Well, I think hardcore players do spend money to do end-game dungeon stuff, but I don’t care about that.
I’ve been playing it as a more casual, almost SP type game.
I’ve been playing ESO since it went Buy-To-Play on PC and haven’t spent a dime other than the initial box purchase.
The store stuff is largely cosmetic and has little bearing on the game. Sure, the horse you buy for gold isn’t as exciting and cool as the mounts you buy in the store, and the store has all the coolest pets, but if you don’t give a shit about appearances then you can play to Veteran Rank 14 (max level) for that $12.

A few things that stand out for me in the GMG sale:
Space Rangers HD for $3.74/2.99
Ring Runner for $1.99/1.59
Bionic Dues for $1.49/1.19
Cargo Commander for $1.49/1.19
And on their VIP page there’s Dark Souls 2 for $25, Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4, Project Cars, and they must have thought that The Witcher 3 at $30 was such a great deal that they listed it twice.

This deal for ESO was too good to pass up. thanks for passing along the info.
Groupees is preparing to launch the JAST USA Visual Novel Bundle. No preorder, which means there’ll probably be a $10 tier again this time. The previewed game isn’t good, unfortunately, but hopefully it won’t be indicative of the rest of the bundle. More details when the bundle launches!

I played a lot of Mini Metro when it was a free web-based game. It’s nothing like Space Chem, but I did like it. I don’t know how much it’s changed since then (although the video on Steam looks pretty much the same). Supposed to be out of early access in early August I guess. I’ll probably pick it up.

I actually fired this up last week. I quite enjoyed it. It’s a lot harder than it looks. Plenty of strategy / randomization.

Getting Out of the Park Baseball 15 in this bundle is a steal - name your price.

Yeah, that and FlightSIm X for $10? I’m tempted to go for it for those 2 alone.

Threw in just for OOTP and made sure all the dev money went toward it.
I’d read at some point that the Steam version of Flight Simulator X was gimped somehow. Did I read wrong?
It is a steal but just so everyone is clear - v16 is already out. The new one has the MLB license, if I recall correctly.
Not sure of other differences.

Good point. I forgot about that

How long is this deal, or has it already passed? $12 sounds like a steal even if I don’t end up playing it immediately or exclusively.
Sorry, it looks like it has ended, but ESO has hit near this price several times in the past month or two so keep your eyes open since I’m sure it will come around again.

Not all the old payware is compatible with it yet. That’s the only difference I think to the boxed version.
(talking about the OOTP 15 in the current Humble Bundle)
The bundle also includes a 50% off coupon for v16, which makes it $20, if you really must have it now.
