i feel sorry for phil fish. he developed an amazing game and people refuse to pay for it because he's a bit of an asshole

I suppose that's your choice, but personally I'd rather support publishers and developers who care about their fans over ones that don't. Admittedly I'd rather support Phil than EA, though.

But what about Renaud Bédard who also worked on the game and Disasterpiece who contributed his music?
Phil Fish isn't the only one that worked on the game.
Renaud does care about the fans which is why the game even got a Steam release.
You're judging a game by Phil's action while disregarding the others who worked on the game.

If nobody bought things that profited assholes, nobody would ever buy anything. Or near enough, anyway. The Simpsons would have been cancelled LONG ago as they support Rupert Murdoch, nobody would use light bulbs or Direct Current for anything because Edison was sort of an asshole, etc.. etc..

and also based on twitter sounds like you only get them if bta is before release? but that can't be right. the guy just failed to read the question he answered and then chose his wording poorly

That's it. I am officialy not buying ANY indie game before it gets bundled.
Comment has been collapsed.
I already got the ones I like from the bundle (that would be Trine 2 and Brutal Legend), so I'm not buying it. Not interested in FTL either. The bundle is quite good, though. Guess I'll just enter a few FEZ giveaways and try my luck!

Damn, selling an earlier BTA game... That's cheating! :l

FTL!!???
insta-buys
This is probably yet another chance to get the game at dirt cheap, i won't let it go to waste.
Comment has been collapsed.
_N_ow even I bought this bun_d_le too, I really wanted to get FTL and Mark of the Ninja, also trine 2 (wonder if they'll make a 3) is a nice game and heard go_o_d stuff about Brutal Legend :D
Gave away FEZ to a friend cause I'm not interested in it and he was, and I'm left with Eets Munchies key to give away.
I wont be making another thread about it, so anybody wants this?
But now I'm wondering if they'll make anv more fun games in bundles (FF7 so I could share the joy of the game with everybody xD)
Maybe I should write this post from the back?
Srry to those that replied cause I was in middle of edditing and by mistake pushed post, well this one was finished so deleted the first one :P
@Killa24 then take it, its out in the open :D

The restart thing has happened not just with humble games but all steam keys I have entered since last night. Basically since the time the login servers went all wonky yesterday.
Also, this isn't the first time the bonus games will be part of the BTA. This is just the first time they are telling you ahead of time.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep. I got Mark of the Ninja and FTL in the summer sale. And got Fez when it was onsale as a midweek madness last week lol. I won Trine 2 on here, but I did get Brutal Legend in a trade today for some cards.
Oh well.
I still may get the bundle if the bonuses are any good.
Comment has been collapsed.
Pretty much the same here, Bought Trine 2 DLC, Mark of the Ninja (haven't played either yet, still in my inventory...) FTL, (at least I played that one, it's amazing) and Brutal Legend I bought last week for my 360 cause it was so cheap, but in the end it's still more than a dollar :P
Hoping to win a copy of Fez from one of the giveaways here and otherwise maybe there'll indeed be some cool bonuses, if it's Antichamber I'll definetly get it, but we'll see.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hah, yea I almost bought those during the summer sale too.. but Other games caught my attention.. but I almost did it again during another sale amazon had.
Though something ended up happening and the money I could have spent on sales went to somewhere else.. still picked up "The Last Remnant" though. ( Good game so far )
Thankfully I do have 1 USD to spare :P Sad that I could not spare more tho. I think this is the 2end best bundle I have seen so far on HiB. Depending on what the bonus games turn out to be it might even be the best for some people that is for sure.
Comment has been collapsed.
what they have always done is bta for the games that are bta. if you get below average in the first week you get bonus games that are added to the bta later on in the 2nd week.
this time if you don't bta in the first week you don't get any bonus games. can't get below average early and get the bonuses when they add them anymore. and can't bta after they're added and get them according to support on twitter
Comment has been collapsed.
You got some of the bta games, check yourself - http://indiegamebundle.wikia.com/wiki/Humble_Bundle
"Beating the average price added Dustforce. Those who purchased before Sep 25 or beat the average also received a key for Bit.Trip Runner, Gratuitous Space Battles, Jamestown, and Wizorb."
"Beating the average price added Dungeon Defenders, Legend of Grimrock, The Basement Collection, Offspring Fling! and Cave Story+, with the last three also available to those who paid less than the average before December 27."
Comment has been collapsed.
...you have no idea what we're talking about here do you? bonus and bta are two different words. there is no "gimped version" of bta. that isn't a thing
the bta was Dungeon Defenders and Legend of Grimrock
the bonus was The Basement Collection, Offspring Fling! and Cave Story+
those were two different things.
Bta at any point and you got the bta and the bonus
buy below average the first week and get the bonus (but certainly not the bta)
Comment has been collapsed.
....Of course you always get the bta games if you bta, and of course you never got bta games for $1 instead of beating the average.
But what you used to get was the bonus games for all purchases in week 1 and bonus games for all bta purchases in week 2.
allegedly what you get now is bonus games only for bta purchases in week 1 and only regular bta games for bta purchases in week 2 since you didn't buy bta early to get the bonus. at least based on support's twitter post. (But I hope it was just poor word choice combined with his skimming the question and basically answering something that wasn't asked(my theory is support didn't read and instead answered the question he was expecting "do we get bonus for below average purchases if they're early" with a "no" rather than the question actually asked of "can we get bonuses if we bta later (or if I buy now and add money to bta from the download page?)" which was supposed to be replied with "yes" and this is all a misunderstanding. so somebody should teach support to read before replying lol :P))
Comment has been collapsed.
Wait--- is it correct, that in Week 2, I won't have the possibility to buy the whole bundle with a BTA purchase if the bonuses are to my liking?? I have to go out on a limb now and hope for good bonuses? And hope that they won't just chuck in games from past HIB's? Damn...
Comment has been collapsed.
Basically the only change with this bundle is you MUST BTA with your purchase to get the new games next week. You can wait until they are added, but the BTA price might be higher by then.
No more buying the bundle for $1 in the first week and getting the extra games added in the second week.

