updates:

  • As of August 26th, you should have been auto charged for the September Monthly Bundle if you are a subscriber

  • (Sept 2) - user Leaffar has found a possible hint

    I've asked Humble about a hint and they\ve responded:
    "Will our subscribers be collectively gloam - er, gloomy if we don't give out a hint? :)"
    Which I think means that "gloam" is the hint.
    EDIT: I've found the game: https://twitter.com/GloamCollective/status/771434421325008896
    "Gloam Collective".

I recommend unsubscribing/canceling subscription right away if you know you don't want next month's bundle (OCTOBER).

Huh?? Who's being greedy here? Humble Monthly mission statement: "A highly curated subscription bundle of our favorite games...discover a variety of recent hits, hidden gems, and timeless classics." How does supporting 2K and one of its poorly-rated money-grabbing hellspawn (WWE 2K16) fit this statement? A true disgrace to Humble's once noble roots...very sad.

Ok you have a point here for wwe but it is just for 12bucks i didnt like it also but i has some games that are really cool! whatever the result was i wouldnt complain cause i want soma! :D But this is a personal statement! :D
Edit: i am more pissed for town of salem that it is a free browser game than wwe that i can giveaway it!

Hi, yeah, sorry for ranting so strongly - I didn't mean anything personal and agree with you on the cost/value of all of the Humble bundles really. I am very grateful (being an old gamer from the times of $50 crap-shoots) for this new era of insanely generous bundle deals.

I guess I'm just a little disappointed to see Humble selling out like this and supporting the greedy/gluttonous big business side of the gaming industry. I would be very happy to swap $50 big business abominations (like WWE 2K16) for well-rated $10 games from Indie developers deserving of the visibility that these bundles provide.

These monthlies were Humble's chance to support their Indie roots - they have complete control over each bundle's content - but they have instead succumbed to America's money culture. Humble Bundle was an organization I was once very proud to support. Now...not so much.

Anyway, enough of the complaining...time to get back to playing some of the gems that were in the bundle - happy gaming :-)

Of course and i didnt take anything personal! We are making a conversation! And sorry if i offended you as greedy! :D I am 100% with your opinion! :D except the proud to support! I am still proud as proud can be someone to take bundle games even crappy sometimes for 12$! No hard feelings at all and yes let's jump to The banner saga! :D It is wishlisted for a loooong time! :D

Not really my cup of tea this month as I have Banner Saga already and only Epistory looks interesting. Value is again okay and I'll stay for Grim Dawn that has been on my wishlist for quite some time.

WWE 2K16???!!! WTF is this garbage doing in this bundle!!?? What an insult. "A highly curated subscription bundle of our favorite games...discover a variety of recent hits, hidden gems, and timeless classics." Highly curated my ass - what a sellout. I've been foolishly loyal for too long with this monthly BS. Humble has unfortunately steadily lost their way since the venture capitalist pigs were given a piece of the pie. They've now dropped the default percentage of their charitable giving to 5% in the most recent regular bundle as well. Oh well, just another casualty of my country's heartless money culture. Ahhh...rant complete. :)

Hi, yes, you're right - I was able to trade it for a wishlisted game quite quickly. There are plenty of people who clearly enjoy the world of WWE. That's cool - to each their own.

My initial reaction wasn't so much about it being something that I wasn't interested in, but that it clearly didn't fit with what Humble stated the monthlies were going to be about: "A highly curated subscription bundle of...a variety of recent hits, hidden gems, and timeless classics." I didn't take that to include overpriced mixed-rating games used to inflate the overall price value of a bundle.

Overall, I'm very happy and grateful for the availability of bundles in general. Just feeling a little sad to see what venture capital has done to my once beloved Humble Bundle business model...just a hopeless dreamer in a money-centric world... :)

The mixed rating is not due to the lower quality of the game but to the bitchy nature of its fans. The first negative review I see on the page is from a guy who played it for 42 hours. Enough said.

All more or less true. BUT! They still put out the best bundles (just not every week, of course) and you can still move those sliders as you like. As long as these two things stay true, I'll like Humble. Not love, but like. Of course it's not about charity, though.

Yes, I agree. IMHO, Humble is definitely the premier provider of quality game bundles, only eclipsed at times by Bundle Stars. And, yeah, even with their gradual slide to the traditional max profit model, Humble is still in a league of their own with regard to giving back. Outside of Groupees, there's nobody else that I know of in the bundle world that has a business model that features charitable giving.

Anyway, glad to hear you say that WWE is better than its current rating. I got my ranting out of my system and I'll give the Humble curators the benefit of the doubt and remain on board for another round of mystery... game on... :-)

With 6 games in it, WWE 2k16 should fall in the bundled list then for the price, or not? If yes, it's at least a good time to try to win it now^^

Then the 95% off go for the total price and not for each game on it's own? Good to know that now.

FYI it might not be obvious from the chart, but The Uncertain is a DRM-free demo, so, for instance, the fact that it has cards might not be relevant?
Maybe just indicate DRM-free, non-Steam, or something like that. =)

Yeah, I don't think that game should be part of the main chart, but should be a separate single FYI entry so it's less confusing.

Third month in a row I knew I should cancel, didn't, and was disappointed.

It's not that they're bad bundles, but they are games I'm not interested in playing.

The only thing these are doing for me is slowly getting me closer to Level 9.

Well, as I told some friends a short while ago, I would be happy no matter what because of Soma^^
But I'm missing 'Epistory - Typing Chronicles' (which looks quite nice!) and 'WWE 2K16'. :) The rest can go for trading or giveaways.

Even though it's surprising Town of Salem is in it, it's alright since the game is fun. :]

Looks like I won't have much to giveaway from this monthly :)). Don't understand the hate towards WWE 2k16, I myself haven't yet decided whether I keep it or I gift it, but it's still a 50 € recent release which surely has quite an audience.

Also had 2 wishlisted, 1 followed and 1 owned, definitely thumbs up here!

And great unlock for next month too :)

I think it's because it's exactly the same as 2k15 which was the same as 2k14 etc. Just remembering the great times I had on the old games. I seem to remember creating a T-Rex character.

Yeah I was going to complain about this bundle, but then I actually added 4 of the 6 games to my library, and 2 were wishlisted, albeit lower priority. So yeah nothing amazingly cool, but the value was still fine.

That's the question we're all asking, but for the record, only Town of Salem was truly bundled. The Banner Saga was in a fake bundle and Sheltered was in the ridiculous tier of another bundle, neither of which count.

They said that there'll be unbundled games, and bundled games returning sometimes. Noone promised it will be all nonbundled - though Town of Salem is a surprise here, as it was in cheap bundles that had many games. At least it's a good one.
