eleve: It seems that new bundles have a gift button to the right of the Steam key. Old ones didn't and the Humble support page tells me that I am only allowed to pass on the entire bundle in that case...otoh, these "old" bundles (the one I am looking at as a test case is HumbleBundle 7 from 2012 or thereabouts) are not automatically redeemed and I am given a Steam key to then add each game manually.
Soooo...it would be possible to just pass on the Steam keys but is that legal at all? Or just a grey zone that could be used?
Let me try to answer your question. It is true that when you buy a bundle you get a set of keys that you can use. (I'm not talking about ownership, that's a different matter). "Use" means activate them or give them as gifts to others. Some bundle sellers have a "gift" button precisely for that, while others just give you the key. Soooo...it would be possible to just pass on the Steam keys but is that legal at all? Or just a grey zone that could be used?
The thing that Humble don't want us to do is to sell those keys as individual games. They give us the games at very low prices with the agreement to use them for ourselves. That's what I understand from the license agreement I signed when I joined the site.
So if you want to gift them, feel free to do as you like.

Cleaning up my bundles :)
From the Sid Meier bundle, I had the following duplicates that I'd like to gift to someone who might actually play them :)
Sid Meier's Civilization IV: The Complete Edition- gone
Sid Meier's Civilization V - gone
Sid Meier's Civilization V: Gods and Kings DLC - gone
Ask here and I trust the community to spot any bad apples :)
Due to a messup with the keys on my side, wy4786 ended up with Civ IV and V; phandom got the dlc
Enjoy :)

madth3: You might think they should be governed by the same laws but that doesn't make it true. Terms of use are different from store to store and from country to country.
Anyway, not wasting more time on this.
Sachys: Same. The guy has just batted back my own point with a different (and non-existent) context). Anyway, not wasting more time on this.

Well, I love Civ V to death but a lot of people keep telling me Civ IV was even better, so I'd love to try it out! From the Sid Meier bundle, I had the following duplicates that I'd like to gift to someone who might actually play them :)

But I'd suggest holding on a bit to see if someone who hasnt played any of them comes around to introduce them to the series. Either way, thanks a lot!

If anyone is Generous either one of these 3 games on Steam Sale:
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
F.E.A.R. Complete Edition
Metro 2033 Redux
I have questions for 2 of the games.
Is Brothers in Arms well optimized for modern PC. Especially is this game safe to alt tab?
Is Metro 2033 Redix more demanding than the original? I have a GTX 650 and the most demanding games I can play perfectly is Crysis 1 and Battlefield 3 and Skyrim with Sweet FX mod (I can play Battlefield 4 on Ultra but only with the resolution lowered to 720p to keep a stable framerate)

Would be nice however if people could help me get over the rep limit for a December giveaway though, I have to be over 15 rep for that, so it is just a little push, if I may ask for it.

You already have 13rep, so just two more days being active in the forum and you'll reach it (of course I expect you'll not be getting negative rep) ;-)
