The Indie Gala: Space Engineers Bundle

Is this a good deal? Well if you dont live in RU, BR or anywhere else where it might be that cheap. If you don't want to wait for higher percent sales and if you don't want to trade then I guess this a "decent" deal. I do however doubt that they will sell all (or even more than a few hundreds) of their 13.99 dollar keys. They should have kept the price at like 8-10 or something.

if you don't live in RU find one of hundreds RU traders on ST and pay him 5-10% extra for buying you the game and giftig it to you.

Like I said, some people for different reasons do not like or wish to trade for things but rather buy things themselves.

I'm not interested in package myself, but that dosen't mean that this is not a "decent" deal to some - even if I find it a tad too expensive.

Edit: I forgot a "not" before "decent".

yeah im one of those that doesnt use traders, id rather not risk my money and frankly the effort required versus saving a quid or 2 for a game i might not recieve a key for well doesnt seem worth it to me

MDuh is talking about the RU Steam store, that means you get a tradeable copy.

Most traders are interested in TF2/Dota2 or CS:GO Keys, so you put tradeable keys in the trade window, the trader puts the tradeable game in the trade window and if for any reason your game disappears you get your keys back (after contacting support) - no risk at all.

But you are right, if Paypal or game keys are involved, it's risky and you will get no support from Valve.

TL;DR: Trade window good, trades outside trade window bad.

You see, you're just contradicting yourself. You just implied that it is a good deal UNLESS IF YOU CAN'T ACCESS BR/RU STEAM PRICES, and then you replied zelgha by saying that it isn't decent to some. Srsly, if that's a good deal, go ahead buy it rofl.

And yes, this is the first time I saw a limited key offer for indie gala

What I said (or was trying to say but forgot a word) is that this might be a decent/good/awesome deal to some people, especially if you live in EU/UK/US regions and for some reason don't want to or can't trade/buy it from third party traders/sellers and don't want to wait for high percent sale of the items included in this package..

For me personally this is not a good deal, but then again neither would $1 be since I'm not interested in this package. I do also think they would have a greater success selling all the 2000 keys if they had set the price to 8-10 dollars instead of 13.99

IndieGala has been doing this for just as long as HumbleBundle has. You must just now be discovering them.

IG recently had a bundle called Indie Gala Limited Bundle so this is not the first time they are doing this.

HB also had limited offers before Not games keys, but on dicount codes (vinyl) and a limited boxset of some vinyl (in a weekly sale)

And that's weekly. HIB was the first one who have done it in their main offering, which indiegala is doing now.

it's not a normal bundle - it's anniversary of space engieeners realase. The price is much better for most of us than this one on steam. And you get two games in addition. It's only a 24h offer, but I don't think you should treat it as a fail. In my opinion this is a good direction to promote new games.

I hope I'm just over thinking this, but anyone else worried about the possibility of Space Engineers not even releasing?

Both Miner War games have been bundled multiple times, neither have good MetaCritic scores and now they're bundling their pre release?

Do all the previous bundles because they needed the money or just a realization that their previous game sucks and they just want anything they can get for it?

Time will tell!

Actually Space Engineers is doing extremely well on Steam. Not only that but the Devs have actually made some major patches since the early access release, and continue to release a new major patch weekly. So far they are proving themselves.

This is a horrible, horrible bundle, if we can even call it that... very disappointing, even for Indie Gala.
