HumbleBundle.com $1 Min. Price For Getting Steam Keys

Well, they can now remove the 'Pay what you want' slogan

I only bought them to giveaway, not for multiple steam accounts.

:(

A bit late.

I kinda like it that way, and I think they should keep it that way.

You can still pay 1 Cent and get the Games to Download for free as many time as you want. Think of the Steam Keys as an Extra Bonus if you pay at least $1.

Good move. Can't fault them, aside from waiting a bit too long for this.

They shouldn't even do case by case basis ones because people will ruin that too. I donated 100 bucks. Humblebundle is no place for poors B)

I physically could not pay bellow the minimum, seeing that capthca hurt, people abusing the use of theses keys is very irritating their ruining the chance of more developers wanting to be part of HB and they are ruing everyone's chances of winning the giftpile contest by jacking up the odds when they where terrible in the first place.

I think it's a good idea on the part of HiB, and I think Steam should exclude new accounts from the raffle.

Good, such a change is long overdue. Also they seem to be implying that all future bundles will be like this to prevent abuse in later Steam raffles and such, which is even better because it means all future bundles given away here will at least be dollar ones.

I support this. No more Steam HIB keys for 2 scrap threads. -_-

Gonna go straight into their office Friday and thank them personally ^_^

I wish this had been done earlier, as the abuse was going on well before Steam's winter sale; but I'd rather now than never, I guess.

Now, why doesn't Steam do anything? They could (pretty easily, I imagine) stop HIB4 games from counting towards a valid account, or take other measure to taper the alt accounts. It wouldn't even need an announcement, as the only people affected would be those with only HIB games in their account (like they're going to speak up).

Good call, I personally support this. Lots of people taking advantage of the Pay What You Want system.

I hope IndieGala will do the same ._.

I though this was pay what you want, not pay what we want.

Finally some action.

I agree, HiB for $1 is still cheap like hell. I know many people that buys HiB for the $0.01 - and that's wrong! I even saw HiB on Aukro (something like eBay in my country) where somebody sells it for $2.5. How much you guess that he paid for them? -_-

And the limit only for Steam Keys is also great idea - many people will rather pay the $1 'cause of the Steam key.

I'd set the minimal price even higher.

Good move, about time something was done against people with no morals.

I still think they should set it at 1$ minimum period.

I think its a good idea, there was a thread on the steam forums where someoene was just giving away code after code, which didn't include the extra codes, so I'm guessing he was getting them for 1c each. I couldn't afford the average, but I still paid $1

+1. or even make it 2$.

$1 minimum is still far too cheap! I didn't even know you could pay whatever you wanted, that's disgusting. $5 minimum and no lower if you want to cut back on account abuse.

I think it might further deter people who aren't exactly blessed with money. I'll admit, I bought My indie bundle for 7c, but only because I didn't have much money left over. I usually pay WELL over the 5$ average. Had it been raised to 1$ beforehand I could have still gotten it, but the principle stands that it also offers an opportunity for poorer gamers to play games. Let's face it, there are people who will always abuse the system they are given. For people who DO get lot's of copies to create dummy accounts and "increase" their chances of winning this raffle, well, they probably won't be increasing their chances by much and if they created enough dummy accounts TO increase their chances, let them have it, maybe having a limitless supply of games to interact and socialize with people might be enough to kick in and make them realize how much of a loser they are that they were willing t sit down and do the same achievements over and over.

Note: There's only 3 games with achievements from the bundle that are going to get you anything for the gift pile.

Inb4 bonus items, you;d have to donate over 5$ to get them.

So as you can see, the indie bundle team are worrying about literally NOTHING
