If you've actually used these before, please tell us about it in the comments below.

The Monthly bundle is in 4-5 days.
That can explain a bit.

But yes, seems there were fewer bundles in June.

bought T1, instead of RPG Maker VX Ace - Fantastic Buildings: Medieval (DLC) i got this:
The product code you've entered requires ownership of another product before activation.
If you are trying to activate an expansion pack or downloadable content, please first activate the original game, then activate this additional content.
SteamDB - Install - RPG Maker MV - Fantastic Buildings: Medieval

I created a giveaway for this DLC ... very curious to see what the winner ends up with!
Comment has been collapsed.
Got the same thing, rather odd to put DLC in a tier which the base game doesnt come in, could be a bait to upgrade to tier 3 or just a mistake as there is the "Fantastic Buildings: Medieval" DLC in 3 separate versions of RPG Makers, having all identical descriptions so who knows at this point
Comment has been collapsed.
Bought tier 4, NA region.
These are provided DRM-free:
Wild West Music Variety Pack
Animations Collection 2 - Quantum
Animations Collection III: Thaumaturgy
Tyler Warren RPG Battlers - 1st 50
Tyler Warren RPG Battlers - 2nd 50
Seraph Circle Monster Pack II
Medieval Dungeons is a unique Itch.io link, unfortunately mine is bad. Instead of going to https://pvgames.itch.io/medieval-dungeons (as listed on the card on the bundle page) it goes to https://archeia.itch.io/visustella-school/. Putting this on the back burner for now, will contact support on Monday if it's not fixed by then.
The other 45 have a Steam key and I don't see any region restrictions listed when creating a gift link.
Comment has been collapsed.
Minor update, these two are currently unavailable. Direct download gives a "NoSuchKey" error page, and the torrent tracker returns "Unregistered torrent".
Tyler Warren RPG Battlers - 1st 50
Tyler Warren RPG Battlers - 2nd 50
Medieval Dungeons is no longer an itch.io link. It's now DRM-free under Other.
Edit: Forgot to mention that your table lists "RPG Maker MV - DS Resource Pack" in tier 4 instead of "RPG Maker MV - DS+ Resource Pack".

Many thanks for the info and corrections. Much appreciated!

Update, these are now available to download (fixed on July 7th apparently):
Tyler Warren RPG Battlers - 1st 50
Tyler Warren RPG Battlers - 2nd 50
This is a new DRM-free download as of July 8th, per aperanger's post:
Fantastic Buildings: Medieval
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks!
I'm a bit confused though.
Before the change, T1 contained a Steam key for RPG Maker MV - Fantastic Buildings: Medieval.
But in the reply from aperanger's post, the HB support agent mentions "Fantastic Buildings: Medieval for RPG Maker VX Ace".
So, did they include a Steam key for RPG Maker MV - Fantastic Buildings: Medieval by accident when they actually wanted to include a DRM-Free of RPG Maker VX Ace - Fantastic Buildings: Medieval?
And now, after they switched it to DRM-Free, is this item for RPG Maker MV or for RPG Maker VX Ace?
Comment has been collapsed.
Good question, just checked my download and it looks like both VX Ace and MV are included as there are folders for each of them.
Comment has been collapsed.
Very unsure if i should buy tier 1 or not. I'm not really interested in making RPGs currently but i had in mind before to build one. But i think i own some RPG maker already from the Ukraine bundle so maybe i'll skip this.
Comment has been collapsed.
The Ukraine Bundle very ungenerously provided only RPG Maker VX. If you're actually going to be using an RPG Maker program, it's definitely worth the $1 dollar to upgrade to VX Ace, which is a lot more customizable and is still getting some degree of community support.
Comment has been collapsed.
What are the contents in the base version though? Can you actually make an RPG game without buying lots of DLCs?
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh yeah. The RPG Maker DLC on Steam is literally cosmetic (or aural, I guess, since there's some royalty-free music packs being sold as well) -- the functionality to make an RPG from start to finish is there. The default assets have been used in so many projects that a game without some degree of DLC, custom art, or Photoshopping of the existing materials is never going to be visually exciting to anyone who's played a few RPG Maker projects, but you can still create a compelling story/world/character, a balanced battle system, etc. if you're creative (or have free time) enough.
I personally bounced off VX Ace (and earlier RPG Maker engines) before things finally clicked for me in the much easier-to-use RPG Maker MV, but there are so many Youtube tutorials out there nowadays that it shouldn't be too difficult to get started. Actually finishing projects is reserved for only the most organized of brains, though...
Oh, as for regular VX vs. VX Ace: VX apparently puts crazy restrictions on how many tilesets you can use, meaning you can only choose a very limited amount of graphics per map vs. VX Ace that lets you choose up to 5 spritesheets of graphics per map. VX Ace also has some QOL improvements like letting you right click and immediately have the game set up events like doors, treasure chests, etc.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm interested in RPG makers per se, but my backlog aside I fear it'd just clutter my collection in the meantime. But if I ever got to... haha, yeah right.

Please do correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure T1 is RPG Maker VX Ace - Fantastic Buildings: Medieval, and not "RPG Maker MV". Haven't redeemed it to confirm and humble does not clarify, but it would make no sense for them to give away the MV version instead of the VX Ace version when everything else in T1 is for VX Ace
Comment has been collapsed.
The subs list is from someone who purchased the bundle and tried all the keys.
It's definitely for RPG Maker MV, as absurd as it seems.
Humble Bundle made a total mess of this bundle (check the note in the OP), so it's really no wonder...
Also confirmed here.

I'll be skipping any great deal for a couple of months now simply because I've got other better stuff to do. It's better to learn Unreal Engine, Unity or Godot.
Comment has been collapsed.
guess they're trying to trick people getting the Medieval DLC in tier 1 to upgrade to tier 3 to use it...
or Humble read the key wrong and thought it was for VX Ace...
either nefarious or incompetent... maybe both

Does anyone make any actually good games with these? I vaguely remember playing several many, MANY, years ago. The Way had a really good story ...I think? This seems like a good place for recommendations if anyone has any!

Personally, I enjoy RPG maker for what it is and how I use it. Many "developers" of course oversaturated the market with cheapo games that have little thought put into them, which is unfortunate as someone who enjoys old school JRPG style.
Myself, I like to use it to flesh out and visualize story and progress design for games I am working on. Mostly they are internal use, though music and sound assets are nice because they can be used across multiple projects and media. Portrait assets can also be useful for other projects, though that tends to be a touch more limited depending on the type of project, and I would only use them as stand-ins until custom assets made for the project are made.

And it's not clear from their reply which item is now delivered as DRM-Free.
