NO ONE WILL EVER MAKE LINUX GAMES EVER AGAIN EVER BECAUSE THQ HAS A BUNDLE

Kristian: Yeah that will be their focus and that is bad. Now they are just another souless, moneygrabbing company abusing charties to get $$$.
... So, when they were selling DRM-free, multiplatform games, they were not, and now that they're selling games with DRM for Windows, they're suddenly 'souless, moneygrabbing company abusing charties to get $$$.' Wow, I can't even... You even get to pick how much money goes to charity, devs/publisher in this case, and humble bundle. Yes, that's just so rude and selfish of them.

You're ... You're right! And all games from now on will only require always-online DRM, because THQ has a bundle. WORLD IS DOOMED!

It'll all be Windows and require uPlay, Origin, GFWL, SecuROM AND Steam. AT THE SAME TIME

And you'll have to burn a DVD with each game on it separately so that you can do a disk check.

DraculaMarth and Fenixp, you are completely misrepresenting my views.

And StarForce, which will turn your disc mechanic into a cerberus, guarding your computer from your filthy enthusiastic hands! You won't even be able to remove harddrive, lest it'll bite your fingers off! Oh my god THQ, what have you done!!!1111!1!1!1!111!

You hate neutrality and think that the HIB are a bunch of soulless automatons because they made a charity bundle that happened to require Steam. I'd have to be trying in order to misrepresent your views

There is nothing wrong with standing up for principles.

There's a lot wrong with extremism.

Very good post on Facebook about this:
Arjan Adriaanse Humble Bundle was meant to promote indie, DRM-free and cross-platform games. People who think we should not complain about this bundle seem to only care about getting cheap games.

That a view is extreme doesn't mean it is wrong.

So have they officially said that they're never going to do DRM-free multiplatform indie bundles anymore?

Cause the Frozen Synapse bundle only had one game in it, and everybody thought the world was ending, and then every other bundle since then has been the same as always. That one bundle was unusual but it didn't start a new dynamic or anything.

It just seems a little Chicken Little in here.

But fundamentalism can be a bit unhealthy...

I have a feeling like this is all part of a master plan by Humble Bundle before they launch the 7th indie bundle. It's going to rock our socks off.

I have no idea what that's all about. A reference from the movie? I've seen it, but i don't know what it has to do with a game only having one bundle in it, lol.
