Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Fanatical has surpassed Humble in every way at this point. More bundles, more interesting bundles, often they give you pick-and-mix bundles so you can skip the games you already have, the discounts are bigger, etc.

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is. Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth
I only get the Humble Choice when they offer it to me for $6. I keep a game or two, then sell the rest.

I uaed to be subbed, but not anymore.

Fanatical supported the Black Looter Murderers though, if you're okay with that.

I mean for the 12$ its not horrible but compared to what they used to have its literal garbage. Remember December 2019 when they had Soul Calibur and Yakuya kiwami? Or more recently February 2021 when they had outward+dlc along with Valkyria Chronicles 4?

Its more like a shitty indie Bundle with a single "AAA" game tacked on.

Protip: Pause your membership and get an 4 dollar off coupon for hanging on ;-)
How long do you need to stay unsubbed for that? I never got one...
I think I read somewhere that if you're off for about three months you can get it. I've been offered it about 3 or 4 times in the past so it definitely comes back after a while. Honestly, as soon I found out about the origin key I just skipped the month (So I might get the 4 dollar offer again next month!)

itch.io is preparing another big bundle. Many interesting submissions already, although might be repeats for most people:


Hopefully I'll remember that this time around. I think I missed their last big mega bundle which was a bit of a shame since even though I don't want 99.9% of the games in it I would have liked to have purchased it just as the modern equivalent of a "300 IN 1" shovelware disc and spend a few nights downloading a bunch of bad janky shit and playing with it. Only heard about it once it was done since I never really look at itch.

Fantastic bundle, kind of a bummer I broke down and bought Ion Fury for cheap after waiting for it to be bundled for a while but not too broken up about it since I'm only missing out on HROT and Dread Templar. Really good shit though, Dusk, Ion Fury, and Hedon are all A+ and Amid Evil I'm not as fond of as many people but it's still an excellent shooter, and Project Warlock's decent especially if you're getting it along with all of this so you won't feel too bad if you play a few maps and don't care for it.

Fanatical has surpassed Humble in every way at this point. More bundles, more interesting bundles, often they give you pick-and-mix bundles so you can skip the games you already have, the discounts are bigger, etc.

Just to prove my point, Fanatical currently have a "BundleFest" going on where they present a new bundle every day for the duration of the event. The current bundles are really good.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/diamond-collection-build-your-own

3 for 15, 4 for 19, 5 for 23 Euros. And there are so many games in this bundle that interest me, I bought this one twice.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/platinum-collection-build-your-own-bundle

Another pick and mix, which is great because I already own several from this bundle. Mechanicus alone is already worth it, Partisans is decent too. Tropico 5 complete if you don't have it already.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/killer-bundle-21

The 5 bucks tier contains some pretty good stuff for the price. Gemcraft: Frostborn Wrath is one of the best tower defense games out there, the bundle is worth it for that alone. Shadowhand is fun if you like card games. And the Chaosbane tier has ALL the DLCs!

https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/build-your-own-anime-bundle-4

Eeeeeh... I don't like anime so I can't say anything about this one.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/build-your-own-backstage-bundle-2

Again, good selection of different genres, most of them are older games that were in bundles several times before but it's a very cheap bundle (7 games for 10 bucks!) and it's pick and mix, meaning you can just select the ones you don't have yet. Worth it for Styx, Wargame, Verdun, Mordheim, Driftland - I already own all of those but if I didn't, I would have bought this bundle.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/indie-must-play-bundle

Eh, seems a bit mediocre, lots of hipster games in this one. But again, this is really cheap.

Fanatical always have several bundles going at once, and there's something for everyone. The higher tier bundles include top quality games while the lower tier bundles are cheap as fuck.

Then again, Humble's recent bundles are actually worth it:
https://www.humblebundle.com/games/...ile_index_1_c_bestboomershootersbundle_bundle

This many oldschool FPS for that price... yeah, worth it for sure if I didn't already own all but two of those.

https://www.humblebundle.com/games/...hrees_tile_index_2_c_femaleprotagonist_bundle

I bought this one for Cloudpunk and Severed Steel. Pretty good quality bundle overall.

https://www.humblebundle.com/games/..._index_3_c_sidmeiersultimatecollection_bundle

Also a good one if you don't own all of Sid Meier's games yet.

Surprisingly good output from Humble in these recent bundles tbh. Didn't expect that.

Still, Fanatical wins out for having the majority of their bundles be pick-and-mix. You don't end up with duplicates that way, and you can skip the games you don't have any interest in, too.

I don't know...some of the lower tier bundles are nice, but especially those Diamond/Platinum Bundles are terrible. I couldn't pick three games from the list that are better than the current, or really most months, Choice for example. Even most of the other 12USD HB are better than this selection, like the Boomer Shooter Bundle.

15 dollars for KCD and Ghost of a Tale alone is a steal.
