Humble Bundles?

[ved]

I've known what humble bundles are for a while but I still don't understand the concept of them. What I got so far which may be wrong is: You have bundles and you have to pay to unlock them. Then you choose how much you want to pay for them. And they are cheaper to unlock the earlier you get there.

You pay what you want for one tier, then you beat the average amount of pay for the next, then sometimes there's a fixed third tier. Some of the money goes to Humble some goes to charity, and some goes to the devs. You can choose how much goes to each.

Yupp, it goes by averages   so you can pay what you want ( above 1$)  and you usually get 3 of 5 games lets say,  put if you pay more than the average the you'll get all 5 games

For example we have the Borderlands bundle so for the first tier which is the four games on top, I can pay like $1? Then if I want to unlock the six games in tier two then I have to pay the average to unlock those. For the third tier I have to pay $15. Do I have to pay once for each or do I just pay once and unlock however many I payed enough money for?

i believe if you pay the 15 you get it all

Yep, that's how it works. You just pay once, and if you pay you can up the amount later and get the rest. Also, if you pay a dollar now, the average will be locked at $6.54, if you wanted the others later, even if the average price increased.

That's amazing! So I can literally pay $1 for that first tier. Borderlands itself is $20 on steam!

Yep, that's how I got most of my games. And that's the GOTY edition too.

sometimes they aren't as good, add in steam sales im always broke. Compared to 60 usd a game its a steal.

I'll just go for $1 every time unless I want the tier two or three games like today. If I don't want any of the games I'll still get tier 1 for $1 so I can sell it as a gift.

[toughtrasher]

Yup, they have a ton of good deals sometimes and then just penny type games other times. I bookmark the website t check every so often.

E-books or physical books?

[blackadder]

E-books or physical books?

physical, mostly anime. I wish they would do science and tech books. Steam, gog.com and, humble bundle are 3 of the best places to look for games and deals.

Can't stand E-books and audio books

i could be wrong, probably am. I have never gotten a book bundle but, im a avid reader. Just thought the one where could get a lifesize pillow was physical anime.

I didn't get that one, but I have bought the Transformers, Doctor Who, and a few other book bundles and they were all ebooks. I think only the highest priced tier has physical items, like the pillow.

My only problem with Humble Bundles is deciding what to do with all my spare keys for stuff I've already got lol.

 

My Steam library is overflowing.
