Indeed, lucky that I decided to skip this exact month because there was exactly 0 games of interest to me (already own full version of Blops 3). Next month is almost a lock for subscription, I want to try Soma.

What a carpy ass Monthly Bundle. Last month's MB was infinitely better because of KR0 and TIS-100.

That said, I'm gonna be a chump and sub to this upcoming month to get SOMA. So glad I didn't get it for half off when it was discounted.

I kinda wished I subscribed because I still need to get The Jackbox Party Pack 2. Subscribing this month for SOMA is tempting though.

Someone here did praise Random Access Murder if I recall correctly though, I think it was Anteater or someguyinahat? Either way, it looks the most interesting of the bunch.

The Humble Originals have been tweeted out a week before the bundle launch. Gunmetal Arcadia Zero, Catgirl and Salad, and Disc World were all known.

Jackbox makes it worth it for me. I want soma, but for some reason it says I need to pay. Despite having the 12 month sub.

There's a 12 month prepay sub? That might be a flaw in the system, you could probably email them and have them charge it for you.

Did the 12 month sub get you those early games before?

Always thought the early game was just for new subs but I'm probably wrong on that
Click to expand...

You get the early game as soon as you commit to paying. So you can just let it ride out and bill at the normal time and you'll get it then, or have it charge on demand. That's the same if you're new or not.

Annoys me to open that pretty mediocre bundle's key page and have a full screen prodding me to buy the real version of CoD.

However I want SOMA so they got me again.

No clue, gonna try and get some answers

Do you pay 130 bucks up front with that sub? I think it only acts as a promise to pay for a year straight.

It seems like they just added it. First time I noticed it.

Ahh ok. But still then it should be a 11 dollar charge. It's asking for 12. I'll wait for support.

In the beginning there was a new subscriber setup that was based on a previous month's game, but they seemed to realize that was dumb and switched to the "get a game in advance" model which is much better.

Well, last months humble was a little disappointing for me, but still enough I was interested in to justify my $12. This month, however, is pretty damn meh :( Ah well, Soma has been pretty high on my wishlist, so I guess they probably have me for the next month, anyway.

I suppose I deserve what I get. lol

Arkham Knight worth €7.5?
(I liked what I played of Asylum and City)

It's basically those games but with more forced usage of the batmobile to solve puzzles. Driving is actually less disorienting than grappling everywhere, but overall you will feel like your every movement is scripted. An OK play if you're a big Bats fan. (I haven't completed it for the record)

If Poi is actually good then I'll be happy enough with the bundle. Especially if I can flip some of the other stuff. Soma I'll definitely be flipping.

Quadrilateral Cowboy is open-source on the Internet.

Doesn't a source code kind of allow you to play the game for free if you're that savvy?

You'd be missing some assets, but still mindblendowing move from the dev.

The game is DRM-free anyway, so they really do not care about piracy, they trust the user.

why are some files capitalized and some files not capitalized

what kind of insane unregulated programming is this

you wouldn't need to be super savvy, really, specially since you get the visual studio solutions and stuff

but it's probably easier to pirate the game
