Different time. I believe that people have gotten more used to buying games, especially indie ones, over time, so studios don't need to resort to bundles so soon just to get the exposure. IMO Humble Choice still offers amazing games for the price, Fanatical has a nice bundle from time to time as well. IG and Groupees probably don't have the name/contacts to reel bigger games into their bundles anymore.

Just checked my HB account and my first bundle was Humble Indie 2 from December 2010:
Paid $7.64, finished Machinarium and Revenge of the Titans, tried but haven't finished Braid and Osmos. Haven't activated Cortex Command yet, wonder if it will work.

If you open a ticket with support and include the sub id they can create the missing giveaway.

$1. Steam codes and DropBox links sent directly by e-mail.
Bundles used to be a lot cheaper with a minimum 1 cent for HIB and 1 dollar for other merchants, regardless of quantity and quality. But nowadays, BundleStarsFanatical and HumbleIndieBundle have bundles with multiple AAA GOTY for less than 5 dollars, so there's really no comparison.

I don't think it's been removed, I can still buy it in the Steam store, and it shows in my games list.
I think maybe the Gold edition has been removed, but if it's just the DLC that makes it gold, then that's also still available in the store.

ok, i'm dumb... guess it's official, now. i've never noticed that "Store page"...
key i've activated (and gave away) was for Gold edition. This one shows as not owned, here, tho.
also, just noticed SG can create giveaways for DLC Origins, that still has Paradox as publisher... while base game only has Nitro Games as developer...
dumb and confused. as usual! :D
edit: ok, found the one i have: https://steamcommunity.com/app/254040

The early bundles weren't anything special. I think that the impression that there were good comes mainly because there was a lot less garbage on Steam then. Still, I'd say that in later years it became easier to get high profile games for cheap or for free.
