So, there's this Bundle Stars Mega Dollar deal, 28 games for 1$, 24 games have cards ( assuming 3 drops is minimum ) = you will still have a profit no matter how small the amount is, you still have the profit. How often do this kind of bundles come out? not like a bundle of 25+ games but bundles that contain, GOOD GAMES / DEALS for only 1$ ( eg. Insurgency + Indiegame + Ingiegame = for 1$ ) is still good bcuz Insurgency is a nice game that most people will want, therefore profit..

my looks are

  • good game bundle ( like the eg. given above )
  • 25+ game pack ( even tho they are Indie games and mostly are *&^( in reality, atleast the drops still gives you some profit )

I am just beginning on this bundle stuffs..

Rarely. That's the first bundle I've seen with that many games for a dollar.

Good game bundles aren't rare though, IMO. That 28 game bundle was not a good game bundle.

Saying that about indie games in general was very mean.

not every one is, i meant most of them really, self based, off - steam reviews / player counts ( now | highest of the day | highest record )
I am so sorry if you got offended or every one else.. i have to change it.

They are still made out of passion.

Let's say you love building paper airplanes, but you're not very good at it. You show a new design to a friend and he gets to see it in action, only to tell you your plane is shit.

That's what you're saying about all of those games devs have generally put love, time, money and effort on.

Things going on at this rate, for each good indie games there'll be a dozen or 2 trash one... :\

I think many already know this but still.

Less quality control, more released games, higher percentage of not-so-good games compared to 2013 and before.

Let's say there were 200 Indie games during 2013 and 120 of them were good, and in 2016 there were 1200 games and 300 of them were good. Pick your favorite year.

idling hours for few cent profit... i wouldnt call these trash bundle as great^^ but if you are interested in this kind of stuff, you can do it more pro like:
create many steam accounts and buy for every account one bundle (and idle also the f2p games with cards)
maximum profit till you get the electricity bill
but you dont need new "great" bundles very often. you can just use one bundle as often as you want^^

planned it but still thinking, ( so did not prioritzed it first but, still a "good idea" but, )

  • F2P games with cards will not drop cards unless you spend 10$ in-game ( another 10$ drops another set, so a little bloody )
  • More accounts for farming good, but more accounts to put 5$ each just to allow trading
  • More accounts for farming good, but more accounts to be able to cancel the trade holds.. ( authenticator for each OR, at least being patient to wait 15 days each )

You can idle multiple accounts on a single machine with asf, so the eletricity bill couldn't change. You can also idle them while playing games out of Steam or in offline mode.

They're rare. Thanks to greenlight a lot of bundle sites just package a bunch of garbage together since there's so much of it out there. And VR has only made things worse. Humble Bundle is still easily the best of the bunch with Bundle Stars being close. There are usually new bundles released every week so there's always a possibility that something good will come out, but it's not a given. Anyway, you should buy bundles based on what you like, not necessarily how you will profit from it.

Btw, I don't hate greenlight but you can't deny they have hurt bundles for the most part.

I don't get the thing with getting games just for idling the cards. I stick to games I want to play. If you factor in the power consumed by the computer when idling (which is fairly expensive where I live, compared to other countries), and the time needed to sell off the cards, for me it's just not worth it. I also wouldn't want a lot of games I would never play in my library.

....but with just 25 games in your library, most of them pretty good ones, I guess you have an alt account where you add all the games you get just for the cards, right?

I regret so many of my past purchases / wins because it was like YAY, GAMES :\ it would be high time catching up with the backlog, thankfully I barely buy anything (but HB monthlies every now and then) lately :)
