Which month is currently your favorite for the Humble Monthly?
Hi. Nice chart. Would be nice if you could add the early unlock to the list as well. Just for comparison.
But it's ok if you don't want to. :)

Thank you very much! Much appreciated. :)
I can be a little perfectionist and I do like to compare before deciding to purchase something or not. ^^
EDIT: And I regret not buying September edition. =/

Hello! Nice Chart.
May I make one suggestion/request....
Add one more column with the name of the primer game...
For those of us who don't have the game lists memorized and don't want to load HB.com to see what the list is. ;)
Thanks for your work.
(Edit: And then he reads the only other post, the one right above this one. lol :smh:)

Nice catch, I actually started my annual Sub in June so i was just reading previous threads quickly.

This is great. I've wanted something like this. Thanks.
You're missing Towerfall Ascension in the list of November games and Payday 2 in the list of December games, by the way. Remember, for the first few months, the early unlock was a game from the previous bundle. For the 2nd and 3rd month, to be precise.
Could also keep track of all the monthly games that have been rebundled in subsequent regular Humble Bundles. :)

I feel bad for those that started and never stopped, thats like 3 less games. =(

If you own the game in the "Early Unlock" column, it will show up as owned even if you didn't buy the particular bundle.

Now with more info (April 2017, and some of the May 2017)

I have an important question to ask fellow steamgifters, especially since the February 2017 Monthly has been voted in such an overwhelming way.
Did you really vote for your favorite Monthly bundle (as the questionnaire of this thread is suggesting), or just for your favorite game/early unlock in there? I think that I might know the answer already but I am genuinely interested to hear people’s opinions, especially those who voted for February 2017. Of course I am interested to hear everyone’s opinion on this subject regardless of what month they liked more.
Here is the actual question: Would you still vote for the same month even if your favorite/best game from there was not part of that bundle? Cause that would really answer the question of the poll (and would have possibly given more “interesting” results) : which is the best month and not just the best game. The overall value is they key point for me here. For example I would vote for April 2016 because no matter which game you remove from that month, it’s still a great bundle of games in the overal quality. I am waiting to hear your thoughts :)

I will answer your question - "Would you still vote for the same month even if your favorite/best game from there was not part of that bundle?"
-Yes, I would still vote for the same month even if my favorite/best game wasn't part of that bundle. My favorite monthly bundle is June (2016) and my favorite game from that bundle and the reason I started to be active (almost every month since then) subscriber is Rocket League. My answer to your question is yes, because even if Rocket League wasn't in that bundle I would still have great selection (quality & quantity) of games to play, trade or gift. For example:
The Forest - Easily could have been a early unlock to a monthly, Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes - Non-Bundled till then, party game that most of the people really wanted it (was popular in the streaming/youtube community). Also the rest of the games from the bundle are awesome to play or have high value to trade or make a giveaway for, like Dungeon of the Endless Crystal or Planetary Annhilation Titans.
I am not sure if you will get different results even with your condition. Maybe the results will be little bit different, but not by a wide margin.

Actually, it was an early unlock I have activated myself, and though I haven't gotten to play it, yet, I certainly will (having finished my master thesis in a couple of weeks).
But February also had nice other unlocks for me: Project Highrise and Steamworld Heist were on my wishlist, I decided on installing ABZU (also not played, though, but that will probably even come before XCOM 2) and Okhlos. Yesterday, I installed Ryse, but that mainly for a friend of mine who at times spends time at my house and likes that kind of game. And there's one thing on top: I didn't like January, not really girly kind of games ... well, that doesn't sound right, you know, I don't mean girly-girly, but those were really games I'm just not interested in a lot. So by contrast February looked so much better.
As for June: I didn't like the early unlock, but I have kept Steredenn and Dungeon of the Endless, given away Titans, but regretted it and won it later here. And I wish I hadn't given away Wasted. So: Close. Probably I would have voted June for second place, but I still think February was better.

I didn't want to say that the June bundle was the best, just personal favorite and also answered his question that the people would still vote the same even with his condition (to remove the best game of that bundle), which means that the Februrary bundle would still win. Also your answer is confirming that too :)

June 2016 is one of the best monthlies - even though I didn’t get it since I had RL already and it turned out that I had 2 more too. But… if you remove RL or The Forest this month looses some of its shining, if you are not a re-seller. WASTED and Steredenn aren’t some of the best monthlies, arguably. (I don’t want to underestimate these 2 games, I am just saying that there were even better games in monthlies. Actually I played Steredenn and it was fun).
I am almost certain that there would be different results under this condition and not just a little bit, because the February 2017 makes a wide margin by itself. Let's hypothetically remove X-COM 2 and see what happens.

It released on the Potatoth day of the Potato Month during the Potato year of the Potato Equinox.

Stupid question, is there a reason why the months that have two headline games are not linked (April 2016 and May 2017)?

Chart formatting mostly, i will try again tomorrow when I get a chance to update with the July unlocks to see if i can format it without breaking it again.

and yes, with links, like here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Humble_Bundles#Humble_Monthly_Bundles
first game "early unlock", rest of the games, so that they could be tracked by scripts, and links to the games

I thought it would be cool if we had a chart with all the Humble Monthly bundles centralized with msrp and a quick link to hop between them all.
(Keep in mind that these MSRP values are from when the monthly bundle was available)
