Humble Bundle Thread

I think it's just a straight charity drive, but the charities listed in the distribution aren't the same ones listed under the games. Not sure how that is supposed to work. "Watch our stream, support our charities, but actually give money to other charities."

I didn't see that, you're right. Still shut out Child's Play as usual.

And EFF doesn't wan't to be in Steam-bundles, since it's DRM.

Since stream is for december this might start on Monday?

Seems they are working on it changed from 81 days left to 31 days left.

So I see placeholders for Sonic Transformed, Chivalry, Torchlight, Shank 2 and Magicka: Wizard Wars.  If this is accurate then the only games I don't have are Chivalry and Wizard Wars.  Might be worth it depending on any BTA they might add to the deal.

Edited:  Looks like the purchase page is down now.

Can't hide anything on the internet. Humble "tests" something and gets a couple grand worth of donations. They got a pretty good thing going right now.

Seems like the Yogscast Humble Bundle will be part of their annual Christmas charity drive.

http://www.twitch.tv/yogscast/b/483994070

I skimmed through the Twitch recording (watch ~ 3 to 6 minute mark) and a logo says it goes live Dec 6. People who pay more than ~BTA $25 (he thinks) gets TF DLC, Hat, and bunch of games. They also said "we might add more games and things like that."

Taken from SteamGifts:

Minimum 

Sonic All-Star Racing Transformed
Chivalry
Torchlight
Shank 2
Magicka: Wizard Wars

BTA
An exclusive TF2 item
An exclusive War of the Vikings hat
Napoleon Total War

 
Damn I bought Sonic Racing like 2 weeks ago from Gamefly. I guess im in for $1 for Chivalry and Wizard Wars since I already have Shank 2 as well.

Hello Yogscast Pre-Purchasers,

Thanks for supporting the The Yogscast's Dwarven Dairy Drive!

Unfortunately, the version of the site that you purchased from was not intended for the public and did not properly represent the structure of the promotion. With that in mind, redemptions will work as follows:

- Users who donate over $1 will receive a TF2 "Heart of Gold" DLC
- Users who donate over $25 receive Torchlight, Chivalry, Shank 2, Magicka: Wizard Wars, Sonic All-Star Racing Transformed, Napoleon Total War and the Yogscast War of the Vikings

It takes $25 to get *any* game keys. I guess they're making it up to the pre-purchasers by giving the TF2 item which otherwise would be BTA.

Wow. Bundle went from good to shit. Bundle must only be meant for charity donators then.. I don't think any CAGs would buy this.

I won't breath a sigh of relief until that Sonic Racing Transformed Yogscast DLC is cancelled. So many better choices for DLC characters and they choose Yogscast? :whistle2:(

However, I'm not a recent Sonic Racing Transformed purchaser.. so not sure if I qualify ;)

$25 base?  Haha, what will the BTA be?  $50?  Nothnx.  Cheap games > starving orphans.

Sonic Racing Transformed is the best RPG to land on PC since Ultima 7

 
So basically everyone who kicked in early paid for some crappy aesthetic TF2 item to put on their (character's) chest.

I thought the bit about the Yogscast DLC was a joke until I went back and re-read the reddit post.

I hope this is taking the place of a weekly because I expect HiB10 to launch within the next few weeks. I'd hate to think that they were doing this instead of HiB10.

MysterD is of the asinine opinion that Lamescape Torment, Dragon Age Borigins, and some other shitty games are better. He brought up something called Baldur's gate, too, whatever that is.

He doesn't know what a true RPG is

 
I think it probably is -- the mobile bundle is ending on Tuesday so they launch this, it runs for two weeks then you're nearer to the Steam sale which is usually when the big zomg numbered bundles occur.  So Yogcast 3-17 and numbered bundle is 18 through January 2nd or w/e.

It could be an alternative bundle, similar to the Amnesia Prototype bundle. If that's true, then a numbered HB could run at the same time.

Yeah, I just thought of that and was gonna mention it, but you beat me to it.

It's those spoder reflexes, I guess.

They said on stream something like it's just Humble running for them (for free) and not their main thing. (Don't quote me on this thought)

 
I got this email from EA thanking me for buying the Humble Origin bundle. thought they were going to include some free bonus game but NOPE, they just wanted to say how generous they are giving to charities. last time i donate to charity. lol, jk... maybe

 
I had a long day and just discovered all of this Yogscast stuff. It seems more like Humble distributing donation rewards than it is a bundle.
