Is Valentine's Day cancelled in favor of purchasing this bundle?
This bundle is awesome. 5-6 games I'm interested in trying out on the first glance, and on top of that 2"real" wishlisted games. And even the remaining ones has potential that I'll enjoy them. Of course it could be upped with some game swaps, but I'm extremely happy with this monthly :)

Cancel your selection, click on Outward and claim those keys first, and then the rest of the games.

Valfaris was REALLY high on my wishlist and Lovecraft's Untold Stories was on it, too. Four games with good-looking coop (Moving Out, Outward, The Wild Eight and Boomerang Fu) - and they're not five just because we have already played Trine 4. Valkyria 4 sounds an interesting game I'll never have time to play and Iris seems so cute. Count me in for this one (though, really, they already had me with Valfaris XD).

I've been a humble bundle subscriber since 2016, the annual payment is $ 132, "Your 12-Month Classic Plan will automatically renew on Tuesday, March 30, 2021"
In my case I see that people pay much less monthly than me, despite making a single payment per year, I go to the advice of the experts around here, I have the option of paying month by month or annually, which is the one that I usually pay, what would you do in my place? cancel my classic plan definitely to see if I get a good offer? I add that if I put month by month the payment is 12 dollars per month, I hope your help, thank you very much.

If you're on classic plan, don't cancel - you will lose all your benefits. Instead, keep pausing the months until you find one that you would like to get.
For renewing your subscription, always wait until they have a promotion, something like $99 per year or even better. As long as you use the Choice more or less every month, it's better to extend your sub when such a promotion is active (even if you have some months left) instead of waiting until the current one runs out.
If your next billing date is in March, then you have to either keep pausing (and missing out on the Choice) until you find a good opportunity to renew your annual plan (which might be in Nov - Dec the soonest), or you can switch to a month-to-month payment, hoping to get some extra discount when attempting to pause your month (stuff like "if you don't cancel you get a $4 off for the next monthly payment".
It largely depends on how many of these Choices you claim - if it's pretty much every month, then I guess you'll have to renew for at least 6 months until winter promotions. If you mostly pause, you could ignore the renewal (by pausing continuously) and try to get the games you want some other way (bundle split, trades etc).
Also pausing this account and creating a new one when they have good promotions for new subscribers (last one was $6 - $8 per month, depending on the region) is also an option - but Humble Bundle don't usually like multiple accounts with the same payment / IP, so you'd have to see how you can get around that.

not exactly.
you are on humble classic, if you cancel you will lose it forever. but you can pause every month and keep the "classic" status
feel free to use the months left and pause after they are redeemed, and humble may offer a discount for you to un-pause.
and when there is a promotion going -like the 99$/yr- you can purchase it and add the 12month credit to your account. even if you still have months left from old credit.
hope this helps

it will auto buy on the last Tuesday of each month (23FEB for this month).
if you pause before it, you can still buy it until the first Tuesday of next month (2MAR for next month)

I paid the 132, I also sent an email to Humble asking if they had any offers for Classic before that which they reply no, regrettably. I think thats how the Classic model is; Classic subs will not get discount offers but will get the most benefits out of Choice at any promotion. Like get all the games for the month. If i remember correctly at the start of the program, Classic gets most of the games while other subs gets less. Recent months Premium and Classic have the same amount of games.
I know there are other users that has/got another account to gift them the 99/mth Premium which counted as Classic Choice somehow. I do not know how it will complicate things if Humble comes about knowing it. I didnt want to go through the trouble so I chose to pay for ease of mind. USD is about 1.5x my currency, its alot for me. However, for example this month, Outward and Valkyria Chronicles 4 Complete Edition already paid for themselves. VC 4 at lowest for me is $16.99 USD.
Cheerios, Cruse~

You didn't need another account. You just purchased as gift with your account and used the gift yourself, with the same account.

A few things of note:
Classic subs will not get discount offers
Well there's been the $6 for 6 months offer a month or two ago for any existing subscribers (classif or not classic) but pausing cancels the offer. Though I reocgnize from the SG thread here that the offer was screwy for one classic sub who posted here.
There are also coupons randomly emailed or offered upon pause attempt. I had $4 discounts with each of my 2 pause attempts this year.

