First they take away our choice. Now they take away our surprise (monthly leaks). Are you still excited about what allegedly is considered to be "the best bundle" of the month?

Fun fact: the terms at the bottom say "New members only.".
They probably don't even proof-read these mails...

I got the $6 for two months deal, I can't say no to that :P

And as always, being patient pays off. For $6 this is a steal :)

I also got the $6 per month for two months deal. :P Just when I decide to pass on this months bundle.

I got the 8$ and thought there wasn't going to be any better deal, lesson learned, next time I'll only buy literally last day smh

No regrets here for taking the $8 deal, but agreed lol

If nothing else, you can sell full bundles in group buys to break even, if loss of money is an issue. Or the usual - making giveaways, trade the games.
While I bought the vast majority of the bundles, I just didn't feel comfortable with giving multiple months' worth of money to HB, discounts weren't good enough.
Comment has been collapsed.
Eh, I'm happy enough with the $8 offer. I saved more than the $2 difference with other purchases, thanks to the 20% off.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah, if you do buy from the store, then it does compensate, I rarely do, so, the 20% off is not really enticing to me haha, oh well, it's just $2 of difference.
Comment has been collapsed.
I appreciate their desperation but that's still a no from me. Had it been a steam key for C&C...
Planet Zoo - better to wait for the inevitable game+dlc bundle
Spongebob - already owned on stadia
Survive the Aftermath - meh
all the rest already owned or purchased on grey market for pennies

$6 per month for two months
not $6 for two months
they actually lie in the title, too, saying "2 months of Choice for $6!"
only a few lines lower they say "get the next 2 months of Humble Choice for just $6 (USD) per month".

Just offered me €5/$6 coupon for next two months. I went for it. Only really interested in a couple of them. But getting 2 months for €10 is a good deal.
Comment has been collapsed.
Question for those who received the $6 offer: did you receive any of the earlier offers too, and if so, which?
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, i've received the $8 offer pretty much every month.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, same for me, already get the $8 offer (and refuse it), but for 6$ (5.04 eur with fee in my case), will pretty take it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, I received the $8 offer. I still wasn't going to buy because I wasn't interested in most of the games. I decided to bite at $6 because I do kinda like the look of the Genesis Noir game.
Comment has been collapsed.
Still no $6 or $8 offer for me, guess i ran out of luck..
Well it's a big no for me this month, ain't no way i paid $12 for only 8 humble choice games.
It's getting lower and lower, i won't be surprised if next month they only give 7 games.
Comment has been collapsed.
+1 i was on a year plan...and now no discount for me...instapaused..xD
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope for me even for $6. LIterally 0 interest in any of the games this month. If, miraculously, I want next month's bundle, I can get it for at least $8 (like usual), which is $4 cheaper than $6 + $6. Humble needs to understand that a trash bundle is a trash bundle regardless if you're giving a discount or not.
Comment has been collapsed.
Agreed, also: the way they're throwing around these discount offers really makes me wonder if they've gone mad or something:
- May 12th: mail with an offer for $8 one month (when others got 2) valid until June 7th (just before the new bundle starts).
- May 17th: another mail with what looks like the same offer, except that they changed the coupon expiry date to May 24th.
- May 26th: yet another mail, now offering 2 months for $6 each, valid until May 31st.
Comment has been collapsed.
I imagine Humble tries to figure out people's breakpoint. Some people will refuse $8 but would accept $6. Some people will refuse the 1-month offer but would accept to pay for this month in order to have access to the 2-month offer next month. Etc. It is a big economical and psychological study from their marketing team.

Bargaining:
$12? I can do $0.12.
I wonder if Collin is a Humble client :).
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, yes, I'm sure they're trying to figure out ... something. Still: going back on an offer only a few days later, cutting the expiry date by two weeks, only to throw in yet another offer with yet another expiry date, that's either borderline scam - or borderline madness.
Comment has been collapsed.
lots of tactics that boost sale in the short term but end up costing in the long run and humble is trying to use all of them at once
Comment has been collapsed.
It's fun because the only reason I didn't use the $8 offer is because I thought it lasted until autocharge and I was waiting for it to self-apply as I usually do. So they lost my 2$/mo literally for nothing.
Comment has been collapsed.
did you pause before they give mail or just let it on?
because i always pause at the first month and nothing (or maybe it's different region)
Comment has been collapsed.
Actually, that was kinda weird, as someone noticed here they unpaused my sub early, before the May bundle was released. So I paused also early (while the April bundle was still running) and I've been paused since then. Not sure how much pausing affects whether or not you get one of those discount offers, their whole discount strategy seems pretty random.
Comment has been collapsed.
maybe just my luck, since last month i got $8 coupon but not this month
Comment has been collapsed.
Be sure to check the coupons page on your humble account, I almost overlooked the mail for the $6 offer because it had a really generic subject.
Comment has been collapsed.
first thing i did after reading this, but nothing
ill wait for next month i guess
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm... a "€5 per month for two months" gamble. Fine, I'll take the bait. I can still cancel if I don't like next month's reveal. I guess it's not the time to lose that 20% store discount just yet.
Comment has been collapsed.
decided to buy it for the $8 aud for first 2 months then the normal price for the rest, can't pass on spongebob for that price lol, wouldnt be surprised if next months selection is garbage but who knows, best of luck to us who bought on the deal!
Comment has been collapsed.
Glad I read this before buying. The region locks on If Found... is absolutely insane.
Comment has been collapsed.
Tried to use the $6 a month for 2 months coupon, it said i wasn't eligible because I had a current (paused) subscription so I cancelled to use the coupon and now the coupon is gone. Guess I am officially done with humble after all these years, I started with Humble Bundle one and on Humble Monthly/Choice one. What a sad state such a cool thing has descended to.

all locks to latam is confirmed by me (except spongebob).

Reminder that the autocharge process starts in a few hours.
This is your last chance to pause this month's bundle.

Jedi: Fallen Order for Origin? Would continue the trend of including an Origin game and would also increase hype for Jedi: Survivor.

What's this new habit of putting clues on some stupid Chinese social media? Epic does it as well. I think the clues should be available to everybody.
Comment has been collapsed.
At least Epic is Chinese. IGN is not... at least they weren't. Anyone know if Tencent bought IGN?
Comment has been collapsed.
Tencent and Ziff Davis (IGN's parent company) formed a partnership a couple of years ago to allow Tencent to run the Chinese version of IGN. It's not technically an ownership stake, but I'm sure all of that Chinese money has some influence on how Ziff Davis runs the rest of IGN.
Comment has been collapsed.
Makes more sense now. I knew Ziff Davis had some form of agreement with Tencent but I didn't know it was still going on.
Chinese communist capitalism is to big business like water is to pavements. It gets into every crack.
Comment has been collapsed.
If that's true then it's going to be an Origin game again..
Another disappointment then..
