As you know they removed keys , now you have to login your steam to reedem games , so trading will be harder ,

But you still can trade the links , You can send someone a link you got and he can login his steam and get games , If we do it will something bad happen ?

Edit: My friend bought a bundle for me and sent link , it didnt allow me to redeem from another hib account

Nope, they can't really stop that and it's even more in gray area.

The difference comes in if the bundle is claimed, if it's unclaimed then I don't think they can do anything apart from limitng amount you can buy.

That's not what they meant, they meant the 'buy as a gift' option

Well isn't there a gifting option? So you'd buy the whole bundle for that person.

Unless you are talking about multiple people using the same humble account in which case I wouldn't know how that works.

Have you tested this?

I'm sure they could link the Humble Accounts with your SteamID and prevent other SteamIDs from accessing that same Humble Account.

Still, what about old bundles? I have bought few of them but I have never connected my Steam account with my Humble account as far as I remember. I also haven't redeemed some keys from my Humble account so... Dunno how would it look like. Anyone have tried redeeming (means generating) keys now?

I like it. It helps keep it more in the original spirit of offering you a way to get cheap games, rather than what it had been turned in to, which was basically a source to acquire "currency" you could use for trading.

Thinking about it, we could also have a giveaway choice for UTA or BTA and keep the individual games off the bundle list as you can't give any keys.

People could send a gift link as one of the individual games though, so chances are it'd be safer to just add them, but it does bring up a new discussion about it!

How about buy as a gift and redeem link(s) for (one more) game and give generated link(s) to friend? Sorry for my bad English.

It's one single link for the whole bundle, not for each individual game.

Humble's policy has always been that all keys are for purchaser's personal use only. People have been abusing the system, and now they've made it so you can't. I don't like it, but I understand it.

Then you haven't been around for that long, the early Humbles gave entire bundles as bonuses, which you would obviously give away to someone else.

You already responded to me in another thread. No need to be rude about it.

Look, I'll even post here what I said in response in the other thread, so that people here can read it.

"I wasn't aware, thanks. Either way, it IS their policy, and people have been abusing it. I don't like it, and probably won't buy bundles with games I already own now, but eh. It is what it is."
