Humble Bundle July 2023 Membership (PCDD): The Outer Worlds, Temtem, Yakuza 4 Expired

They run out of keys sometimes. It isn't something new. it's happened many times before. They send you an email later telling you they have keys available.

Just telling people before the conversion possibly ends in a two days. I understand people not wanting to be stuck on subscription for three years. Some people might not be aware that it still works or that it might be the end for getting GPU for cheap.

100% agree. Yeah its great to gamepass these but to not own any of them kills the deal. Personal opinion.

Id rather pay for a game once and have it forever tied to me account to play in many different PC builds and hardware of my choosing. Ive been building my Steam account for 17 years now and can still play the very first games I added to the platform nearly two decades ago. None of which I might add have I ever paid full retail price for. Unless it was some $1-4 indie game.

This has happened to me multiple times and I got an email's saying keys were back in stock only to go to grab my key and get the the keys are out of stock again.

These are digital goods, it is very easy to know how many keys were purchased by their marketing department and sell ONLY that number of packages!!!!!

When I buy something I OWN it I don't OWN the rights to try and RACE the internet to a website to get a CHANCE of getting the product I paid for!!!!

I did eventually get all of the keys I paid for a year + later. I was not happy as a customer and cancelled my membership since.

Just my opinion but monthly membership bundles offered have steadily declined in the quality of games offered over the years and recently I was mostly getting games I would not play anyways!

I had three years of GPU bought up and used it for barely a week and went back to buying games. I'm still on the old original humble bundle plan.

No idea how long you have been following them. IGN bought them a few years ago and people have been complaining ever since. It took a little time, but I think they have been struggling to be loyal to their roots while trying to maximize profits since they acquisition.

Count me in for Team Don't Get a Subscription. I saw this and was pleasantly surprised I recognized the bigger draws. Humble Choice has been a bust in my eyes and don't understand who picks the games, but the Humble Bundles and Choices I have snagged have been awesome for me. We are living in an age for gaming where emulating massive number of older console games requires minimal modern hardware. If that isn't your thing, the number of "must play games" from the last 20 years that are available for less than a pizza is so big, it is hard to not have an insane backlog of games. I know everyone is different. I think subscriptions for games are like subscriptions for cable bundles - pay X for 100 channels when you are only interested in 1-2, but if you want that one you really want, you need the bigger subscription. I remember when Netflix lost some of the popular shows because rights got too expensive and people started getting annoyed they would need additional services. The people with them purchased were laughing because they were not reliant on who owned the rights. At some point these services will suffer the same fate as the big TV streaming services are currently experiencing where cutting back what is provided becomes necessary for profitability.

I've been a subscriber for about six years and have never missed a month. It's one of the best deals in gaming, along with GamePass. I pay the annual amount and sometimes there's a discount code. I think I'm paying about $7 a month right now, so that is less than $1 a game. No matter what they release, I'm getting a good deal. I have two thousand games in my collection now thanks to Humble Bundle. It's hard to complain about the value, but I see people do it all the time.

It's not so much a complain about the value rather if the games are your preference. I have like 900 games between Steam, Epic, etc. but the vast majority were giveaways or "bundle fillers" in my eyes. Many are games I have never even heard of. So the value proposition for $12 for 6 games is obviously there, but there are many times where at most I am interested in one. So now we are talking $12 for 1 game + 5 games I don't care about. I can get 1-3+ games easily that are on my wishlist for $12 total on sale.

It's kind of the same argument I have against GamePass. I saw someone else say they don't bite if there are less than 3 games they would be interested in. I'm usually okay with 2-3 games, if they are the more expensive ones. Usually I can find 1-2 indie games in a given bundle that looks interesting, but not a draw/desire to buy. If you have 2000 games, what percentage of those have you even installed never mind beaten? 🙃

These games look garbage this month. Why do all Humble Bundle Membership games reach frontpage? Shilled?

They obviously don't look like quality games...