Fez is worth the full price IMO
This bundle is worth every cent some really great games for such a low price!
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah me too, just a wee annoyed that right after that it comes out in a bundle. but hey now I have two of it and have to figure out what to do with the second, so not all bad I s'pose
Comment has been collapsed.
Could be the best (indie) Bundle ever.
Mark of the Ninja is an awesome game
Fez I only demo'd but looks really fun platformer puzzler.
Trine2 is great!
FTL is pure awesomness!
Never played Brutal Legend.
Comment has been collapsed.
Played Brutal Legend on the console. It is a good game in all truth. Though some people do not like the parts of the game that was similar to the game called "Sacrifice".
( During those parts you get resource buildings and create troops to help you defend and attack. )
Comment has been collapsed.
Brutal Legend has parts that are similar to Sacrifice!? Goes into a happiness-induced seizure
Sacrifice is one of my favorite games of all time.
Comment has been collapsed.
Its for some of the battles you have vs some of the bosses in the game. Also the multiplayer element is that battle style as well. So you make resource towers, and troops in order to try to kill the enemies towers/troops and their Stage.
If you die, you will respawn after a time, however if your stage gets destroyed, you loose. So like I said, its sort of like that game. Not 100% mind you, but fairly close.

Would anyone mind taking my Sporcle quiz? Test your bundle knowledge! Feedback is appreciated!
And here's my Weekly sale version!
Comment has been collapsed.
I own almost all of these, still got it anyways. :p
I predict Rogue Legacy, Electronic Super Joy, and Papers, Please. The thing is, though...
Still hopeful though
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm... Rogue Legacy.. I admit if that where to be added I would want to bump up my amount just for it.. though I doubt I will be able to this month due to how tight my wallet is due to some, unfortunate things going on.
Well, if they do add that one.. here is hoping I can spare enough to get it :P
EDIT
Another possibility would be "Hell Yeah!".
Comment has been collapsed.
I'd definitely want Rogue Legacy in this bundle, but I'd be fine with it in the next bundle. Rogue Legacy by itself can sell a bundle. Total Biscuit sold me on it.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's what I want, but I'm more pessimistic.
Although Humble Bundle has surprised me before, and this is an "official" numbered one so its not that much of a stretch to include one.
I'd guess Antichamber or Game Dev Tycoon myself

Edited: just got it
Paypal Exchange rate: 1 GBP = 1.53254USD
So instead of paying £2.88 for $4.55 you'll be paying "£2.97"

If you BTA after the games are added you will still get them, right? Some folks seem to be confused.
