I counted seven last time. But then this month I noticed I accidentally unsubbed, not paused.
Oh well.
Anyway.

I guess this counts as a Bundle Deal?
Under R200 (total of 92% off) for the full versions of three of the four most recent Battlefield games:
BATTLEFIELD 4 Premium Edition:
BATTLEFIELD 1 Revolution Edition:
BATTLEFIELD V Definitive Edition:
Similar discounted pricing for the games directly on EA Origin as well, but I don’t see them being offered as a bundle there. Here’s BF Vs offer page:

Another very decent single title Humble Bundle deal that may interest some:
This is a tiered bundle that covers the base game (for just $1) all the way to all 21 paid DLC elements for just $15.
These are all the DLC included in the full bundle, and their current Steam prices. The total cost comes to over R1000! (The base game and all the DLC get delivered as individual keys, so if you already have some of these or the main game, you’ll be able to gift the key to someone else.)
The Humble theHunter: Call of the Wild Bundle will be on sale for another 7 days, or while keys last.
This is fantastic! I have spent so much time in this game and the worlds and have a love for this game. If you’re looking to pick this up I would highly recommend it.
The new Humble Choice may just be the worst one yet in my opinion. Definite skip.
Yeah, don’t forget to pause two times again.
It actually had a couple of games from my wishlist so I got it, at $8 of course. We’ll see if I ever end up playing any of it though.
I found myself asking, “what’s the headline game?”
I think Project Wingman is coming to Game Pass anyway.
I don’t know about that. It’s generally kak, but I think there’s been worse Choice Bundles before. House Flipper is pretty chill and Project Wingman looks decent enough (haven’t tried it yet). If I didn’t already have both I’d maybe be tempted. Also, Wingspan is the digital version of the board game that @Shrike raved about a while ago… Didn’t even know it existed in digital form, so have that to the Wishlist, and will POM - Pause Once More.
Has been on GP for PC since July already and went to GP for Console last week.
ETA - Also, only 10 games this month? Isn’t usually 12?
Found an Oculus VR Bundle Deal running over on Fanatical at the moment. No idea if it’s any good, of any value but could be - Oculus users let us know…

I almost forgot to pause my Humble Choice bundle this month.
A better offering of headliner games in this month’s Humble Choice:
Mafia: Definitive Edition is excellent and Iron Harvest is pretty good too (but also available on Game Pass). Not sure about the rest though. Since I already have Mafia, and Iron Harvest on GP, I’ll be skipping.
For the first time in a long while I will actually not pause. My wife loved the 3 Mafia games and I own 2 and 3 but not the first one.
Some changes to the Humble Choice - looks like they are going back to the old model.
Mmm. I don’t think the model was the root cause of the problem here, but I’ll still keep an eye on what happens.
The new and improved version of Humble Choice is out. And, to be fair, the selections are not shocking. There’s 8 games and 1 DLC in the Choice Bundle. That’s fewer games than bundled over the last few months of Choice. But there’s definitely an uptick in the quality of the games.

(Table from r/humblebundles, localised by YTCAD.)
All of the games and the DLC pack are Steam keys this month - no Epic of GOG curveballs. The games have a total value of R2 136 at Steam’s normal pricing for South Africa. It is worth noting that all 8 of the games are currently on sale on Steam as part of their Lunar New Year Sale.
I think I’ll actually grab this one. I still think that when my year is up I will cancel completely.
I would grab it for bl3 alone, luckily I have the game.
I think I’m going to do the same. BL3 and two others have been on my Wish and Follow lists, and I only have one of the others in my library already. I still have 6 months of my sub left, after which I’m done with Choice too. So many other games, it’s just not worth it anymore.
Can a steam BL3 co-op/play with an epic BL3?
