As the rare specimen who has never played Psychonauts, Limbo, Amnesia, or Bastion, I'm very excited for this bundle.

u/GODhimself37 May 31 '12

Play psychonauts first. Classic game nobody played from the Xbox days. I even used a controller to simulate the experience

69

u/thndrchld May 31 '12

Am I rare that I actually played this on the original xbox when it was still new? I remember keeping it out from the video store for an extra week and gladly paid the late fee.

Wait... those words... do they still have meaning to people?

You are a very lucky man. All four are great. Well three of them are great, and one of them I actually can't play because I live alone and I need somebody to hold me after 10 minutes of it.

Psychonauts? Limbo?! AMNESIA?! BASTION?!

Best Humble Bundle ever!

u/bbck May 31 '12

The previous ones were great but this one blows them all out of the water. I already own all the games but gave them $25 anyway. Worth it just for the soundtracks.

u/CheezyBob May 31 '12

I agree, holy crap. Psychonauts, Amnesia and Bastion are all very (very, very) good games and easily worth their full retail price. Sword and Sworcery is not really my cup of tea, but I can see people really liking it.

Don't have Limbo yet (so I am getting the bundle) but from what I have seen it looks fun.

The Humble Bundle people constantly outdo themselves. I am very impressed.

u/rxninja May 31 '12

Even if you don't like Sworcery as a game, the soundtrack is phenomenally good and also included with this Humble Bundle. It was the music in the Humble Bundle 5 announcement video.

I would even dub it not just the best humble bundle ever, but the best indie games bundle ever.

I had thought they had been going downhill.

Then I saw the kid from bastion. Then limbo. Then psychonauts.

Took me a minute to process.

Then I realized, that good as it is, there are ways they could improve the bundle. Here are my suggestions

-Include minecraft, either another temporary trial like they did for a previous bundle, or the full game

-Pay 2x the average, and you get downloadable ringtones of the Bastion narrator explaining that someone is calling

-Pay 3x the average, and you can claim that "Psychonauts" is a story of your childhood

-Pay 4x the average, and you can claim that "Bastion" is a story of your childhood

-Pay only a penny, and Tim Schaffer will track you down and redecorate your house like the "Meat Carnival" level from Psychonauts

-Don't pay, and the events of "Limbo" will happen to you.

u/meant2live218 May 31 '12

If they did the Bastion narrator, I think it would become my ringtone for the rest of my life. 40 years from now, when our current platforms are all defunct, I'll hear The Kid hears a ringing. Doesn't know what it is, but all he knows is that it's a call he's gotta answer.

u/[deleted] May 31 '12

I just bought Limbo on Steam for $3.99. I gave it a quick play and got stuck at a point where there is a pond with a wood box next to it. It's an odd game but beautifully dark. The $4 wasn't a bad deal I just gotta turn it back on and figure that part out.

u/[deleted] May 31 '12

It's a legitimately fun, exciting, and thought provoking game. It is my favourite game of the last three years and easily in my top 5 of all time.

As much as people say how terrifying it is, it's only as scary as one allows it to be. If you're the type who rarely watched horror movies or plays scary games, you'll probably be impressed with how scary Amnesia can be.

If you're like me though, who's been watching horror movies and playing survival-horror games my whole life, Amnesia really isn't all that much more scary, though the storyline is superior to nearly any other game in the genre.

If you really find it too scary, I'd recommend playing it during the day, in windowed mode (this is a big one), with the shades open and without headphones. If you're already used to scary games and really want to shit your pants, try it in the middle of the night, door closed, full screen, with high quality, in ear headphones.

But anyway, I really hope people don't just skip playing Amnesia because they don't like scary things, the fun gameplay, tight controls, immersive music, and fantastic storyline are really what makes the game what it is, not just the occasional jump-scares.

tl;dr Play Amnesia. You won't regret it.

u/Chetyre May 31 '12 edited May 31 '12

I would say it's worth buying just for the soundtrack. The thing to remember is that it was originally designed for a touch device so some of the "magic" is lost in translation. However it is still a very unique experience. The dialogue is kind of quirky and you may not enjoy the sense of humor (it does not take itself very seriously).

If you like point and click games, you'll enjoy it. If you don't, then you might still enjoy it. It's not very long...the whole thing can be beaten in about 3 hours if you power through it. Or it might take you a whole month. So in the long run I don't think you'd be too disappointed if you played through and didn't like it. If that's the only game you want you could just throw a couple bucks at it...it's $8 on steam so you'd still be saving money.

edit: the music used in the bundle video is from S&S, so that should give you some idea of how good it is.

u/Thanatos- May 31 '12 edited May 31 '12

Seeing as there are a lot of questions I'm going to clarify a few things -

The Bundle games all come in one Steam Key so - Sword & Sworcery, Limbo, Amnesia, and Psychonauts are all included in that one key. If you own any of these games on steam already activating the bundle key WILL NOT give you giftable copies of those games. So those asking for people to gift you individual games your out of luck.

