacle.
Comment has been collapsed.
Indivisible is also a platform game lost in the middle of classic p&c adventure games (except reventure)... You can also get it for free with Xbox game pass (I finished it on my Xbox one).

Two wishlisted in Tier 3, but among the rest only one unowned... I guess I'll wait for another bundle.
BTW how many acts of Hiveswap will there be in total? I don't like to start games that are not complete.
Comment has been collapsed.
There are supposed to be 4 iirc. They were released about 3 years apart so I wouldn't really wait for all 4 to come out bc that would be another 6-ish years. I didn't replay Act 1 before Act 2 and I think there was a recap in the beginning.

In for T3, have one of the batmans and reventure but still seems like a good bundle overall :)
Played the whole monkey island when I have it on the ps3, love the series. Would recommend it to anyone :)

That's... strange.
EDIT: They fixed it, but it took a while.
Comment has been collapsed.
Interesting catch. They really need to get their editing together... Man would've been nice if they did include paradise killer, If they put that on tier 4 I would've gotten it.
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah, I saw Paradise Killer on the page and was super hyped :(

No matter how much you hate HB. No matter how broke you are. Buy T1. Now.

I'm trying, but clicking PayPal button is just causing it to spin...patience, they say...
Comment has been collapsed.
I thought about getting it for a long time...
But is it a "real" Monkey Island game? Most Telltale Games are not point and clicks...
Comment has been collapsed.
It’s a point and click game. Witty and fun. I played this one first before learning about the older monkey islands.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, it is a point and click game. Puzzles are easier than the previous chapters, but Telltale has made an overall great work imho.
Comment has been collapsed.
Why?
Serious question. The Monkey Island games hold a special place in my gamer heart and this Telltale doing always felt like a sacrilege to me, never even considered touching them.
Comment has been collapsed.
MI2 is not my favourite game just because Loom exists. I was incredibly skeptic about Telltale series, since the fourth chapter was handled so poorly. This is not the case! They managed to recreate a bit of atmosphere and some of the ingenuity of the old games (though the old ones remain unreachable, sadly) - while not at the same level, I still feel I can recommend them to any MI fan. Much, much more than Escape, anyway.
Comment has been collapsed.
IF you didn't mind Monkey Island 4 in 3D with Tank controls and Monkey Kung Fu you'll probably enjoy Tales as well. It's been a while since I played both but I'd say it's pretty much on par with that.
For me personally Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island had more Monkey Island flair than Tales though. Makes sense given they had some Lucas Arts veterans on board.

Blacksad has a cool story and interesting characters but the game has a lot of bugs.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm only missing Half Past Fate, Reventure, Blacksad, and HIVESWAP: ACT 2. But Blacksad is on my wishlist so I might buy tier 3.

T1+2, all games look at least very interesting! It's been more than 1 year since I last felt so positively surprised by a HB bundle. :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Heh, it has to started with a little delay, as I checked on right hour and there was no bundle. Anyway will buy T1 only - has too much in T2 and T3 to costly.

