Would you give this deal an All-Star rating?
If it's not on Origin, then I will go with this month. But can't imagine origin key among steam key so skip a month then.
Comment has been collapsed.
Mass Effect on steam just launches Origin client so I don't think it matters that much honestly. I even appreciate it since it means fewer programs running
Comment has been collapsed.
Origin has the exactly same achievements but sure, I also like my stuff in a single library. On the other hand, things running through 2 launchers are just more problems for no reason so it is up to you if that +1 is worth the fact it messes up patching, uses more CPU and requires 2 services being online instead of 1.
I honestly prefer origin games on origin and uplay games on uplay because of that. There were some issues previously

Is it just my HB or did the "Subscribe!" banner at the top of the site go from $9.99 to $11.99 like a day ago?
Comment has been collapsed.
$11.99 is the standard price. You either saw a special offer or maybe the standard price in Euro, which is 9,99€.
Comment has been collapsed.
It somehow switched from Euro to Dollars, that is why it went from 10 to 12 :) I just didn't realise it

Kinda tempted to get it with 4$ discount for Desperados, but it's just base with no dlc. And really don't want to support this kind of bundles with origin or other platform keys.
Comment has been collapsed.
insta buy for me. all games worth 12 $. I have not ever skipped a month for some years. I don't care if ME LE is not a steam key, you have to launch origin on steam anyway and i don't want pay for the full price

Does HB still give discounts when skipping or pausing a month? I tried and they didn't offer me anything, not even the 2$ discount.
Comment has been collapsed.
Maybe you accepted one of those offers recently? It usually takes a few months for them to come up with another discount offer after you accepted one. They regularly seem to offer me $4 off until I actually use one of those coupons - that means saving the coupon and then pausing anyway right away seems to work, as long as you don't actually use the coupon. That's at least how it works for me, it may vary for each person, though.
Comment has been collapsed.
For me it`s every second month like clockwork (if I accept)
If I skip even with 4$ discount it transfers to next month. So one month full price and then I get skipping discount again.

It seems that they changed their marketing strategy from discounts to cashback for new customers.

I would've bit the bullet for $8 if only Man of medan was available in my region. Warsim doesn't even come close so I'll have to pass.
It's a fair offer for everyone else though :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yup, same as you and I will pass too since Man of medan wasn't available in my region.
It's really unfair that different countries get different games. Moreover, the number of games has also decreased compared to the past. My conclusion is their Choice is worse than before.
Comment has been collapsed.
Warsim really has nice reviews and I may even try it at a point, but that as a replacement for Man of Medan... it's wild
Comment has been collapsed.
They also replaced Chicken Police at the last second with Red Solstice 2, a game I don't care about and it has tons of dlc.
Comment has been collapsed.
Same, Man of Medan is unavailable in my region, which was the paramount reason for me to consider purchasing this bundle. Wouldn't go for even $6, but $8? Hell, no. I'll just laugh out and pass, as I had decided earlier.
Comment has been collapsed.
Indeed! It's really hard to justify the quality of bundle once you swap out man of medan with some indie game, and considering mass effect is for origin is yet another gripe based on your preferred choice of launcher which I think most would prefer steam here. The only headliner that remains is desperados so unless you're really dying to play it, $8 is fine, but at the end of the day, we're getting quite an inferior purchase compared to others.
So yeah, its be wise to pass this offer wherever man of medan is unavailable, but rest of the world should absolutely go for it!
Comment has been collapsed.
So you can get one of those two options, right? I see I've received the $8 one, too bad. The other one is even better ;D
Edit: still not bad. I might go for it ;)

Help! I am relatively new to Humble purchases outside the U.S. I live in the Dominican Republic (DR), which is more generally grouped into Latin America (Latam).
I saw the Region lock message above for Desperados 3 which lists Latam as included. But when I clicked on the various supporting links, I did not see either Latam or DR listed. I am "famous" for not not seeing what is right in front of my eyes. Can someone confirm if Desperados will (or will not) activate in the Dominican Republic?
Comment has been collapsed.
It should activate fine, Humble gives you a key for your region. It only becomes a problem when you want to give it to someone outside of your region.

