I’m on the fence. For once I own none of the games on offer. Vampyr and Call of Cthulhu look good, and Genesis : Alpha One seems like something I’d be interested in. The rest do not seem like games I would ever get around to playing.
I did see just now that last month’s bundle got even better with the ARPG Vikings : Wolves of Midgard added as a July bonus. That is awesome, as it was on my wishlist!
Dangit, I paused last month. Ah well.

Hmm, as an Advance Wars fan, Wargroove has a certain fundamental appeal, but I’ll have to think about this month’s other offerings.
Another easy pause for me. YMMV.

Excellent bundle if you don’t own Vampyr and Cthulhu, which I didn’t. They got me another month!
That grandfathered classic plan is such a great deal. Just need to set a reminder to cancel before it charges each month, if you don’t want that bundle.
Think I’m pausing this month. Nothing is really calling my name except perhaps American Fugitive, which I got for free from Prime or Epic at some point.
Just too many games already. I should play them.

Play them? Wait, you mean leave them on the list, right? Or install them and never start playing, only to find them when cleaning disk space 3 years later and then uninstall with chagrin? Surely you don’t play games?

The theme for this month looks to be games I’ve never heard of. Pausing.
Pretty much all the Steam reviews agree it’s underbaked and content poor. Some people still liked it for a bit. FWIW.

You never heard of Vampyr? It was a pretty big release.

Not necessarily the games I was looking forward to this month, but still the best deal you can get.
I’ll take it! Darkest Times and Little Big Workshop are up my alley, and I’ll give Call of Cthulhu and Automachef a try despite the reviews. (Already have Wargroove and Case of Distrust–both recommended!)
People in this thread are acting like Call of Cthulhu isn’t the giant flaming trash heap that all Cthulhu games have always been, is there something I don’t know?
Edit: And Cyanide developed it. It’s a Cyanide developed Cthulhu game, there’s literally no way that could be any good. Right?
Narrator: the twist was that everybody paused.
The new Humble Monthly is up (headlined by Vampyr), what are you going to do?
- I’m getting the bundle
- I’m passing on the bundle
- I’m unsure and will wait to decide until later in the month
Thanks for letting us know, I subscribed last month but I’d never have noticed that if you hadn’t said anything. Now, err, what is it? :)
All of that is too true these days. This last weekend I went back and actually played something (XCOM: Chimera Squad and the Legacy Pack missions for XCOM 2) and it felt really good to do so.
It still amazes me; I have a gazillion titles, yet none of these and four are on my wish list.
I was way more interested in Vampyr before I was living through a pandemic. Now I don’t want plagues as a backdrop to my games.
It sounds to be a fairly typical Cyanide RPG type of affair - deeply flawed but some folks like it.
