Humble is a shadow of its former self
The pathfinder bundles have been pretty good
No doubt.
They have 30+ bundles listed at the moment and I’m sure some of them are great but I’ve unsubscribed from their notifications, they’ve lost some focus and quality control from when each bundle was a notable event.
They sold to IGN a few years ago.
It was also when they introduced a $7 minimum humble tip for the bundles.
it lets me customise the tip/charity/bundle organiser ratio and i’m 85% sure I’ve gone under $7 for the tip multiple times
You can still customize it, but it has hard minimum at what I think is $7. The old humble had no minimum at all. They also deceptively set the “default” cost 1 tier above the actual “get all the items” cost for bundles. A very irritating and obvious dark pattern.
Just IGN brutalizing a beloved name in gaming via enshittification to make its money back.
Instead of speculating I just tried and the minimum you can go on the bundle above is 3,75 EUR.
Apparently the minimum to Humble is generally between 15% and 30%
This bundle had no minimum to the publisher but some bundles apparently do.
I think they got bought by IGN, if I am remembering correctly. That tells you plenty.
corporations ruin everything they touch
I don’t know what 4 knowledge bombs do, but they make me feel glad I don’t play that shitty game.
Edit: Jesus Christ they’re almost $30!!! I can buy Pacific drive for that!
Humble is still around? I stopped once the deals got enshittered
Yes, of course. They are probably the biggest key store around.
Any sweet deals lately? Sometimes I miss the days of adding batches of random shovelware games from BundleStars and HumbleBundle to my Steaming account for pennies on the dollar
It’s utterly shocking that RS is still going… everything about the game has not aged well in any sense and yet there’s still 50K people who still play that trash at a time.
It looks like the number of people who RuneScape (3?) is less than that, but OSRS seems to have a healthy population.
It’s a genuinely good game for the “watching numbers go up as I also watch youtube on another screen” crowd.
Somehow in find it still worse that old original charged for crappy midis to have sound in the game