I just bought the choice now for 7 euro for Mass Effect LE and was suprised I have 11 euro in wallet suddenly. I didn't know about the action at all, but it seems like sometimes even I am lucky. :-D
Comment has been collapsed.
No, I am not joking. :-D I am not buying the Humble Choice, because I hate subscriptions of any kind, I bought it only once in the past and cancelled before next month, but this time I saw it as a good way to get ME:LE cheaply, so I was planning to buy it. I just finally decided yesterday to not wait anymore and after buying it I saw I have 11 euro in my wallet. First I thought it is some kind of mistake, so I went here to realize I was just really lucky. :-D

Got $8 offer....but will skip..was intrested heavily on desparados 3 and men of Medan. But they are not giving men of Medan for our reason so still not subscribing

I got it as well, tho i might get it at 8$ , looks decent for 8 even for this choice
Comment has been collapsed.
I'd like to point out that you do keep your 20% discount if you cancel/or pause, as long as you come back before the next bundle. So you can keep pausing/cancelling to get discounts down the line and you won't lose the 20% discount.
Comment has been collapsed.
I had no idea. I wonder how long before they change this?
Comment has been collapsed.
Interesting, I asked this last month and was told that unpausing would still reset the discount.
But it seems you are right, according to Humble's FAQ.
Q: Can I avoid my stacking discount resetting when skipping a month?
_
If you successfully skip a month before auto-billing takes place (the last Tuesday of the month), you may resume at any time prior to auto-billing to avoid your perk resetting. However, once auto-billing has successfully completed, your stacking discount will be reset if you still choose to skip.
So you must unpause before auto-billing, otherwise your discount counter is reset.
Comment has been collapsed.
And it makes completely sense, because technically you're not pausing/skipping the month, hence you keep your discount.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, though I didn't expect them too, I thought they were trying to discourage people that pause/cancel every single month to get a offer, but thankfully that's not the case.

A Hat in Time added to humble trove (now app). They should've added it to a monthly's lineup instead lol. It would be good even as a repeat. But it has 0 value as a "humble app" game. Wat doink humble.

does the 20% discount not work on games that are on sale? was going to finally buy cyberpunk since its 50% off, but its price doesnt come down 20% more when i try to check out.
never really bought from humble before, but was going to cuz i plan to pause so was hoping to use the 20% first lol
Comment has been collapsed.
it generally works with other games but it looks like it doesn't with GOG games. keep in mind that even when it works it is extra 20% off in the discounted price and not the full price meaning a 50% off game will be 55% off in the end.
Comment has been collapsed.
A reminder that tomorrow auto-charge happens. So it's time to pause. Or to resume, if you want to keep your 20% discount.

