Per Aspera, Before We Leave, Black Book and Paradise lost for $8 USD seems like a solid choice for me. Got a couple of games for giveaways too, so I call that a win :)

So, claiming Per Aspera shows me a key, but trying to redeem it gives me a "This product isn't available for sale in your country", though I can see it in the client. Seems there are quite a few glitches with the Per Aspera keys, let's see if/when they'll be fixed.

just got the Per Aspera Key
and working

Son of a.... I JUST bought Borderlands 3 and played it for the first time last damn week! I guess I'll cash this in so I can activate the DLC.

So much about them improving the choice bundle, heh. This is just terrible.

At first I was excited over Borderlands 3 being in the bundle, but then some people realized and told me it's not worth it. You only get the base game and Directors Cut is just a single DLC out of many! Buying the Ultimate Edition on steam would be cheaper than buying the base game in bundle and then having to buy the two season passes separately since there's no upgrade option on steam. DO NOT BUY THE BUNDLE JUST FOR BORDERLANDS 3 BECAUSE OF THAT.

While the other games have positive reviews, they're just so niche and unfortunately not a single one catches my interest. And this is another thing HB has issue with, there have been waaaay too many very niche games in their bundles lately, or dead multiplayer games.

I've completely lost hope in them now, screw Humble. However is doing the hunting for games to put in their bundles clearly has no idea what the heck are they doing.

Is is worth it to buy it for Borderlands 3?

For anyone interested: If you change your annual classic sub to the new annual choice sub, you keep your 20% discount. Although it is automatically set to "10% discount, 10% to charity" and you have to go into the settings to change it back to "20% discount".

Black Book is phenomenal, definitely the best game I played last year. It's something really fresh lore-wise: a Russian game about that mythological tradition that was eliminated by Bolsheviks, a curious mix of Orthodox Christian and pagan traditions (as a result, we are not much more aware of our pre-revolution folklore than foreigners are). It's brilliantly written, has an extremely likable protagonist and an actually quite pleasant gameplay (and that's coming from a person who generally doesn't enjoy card-based games). I don't know though why they've decided to bundle it so early; shame for me, I wanted to make a GA for it for my cakeday, and now it wouldn't make sense.

I can also recommend Paradise Lost: this one is not a masterpiece, but still probably the best walking simulator of 2021. And I'll try to win Calico. All in all, not a terrible bundle.

why do we still have to select the games?

Oh my! This bundle is NOT bad at all but holy cow they hyped it like it was going to be some next level crazy deal. "Humble Choice is going NEXT LEVEL or some kind of BS like that!! They really dropped the ball on this one. My expectations were just way too high and it's entirely my fault on this one. 3rd 2K Game in the past 12 months (Civilization VI, Mafia Def Edition and now Borderlands). Would definitely buy this bundle if they bring back $6 coupon offer!!

A card game, two city builders, a re-bundle I couldn't be less interested in, a walking simulator and two games on my ignore list.
Wow. Since it's not a Choice anymore, how about they just rename the "bundle" "One Month, One Game" and just be done with it.

Not that Borderlands 3 is not a good game but considering the base game goes for 12 euros on sale and the price will most likely go down now... yeah another skip.

By the way, if they're going to have one AAA in the bundle again, would be really cool if they made it a little less obvious that their point is just to get us to buy the what? 80 bucks of DLC on their store?

Was excited for Borderlands 3, Black Book and Everhood, but now that I see that Borderlands 3 comes with a run lock - not so much.

I think I actually preferred when they had a focus on mid budget / indie games. But the value is still there, despite already owning BL3. Black Book, Per Aspera and Everhood are wishlisted. I'll probably keep Before We Leave too. BL3 and the rest should make some decent GAs.

Only really interested in Borderlands 3 and Everhood, except of the 6$ coupon will not take it ...

Bought it, but no Per Aspera key. :/

Liked it a lot. I don't recall ever activating this many games in a bundle, and it even had a wishlisted game with a historical low higher than bundle price (black book).

At least they included the correct Paradise Lost and not this overpriced garbage https://store.steampowered.com/app/1555890/Paradise_Lost/

Seems like quality has gone up even tho none of these games interest me.

Ugh, a DLC... Got Borderlands 3 with all DLC on Stadia for 1€ last year, the other games are 2 that interest me, but kinda both on the same genere.

I was ready to be awed and... of course, they didnt deliver. This is acceptable at best All I see is less games. No, I'm not convinced by a good enough headline title plagued by DLC

Yet another region-locked crap that I can't use because HB insists on putting me where I'm not...
Looks like an easy pass this time

How is the Borderlands 3 experience without the DLC? Is it a full game?

Not a bad selection honestly. Borderlands 3 as the only headliner sucks though and the "Director's Cut" thing is outright misleading as it's only one (shitty) DLC amongst many.

The thing I understand from this, the next big Epic title will be Borderlands 3.

So what to do now as a former Humble Monthly Classic subscriber?

In my settings I still see the Classic plan and that my next bill will be 12$ (instead of 10€ for the new plan).

Should I just cancel and then re-sub when I like a month this time or what?
