๐ŸŽŠ Humble New Year! ๐ŸŽŠ Will it be a happy one or a sad one?

View Results
[I like the spotlight game(s)] Surely I'm not the only one to consider just DOOM Eternal and OlliOlli World an absolute steal at this price?
[Happy] Wow, this monthโ€™s lineup is totally RAD! I donโ€™t even have to think twice before buying.
[Only with limited deal] If only I could get my hands on a $6 coupon to Chop-Chop the price, Iโ€™d be absolutely psyched about this month.
[Neutral] DOOM Eternal certainly is a must-have, but Iโ€™m a little torn about this bundle because it comes without its DLCs and the other games arenโ€™t that interesting for me.
[Pause] This month is so bad that I can't even find a single reason to defend it. At least it gives me a chance to recover after Decemberโ€™s expenses.
[Disappointed, lineup] By now, I became immune to the monthly disappointment yet somehow it still feels sad every time I check the leaks or the full bundle contents.
[Canceling the subscription] Looks like the year started off on the left foot for the Choice bundles and frankly having to pause every month became tiresome.
[Accidental autocharge] Dammit, I forgot to pause this month. Yet again, my pile of unplayed games will Grow...

This isn't a bad bundle, but what a boring selection of games...

Serpent Rogue and Hokko Life had region lock for South America, OlliOlli for LATAM. No codes, sorry (or I don't see them on the steam client)

You can't as easily see this information using the client (it's possible, but more cumbersome).

Not bad, it's a pity that DOOM Eternal is the Standard Edition and not the Deluxe Edition. I think I'm going to buy the Deluxe Edition because it is quite cheap right now and I'm not sure if the Standard Edition can be upgraded to the Deluxe Edition (or how expensive it would be, by looking the store page it seems that the DLCs alone are more expensive than directly buying the Deluxe Edition).

Would have been a pass, as I still haven't played the first Doom reboot.
On a 2 month coupon though, so will get it and have the steam version of Encased.

Maybe Humble should just rename Choice to "Monthly Team17 Bundle". Seriously, does Team17 actually sell any games, or do they publish solely to fill bundles and EGS giveaways?

This bundle I guess is... fine? Doom and Tribes I will probably play at some point. Nothing else is very exciting, but nothing outright dreadful, either.

Did anyone who pays fir Choice in NZD (i.e. not on the Classic plan) get the $6US coupon last month (or in the last several months)? How much did you actually get charged in NZD with that coupon?

Hi, I'm fairly new here and I would like to ask for some advice. I would like to give away OlliOlli World - Rad Edition (R Europe)
But it's a steam bundle game including OlliOlli World and the expansion pack. I made a ticket to include this version but someone told me that you can't make a GA for a bundle. What do I do best in this case?
Thanks for any help and tips.

You can't make a giveaway for a bundle, but the key you receive here is not for a bundle. It's for a package, which is substantially different. However, since this package is not sold on the Steam store, it's not automatically indexed by SteamGifts.
You could perhaps wait a few days and see if the package will be added, since you already make a ticket for that (although as far as I am aware the support team is swamped with tickets, so it might take a while until someone sees it).

For now, you can either give it away as the base game, or as one of the included DLCs.
If you give it away as the base game, then people who already own it won't be able to enter your giveaway in case they would want to enter only for DLCs.
If you opt-in to give it away as any of the included DLCs, then only those who already have the base game will be able to enter. The DLCs will also be switched to partial CV soon, so there's no real gain for doing so - if anything, you'll get more CV in the end from a base game giveaway.

It's entirely up to you what you chose, but you can also wait a few days and see if the package is added, hoping for some extra CV.
However, whatever you chose, don't forget to set the proper region locks - they're a bit of a mess.

Thank you for your advice. I'll wait for a while like you suggested and if it takes too long, I'll make a GA for the base game I guess so more people can enter. TY

Bought for the "filler games" Encased and Grow. Hakko looks cute and i might try Doom if i ever feel in a bad mood :p. Good bundle worth the 10โ‚ฌ.
Thank you very much for the chart Lilly, and happy belated new year. Wish you the best for 2023 โ™ฅ

Despite having Doom Eternal in it, this whole bundle just seems too...juvenile and cutesy.
Pause, and hope for a decent coupon, as Encased and Doom could be interesting, perhaps also Grow.

