There was the odd diamond in the rough, but I agree it has been getting increasingly worse.

Weirdly enough I was staying subscribed because if I quit I’d lose my current price for good. Makes no difference now

Are they still overselling their bundles so they’re aren’t enough keys to redeem if you purchased it? I see that practice as being fraudulent.

The only relevant part. I hate when they bury news like this inside a couple of paragraphs of guff.

I never understood why someone would stay subscribed to it. Like just get it when there’s something you want from it that month and then cancel.

Oh great, another reason for me to not subscribe. Humble bundle stopped being so humble like a decade ago

Yup. I understood when they made the $1 minimum but pay what you what has basically been fraud for years now, ever since they started locking games behind an actual price. It’s just a bundle sale, and it’s not humble anymore

Annual prices are slightly cheaper, but they’ve been gradually squeezing that too. You can of course pause the months you don’t want, but it’s a somewhat obtuse process.

They run good deals on audio books and Pathfinder material every once in a while. Otherwise, yeah, been a while since I saw a game bundle that was worth the money.

The 20% discount on purchases is very nice, though the monthly offerings are extremely hit-or-miss. I’m not sure I’ll stay subscribed at this price, though. The value of the subscription is simply too unpredictable.

Yes. They do it with the monthly subscriptions, too.

While there might have been an odd diamond in the rough I saved so much by cancelling HB and just buying the game directly

I think they’re doing what they have to do to be honest. I don’t like that they fired everyone. I don’t like what they’ve done to their publishing. I am not particularly interested in buying their things anymore. I think a part of that is because they started so whimsically. Some of my favorite games of all time have come from the bundles. Things have changed, but every fudgin’ thing in this world has gone up. So clearly, even with a skeleton crew (that’s what they have to be running, right?) they more than likely were going to raise the price. Because they gotta do that capitalist thing.

I don’t like it. I have never liked it. I think this is more of a “is what it is” thing. For a hobby, it gives you a smattering of games for typically the price of one, on sale. It’s freakin’ stupid as hey-sauce it’s a subscription. Let alone that you need to jumpy through an insane amount of hoops to get your games/unsubscribe. My gal grabbed the one with The Thaumaturge recently, so I saw the lot first hand.

I think they really need to re-evaluate their next few steps however, or they will basically be nullified by whatever is next. If there is a what’s next, in gaming bundles. Not sure. I just tend to buy what I like, and what I like is weird.

I haven’t been excited for anything in a bundle for years. Their offerings have been garbage for ages.

The bundles have been pretty lackluster for a while now. Will this increase their quality?

i doubt it, but let’s see.

The 20% discount is completely theoretical. Very few games, if any, were discountable that low

I use it about once every two months. Most recently, Clair Obscur.

it was 6% off with max discount for everyone else though

The maximum discount you get is dependent on how long you’ve been a subscriber. 20% requires one year or longer of membership.

Man, maybe I should just cancel, I’ve been on this since the first one, back when it was $12, and I’ve got a 1500+ line document full of games I have for friends to pick birthday presents, and I use the 20% discount a lot, but I don’t think I’m getting the full subscription price for ff 14 out of this.
