I'm not a super rich guy. I'm not drowning in disposable income. I've a mortgage, a kid and a wife, all of which sap away at my savings.

Do I really need 6 more games that I'm likely not going to want? Or already have?

Do you have too many games? Do you want another?

Help me Steamgifts-Kenobi...you're my only hope.

View Results
Yes, you deserve to treat yo self
No, you don't deserve nice things
No, because my psychic powers have alerted me that all the games will be shit this month
Yes, because my psychic powers have alerted me that all the games will be shit this month, and I like when strangers suffer

Humble Monthly is about 50/50 sometimes you'll get an amazing times,,, other times you'll get sheer and utter crap..

Will this time be the amazing games or the utter crap.. Also opinions differ between people.. so one person may be like.. man this sucks.. while another person is like.. wow this is sick..

If you can afford the 12 dollars and you are cool with paying 12 for Grim Dawn buy it.. If you are luke warm or don't think Grim Dawn is worth 12 dollars skip it..

Either way, it's your money, and you do whatever you want with it..

I have bought every month so far... But the monthly is the only games purchase I make in a month (assuming that the humble bundle is doing comic books and Android games) so I don't feel that bad even when there are games that I don't think I'll like. Plus for trading it is a really good value. Of course I tend not to like those MMO survival horror games that keep showing up in the monthly...

Only if you're really interested in the one known game. Grim Dawn has been the first one of these monthly's that I've been interested in, but it's a month I have no extra money lol.

Thanks very much for the giveaway!

Based on everything you said here and in the GA, I'd say no...don't buy. Don't get me wrong-- I love Humble and some of it goes to charity, etc., but spend those ~$12 on a surprise for your wife and/or kids-- you know you won't regret it. But you might regret getting half a dozen more keys you either don't want or don't have time to play. :)

  1. Are you really eager to play Grim Dawn for hours and make it a priority in your Steam library?
  2. You don't have a big backlog of great games to dig into?
  3. You have blocked enough gaming time to dedicate?

If at least 2 of those 3 answers were YES then treat yourself. If not, then pass :] that's what I do to avoid extra spendings since I don't earn much either

Do not buy it. If you discover there is one game you want in the bundle.Why not trade for it. $12,00 for games you do not want, or just $2,00 for the one you want. If you do not drown in money, don't spend it.

And don't forget to spend some of it on your wife or kid

I have been subbed since the start and will continue to be.

  • it supports charity and a company whose biggest purpose is to support charity
  • 10 percent off everything in humble store even sale prices
  • duplicate or unwanted keys can be given as gifts
  • opportunity to try games I never would have thought of trying
  • DRM free copies in addition to Steam keys
  • Humble Original games

Sadly, very few games in the monthly have a DRM-free version available. I would love those too…

Yes the only sensible thing to do is divorce the wife, disown the kid, move into an apartment, and keep buying more games \m/ (◣_◢) \m/

i have a wife and 2 kids, so it doesn't make a whole lot of sense for me to do humble monthly either (especially considering the 1500+ unplayed games in my library. but i have been a humble monthly subscriber since april anyway. i've been mostly happy with the games it's got me so far, with a couple months that weren't quite my thing. it's mostly made up for by often having 1-3 games from my wishlist. i'm still not playing most of them, but it feels good to tell myself i will someday.
