Would you give this deal an All-Star rating?

View Results
[I like the spotlight game(s)] Hell yes. Desperados III alone is worth that price! It costs substantially less than its lowest Steam store discount (so far), and I get some extra games too!
[I keep my subscription only for the Humble Store discount] A tad annoying, but what other Choice do I have?
[Only with limited deal] At $6 it’s worth it a million times. At full price, it ain't worth it.
[Happy] I’m absolutely thrilled about this month’s games. I could really use a distraction to stop worrying about the current world crisis.
[Neutral] I’m not sure what to say. Lately the weekly bundles seemed to be much better than Choice, and they cost roughly the same.
[Pause] Looking at this selection makes me very salty. Time to pause, AGAIN… Don’t think I can’t find the Pause button, IGN, even if you hid it really well this time!
[Disappointed] When I saw Mass Effect™ Legendary Edition, my heart pounded with excitement. Until I saw it’s an Origin key, LOL.
[Canceling the subscription] I was expecting a big quality boost after the recent Choice redesign, but after seeing both last month’s and Evan this month’s lineup, little hope Remains. Perhaps it’s best to just cancel my subscription altogether.

Honestly I wouldn't have taken anything from this if it weren't for Man of Medan. I can't complain too much, I already got my money's worth out of the $99 for a year deal...not sure if it's with stuff I'll actually play or if it's just going to sit in my Steam library but...yeah, I'm not really a fan of the Origin key. I'll probably claim it eventually, but I'm not really a fan of having to download 10 different launchers just to play games even though I am aware that some games require you to have other launchers downloaded even if you own the game on Steam.

I'm not interested in an Origin key, but I still think it's worth it for Man of Medan and Desperados. Can probably play Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl with my nieces. Red Solstice 2 (Chicken Police would have been better), Nebuchadnezzar, and Police Stories all look decent. Already have Evan's Remains.

They don't want Origin keys. Just accept that. Doesn't matter if to play it on steam you still need their fucking client.

Already have the ME games, police story, and Desperados 3. The former and latter are great games and incredible value for the money, but the rest doesn't seem very interesting, so it'll be a pass for me.

Desperados III, Nebuchadnezzar and Police Stories all on my wishlist, but not sure that's enough for me to re-activate, this month will be tight financially so might just try and trade for them. Still, not a bad monthly compared to recent ones IMO :)

Mass Effect LE and Red Solstice 2? Yeah, totally worth $12, I don't care if the ME key is origin. Because, you know, the "steam version" is just a launcher that boots origin to actually launch the game.

I just wish the "come back to humble choice for $6" email I got last month was this month instead.

Even though I know you're absolutely right, it's just a link to Origin basically, but still irks me that it's not the Steam version. It seems like such a small difference for EA to supply Steam keys instead of Origin keys.

All in all, I think it's a good bundle, just not my thing. There's only one game I'm kinda interested in, but not even enough to grab the bundle with the $4 coupon HB threw at my face when I paused. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I already have Mass Effect, on Steam, and I STRONGLY dislike strategy games (so no Desperados, Nebuchadnezzar and Red Solstice for me). I was waiting for a rebundle of Man of Medan, but 12$ would be way too much.. I would have enjoyed Chicken Police, but it's gone. It's a pause and I will definitely not unpause if I have no solid discount.

Just got this reply:

Hi there,

"Thanks for reaching out to Humble Bundle Customer Support. Unfortunately, this title is not available in your area, so we offered a replacement key instead. I apologize for the distress this has caused."

Funny thing is, it is available in my area

Lmao, got the same reply as well. Feel like the replacement is not even comparable.

The funny thing is, I won Man of Medan GA last night and can redeem the key successfully. So, where in the side of universe they are when they say it's not available in our area?

Nonetheless, will pause this march monthly for sure since I got what I want from GA. :)

There is a massive amount of anti-Origin comments, when the main complaint was always the unnecessary program having to run on top of steam in the first place. But now that's fallen back to just "achievements, library, etc."

Those aren't real issues. And I certainly won't be waiting to pay far greater price on Steam to get those abilities, when, let's face it, our libraries are already fractured across numerous platforms.

The rest of us will be enjoying Mass Effect on Origin while these complainers stick to their principles and will not be enjoying it...because muh screenshots!

You might be underestimating the psychology involved here. People can be pretty attached to their Steam account. And some people are VERY serious about their Steam achievements.

I have RDR2 on the Rockstar client. After playing for a couple of hours, I realized that I really missed taking screenshots. So I added it to Steam as a non-Steam game, and now my screenshots are attached to my Steam account.

Your library might be fractured across numerous platforms, but every single game I own is on Steam. Some people just don't want or need another client. It's that simple.
You might consider their reasons unimportant, but that's not up to you. It's none of your business. Who are you to judge or criticize them?
Are you ok with Origin? Good for you. Just don't pretend you are better than everybody else.
I was never interested in ME, so I'll never play it anyway. But that being an Origin key is one of the reasons I canceled my subscription.
I don't buy or play any game on Steam that uses another client. I just don't want to. I have many other games to choose from. Not being able to play a game because it's not on steam is not really a concern. Couldn't care less. It's a matter of choice. One that you must respect if you want to be respected as well.

And yes, don't assume that everybody's library is fractured across various platforms.
If it's fractured for you, fine.
But stop assuming things about other people and trying to force your way of thinking on them, because you know what they say about assuming things.

A bad bundle for me. If I didn't own a lot it would be pretty nice but I already own Desperados III, Mass Effect Leg Edition, and Man of Medan. The only other game I want is Red Solstice 2. Sucks to pause since I'd lose the 20% discount but when it really comes down to it I don't care enough. I've barely bought any games from the Humble store in quite a while so I'd rather just save my paid months for games I don't own and want more of.

2 years ago

To be honest it seems most games I've looked at in the Humble store are priced high (for games on sale -- i don't even consider full price games anyway), so it becomes the same as other stores after the 20% discount is applied. It was not always like that but lately it feels like a fake discount to me. So I don't care about losing the discount. If they offer a half price monthly or something that probably saves more than any potential 20% discount I would have bought.

Ya, I've gotten some pretty good deals from GMG and don't have to pay a monthly fee for that. I also need to just cut back on buying games. I have so many that I'll never get through them all and a lot I really want to play just keep getting pushed farther into the backlog and I forget them until I see it on sale or something and realize I already own it. lol

I just recently decided if I get free games from Epic, GOG, Amazon, etc. I'm removing them from my Steam Wishlist. I'm tired of double-dipping or just buying a game I already own somewhere that I can play it. I've played more games on gamepass also that I beat pretty quickly and have been glad I didn't buy them cause there was no replay value. Like right now I can play Shadow Warrior 3 on PSNow. So gonna work on beating that there to save me the extra money.
