minus-squareFrankFrankson@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up79·1 year agoUh in 2017 Humble Bundle Inc. got bought out by IGN Entertainment which is owned by Ziff Davis …so yeah it’s part of a big shitty corporation.
minus-squareBURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up45arrow-down1·1 year agoHumble has coincidentally been a lot more shit since then too. I used to buy game bundles all the time, now it’s $20 to get maybe 2-3 games worth playing instead of $15 for 5-6 indie titles that were genuinely good.
minus-squareWhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·edit-21 year agoI stopped buying their game bundles when they started using Steam keys for everything instead of letting you download DRM-free. I still sometimes buy their book and “software” bundles, though, but I always check to see how they’re going to be redeemed.
