In my opinion since a lot time ago not a good bundle, but still people buy it, the people have no taste or what?, i understand maybe 10.000 but 58.000 for a fail bundle? , really?

If you wanna do charity, you could just donate the money straight to a charity. They get a lot more that way.

+1, HB is a company, they just give a bit more to charity than most.

Just throwing it out there, but you're able to control how much goes to who. You could give 100% of your purchase amount to charity excluded PayPal fees.

But many people don't change it, so HB makes money along with the charities.

Brilliant point, except you can decide how your money gets split up (100% to charity, maybe?).

In the end however it is not you, who is spending the money to charity, but the developers of some games. You only demand them to spend that money to charity, that you gave them for their products.

If you want games, you should get them directly on a gaming store.
The developers get more that way.

It is a charity service, not a fan service.

Little tweaking, and ya got something. "If you want more games from a particular developer, you should get them directly from the developer. The developers get more that way, which they can use to make more games."
Well, as long as the developer actually holds the rights to the game, of course.

HB is a company, they started doing mostly good or very good bundles to grow up, after they got a lot of popularity their bundles quality started going down, tons of ppl defending them saying "don't complain is for charity" I say "Oh cool, but this is not a reason for me to buy every single thing that appears in their bundle(I won't spend my money on something I won't use)", but HB as a company should care about quality too, not just increasing price for bundles, putting games in what most ppl won't be interested and making repeats, and if you wanna do charity is as Ytharius said above.

wut? if they were for charity they wouldnt have made 900.000$ of profit for them selves in the humble store alone, not to mention all the profit from the "humble" tip which is probably in millions, that is NOT a charity, charities DONT earn money

Just because it's not to your taste doesn't make it a fail bundle. What's wrong with it? I've heard good things about most the games.

Pretty much any bundle is a great deal if you don't own any of the games and really want to play some of them. Whodathunkit

What's so awful about it? Some of us love playing android games every once in a while too, and getting The Cave with a bunch of stuff was never this cheap on any platform before.

Well, considering the fact that good bundles sell 1 mil+ copies, I would say that 58 000 is very low, even for a bad bundle.

Oh bugger off, mobile bundles are quite shitty, don´t pretend the contrary, i consider Groupees bundles better even when i buy them for 1 music album.

Just because not every god damn bundle it's an Origin bundle or some other AAA one that doesn't make it a fail bundle or a crappy bundle. Get a fucking grip already.

And this bundle actually looks pretty awesome. If i had an Android phone/tablet i would have bought it for sure.

I'd say it's about right. Humble Origin bundle sold 2.14 million times. So keep things in perspective.

No steam keys, so $.01 gets your 3 decent games and counts as another sale. I'm more surprised at the price rise on the weaker bundles.

!?

may i ask (the mods) why he got suspended? There was a thread a few days ago about bundles complaining, but i don't think he got against the rules, or at least from what i remember. Now i should re-read the FAQ. However, if this message is seen, may i get a precise quote of the rules explaining the reasons he got suspended? Thanks mods.

He has won Serious Same Complete Pack though he only has two of the games on his account, probably because of that.

Oh silly me! Few days ago a mod opened a thread about HB complains, now it is taken the first opportunity to suspend a user that complains about that. Nah, there can't be any relation. What was i thinking?
However if i get an official answer they may be able to remove every doubt.

They are actually pretty good mobile titles. Too bad my phone is indisposed, but I'm looking forward to playing them.

I agree recent bundles aren't as enticing but they're still good deals. Imagine you had to do a game bundle once every two weeks, not so many games are released in the course of 2 weeks that fit the bundle format so in the end, humble bundle has to lower the standards or repeat games, or even make ebook/music bundles to fill the gaps. Still quite a good portion of the payments go to charity so I don't think there's too much to complain about the bundles being less interesting.
