The two Shantae games alone are priced as this whole bundle, the one from 2015 hasn't been below 10€ on Steam. So for me this is anything but overpriced considering how much some games go for on sales.

same opinion as mine, if it's definitive I might bite the 3 picks

Reading the small handful of comments from the developer; it does sound like it might be Humble Bundles decision and not theirs. Although nothing explicity says that.

Hey guys,
We don't have to go through this each time one key shop offers a bundle with one of our games.

We already mentioned everything we can say in this thread: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1137450/discussions/0/3051737278927935363/?ctp=6#c3046108141464049992

Furthermore, this is the Steam discussions, not the discussions from any other page.

Thanks for your understanding.

Cheers"

Gotta love them. I am not buying any game from that developer, ever.

I wouldn't count on it. It was a deliberate ploy.

There is a big difference between Choice bundles and Fanatical's Build Your Own bundles.
For Choice they have to offer a key to absolutely EVERYONE purchasing the bundle.
For this bundle though, they have the option to sell a specific amount of copies and then declare that they ran out of keys. Which is compatible with my theory that Steam limited their number of Steam keys too much to satisfy the demand for Choice.

So no, we won't see Encodya Steam keys from Choice. And neither Humble nor the dev are to blame.

How about Mighty Switch Force! Collection, includes 4 more games from Shantae devs.

Happy cake day! <3

Happy cake day!

If there are more games I want, I check the individual prices, consider which games are on sale frequently and then I choose the games which are the most expensive.

Happy cake day!

yeah I was also surprised by this XD

Well, good for you then?

Already bundled games obviously have been available for a better price. The unbundled games are limited and have a rather limited general appeal.
I only have one wishlisted game in this bundle and 10€ for that game plus another two I'm not interested in, isn't what I consider a good deal. Especially as I could get that wishlisted game for 9€. It's full price, without any discount.

Your cheapest dodgy grey market prices seem to be a bit off (ex: ~6.14 AUD for Encodya, with IDK what other extra fees on G2A added on top, or Beautiful Desolation also being a bit cheaper on Kinguin with a coupon), but yes, if you really need "not yet bundled but neither new" games these aren't wrong.

However, for us typical "crap for the backlog we'll never play anyway" buyers, the $3.33 are still quite a bit of money, if you consider that a regular bundle game will cost in the $0.40 to $0.8 range per key and how cheap people are getting pretty much high quality games from Humble Choice.

When I was your age, I could get a pretty nice burger from BK for A$4. To me it seems prices are up and quality is down, so I just don't go to burger chains anymore.

Good as a deal, bad as a bundle - if you like a single game, it's likely cheaper on sale than paying the 10€. Also the same price is likely a lot lower than you, compared to everyday living prices, than it is to me, living in Eastern Europe and paying full euro price. And some countries have it even worse. Idk, it's a complex situation, but seems like I could buy 10 hot apple pies instead of getting the 3 games. (Or eat 4 lunches at work,cook for likely double of that, or watch 2 movies in the cinema,
And, of course, it looks expensive compared to normal bundles or a monthly.

Personally I agree with you that it is a good deal for you, even for me, but as Fanatical lacks regional pricing, it may be still over 100% steam price.

That's a bummer..I saw it said low stock this morning.

Agreed - Was considering a purchase, but without that one it's a harder sell. Think it will restock?

It's back in stock.