After a long time with only HB choices, a decent bundle... T3 for me

So we have reached the 1-game-per-tier phase of the game?
Comment has been collapsed.
Tell me when activating the key Tales of Monkey Island Complete Pack, I get +1 to the collector's badge, or 5 games?
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a package containing 5 apps, each of them giving a +1, so it should give +5 in total.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's +5 to your account. I just tested it.
Kinda wanted that to be the implication with the poll option too.
Comment has been collapsed.
Kinda hoped it would appear as 1 game actually. Oh well. lol.
Comment has been collapsed.
The 1st and 2nd tiers look quite good. Neo Cab and Half Past Fate are wishlisted, and complete versions of Tales of Monkey Island and Batman look interesting too. I'm not sure about 3rd one yet, and the 4th is an easy skip for me as it was in December HC. The min price I got on BTA is €6.48. I was an hour late though. I was in time for previous crappy ones, but I missed it on a good one. Dammit.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm only interested on Tier 2 since the Telltale Batman series are pretty interesting. Other than that, I don't think it's worth it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Already have Reventure and also Indivisible, so looks like Tier 3 is for me since pretty much everything was on my wishlist.
Comment has been collapsed.
Honestly not a bad bundle, game-wise... if you don't own everything in T1-2 already
Blacksad is on my wishlist but I'd rather get it on sale since I'm not getting anything else for the price that I don't already own.
Tier 4 though... Are they kidding?
Comment has been collapsed.
Blacksad's historical low is +-13 euros though.....
So Blacksad + one more new game + 2 more amazing tiers it's much more than enough for just 9,93.
They could easily add Blacksad and Hiveswap along with Indivisible for 12,41 or more at tier 3 and sell the same number of bundles as easy as they will sell them now.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's why I said it's a good bundle if you don't own most of T1-2.
If you're not interested in Hiveswap like I am (I played Part 1 and it wasn't my groove), it's 10 bucks for one game.
Sure Blacksad seems to be well worth that but I'd rather support the devs by buying the game than by getting it for a couple bucks less in a bundle I'm not interested in.
I just don't get them putting Indivisible in T4 when it was in Choice last month (?) and doesn't seem worth a T4 standalone.
Comment has been collapsed.
So buy it without discount then if it's about supporting devs :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Idiotic a suggestion to support a dev "you like" ?
You are just ridiculous.
And no company or dev need such trash "fans" like you anyway.
Comment has been collapsed.
No your ramping up was idiotic.
I said I am not interested in anything for the bundle so might as well get the one game I'm interested in for the same price so that the devs get more money out of it. It made you feel bad so you say "hey buy it full price then".
I'm spending my money however I want, and however I can. I could also just sign my paycheck directly to the devs. That would also support them more than buying the game full price, right?
That's what is idiotic. And using words like "trash" to refer to people as well, just because they disagree with your inflated statements. Have a good life
Comment has been collapsed.
You told someone's comment idiotic, right? kidding or what?
Trash is nothing compared to what you really deserve.
Just gtfo .
Simple.
Also you don't have money.Maybe your dad or your mom has.Big difference.
Go to enter some GAs intead of crying here.
Comment has been collapsed.
Wow, that escalated quickly.
But to be honest...
So buy it without discount then if it's about supporting devs :)
I also thought that it was a slightly stupid thing to say. I don't think that you are stupid, mind you... I just don't get why you replied with that somewhat passive-aggressive comment, as if someone who wants to support devs must purchase a game at full price. You know that most people buy stuff on sale and games are certainly not an exception. As I've said a few posts below, getting Blacksad on sale would give the developers more money than purchasing that HB bundle so if someone only wants that game, it would make more sense to wait for a sale.
Or a rebundle. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Comment has been collapsed.
Buying at full price is one way to do it, but how about waiting for a Steam sale? I can't read his mind, but I assume that's what Fluffster meant by supporting the devs. Blacksad would cost about the same amount as the HB bundle and the developers would get more money that way. That'd be a win-win situation.
Comment has been collapsed.
And even more money if he buys it on its full price.
He wont buy it anyway.So.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, you don't know that for sure. It's a weird thing to assume.
Comment has been collapsed.
You can't be sure for what you are assuming either.
I don't even need more than this sentence to reply to your both comments.omg.
Comment has been collapsed.
Indeed. And I didn't mean to imply I had the correct answer either. Just that based on my experience, people buy stuff when there's a sale and if fluffster wants to support the game's devs, he's most likely to purchase the game on sale. You, on the other hand, had a much more definite point of view.
I don't really understand what you mean by that second sentence of yours. You're the one who overreacted, saying fluffster deserved more than being called thrash. What for? Because he thought a previous comment of yours was idiotic? Whelp... as I've said, I also think that comment was also kinda dumb and I think I have explained why I thought this was the case.
Comment has been collapsed.
Actually a lot of my more casual gamer friends buy games at full pice or at discounts like -20% a couple of months after release. You gotta keep in mind there are many people who only buy games they actually play and if you're not into the whole collecting games for the sake of collecting-thing and only buy a a handful games per year paying full price for them isn't so preposterous.

this bundle is even better than humble choices lol :D

It's kind of a weird feel to own T2 and T4, and needing T1 and T3. lol.

As a heads up, Monkey Island does have a full mac download, even if it says windows only. Might not work on Catalina though.
(I did not update to Catalina XD)
EDIT: Just tested it out on High Sierra. So if you're on a mac, bear in mind that it's an old app and doesn't have a loading screen, so screen goes blank for a time before the game starts. To avoid it crashing out, just be patient and let it load. =) Have fun ^^
EDIT 2: Batman Enemy Within also has a mac download. I knew that one though. Didn't realise they removed the apple symbol on Steam. Also works if you haven't updated to Catalina. ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you! Updated to Catalina (currently on Big Sur) but that's good to know about T1.
Comment has been collapsed.
Wow, I didn't even realise they released another OS after Catalina. My mac's older, so they haven't been harassing me to update this time. XD
Being honest, I've always been late to update to the latest OS's because I needed my mac to be stable for work. But some apps not working from Catalina onwards made me even slower to update. XD. They seem to release a new one as soon as they've ironed out the bugs in the previous one. Hahah!
Comment has been collapsed.
I've found Big Sur to be much faster except that it can't really use zoom backgrounds. I haven't checked in a while but when I used them last, it basically crashed my computer lol bc it was running so slowly.
