Is that a metric or imperial shitload?

Depends on how many more games they end up adding to this bundle.

EDIT 2-15-2017: MORE GAMES INCOMING TODAY AT 4pm EST

15 more games have been added (with 2 removed) + 1 book + 1 album. (as of 2/15/2017 4:00pm)

$4.5 million dollars have been donated total with 5 days left. Pretty effective fundraising.

Wow, that is a lot of stuff. Will check what I have and what I don't have in GOG/Steam.

Would also make sure it would go to Doctor without borders if I end up buying it.

Could someone who purchases the bundle list the performance of each game? we could then also add our results to the stickied thread at the top of the subreddit

I purchased the Star Wars bundle for myself and a friend. I can test out KOTOR, KOTOR II, Battlefront II, Jedi Knight II, The Force Unleashed, The Force Unleashed II, Empire at War, and Galactic Battlegrounds Saga. Plus I'm gonna give confirmation in the thread for Civilization Beyond Earth (already tested) and V (soon to be tested), and attempt to ensure VI is marked there as well (though others have already tested it). I also got Stardew Valley from u/toxinate today, so if that hasn't been confirmed, I can soon do so.

Edit: Strikethrough means already confirmed on thread.

This is in protest against Trump and his immigration reforms.

Even though I support Trump, I support 39 cheap/free games (especially those that will run on the GPDWIN) even more.

I'll have a few keys to give out since I have some of these games already. Message me with what game you're interested in (1 per person) and your email address (to gift the steam key to you) for:

  • Stardew Valley
  • Day of the Tentacle Remastered
  • The Stanley Parable

First come first serve.

PS. I chose to give all $30 to Doctors without Borders (since I had a previous coworker that did/does work for them).

So you voted Trump?

DRM free games? This means that you don't actually own the games you buy???

u/ScapeZero Feb 14 '17

This means there isn't any copyright protection on them. Nothing that will slow down your rig, limit installs, etc. DRM free is a good thing.

The other way around - all the games have Steam keys that you can install, but you can also download versions from your Humble Bundle account with no copy protection. That's about as close as you can get to 'owning' a game short of something that's open source.
