Hey :) For some reason when I clicked on the link to the first one in the graph it didn't work correctly.. might of been due to my adblocker. I've edited it to list all 3 since it did finally show the IG bundle for me.

Thanks for all the info your provide and making threads :)

In the beginning, GoGo was pretty attractive for game collectors, because they had cheap bundles and a substantial amount of unbundled games. Getting a 10 pack for a $0.50 was a steal (I think most of us were GroupBuying these bundles). But then they started to rebundle their games to the point in which people were not interested in buying them any more. I guess that was the turning point of their bankruptcy.

DIG seems to have picked up where GoGo left, but with a huge marketing flaw: their bundles are extremely overpriced. There is no GroupBuy option and to pay a $4 for DIG bundles doesn't seem such a great idea when you can pay pretty much the same for a Humble Bundle BTA, which has notably higher quality games. I don't see many people buying DIG bundles nowadays and I think they'll be soon extinct. On another note though, I wish more people knew about the DIG shadiness, so that they don't get tempted to support this company. I know you like them, therefore I apologize for disappointing you, but in my book DIG is much worse than GoGo.

I think the ones really affected are BunchKeys, and they really don't deserve this. Their bundles are quite similar to GoGos, and they offer multipacks, therefore people might put an equal sign between those two stores. It's a real pity though, because BunchKeys is nothing like GoGo. They're dedicated, they're always in contact with their customers (see their comments on BunchKeys threads), they're open to feedback / suggestions, they're always looking to improve things (for example they redesigned their website to be more accessible). I do hope to see an increased quality in their bundles in the future.

Groupees, despite being everyone's favorite in terms of communication between the staff and the customers (because of the chat and because they are actively present in there) had a pretty big decline over the past year or so (maybe 2 years?). They launch more bundles than before, but a big part of their fanbase lost their confidence in them (because of unfilled promises and because their older bundles were much better while the new ones seem pretty low effort). Groupees is slowly drifting towards a GoGo level of confidence. They can still save themselves by recruiting someone dedicated enough to put up a nice bundle, at least from time to time. With a bit of effort, they could bounce back up. Confidence lost or not, people still hope.

IndieGala is the most stable store in terms of quality: they keep a constant average quality of games, nice price with a GroupBuy (like with GoGo, I think most of us use GroupBuys). I don't see them affected by the GoGo saga. Yes, they increased their prices (by bundling less games) but their games are still more or less nice. Opinions might differ, but at least they're not trash / all trash. It has also become more difficult to bundle games because the devs are restricted to a 10k keys generation nowadays. The addition of "Steam is learning" makes it even worse, because collectors are less motivated to buy these games considering that they don't give a +1 to their library any more. And let's face it... Steam is NEVER learning.

And Fanatical or Humble Bundle aren't affected, not even a slightly bit. They're on their own island of "let's bundle AAA titles", pretty far from the GoGo world. Sure, they might not meet everyone's expectations, but they're still the best bundle stores. Fanatical has moments of glory (when they launch a really great bundle) but also moments of shame (rebundles of rebundles of rebundles, like Matryoshka dolls), but they're still far from GoGo, or bankruptcy for a matter of fact (judging based on how many sales they still make). Let's not forget Fanatical's new discovery: when in doubt that your profits are high enough, just boost them with a Lootbox bundle! Seems to work so far...
