Do you think humble bundle will comeback with best bundles (AAA Indie...) or IGN killed it ?
Can we have a Staff Picks, a Jumbo bundle or an Indie Gems one? Please HB do us a solid!

It seems that its cool to cry about everything. Epic, EA, humble, IGN, steam, ubisoft etc.

Well if it wasn't for Humble we would have 2-3 good bundles in a whole year. When you have no competition you don't need to improve. Less and less (decent) developers are willing to put their games in bundles, which is understandable. Market is saturated, it is not like couple years ago when there was only Humble, and you knew all games in a bundle since they were indie hits. If they can keep up Monthly quality good I won't miss regular bundles that much.

Rather than Humble intentionally sabotaging their regular bundles to sell Monthly/Choice, it's more that publishers are less willing to put their games in cheap bundles, fully aware that they'll end up in grey markets for pennies, secondary transactions from which they won't earn anything, except for extra pressure from "non-paying" customers who might have issues.
Sure, it could be argued that they still get paid for the initial purchases... from customers who don't fiddle with sliders, that is.
In any case, the other reason, which is more troublesome for smaller companies, is that this devalues their games, so much that anything that's not AAA is considered "shovelware" (even though Humble is a far shoot from what you'd expect of DIG or Indie Gala), sold for cheap on grey markets or traded away, just because somebody would surely be willing to get anything for a +1 or a few card drops if it's cheap enough, and profitors don't mind how much they earn, as long as they do earn something.
Humble Monthly/Choice suffers more or less from the same fate, with everything but AAA games and high tier indies sold for pennies on grey markets, but on the other hand, they don't have sliders, so publishers are, at the very least, guaranteed to earn money.
Easy to guess what they'd go for given the choice (totally unintentional pun), from both a financial and visibility standpoint.
TL;DR: when in doubt, blame the profitors.
It doesn't even come as a surprise that the decline in the overall quality of bundles coincides with the surge in grey market usage and farming (and the business behind it), and Valve's anti-trader measures.

Humble needs to find a way to stop giving keys and kill the 3rd party markets. Thats the only way for bundles to get better games. I am saying the same thing for so long but the only thing i hear is that its IGN's fault. If there is no solution i am pretty sure after a few years bundles will stop being released and if any will be released it will have a really high price.

I remember those old Tuesdays when you knew that something really cool was going to happen at 8pm thanks to HumbleBundle.

And then greedy traders got their hands on them and now nobody wants to bundle his game.

Not my cup of tea.

sure it does - there's Europe, which consists of three four cities: London with the Queen, Paris with the Eiffel tower, the Colosseum, and some drug den in northern europe called Amsterdam. Then there's soviet shitholes. Asia consists of China, India, and a warzone. Africa is just one big shithole which is full of scary black people. And to our south Mexico stretches to the bottom of the world and all they do is send us criminals and gardeners
