New Regional Pricing
In addition, Humble Choice is launching with regional pricing in the following currencies: EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, and NZD. However, if you keep your Classic plan, you will continue to be billed in USD.
Well I am on the classic and last month that was approx 17.75 or somewhere around thatā¦Itās still better than 20 CA and Donāt you only get 9 gamesā¦the classic gets 10ā¦???
OKā¦so now weāve all had time to ruminateā¦whatās the worst offering in the 10 games that make up Choice? Iām torn between X-Morph Defense or Aegis Defenders being the bottom of the barrelā¦but they all seem surprisingly ok.
R u saying u didnāt just keep/get yr sub active last month and are now paying $20 instead of $12? I hope not, and if not, then u can just have both cuz u get all games, not 9.
Iām still money poor and game rich, so Iām just a happy go lucky observerā¦and who doesnāt like ranking things in order of terribleness? And realistically, with Humbleās history, thereās no way that there are going to be more than 2 or 3 FANTABULOUS games each month so a basic sub is likely to be fine for most people.
Have to keep telling myself that Kiwami and Chasm are not actually that goodā¦BELIEVE BELIEVE BELIEVE!
wooow the new system is shtā¦ it just reveals your key right awayā¦
i donāt even have a clue what happens if i donāt āchoose nowā but just let it set past this monthās window and into the next humble monthly
do games disappear? do you keep the option of being able to choose whenever you wish/do you have to do it within this/X time frame? iām guessing if i select gift a friend it will also immediately make a gift link, basically you get your stuff used ānowā, instead of leaving it unrevealed for a later date like before??
dang this systems just seems so messy compared to how smooth it was beforeā¦
iām on classic plan, so i still technically have to choose my games (even tho this month i ofc get all)
but when you click it, you get 2 options, āget gameā<-- insta reveals key and attaches to your account, or āgift friendā which i then assume insta generates a gift link connectedā¦ either way, no āsave for laterā option like beforeā¦ which annoys the hell out of me
atm iām on with support to get clarification if there then is also some sort of expiration on how long you have to make your choice, cos that one is buggin the heck out of me. Iām assuming there is no timeframe, but i need confirmation or iāll twist and turn anxiously that my games go poof if i donāt activate them immediatelyā¦
Iām currently paused so I should have the classic plan too. I really would like blasphemous and a few others I wouldnāt mind having. Not sure if I want to bother unpausing though, maybe Iād rather spend 15ā¬ for blasphemous alone just to spite humble.
Is there anything else in this bundle that someone could personally recommend?
havenāt played any of them, but the games that got me this month was Tomb Raider(yea yea i know, but i gots to haf me some Tomb Raider sometimes), Ancestors Legacy, Phantom Doctrine, Blasphemous, Dead in Vinland and Aegis Defenders.
^which i know iām likely not gonna get around to play, but those were what caught me and made me want this month, hell the top row alone had me won over with just a couple of the games, seemed like a bargain for 12bucks for all of themā¦ even tho probably just likely to gather dust in the library
Oddly enough, I won Aegis Defenders on Steam GIfts - first win there ever. O_O
I havenāt got Phantom and Vinland by other means. Blasphemous is cool and all but, well, no rush. So tiredā¦ Iām going to try to play a game tonight. All I want to do is sleep but have to make dinner. >>
Umā¦ yea, want to see what they offer next month. Iām still paused. Will wait til Iām mega excited to unpause - that may not be at all soon.
So I got this monthly mainly by ignoring that the renewal date was coming up. Thatās alright because Iām okay with getting Blasphemous, Phantom Doctorine, and Horizon Chase Turbo.
That being said, I have the rest, but do not wish to claim them for various reasons.
I paused this month last minute. Didnāt feel necessary game wise for me, and Iād rather save my cash for a lineup id play more of. Still having mixed feelings about āchoiceā overall. It feels heavily stuck on forcing people to keep subscriptions going or paused constantly in order to avoid heavy price increases while at the same time lowering your selection of games and this has been discussed to death already, but still feels worth bringing up. I just hope that increasing the price means better game choices in the future.
I had to pause this month because of the New Year, buh-bye, Dead in Vinland XD but just in case i downloaded all the Trove download-and-save games excluding the several games I already had and Deponias. I only used Trove twice during all my Humble subscription time summed together, for A Short Hike and a really small game about a silent town.
Do you guys know some obvious must-play gems from Humble Trove I could enjoy these holidays?
Depends of course a lot of what you like, but thereās a fair few pretty good games in the trove, so hereās just a list of good games as I spot them: Runestone keeper, torchlight 1+2, Trine, Reus, The Bardās tale, Satellite Reign, Renowned Explorers, Frozen synapse (not cortex), Spool side, Avadon 1-3(will keep you busy a while), X-wing Vs Tie Fighter,
Torchlights. Trine and Avalons look like perferct winter games for me, also both Frozen Synapce and Reus look pretty interesting. Those will be the first games I try, and as The Bardās Tale is a beloved classic, gonna try it out, too.
no clue if i can save for later or if there is a timeframe to choose select games, thatās what iām waiting for answer/reply from Humble support
i donāt want a revealed link if i can avoid it. It makes it 100x easier to sort when itās unrevealed than to remember the correct revealed but unused link/key
