sunshinecorp: Yup. Thinking of unsubscribing myself, as I'm not even remotely interested in next month's ARK.

blotunga: Broken Age would've been great but I already have it here. Maybe I should trade it...
I already have it here and on Humble and on Steam. Going to gift that one for sure.
Humble Monthly Gamble, designed to dupe like everything else that encourages blind purchasing. Just look at next month's temptation with ARK: Survival Evolved. ;)

I'm interested in ARK. At $12 I think it's cheaper than it has been on other sales, so I might consider grabbing one month just for that. Everything else can be bonus.
Well, i'm gonna draw the line and see where am i.

November:
Towerfall Ascension
Besiege
Valyria Chronicles
Lethal League
Sanctuary RPG: Black Edition
Saints Row IV
Legend of Grimrock 2

December:
Banished
Rust
Payday 2 (+ DLC)
Neon Struct
Chroma Squad
Company Of Heroes 2 (+ Western Front Armies + British Forces)

January:
The Talos Principle
The Masterplan
Mushroom 11
Grim Fandango Remastered
Spelunky
A Fistful of Gun

February:
Alien: Isolation
Penarium
Dropsy
Titan Souls
Broken Age

Underlined games are games that i had on Wishlist and i was waiting for deals in order to grab them. Italic game (Spelunky) was the only one that i already had. I'm pretty much impressed on how they managed to miss my game collection that have over 1500 games.

So, games that i really wanted:
Valyria Chronicles - 19,99€
Sanctuary RPG: Black Edition - 7,99€
Legend of Grimrock 2 - 21,99€
Chroma Squad - 14,99€
Company Of Heroes 2 (+ Western Front Armies + British Forces) - 68,96€
The Talos Principle - 19,99€
Grim Fandango Remastered - 14,99€
Broken Age - 22,99€

So, the total "value" of games that i really wanted: 191,89€. But, the reason why these games were on wishlist was because i was waiting for a good deal on them. A usual cut for older games is 75%, so i would have got them for around 48€, exactly as much as i payed for Monthly Bundles until now. I does not look like an awful trade for me, especially as i got a lot of extra games, and some of them are really nice.

I like that most games are new, recent releases. I personally never cared too much for new releases, as i didn't had great GPU in the past, so i got older releases so now, i don't get too many games that i already had from these monthly bundles.
Was my first monthly (caved and used the discount coupon from the HB a week or two ago), and can't say I am disappointed. I had my eye on Titan Souls and Dropsy and Alien Isolation. I already own Broken Age (twice), so I guess that'll be given away, and the rest seem okay (except for Penarium, which doesn't seem like my sort of thing).

Pity it doesn't include soundtracks, it seems some of these games have good ones!
Alien Isolation was already on sale on Steam, including a collection with all DLCs that actually costs less to buy that getting the game through monthly and they buying the discounted DLCs. This is the same tactic they used with Saints Row IV (giving the game but not the DLCs which are frequently discounted). That's some shady stuff right there, for people that subscribed just for Alien Isolation this really, really sucks (I don't care for it anyway).
They kill me with the next month teaser.

Last month Alien:iso was on my wishlist, this month Ark:SE is also (even higher) on my list >.<

Expect to see everything from this month on SG... (At least it should push me to the next level)

The general consensus on SG though is positive this month.

...and pretty much all of it (except A;I) is up right now on SG... mostly public 4-5+

Volume,Titan Souls and Dropsy.
Unsubscribed for now. Will skip next month and see how it goes. Don't want ARK, don't even know someone who might be interested (I mean friends). Was disappointed with how they handled Alien: Isolation (could get the whole thing cheaper with all DLCs directly from Steam, and it is a Steam only title anyway) and with the indie games I got this month. None of those were even on my wishlist. :)
I wanted Alien: Isolation so i decided to gamble once and pre-ordered this Humble Monthly Bundle.

Of course all the other games added yesterday are shitty games i don't want... :D

So i gambled once and lost - i learned my lesson and will never buy one of those lousy monthly bundles again.
