Clearing out my Humble keys.

I need to make a decision on Humble Monthly. March had a game I wanted as it's big title, April had one game I really wanted and one I took on a whim, and this last month was just the pits in my opinion with one game I only sort of want. But many previous ones I didn't get turned out to be generally pretty good after the fact. Do I decline to get the next month, I have Stellaris (it's pretty decent until you get to the late game)? But then if I do, how much do you want to bet that it's a great supporting cast?

Should I adopt a sort of Pascal's Wager? Given the modest cost compared to my current income, is it not rational to wager on the rest of the games including several I'd like? If I buy, and regardless of it they are good or bad, my loss is finite. Whereas if I don't buy and they're bad, then it doesn't matter. Whereas if I don't buy and they're good, I'm missing out on a great deal on indie games I'll have to wait for another sale for. Like Pascal arguing that the rational human wagering on God existing based upon the finite cost and either infinite reward or infinite suffering, shouldn't I wager on the old white bearded flying spaghetti game in the sky just in case? I don't necessarily agree with Pascal, my personal inability to decide on a divine isn't aided or hindered by any risk or reward and I have the utmost respect for those who can make a reasoned decision on the topic, in either direction.

Anyway, that's a lot of typing, no thanks are necessary: I'm most likely not going to play these games, so you taking them is better than the keys going to waste.

I only go for the monthly bundle that offers a game early that I actually want or peeks my interest as that way I know that I'll get a game that I know I want, else I just pause til the next month. It does suck a bit when the follow up games turns out to be games that I wanted.. Thats when you come to steamgifts and hope you win it here instead:D

I appreciate the chance on your leftovers, thanks.

Stellaris is very good until it totally tanks my framerate and gets unplayable towards the end-game.

And on your monthly thing, I usually like getting them monthlys cos it's nice to see what you get (it's like a present for myself) but yeah it's kinda hit or miss. The wisest decision is getting the bundle if you're interested in the early sunlock I guess, but to be honest they bank on your fear on missing out on a good bundle.

I dunno man, I'm just rambling, anyhows thanks for the cahcne at this, Owlboy and Oddworld TC. Cheers-.
