How much do you enjoy this bundle?

View Results
[Recurring subscription] After I survived Through The Darkest of Times, Humble has a decent month again. I regret nothing.
[New subscription] I see some amazing titles in here and if I use one of those T3 promotional coupons / discount emails they have been pumping out the past weeks, I’ll get it even cheaper.
[Maybe subscribe] My lockdown budget and I are going to have a long hard talk about whether We can afford some Little Big splurging.
[Pause] In this particular selection, the bad / not interesting games outweigh the good ones for me. I don’t see why I should waste a paid-for month.
[Cancelling] Too much hassle to pause every single month. Once I complete the cancellation minigame, I'll have some fresh peace of mind.
[Non-subscriber, will not buy] This time you don't need to Distrust the quality of the games; sadly they're not particularly my thing.
[Potato] My Humble account was banned/disabled because of gift links, so even if I wanted to buy it, I couldn’t.

This is a really good one, makes up for last month

I was going to pause yesterday because I dont care much for horror games, but I was already paused since last month. I though you had to repause every new month. It says it will unpause September 4 now :)

Have this happened to anyone else?

I believe it said something like "if you claim now you can't make gift link".
I suppose if I had only claimed some of the games, I could later make gift links for the others, but I don't know how it works.

I bought this bundle, but refunded it because all games had some problems to them. How do you manage to make a bundle with only problem games? (I found out by reading negative reviews in Steam).

Some of them:
Vampyr - has problems with finding the way in the game.
CoC - Ugly graphics, frustrating sneak scenes.
Darkest of Times - Leftist propaganda (comparing Trump to Hitler?)
Hello Neighbor - 38% on metacritic, pretty much says it all (they even show the score on the page, how dumb can you be?) (Actually tried the pre-alpha as well, and it was total crap so)
We Were Here - Need 2 players (retarded?), difficult puzzles.
American Fugitive - Some people say it will be the thing you hate most in life.
Coma - This one actually seems ok, but not my thing.
Automachef - Too difficult.

Overall, a bundle of useless games. Now you can say i was dumb in the first place to get it. That is right, i was. Overall i don't like this new system since it is more expensive and it has less good games than before, compared to "monthly".

But of course you get a bad impression from the games by specifically looking out for bad reviews? What were you expecting?

I've only played the first 2 We Were Here games out of these but to say that literally the point of the game (solving puzzles with a friend) is a problem with the game is pretty stupid.

If anything, having it in a bundle your buddies also pay for, makes it more desirable than getting it on steam just for yourself

What if you have no friends to play with and want to buy this bundle? Literally that is an almost 10% loss in value right there. And it is only local co op if i remember correctly so you need an actual real life friend too. That qualifies as bad in my book. At least let us play with bots if nothing else?

I can't stand horror games. That doesn't mean horror games are bad.

No, it isn't local co-op, it's online.

I like horror games, it was just this game in particular (and all other horror games in the bundle) that did not appeal to me.

Fascist rhetoric, fascist policies and completely out in the open undying love and adoration of white supremacists everywhere for this current leader and administration but oh yeah it's 'muh leftist propoganda'. Should have payed more attention in history class instead of watching anime like a typical trumptard gamer.

I actually read books on WW2 though. And i can say this game is anti-Trump propaganda. He actually helps Israel too instead of 90% of the world that don't even want Israel around, for example most of Europe sadly. I would say yes, this game is very narrow minded and pretend to give a fuck about the jews and Israel but really don't. (And i actually visited both Israel and Auschwitz as well before). Fact is i'm a jew myself partially.

I'm confused. You're partially Jewish? What does that even mean? Are you simply implying that you believe in certain aspects of the religion, but not others?

And please, forgive any ignorance. Being agnostic myself, I'm not exactly full of religious knowledge, and I'm actually intrigued how someone can be part Jew.

Part of the jewish heritage on one of my parents side. Not practicing the jewish faith but the christian. That would make me a christian jew. As well as someone can be part nigerian i'm partly jewish.

Is it a coupon valid for HB store purchases or also Choice subscription?
Might make it an even better deal then, especially if you also get the coupon for the tier 3 bundle / new account offer:
$9 => Double Fine T3 & this choice minus Vampyr & $5
sounds better than
$9 => Double Fine T3 & this choice including Vampyr

..at least if the $5 can be used for something reasonable.

its a Humble Store coupon, sry for not clarifying
if Vampyr in your wishlist it would be worth more than 5$
but then again value is relative ^_^

Had a pause for some month. This is worth buying (in my opinion). Even better: you're getting all 12 games this time.
