I've simply stopped bothering with them after visiting regularly. Nowadays I'd rather look at gog, bundlestars and dealzon. Sadly this seems to have happened after IGN bought them effectively stopping the decent bundles...

But some you are still in their 12 usd monthly deals, right?
 
I've been subscribed to the Humble Monthly Bundle since the start, of late there's been way bigger releases as part of the monthly bundles, which I've already in some cases picked up, but overall it's still a great way to get some awesome games quite cheap.
 
Fanatical is also another good site to keep an eye on, ever so often they have some bundle deals that hark back to the earlier days of Humble Bundle.
 
The monthly one is great, other bundles not so much anymore but I have a very big collection so. Otherwise for online, shop around : steam , humble , fanatical, cdkeys and there is another but can't recall the name.
 
They've incentivised their subscription tier, it's not been the same since then.

Fanatical drops some good deals on a regular basis

Got Shadow of Mordor GOTY for R67 and MGSV Phantom pain for R78 recently

Old games maybe, But thats me, I dont mind waiting for prices to drop. Cos they always do
 
They used to have some good deals especially their pay what you want bundles. Got the Telltale bundle but as I had a lot of the games on Gog I gave most of it to charity. Since then however they've gotten more and more watered down with them wanting to dictate how much you should pay to get the good titles. So I don't know.
 
I see shadow of mordor(full pack with all 'expansions') up in one of the bundles atm... in $1 tier... it was good, well worth $1
 
It didn’t look good this month and next month with COD 4 Battle Edition being the highlight, a-hem. Yeah, COD 4 is dead on PC in SA and you will need to upgrade to play the zombie modes.

Disappointed now in Humble Bundle. The quality is slowly dropping.

Nobody is happy with COD taking the monthly cover...

Yea i was kinda disappointed by it too

the last good humble bundle for me was when Hat in time was available
+ it had the escapists 2! and the garbage fire that was Conan Exiles
but hey Hat in time and escapists 2 are awesome

Agreed. What a waste to put COD as the main game. Ugh.. there is no SP in it...

Yes, and then Blizzard will dangle a upgrade option. It is baiting.

As per the May bundle,

As much as I love indie games, the bundle was also lacking quality. Wundersong isn't bad, but the rest... Not to mention that I'm a Monster was given away on Steam 3 odd months ago and that the one adventure game is the 3rd game in a series, and... Meh. AC wasn't bad, but that was the #1 title which gave people the choice, and determination, to participate in the donation.

Bad. Maybe the June bundle may still be redeemed. The COD Battle Edition was on sale some time ago, think $19 which was less as when it launched. Maybe the slightly less expensive title will result in a better indie/A-title bundle. Will have to wait on the second reveal.
 
I don't think so... I bought tons of bundles when they first started.... Now I haven't bought anything in more than a year.

At least those with 3-12 month subs may pause their month to rollover. I don't believe that June is going to do well on Humble's side. The CoD Battle Edition isn't even a complete game. People 'protested' on their social accounts, and then suddenly it turned positive. Influencers...

IGN know that this is mediocre, the latest bundles, close to all, happened to be games heavily discounted at the time.
 
Received a $6 off coupon for this monthly (50%). How is the single player on Black Ops 4? Don't really like Call of Duty anymore. Wonder if the rest of the unlocks be worth the $6.