Keep in mind that the dates for autocharge and for the bundle release have changed.
It is your last chance to cancel this bundle.
Comment has been collapsed.
The autocharge is scheduled to happen on 23 Feb, which is a few hours away. Depending on the region, they can start a bit sooner too - it happened in the past.
I\d thought it's better to warn people in advance - they also need some time to see this post.

HB changed the Choice release date from the first Friday to the first Tuesday of the month and respectively the billing date to one week before that. More info here.

the time counter for Humble Choice was removed or moved elsewhere ?

Depends on the time zone I guess. I had the autocharge happening both during night time (earlier than expected), but also in the morning of the autocharge day or even in evening like you say... all in the same timezone, but different months.

You're a godsend in this community. Thank you. For everything.

I have the $6 discount coupon for 6 months. Already used the first month, if I pause this month I'll still have 5 months to use or only 4?
Comment has been collapsed.
Damn, i slightly regret pausing my $6 coupon, hahah.

Its the ultimate version so its for steam and epic too we can choose steam or epic.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes most of the time when a game is in steam and epic too we can choose which client we want. Its an instant buy from me for the control ultimate and elex steam version. Amazing month.
Comment has been collapsed.
Epic still sells basic version of control but i really hope its the ultimate and a steam key too. If its the basic with only epic key i dont know.
Comment has been collapsed.
Its 10 euro difference for the basic and ultimate. Lets hope they will change their minds till the release day.

There is no need to actually create the gift link in order to check for region lock. Just click on GIFT TO A FRIEND and a window will pop with the Region Lock Warning (if that is the case). Take note of the info and close that window without creating the gift link.
Aside from this, always check the topic here for each month. There have been times when Humble had false warnings for region locks.
Comment has been collapsed.
Like Atilex says, you only need to press the gift link button in order to see the popup with the locked countries.
Keep in mind that you get that country list even if your key can be activated worldwide, so your best bet is to check the SG threads because we try to compile the "real" region locks there based on this notification, what exists on SteamDB and the user's feedback.
Feel free to also check my FAQ about this matter ("Why are the region locks from the "Create a gift link" pop-up different than the ones mentioned on the SteamGifts thread corresponding to that bundle?").

Anyone know if the Outward DLC is region locked too as Africa, US?
Comment has been collapsed.
Outward DLCs don't have any region locks - there is no notification when creating a gift link and there aren't any locked packages for them on SteamDB.

Apologies for the slight necro... 😅
I made a giveaway for the Endless Space 2: Digital Deluxe Edition sub. Maybe I should have checked this thread first and just made a gib for the base game? 😣
Does anyone know if there will be any problems for the winner if I keep the giveaway as that sub? (There are over 50 entries and it's in the middle of a train so I'd rather not delete it)
Comment has been collapsed.
If you made a giveaway for {sub/132241/} (Digital Deluxe Edition w/ Founder Bonus), the winner will need to have activated on his account the following apps:
392110, 539420, 539430
However, the key from this bundle activates {sub/177495} (DIGITAL RETAIL) which contains only 2 of the above apps:
392110, 539430
If you can provide the winner a way to activate the missing app/539420 on his account, then everything is covered. However, this dlc is not sold on the Steam Store, and can be acquired only by activating certain packages.
Therefore, if the winner activates the key, they will always have an inconsistency between what they own and what they should own from this giveaway. This will reflect on SteamTools and will perhaps prevent them to enter certain giveaways (it will show as Not activated, because they key you give away is different from the product you made a giveaway for).
My recommendation would be to delete this giveaway and re-create one for the correct item. In this case, because the exact package given through this bundle does not exist on SG, you should probably create a giveaway for the base game only.
Also, happy cakeday!

Yes but you don't get the other DLC's with it. It's definitive in title only, otherwise.

Another question, if for somehow you don't have Outward from before and you bought it now in the name of Outward Definitive Edition, does it include both the DLCs now since the description is "Experience the overhauled and complete Outward experience in the Definitive Edition, which natively includes the content of The Soroboreans and The Three Brothers. Beside the new weapons, dungeons and unique mechanics, you can also expect quality of life improvements. Adventurers, now is your best chance to explore the world of Aurai!"

Noted! Another question, if for somehow you don't have Outward from before and you bought it now in the name of Outward Definitive Edition, does it include both the DLCs now since the description kinda points out that includes the The Soroboreans and The Three Brothers (content)???
