That's to debate: do you prefer 3 of these for $7.99 (even though bundled several times) or 8 Choice games for $6 - $8, unbundled and of which some are AAA titles?
To their defense, this time they're slightly cheaper (the Platinum Collections in which they were previously featured are priced at $2.85 - $3.33 / piece).

Yeah, I was thinking that too. The real question is when they fix it will tier 1 get more expensive or will tier 3 get cheaper?

It's a new trend, I've seen the same with batteries in the shop today. 4-packs were priced 2.5x more than 2-packs (neither were on sale).

Out of curiosity,

Free randomly selected game (Including but not limited to; Gungrave G.O.R.E, Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide, Hogwarts Legacy, Returnal)

is this actually real or just a bait, like most of Fanatical promos? (namely, what exactly can you select that is not a random drop dictated by Fanatical's algorithms?)

My experience says that the keys you can get from "extras on top of your purchase" are just the leftovers that they can't sell otherwise (apart from hiding them in Mystery bundles to force people to actually buy them), so I highly doubt that the chance of dropping a Gungrave G.O.R.E / Hogwarts Legacy / Returnal key is higher than 1 in 10.000 purchases. Vermintide should be common (everyone owns it already, and no one wants it any more, since it's been bundled so many times), and I guess it's mentioned in that list to trick people into thinking that the chance of getting the others is as high as Vermintide, while in fact 99.999% of the keys will be Vermintide and other stuff that no one needs.

Also out of curiosity, what did you get from the Scratchcard?

It's showing "Great games from as little as $2.30 each". It's not showing $2.60 for me, but your comment was a couple hours ago so maybe it's been changed.

As far as what's being stated this obviously isn't going to be for tier 1, "as little as" is the price you can get each at game if you buy the highest tier.

Buy 2 bundles for over $12, get one coupon for $1, and get one coupon for mystery key for Wounded - The Beginning, Yawn.

It's a little bit tricky because if you buy a $1 extra game. With a 5% off coupon, the final price will be a little bit under $12. So you would either discard your coupon or buy something more than $1 to pass the $12 threadhold.

It was 12.99€ at the start. A shame they did this honestly. But you do save 1.5€, so not bad

No, it shouldn't. The price is more than reasonable. Come on now. Fanatical and Humble aren't going to base their price on grey market prices.

really they are a little more convenient on Fanatical also by applying the 5% coupon and without fees and then considering that it is an authorized seller it is always better to buy from them
