mistermumbles: Hm. I'm debating whether it would be worth a fiver for SR3 Full, Dead Island, and Metro 2033. The rest doesn't really interest me much.
I'd pay $5 just for Metro 2033. Awesome game.
still not enough added that i dont own already to make it worthwhile, looks like my wallet survives another bundle.
For $5, if you don't have Saints Row 3 or Metro 2033, it's definitely worth a purchase. Dead Island by itself is meh unless you do co-op.

Don't know much at all about Sacred Citadel, but I've heard that Risen 1 is the better of the Risen titles.
I bought it for Saints Row 2, Saints Row 3 DLC, Risen, and Sacred 2.
Everything else I own in spades.
I really wish they gave out separate keys for each game so I could have gifted spare keys for games I already own.
I can recommend Risen 1 to everyone who liked the first to Gothics, and I guess Steamworks is better than the nasty version of Tagés the international edition used (German version only had a disc check).
It's generally not as good as the Gothics, but is very polished and a bit more modern, it has a very, very nice questline and atmosphere at the monastery, which is probably the finest work PB has ever done. The characters and settings isn't as memorable, and it gets really boring and hack'n'slashy in the end, without even any side quests to do.

I just finished Risen 2, and I can really only recommend it to the most hardcore fans of Piranha Bytes. It isn't as bad as I thought it would be, and it definitely carries some of that PB charm, but it has some serious flaws that are just very hard to ignore.

On the other hand, I guess if you're not that big of a fan of their previous title, maybe you can appreciate R2 more?
Okay the c***s decided to tag the extra games (only want Risen1)only if u pay $5. problem is. I already bought at lower tier (bought for Risen2)as i have SR3 + DLC on steam already & DI. How many keys are given?.

That's why you wait until the bundle is almost over(or just pay the $5 average to start off with) if you're worried about stuff like that, no need to be nasty about it.

If you bought the lower tier before the new games showed up, you will find you already have the new key.

To go with what Drakhyrr said, if you bought the bundle before the bonus games were revealed (any tier), the new games will already be on your download page. If you bought the bundle after their reveal and still only paid a dollar, you can always increase your purchase from your download page to unlock the BTA games. Mind you, the price you need to increase to is locked at whatever the average was when you bought it.

amok: Having finally got to play Sacred 2 for a bit, I can say that it is highly recommended. The camera is very wonky, but I managed to find this - http://steamcommunity.com/app/225640/discussions/0/864971045017248829/ - which improves it a lot. Basically it says:

"oooorrr you go to "%HOMEPATH%\AppData\Local\Ascaron Entertainment\Sacred 2" (hidden folder) where you can find your "options.txt".
Now create a new txt file and name it "optionscustom.txt".
Open that file and enter:

-- Kamera Einstellungen

camera.behaviour = 0
camera.customsettings = 1
camera.cameraShake = 1

camera.cam1_trackdist_max = 2000
camera.cam1_trackdist_min = 140
camera.cam1_rotx_min = -0.20

camera.dng1_trackdist_max = 2000
camera.dng1_trackdist_min = 140
camera.dng1_rotx_min = -0.05

camera.heromenu_trackdist_max = 2000
camera.heromenu_trackdist_min = 140
camera.heromenu_rotx_min = 0.05

options.camera_mode = 3
options.cameraConfigAutoCurve = 0
options.cameraConfigCollision = 0
options.cameraConfigFollow = 0
options.cameraConfigZoomCurveMax = 20
options.cameraConfigZoomCurveMin = 0
options.cameraConfigZoomMax = 20
options.cameraConfigZoomMin = 0
"

Thanks to the user Sneak0r.
Thanks for this Amok, I going through Risen 2 right now but will apply this for Sacred 2 once I start with it.

I didn't know that; that's pretty neat. Right now it's only a matter of cents, but it's good to know for the future. =)

Yeah, it's a good thing if you buy it when it's really low but don't have the available money for the BTA at the time.

However, it's pretty horrible if you buy it high (like, say, near the start when only a few high donators are the base for the average). That can get to a point where you might as well just buy another bundle later on because it would be cheaper than to increase your initial amount to that Average price point.
Bah, curse my forgetfullness and poor checking. I bought the Deep Silver bundle a while ago, and ended up buying it a second time yesterday. @_@ Now I don't have the money left to buy the Doujin Bundle from Groupees that I was very interested in.

Maybe try trading with someone.

danteveli: Maybe try trading with someone.
Thing is, I am now wondering if I maybe already activated the earlier keys back then. Is it possible to redeem keys for the same bunch of games twice? I know it's not possible for a single game, but this is different.

Otherwise, is there a way to check if the keys are still redeemable without actually redeeming them? If so, I can check and safely use them for trading.
