Regarding new bundles and opinions

Thank you, Bobo, for the excellent post. I'd like to see more useful/helpful posts like this. )

"These comments are, by and large, completely useless and spammy."

Have you ever seen the comments for every giveaway on this website? I think your outrage is misplaced.

Bobofatt is absolutely right.

inb4 suspension for meh

meh.

And saying thank you, ty, etc and all the other comments on giveaways and such aren't spam?

Why don't we have a thank you button for giveaways?

Amen.

Thanks, bobofatt, for concisely stating what I have felt for a long time about this topic.

Also, people don't appreciate that you can buy a few games for the price of 1$. It's a great deal in itself. Kids are spoiled nowadays :(

This is the internet and ill post whatever I want as long as it doesnt break any rules.

"You owning all or most of the games is not relevant information to anyone else."

I agree that this is right in most instances, but when the bundles contain games that have been in bundles before I feel it's a fair comment.

There has been a noticeable decline in the quality of the bundles in the last few months, it's no surprise that people are picking up on this and making it known they're not as happy with the bundles now. And if you really think there hasn't been a decline in quality, take any regular or weekly bundle from the last two months to any of the first five indie bundles, and compare them objectively. The current weekly is one of the worst I've seen, it's starting to get pointless, I will probably stop checking for new bundles soon.

These useless and repetive threads?

Is there even a giveaway here?

seems legit. Why dont we ban all those people, its basically "calling out" a bundle which is against the rules of this site.

Meh.

I agree. Those comments are no use to anyone.

Spot on

I've posted as much before quite a few times, generally in threads where the general "opinion" is "omg this sucks" for many of the reasons you posted above. Usually one or two people agree with me but most people always continue to make two word comments about how much they dislike a certain bundle

Comments on the internet are mostly useless, and telling people to write useful comments is nearly impossible ;)
But I do agree with what you wrote, won't happen though, because people love to be assholes, atleast until they get punished for it.

It's still a free bump so others can see the thread :p

Comments and chains are the most fun part imo

so... an opinion thread about opinions?
well, to be honest, and this is my opinion, i really don't care about the "usefulness" of a comment, if i need something useful to decide to buy or not a bundle, i search each game on the store, read some review or watch some gameplay video.

That's not really a problem with bundles, more a problem with the internet. This website has became too popular

I really value opinions about the individual games and I don't mind opinions about the value of a bundle as a whole. Once someone purchases a couple dozen bundles, its get hard to find a bundle with all new games. And a person can never have enough Point & Click Adventure games.
