24 games to choose from and not one of them seems to be worth choosing

Well, hopefully they finally launch the Humble Bundle today (I saw a rumor that Terraria might be in it). Also the next Indie Royale should start soon... maybe it'll be the first one I buy!

Demise: Ascension is a great dungeon crawler. Devil Whiskey is fine too. Personally I'm tempted to buy this bundle for Telepath RPG, which I haven't played yet.

I don't see the ALL GAMES option. How am I supposed to add to the games I've bought but won't get round to playing for another year or two (or ever)?
They said it will be added soon.

This one looks better to me than most IndieRoyale or IndieGala bundles. AirBuccaneers (good chance to get it cheap), Survivors of Ragnarok, Tiny and Big, Project Black Sun... Well, I'm interested in at least 9 of them.

Damn. Was staring at the Indiefort list trying to figure out what I wanna grab, and I've come up with the following definites (Demise Ascension and Dark Scavenger) and the following maybies (Black Market and Devil Whiskey). Not enough to make me wanna grab a 6 game pack (None of them activate on Steam!) but now I'm not sure what I wanna do.
Not an edit: Though after writing my blurbs below that straightened my thoughts out a bit, so probably gonna skip Devil Whiskey. I guess. Maybe.

Most definitely Demise Ascension, main reason I'm picking this up. Doubt I'd ever actually finish it given how big the game sounds but from what gameplay videos/tutorials I've seen it looks really kinda cool. Skipped the first Gamersgate bundle with it and have since changed my mind.

Dark Scavenger sounds odd and is pretty tempting. I know it's listed in Greenlight, but what the hell. Strange setting and some combination of adventure game and RPG with turn based combat or some crap. Not as pumped for it as Demise but it looks interesting.

Black Market looks like a fairly simple space trading/fighting/piracy style game but well made. Probably nothing I'd be crazy about but looks like something I'd play a while.

And then finally Devil Whiskey. Possibly the one I'll end up skipping since it looks even more hardcore oldschool RPG than Demise Ascension. I'm interested but I'm really not sure I'd have the fortitude for it with my declined taste in videogames.

Really an edit: Went Demise, Scavenger, Whiskey. I've got other similar games available to Black Market (And shit, FTL), and if I'm really REALLY desperate to play it I see it's available from inventories. To not be taken from. Unlike the other three games. And even if Whiskey's too much for me I probably will be able to wring $4 of entertainment from the other two games unless things go awry.

Second edit: Fuck! Just finished my order and now Gamersgate tells me they ran out of Demise Ascension keys so I can't play! THIS IS THE WORST THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO ANYONE!
Supposedly they'll be getting more. Hopefully because that's the whole reason I bought the damn bundle.

Gaben is watching you, scooped down and bought all the keys. Don't try to turn away from Gaben again.

Decklin's support supplied me with a new key quickly. :bounce:
Gamersgate says they're still out, however.

I picked up Demise and Devils Whiskey and Telepath to make up the numbers. Couldn't find a decent 'free' version of Demise to test it and the RRP scared me off until now but for this price fuck it. GG will get any keys needed so I'm not worried.

5 Steam games I don't have for a buck? I'm in. I guess. Not sure I'll really play any of them but I have to make sure Bruticis doesn't overtake me.

Edit: Wait a minute, it's $6 minimum for everything but Brawe which I already have. Not sure I wanna spend $6 on this shit. In fact I'm pretty sure I don't.

I dunno. I can only buy so many horrible indie bundles before I start to choke on my own vomit. At a dollar I'd be happy to buy a lot of crappy games I'd likely never play. At $6 it gives me pause.

Apparently Groupees is going to be doing a Winter Wolves bundle sometime here too, for all your dating-sim needs. http://groupees.com/ww

Yeah this groupees shit is pretty horrible indeed.
No, it isn't. It has Secret of the Magic Crystals, which itself is worth a lot more money, I recommend buying it.
Kony, isn't that the game you gifted me? If so, I too highly recommended! There's a lot of C&C, questing, stats, all the cornerstones of a good CRPG.

indiefort platinum pack (all 24 games) is available now for $20

Ah fuck em, if they'd had that option earlier I would've gotten more of the games shit that they're offering, now I'm not bothered.

Also the reviews for Project Black Sun are hilarious, all the below average ratings are because people find the game too hard.

Another load of rubbish.

I should have done the same. I bought four of these games, and I even regret the $0.75 per game I paid.

Really an edit: Went Demise, Scavenger, Whiskey.
So, how did Dark Scavenger turn out? Is it worth it? I want to buy Demise, but I am unsure about the rest and need at least two more games. I already have Devil Whiskey, Cardinal Quest and Black Market.
