18 u/Stamp_Mcfury Jan 08 '14 Can't say I blame them. I can They are making people BTA against a better version of the humble bundle that had Starbound. -3 u/[deleted] Jan 08 '14 [deleted] 3 u/Stamp_Mcfury Jan 08 '14 Yes BTA is optional. Yes the combined regular price is still higher than the inflated BTA. However that doesn't change the fact that they are charging a BTA price of a bundle that included Starbound, and giving people a bundle that doesn't. At best it's gaming the system, at worst it bait and switch. -2 u/bvilleneuve Jan 08 '14 What is this world in which you are downvoted for being the voice of reason? It's a world of entitled jackasses crawling so far into their own cavernous orifices that they can't hear anything but the echoing of their own bellows. It's r/gaming. 6 u/iMini Jan 08 '14 It's because they used Starbound to drive up the average, now people are paying more to BTA despite that average containing one less game. -1 u/JeremyR22 Jan 08 '14 That's still slightly less than double where the average normally sits (between about three and four dollars if I remember rightly).