Yes, you can, if you are talking about this Choice "bundle" - there are no region locked games. But if you talking about some other bundles - you need to check other bundle's threads here, because some time ago developers/Steam added region restricted keys, that cannot be activated/played in some regions i.e. in CIS.
Comment has been collapsed.
There is a region lock for Desperados III according to the OP which to me sounds like a US-key wouldn't work in CIS and vice versa. You even reported the RU/CIS sub yourself :D
Comment has been collapsed.
No it's just about which region get specific key. If game doesn't have CIS country in PurchaseRestrictedCountries attribute (like this) then key can be redeemed (or maybe I'm wrong :) ).
I.e. in my Library I have both Max Payne and Max Payne (RU), bought them while ago. These were separate purchases (RU version missing some censored content, that is why I've bought US bundle with VPN. I assume right now HB don't allow such purchases.)
Comment has been collapsed.
So HB's warning is just to be safe rather than sorry?
Comment has been collapsed.
As far as I know HB gifts are region locked - you will be unable to redeem gift from the another region (i.e. buy some bundle in cheap region and send a gift link to region where price is higher). Key can be redeemed in another region if there is no restrictions are set (that is why Lilly ask for confirmation for specific key - it could be ROW or specific region key). Don't know specifics of activation lock - I usually use info that other users provide here (from bundle's OP).
Comment has been collapsed.
Can you explain how this SUBs works? How can I find out sub of the certain game in the Steam shop, or bundle (Humble or Fanatical)?
Comment has been collapsed.
I use SteamDB extension to see which version I've got/own.
I.e. for Desperados III these subs (packages) exists - https://steamdb.info/app/610370/subs/, each sub contains one or multiple apps (game, OST, DLC). Some limitations can be applied to sub or app. Sometimes you can redeem different subs with the same game (app) - that is one of downsides of using subs (sometimes some weird things could happen with subs - like with Agony, devs or Steam removed Unrated version from sub and Unrated version was removed from user's Libraries).
For Max Payne there are 2 apps with different names - reflects that these apps (game versions) are different (i.e. different builds - i.e. from the 2nd version some content is missing).
Comment has been collapsed.
There should be a "forgot to cancel" late voting option. Never thought it'd happen to me, but here we are.. And I didn't want a single game from that bundle. All the ones I'd be interested in, I already have and have beaten.

Don't reveal any keys and contact support for a refund.

There are enough trader like:
https://www.steamtrades.com/trade/ra2ij/h-paypal-tf2-keys-w-humble-bundles-march-choice-priced
They pay 12€ for the full choice where you paid 9,99€ (?)
So you can go out with profit. If you revealed all the keys and didn't activate any of them - feel free to sell it to that guy for profit :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Please think twice before trading with resellers. The more games get resold, the less likely publishers and developers will be to bundle their (best) games in the future. So in the end we will be the ones who lose out.
Comment has been collapsed.
He accidentally bought the monthly because he "forgot to cancel" and now sits there with a bunch of keys he already revealed, already owns and can't do anything with it - not even refund.
What would be your best solution if not selling it to resellers? throw them in the trash bin? Let them collect dust for no reason?
Reselling would be the best option in order to make profit out of his mistake.
Comment has been collapsed.
Life is not all about profit. Don't make it out like the only options are making a profit 🤑 or throwing them in the trash 😢.
There are other options too: give the games away to friends, trade it for other games, make giveaways for it here, or whatever. In fact he already has a giveaway up for one of the games.
Reselling is also not without its risks. Humble will ban you if they find out you are reselling.
Comment has been collapsed.
At barter.vg, he can trade them for other titles, gamer to gamer.
Comment has been collapsed.
I agree, better to trade them if he can find something that interests him than to fuel resellers and discourage publishers/developers into bundling good games. Giveaway to friends or here is fine too
Comment has been collapsed.
Get into the habit of pausing as soon as the games drop. Humble will try to get you to unpause via discounts most of the time. For months you want to buy it anyway, just unpause on the final week before next month's games.
Unless it's you need the store discount, Trove or you think keys will run out, there's no point in leaving it running.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah I've always paused right away unless I knew right away I wanted the games. But for whatever reason, it just didn't work out that way this time. Actually, come to think of it, I didn't pause right away because I wanted to wait and see if I wanted anything from the store within the timeframe. Turns out I didn't, and then just forgot all about it. Completely my own fault of course.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't think you keep your discount anymore after a new bundle has been revealed. After that, you need to pay for Humble Choice first before you get your discount again.
So you can still pause at the start of the month. And if you want to later, you can unpause, pay, and use the discount.
You can even pause right after you've paid for Choice. While paused you will still keep the discount until the next month is revealed.
Comment has been collapsed.
+1. I could've sworn I had paused after seeing the lineup, but I guess I didn't, and furthermore I forgot that they buried the subscription status in Settings instead of accessible from the Humble Choice page like it was before they axed the price difference between classic & premium.
