Nobody? Then check out the giveaways more carefully. Also I dont really get this "oh its 90% off..." bs. Even tho its on sale they are giving away games, so if you have any problem with that, just keep it to yourself/ignore these kind of giveaways, simple.

Yes, remember, if you're using a bundle key that is going to give you a 90% increase vs. paid, it's scamming the system. Get a sale price like this from steam, amazon, gmg, etc., or a buy one get two free deal (I'm looking at you, "the ship"), and you've got the green light for adventure.

Why no one complains about those 150point packs?. They're making 100 more than the $50 they paid. Double standards.

  • THQ collection: -85% ($50 for a $400 pack)
  • SEGA Hit Collection: -85% too.

"too cheap" isn't really the main reason for the ban on bundle keys. But I feel it's pointless to correct people anymore since people seem too ignorant to actually pay attention. -_-

I'd much rather have the site flooded with fun indie titles that people actually want to play than these train games. I understand the purpose of the rules that are in place, but they don't seem to be working. Just my $0.02.

There are clearly people that want to play these train games. If they didn't, no one would enter and these games wouldn't be made in the first place. I know for one, Japan has a pretty big following of train otaku. http://www.japanstyle.info/10/entry9322.html http://archive.metropolis.co.jp/tokyo/783/pop.asp I also have at least one or two friends that bought the game for themselves. Everyone has different interests.

He's trying to make a parallel case, man! Showing that the reasons that trains is ok are the exact same reasons he feels bundle games should be ok. His "irony" is that the same logic that makes trains A-ok is the logic that people refuse to listen to when there is an argument to make bundle games cool.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I don't see how this is the same. Buying the train games, your paying $4 for a $35 game or $8 for a $70 game. Bundles you can pay $1 for $25 worth of games. For IG IV bundle, I purchased the BTA on the first week for $5. Then during happy hour, I spent around $30 for 30 bundles which about half of them had missing keys. I emailed support and instead of fixing the missing ones, they gave me 30 completely new bundles. so in total, I paid $35 for 61 bundles. Making giveaways for the bundle, i'd get $175 contributor value in total (80% off). If i separated the keys, i'd make it well over $1k contributor value (98-99% off).

so, 8-9% more off than using trains. Doesn't sound like much when I put it in terms of that, does it. For the sake of argument, lets throw out the extra 30 bundles you got. It was an isolated incident due to a technical issue, and it's really no different from IGN prime deciding to give out 30 free keys one special time instead of their usual.

Now that we've done that, lets look at other bundles. The latest indie gala had a minimum price of... around 7 bucks by the end. For that you got games worth around $70 retail(? I'm not exactly sure, as I've never posted them. While I disagree with the rule, I'm not about to violate it). so we're really looking at about 90% off (look familiar?) But wait, it's an indie bundle, so it's bad -- Not so if these were just old titles offered in an amazon bundle or something, the consensus seems to be that those break-ups are legit. Now, if you only wanted 2 games out of that and you want to pay the rest forward to the community, you're in violation of the rules.

And none of that goes back to the core argument, which is that it's not like people don't want these games, and it's not like they're coming for free. These dramatic sales essentially ruin the contributor index anyway, so why not embrace the bundles and share the love?

Anyhow, please don't take this as a personal attack. I'm actually a big fan of yours, and I'm just trying to fully explain the position held by a less articulate user, since I happen to see exactly where they're coming from.

Yes, $7 at the end for $70 retail. But then throw in the 4 bonus bundles for paying a certain amount as a gift (usually $20-$25). So now for $20-$25 your getting $350 retail. Now throw in happy hour, if you purchased in the first week, you get 4x that amount, so now your paying $20-$25 for $1400 retail.

Without bonus bundles being offered, single keys from bundles would be worth discussing more. But the fact is, its against the rules of this site so you just don't do it. If steamgifts adds the option to create a giveaway and we can exclude certain games from counting towards the contributor requirement of your giveaway then I'd have no issue with these exploited keys and single keys from indie bundles. (assuming everyone who creates contributor giveaways does that :P) I do have some game giveaways that I bought from amazon, gamersgate, greenmangaming that are also from indie bundles but it wouldn't bother me if they can be excluded from my contributor value.

Your calculations are based only on 1 (ONE) type of bundle. Let's do this again, maybe with Indie Royale, huh?

So, where's the line? 10 times more is ok, but 20x not? That's what I'm talking about.

I spent around $30 for 30 bundles

WTF? You get 4 packs, for every 1$ during Happy Hour(s), so you had to get 90 bundles or spend 10$. Also, buying all of them for cheapest price is just damn LEECHING.

Read. Think.

I said you CAN pay $1 for a bundle, the BTA for IG IV was $5.00-$6.00 and with the bonus for paying a certain amount and happy hour, it came out to around $30. And how is it leeching? Stop using words you don't understand. Its called charity. I gave away maybe 15 of the bundles here and don't plan on giving away the other 45.

He can't read. I posted an opinion very similar to his to provoke to think about bundles and he assumed, that it's an quote. I don't see there any citation or italic, do you? Then he even started offending me. What do you think I should write to such a jerk? - Read and think.
