I don't think Hotline Miami will be on the Humble Bundle, either.

BUY IT WHILE IT'S ON SALE. IT'S A WONDERFUL GAME.

New and sucessful game that still sells a lot. If it was to be on Humble Bundle, it would be in the bundle from day one, as a BTA.

Hmm, you replied to this topic saying "yes, especially hotline miami"

The question that the topic makes is:"Is anyone else holding back on indie games until HIB7 bonus games are revealed?"

So it means you want to buy it and you are not doing that because it may appear on humble bundle.

Im just saying there is no way it will appear on the bundle, so you can get just buy it now before the discount goes away.

Wasn't Botanicula in some bundle immediately after the release?

Comment has been collapsed.

It was not in a bundle immediately after release, it was a bundle for its release (Humble Botanicula Debut).
It's also different because the minimum price for the bundle was 5$ for Steam keys.

I believe it was in the bundle from day one.

Feel a bit silly, but I only recently noticed those extra bundle games. Was just installing the first pile of games and forgetting about it. Went back through the old stuff and found a bunch of extra games I could install/give away. Oops. :)

I just generally don't buy those kinds of indie games anymore; it never fails that they become pay-what-you-want within six months.

I think bundling games is a terrible idea. For some reason the ides just doesn't appeal to me. I'd rather buy them one by one from a store.

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Yes, it's a terrible idea, buying few games together for 1 dollar?? I'd rather buy them one by one, each for $5 or so!

Seriously, what?

The latter method is better for the developers who certainly deserve to be supported more than the $1 minimum you pay them.

  • you often get games you don't even wanted. (at least i do)

Comment has been collapsed.

Yes but I sometimes get games I wouldn't have bought and really liked them. I then told some friends about them and they bought them as well, which = additional sales for the devs.

If were interested in bundles, I wouldn't pay a dollar for them. That's disrespectful. That's one of the reasons, I don't know how much to pay, especially since they throw charities I don't particularly care for in the mix. But mostly I just don't like bundles; I don't like few novels in one book, I don't like few movies on one DVD, etc. Franchise packs are a little different as they belong together, unlike games in bundles.

P.S. Also people who sell bundles are just extra middle men in the chain.

You used a bad comparison. It's more like a pack of few separated books/movies - especially now, when HIB uses separate keys. Most of other bundles like Indie Gala or Indie Royale do as well.
Hm, let's use an example. You wanted to buy Inception movie on DVD. The cheapest price you found was 20 euros. Then you see some "movie bundle"* with Inception and 3 other great movies. Its' cost is 5 euros.

...if you still bought the movie alone ("cause it feels disrespectful for Nolan's crew") for 20 euros, then it's ok. It's just that not everyone's got money for it... and the movies he's not interested in might turn out to be hidden gems. (for me it was VVVVVV in HIB)

*we had Humble eBook Bundle, Humble Music Bundle... is it time? :P

Well, Cave Story+ was a bonus in HIB... 4, I think. So it does have a good chance of coming now. I bought mine during Summer Sale though, pretty neat game.

In general, the people that complain about indie games getting in bundles (becoming pay what you want), are the people that pay the minimum for the bundles. They equate "pay what you want" with "get it for next to nothing" and treat it as such.

It is disappointing as it is like leeching off of the developers' creative output.

I agree. I see many people skipping Tiny and Big because they are sure that it will appear in a Humble Bundle(and it will, im sure). But it is a game that deserves the full price, as many on the humble bundle, imo. I snatched it up in the summer sale and loved every second of the game, and even if it gets on humble bundle, I do not care, because I did support the devs.

I've bought a bunch of indie games. Many in bundles and some outside of bundles. My big concern is that a lot of indie games are crap and it can be tough to tell before you play them. Usually I'll wait for a bundle but a few have managed to get me prior to going into a bundle like Legend of Grimrock and Bastion

Same here. There are a few I would've picked up this sale, but I've had too many I've already purchased come out in a bundle.

Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Same. Only time I'll pick up an indie game outside of a bundle now is if I really want to play it, I plan on playing it immediately and if it's 75% off or more. If any of those 3 conditions are not met, I don't buy it.

I was never really into indie games until I learned about the HIB. Since I don't have tons of time to play, going for the indie titles always seemed like a risk. With the HIB, I can essentially try out games that I would not have picked up on my own for a very modest price and experience things that I would never have experienced before.

So buy game as a gift and put it in your inventory. And wait.

Quite possible, though I couldn't tell which games I'm holding back on.
