LOL what a shit early unlock. Like that is your ONE featured title, not even part of the dual deals they have been doing?

a 26.99 game >_>

at least last month's revealed games are dope

Overcooked, Wuppo and maybe Nongünz. Not bad.

The rest? Not for me. I wonder if they're running out of Stardock games yet.

And Killing Floor 2? Meh.

Yeah, imagine what the rest of the bundle might be. I think there will be surprises.

Anyone not interested in Quiet City?

SSR was my GOTY 2016 and I didn't subscribe this month.

I have no interest in it but it's a 'stand-alone' game (i.e. not a key) so I'm not sure how I would give it to you. Send me a PM if you know a way, size is roughly 16MB.

been after Offworld Company and War of the Overworld for awhile too, Nongunz looks awesome (too bad it apparently flopped hard), and Wuppo is that semi-metroidvnia some people were shilling hard last sale I believe?

Overcooked is supposed to be good too but its not for me. Still, one of the better months in recent memory.

But yeah, Killing Floor 2 as the solo early unlock is a fucking joke, if only value wise (like compare to nba 2k17 / Pillars, which also had Burning Blood which is still a 49.99 game)

Hey, that's really kind of you to offer!

Maybe if we Friend up on Steam or something?

Not sure how non-key Gifting works.

by the way, Beholder... is really interesting. And fucked up. But mostly interesting.

Had 3 games in my wishlist: OTC, Wuppo and WftO... The tradition continues, when I don't subscribe the bundle ends up having games I want...

thats why you treat it like netflix and just forget about it.
 

dave is ok

aztek is ok
I wouldn't be surprised if he throws it up on increpare.com eventually, unless something with the arrangement with Humble keeps him from doing so

I'm hoping that the relatively low MSRP has a positive impact in leaving scope for some more high-priced games in the rest of the bundle. As ever, time will tell!

It's all good.

I know Lavelle has dozens and dozens of free games online.

I just kind of bug out when I hear he's up to something new.

looking back at this year exclusively and what they had as the featured title, you have to go back to January to find something with as low MSRP as KF2, which was Warhammer Vermintide at 26.99.

Then we had X-Com 2 in February
Warhammer Total War in March
The Witness in April, which was pretty shitty because it had been in that charity bundle recently at the time, but still, the msrp is 39.99 at least
Dirt Rally + Inside in May which made us go "wtf 2 games?"
Stellaris in June, not a full price game but still higher and more recent than KF2
Dark Souls 2 Scholar of the First Sin (39.99) in July
And last month Pillars + NBA 2K17, another great value duo.

Just seems weird but I guess they need to have their off months to balance it out? I dunno. Of all the games we had been predicting, fucking Killing Floor 2 certainly wasnt one of them. Hell Styx 2 has already been 50% off a bunch of times, make that the fetured title.

War of the Overlord is currently discounted (-65%) on steam. Any impressions of fellow gaffers ? And do you need all the DLC to enjoy the game or is the base game fairly good ?

Decided to grab this month's humble when One Piece being in it leaked. Good bundle.

I wonder if Wuppo being high in those hidden gems lists on Gamasutra and in Wok's later posts brought it to their attention.