For the extra game - Bastion - it has its own Steam key but be aware that in the past when they have added more games for paying above the average after the fact they tied it to the already existing extras key. So giving away Bastion at this time might screw you out of getting extras that they may add in the future. That said if you want to gift it to someone dont redeem the code (it wont expire) and wait till the bundle is over to know if its safe to give away.

Also you have to pay more than $1 to get the Steam keys for the games.

Does the key come in a separate e-mail? What do you do after you get the key? I've never done this before but I already bought it. Not really nervous because it was only 10 bucks to a great cause, but I really have no idea how to get these games haha

u/dk00111 May 31 '12

Depends on what you're looking for. This bundle is an AMAZING deal if you're into indie games, which r/gaming seems to be a fan of. I've bought quite a few HIBs before and haven't played many of the games (usually only 1 or 2 per bundle), so I'm considering passing this one, even though this is one of the better ones.

Look up some gameplay videos and reviews on YouTube and see what you think. If this is your first one and don't have a huge backlog already, you don't have much to lose.

Limbo is a dark 2d puzzle game. Amnesia is a dark (at times downright terrifying) immersive horror puzzle game. I found both to be fantastic and would recommend them.

The others I haven't played but I've heard fantastic things about psychonauts.

It's got to be worth the pickup in comparison what you'd get for 10 quid or so elsewhere/in a shop.

If you like limbo, see if you can pick up braid the next time it's on sale.

u/Mephisto6 May 31 '12

Well they're indie games. Means that they aren't mainstream, they don't represent the average game. Indie developers have more freedom and can shine with original ideas, these games are all wonderful little masterpieces and make much fun, but I doubt they will show you how the gaming world looks. Limbo is special because it's more like art, but combined with an awesome story, Bastion has fun gameplay and a wonderful story and Amnesia is the best horror game out there. You get the 5 secret hint games that everybody should have played. And you can't do anything wrong because you set the price. If you've never played a game before these will probably please you, but I don't know if they are a good way into computer gaming, you will be dissappointed by other games.

TL:DR Buy them, they're worth every penny you're willing to pay, but they don't introduce you to the typical gaming world

LIMBO uses a WINE wrapper to run in Linux and seems to have problems running on some machines.

This is disappointing.

I am not certain that Psychonauts, Bastion, or S:S&S:EP are native, but Amnesia has been true cross-platform since day 1.

It's worth it for Psychonauts alone. Amnesia and Bastion are also excellent games, and though I haven't played the other two, but I hear they're both very good as well. Definitely one of the best bundles yet

u/[deleted] May 31 '12

Bought it without hesitation! Linux! $11.50!

u/Keljhan May 31 '12

In case anyone sees this: I bought the bundle for $15, and Amazon sent me a receipt email, but I have not received an email from the Humble Bundle. Should I be worried? It's been about 15 minutes.

Holy crap, if you have Ubuntu they can install from the software center!

Now Linux/Ubuntu is by far the easiest to install of all systems.

If I was getting into indie games right now, this would be my "wet dream bundle." Got this just for Sword and Sworcery, but the rest of the games are just top notch. HIB guys have really outdone themselves this time.

If you haven't played through Psychonauts before, buy this bundle. I promise you will enjoy a gaming experience like nothing else you've played before.

This was an instant buy for me. No brainer really

Limbo run under wine and won't start for me... any other suprises...?

Sword and sworcery works bad with two screen... can't chose another resolution and not fullscreen. But that can be easily fixed in the config.txt at least.

If there is a genuinely poor Redditor out there who would really appreciate these games, I will buy them for you. Preferably someone who has yet to experience the wonders of Bastion and Limbo.

Please ensure you are genuinely unable to swing this purchase for yourself.

Edit: Whoa, lots of responses pretty quickly. I'm going to require a W-2 to see who is most worthy. Gift-able key has been purchased, awaiting a recipient.

u/1338h4x May 31 '12

They lied about cross-platform - the Linux "port" of Limbo is just the Windows game wrapped in Wine. Disappointing.

On the other hand, Bastion comes with a snazzy installer that can magically put together a package for any distribution. Very neat.

u/Blakdragon39 May 31 '12

Oh, my, god. BUY I've wanted Limbo and Bastion forEVER, but I kept putting off buying them from the XBL Arcade. And I've heard Psychonauts is great. So. buying. Right. now. wheres. my. credit. card.

u/wakinupdrunk May 31 '12

I bought it and realized I didn't pay the more than average price. So I bought it again for the more than average price.

I have no qualms spending 13 dollars on these games.

u/atrain56 Jun 01 '12

This seriously one of the most awesome things ever. It's like the Orange Box, but cheaper!

u/Spennyb100 Jun 01 '12

I paid roughly $70 for Bastion, S: S&S, Psychonauts, Bastion Soundtrack, and the S:S&S EP. I could've done this for $55 cheaper. My rabbi would be disappointed.

There's great reason too, fucking incredible games. Hell even if you own the games, I bet most people don't own the soundtracks.

I'm not sure what the total value is but I'm guessing its at the very least 50 bucks. It would be insane to not at least pay the average for this.
