It’s at times like this when I have to wonder — not for the first time — if I might be something of a sucker. In my last Humble Choice post, which incidentally wasn’t for June, I was close to cancelling. Then, with a growing...

Humble Choice: May 2021

by Naithin | May 22, 2021 | Humble Monthly | 4

I’ve been putting this one off, honestly. In the comments of the April bundle, I said the May bundle would be a decider for me. A decider on whether or not to pull the lever on canceling my Humble Choice subscription. I’ve been getting...

Humble Choice: April 2021

by Naithin | Apr 7, 2021 | Humble Monthly | 7

I’m looking for a word- or maybe a phrase. A way to express in the strongest way possible the feeling of, ‘Eh. It’s alright.’ Although even as I put words to that, I begin to doubt it. I’m sort of bouncing between that...

Humble Choice: March 2021

by Naithin | Mar 6, 2021 | Humble Monthly | 4

March’s bundle has some high-highs, and some fairly low-lows. But none so low as December 2020. (Seriously, what the hell Humble?) If you don’t yet own the top-picks then it’s a fairly easy choice to not pause this month in my...

Humble Choice: February 2021

by Naithin | Feb 7, 2021 | Humble Monthly | 7

Last month I had a bit of a grump. Shortly after that post I had another good look at what bundles have brought us of late, and yeah- there have been some disappointing months without a doubt. But you don’t have to go back too far to find...

Humble Choice: January 2021

by Naithin | Jan 18, 2021 | Humble Monthly | 6

I’m not sure how globally this applies, but, under the Fair Trading Act legislature of New Zealand it is considered a breach to advertise something as ‘limited time’ or being something special when it isn’t. If a particular...

Humble Choice: December 2020

by Naithin | Dec 6, 2020 | Humble Monthly | 2

Disappointing. Perhaps disappointing for any month — but particularly disappointing for the month of Christmas. It isn’t that there isn’t anything at all in here worth the price of admission. Just… The rational value...

Humble Choice: November 2020 (Five Game Challenge – Day 7)

by Naithin | Nov 7, 2020 | Humble Monthly | 0

Another bundle, another month, another ‘limited time’ offer to pick-up all twelve games in the bundle if you’re a Classic or Premium subscriber. Last month, for the first time in a while, there were some titles I was actually...

Humble Choice: October 2020

by Naithin | Oct 3, 2020 | Humble Monthly, Other Games | 5

The last two months have had it such that classic and top tier subscribers for ‘this month only’ received all twelve titles rather than having to select ten or nine respectively. So who knows how long ‘this month only’ will...

Humble Choice: September 2020

by Naithin | Sep 6, 2020 | Humble Monthly, Other Games | 5

It really is a matter of perspective, these bundles. Well- I guess most things are. But these bundles in particular. Or even if not, they’re what we’re focusing on right now. Magi quites like this month’s set. I’m less...

Humble Choice: August 2020

by Naithin | Aug 8, 2020 | Humble Monthly | 4

Hmmmm. August 2020’s bundle is… Not great. If not for the top two picks (for me) of Vampyr and Wargroove there is no doubt I would have paused this month. But that’s jumping ahead a little perhaps! Not too much else to say though...

Humble Choice: July 2020

by Naithin | Jul 4, 2020 | Humble Monthly, Other Games | 9

Oops. I.. uh.. sort of forgot to make a decision on whether or not to pause last month’s bundle. So that decision as made for me, and I own the bundle. Turns out… That may not have been the worst thing ever. The ‘bonus game’...

Humble Choice: June 2020

by Naithin | Jun 6, 2020 | Humble Monthly | 4

‘Eh’. That’s my summary of this month’s humble choice. You’re welcome. Oh alright. I guess I can muster a few more words on the matter and some semblance of a list. There are a couple of items this month which just...

Humble Choice: May 2020

by Naithin | May 4, 2020 | Humble Monthly, XCOM | 8

Alright, so I’m a little late on this one. The new choices came out a couple of days ago now but dangit I really wanted to get the top five most/least viewed posts out and out together. In that time, Magi put his thoughts up over on The...

Humble Choice: April 2020

by Naithin | Apr 5, 2020 | Humble Monthly | 0

Nothing as exciting as the news around the time of last month’s Humble Choice where I got myself a new(ish) Electric Vehicle. If anything the timing has turned out to be rather amusing given both the lockdown preventing any real driving from...

Humble Choice: March 2020

by Naithin | Mar 8, 2020 | Humble Monthly, Other | 4

Before jumping into the meat and potatoes of the Humble Choice post for this month, a confirmation! Just the other day, I noted that I was very likely to be the owner of a new Electric Vehicle before the weekend was out. This came after discovering...
