Polybius is pretty mind blowing in non VR, so I imagine it’s fantastic in VR. It’s only 6 quid full price though.

[AlexClockwork]

Polybius, Conductor and Rainbow Reactor have decent reviews, I may get them.

Raw Data was also quite popular a few years ago, but I haven’t heard it mentioned much since, so I’m not sure about it.

Cosmis Trip is decent fun, but not for that long, and I already have it. It’s fine though.

As for Grip, I’m pretty sure I own it… Somewhere. I’ll have to try it in VR, didn’t know that was an option.

[alms]

Humble is sending around an offer for 6 months of Choice, for $36. Unlike most such deals, it works for existing subscribers, as long as you don’t pause.

While this is not an ungenerous offer, I find it amusing they think I’m going to spend money with them after they silently expired my store credit.

With these two final dick moves (the other one is no longer allowing pausing while on deals), Humble has exhausted any goodwill I had left.

[alms]

BTW Classic users are not allowed to take advantage. They forgot to put that in the fine print…

[AlexClockwork]

Humble deals are getting less and less interesting. :-/

[alms]

A rebundle might be underwhelming for those hoping to celebrate the festive season with a new bundle, OTOH we did have a couple new Tuesday bundles lately.

And it’s not exactly like people usually complain to have too few games, isn’t it

[AlexClockwork]

Oh, sorry, I was specifically talking about the 6 months deal (not pausable and not available to Classic users, which WTF). Not that I’d want to get it, though. It’s been a while since I spend a month without pausing.

[alms]

There are signs pointing towards Humble having more and more problems staying sufficiently profitable.

Perhaps I’m pessimistic, but I don’t think Bundle Endtimes might be oh so far away now.

My personal take

Humble sneakily slips in the gud’un just before Christmas. This time, too, the filling is a bit shaky, while the best bits are confined to the buns.

Breathedge and Moons of Madness make for a pretty respectable top tier, while Tacoma for a buck is a steal.

Tacoma for a buck is a steal.

Yeah, I quite liked Gone Home, but enjoyed Tacoma a tiny bit more for its higher production values and the way it plays.

[Sarfrin]

Tacoma for a buck is a steal.

Definitely. I’d also recommend 2000:1 A Space Felony for anyone who enjoys Tacoma.

[Kiril]

Breathedge and Moons of Madness make for a pretty respectable top tier, while Tacoma for a buck is a steal.

Tacoma is really good. Breathedge is also quite fun, they are hoping for Q1 release aswell, it was meant to be November but they got a publisher and added more languages and all that jazz. Its also on sale on steam on its own for the price of the bundle.

[alms]

Merry Christmas, folks!

Definitely. I’d also recommend 2000:1 A Space Felony for anyone who enjoys Tacoma.

Which reminds me, Trove getting the axe is one of the Signs of the Bundle Endtimes.

[Hanimalle]

Merry Christmas everyone, I hope that despite these trying circumstances, you’re all having a good time, especially for those among us who have to spend this time alone, I know it’s not easy so my thoughts are with you.

Tacoma is really good. Breathedge is also quite fun, they are hoping for Q1 release aswell, it was meant to be November but they got a publisher and added more languages and all that jazz. Its also on sale on steam on its own for the price of the bundle.

What about Moons of Madness, it’s the only one I might be interested in that I don’t already own but I don’t know whether or not it’s worth it for that price.

[alms]

What about Moons of Madness, it’s the only one I might be interested in that I don’t already own but I don’t know whether or not it’s worth it for that price.

I don’t know if I would buy the bundle for Moon of Madness Alone, I guess it comes down to whether you really have an itch to play that kind of game, or not. It rates well for immersion and ambience, but kind of a mixed bag in other departments.