Hmm. Too bad its not the full ver of "Doom Eternal".
I'm tempted to get the doom franchise bundle instead and skip this month.

I want "Encased" on steam but I have it on Epic so I don't need it.
"Conan Chop Chop" is on my WL but its not enough to get the bundle for it considering "Doom Eternal" is not complete.
The rest don't really interest me. The skateboard one might be worth trying to win, but I"m not interested in buying it..

https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/15366/DOOM_Franchise_Bundle/

I already own doom3 & doom (1993).
cost is 30.55 can.

I also have an unredeemed key for doom so that should lower the cost further if I redeem it first.
I thought Doom II was included in Doom 3 but its saying I don't already own it.
Am I wrong about what Doom 3 has included?

Doom has changed its packages a few times. If I get this franchise bundle do I have all the Doom stuff with all the DLCs?

Edit. I'm also looking at the master chief collection before its no longer on sale. This is not a one or the other thing. I'm looking at both.

I thought Doom II was included in Doom 3 but its saying I don't already own it.

Don't see why Doom 3 (any flavour) should have included Doom 2. As you can see on https://steamdb.info/app/2300/subs/ it's in this Doom Classics collection and a bunch of random Quakecon packs.

Considering the Doom bundle is Complete The Set it might be substantially cheaper to source some of the older titles through other means. Dunno what keys cost these days.

I'm also looking at the master chief collection before its no longer on sale.

Why, is that getting removed / changed? Or do you just mean the xmas sale discount?

Its in the notes on the store page that it includes orig doom and doom II.
I took a closer look on the Doom 3 page. It says

An embedded version of DOOM (1993)
An embedded version of DOOM II

I guess that means that has them and I can play them but not as a separate appid as is listed in this bundle. I was going from memory and did not remember the embedded part. Thats a bit of an odd way of doing it.

I do show I own DOOM (1993)" as its own appid. I searched my spreadsheet for the appid. It was called "Ultimate Doom" when I got it but its the same ID.

Thanks for the steamDB link. I should have checked that out sooner.

As for the master chief collection. No, I just meant before the sale is over on the 5th. There is nothing changing that I'm aware of.

Doom 3 BFG has Doom 1 and Doom 2 in it, but it won't give you them as separate games.

Edit: I just saw your other comment.

But yeah, a few things have changed in the game names not that long ago. Ultimate Doom was renamed to Doom (1993) (still has all 4 chapters), and Doom 3 BFG Edition, Doom 3 and Resurrection of Evil were merged on the store page but they are seperate games in the library, the same happened to Doom 2, Master Levels and Final Doom.

Yes, its a bit confusing. Took me a bit to figure it all out. I ended up skipping this month. I wanted the full game.

I bought what I wanted tonight instead while its all still on sale.. :)
I have not bought anything else from steam during this winter sale.

DOOM Franchise Bundle
Halo: The Master Chief Collection
Halo Wars: Definitive Edition

l will wait for Halo Infinite (Campaign) to come down in price further before I pick it up.

Assuming no further skips. I'm good to Nov now. I had bought a yearly sub a couple months ago on sale to add to my own. But I ended up giving it to my nephew for Christmas as a gift from my parents. :)
I'm sure HB will have another sale before Nov.

I'd love to get this for Doom Eternal but I bought 2016 Doom a while back and never even played it - my backlog is just too big. Probably smarter to wait until Eterrnal is like 5 bucks on a sale.

Yeah I wouldn't buy it until you play Doom 2016. Eternal is pretty fun, but I prefer the gameplay in 2016 by far.

Hello all. A little help here: how does this 2 months discount/coupon for Humble Choice work? They send it via email? I only subscribed their newsletter recently, and I'm considering becoming a member, but I'd like to get one of these coupons first.

Comment has been collapsed.

At least for me:
1 month pause - $2 off offer (sometimes no coupon offer) when trying to pause
2 months pause - $4 off offer when trying to pause
If you didn't buy the bundle until the end of the month, they offer a coupon ($4~$6 off) via email when bundle is almost reaching the end date. They offer coupon in newsletter too, for first time purchases
