Guild Wars and FC3 can be bought via VPN.

Fictionvision: So with region locked deals and only 3 DRM Free games the second day this is looking more like just another key reseller that happens to have some more DRM Free games than average and not a "GOG Killer".
I'm inclining that way as well. I'll still use them for crazy bargains on the occasional DRM-free game, but I don't see them supplanting GOG any time soon. The lack of installers for some games is another strike against them in my books.

keeveek: Humble offers goodies that are not on other stores probably except GOG
Humble offers prices in dollars (same as GOG)

that's just from the top of my head.
THAT is the interessting point. They are selling Steam keys for Indie games in USDollar and not only the crappy ones, like Indie Gala. During the last Steam sales it was always nice to see, that most developers matched the Steam Price at their "own" store and the humble widget. And with the "usual" 1:1 conversion this was always cheaper than Steam, GG or GMG.


Edit:
And than I read about the region locked Deals. This is evil Humble Store...

For me it'd be the Steam-ed games that I'd only have interest in.

wizardtypething: Nice to see Prison Architect DRM-free at last; but I think I'll wait for a stable build to be released (ie a beta).

Silverhawk170485: Prison Architect was always DRM-Free. If you buy it directly from the developers site you'll get a key which has to be activated on their site only one time to get access to the download page. The game itself isn't protected with some kind of DRM.

For that price I highly recommend buying Prison Architect. Yes it's called an alpha but italready has so much stuff in it that other developers would call their game a beta in this state.
Huh. Don't know where I got the idea that it was DRM-ed from. Good to know, been on my list for a while. Are you meaning that that buys a single download? Or am I misinterpreting you?

Too bad about Blood Dragon, for that price I would've considered it.

On the other hand selling Blood Dragon on the Humble store increases the likelihood of a humble ubisoft/uplay bundle...

That might be the only bundle possible to get more hate than the Origin one, except maybe a Humble Microsoft Bundle.

Why would a bundle get hated?

I saw people elsewhere complaining that EA was trying to buy good will and popularity from the Origin bundle. Considering UPlay gets more hate than Origin I can see people giving it a good amount of hate.

So even when you get great games dirt cheap, some still complain? I don't understand...

It's {insert company here}. Their work is of the devil, no matter what they do. If they decided to provide each and every person in the world with food, people would complain that they don't like the menu selection.

The worst thing about this is - EA as the only AAA publisher so far distributed 100% bundle profit to charity, while every other so far decided to keep the profit.

Yet, EA got the biggest hate, as usual.

I cannot seem to find a way to change Don't Starve on the HS to the version including the soundtrack. Yet the developers store still has it available.
Does anyone know if this is right? and do any other games have this issue of missing content available from the developers still.

This is not bashing HB but that particular bundle - EA got all the wraps for donating to charity, however people seem to forget with all that money passing through HB, THEY kept all the tips (fact - nothing as far as i remember said they were donating their tips at all).
