These changes have caused uproar in the community.
Humble Bundle, to many, has cemented itself as gaming’s best way to support charity while celebrating your ever-growing backlog. With very fair splits towards a designated monthly charity, it’s hard to deny just how good of a value it really is. This is all on top of a fairly cheap price for their monthly bundles, making it all around a great deal. While that does continue to partially be the case, Humble is in the process of changing its bundles in a way that the community isn’t very happy with, to say the least.
To be completely honest, it’s hard to argue for Humble’s side. Even if financials are becoming a bit of a concern, removing functionality from Humble Bundles will do nothing more than just upset the few customers you have left. It’s better to look into exactly what is causing people to unsubscribe, that way you can target and correct it so that more are willing to subscribe or stay subscribed.
This isn’t even discussing the way they chose to test this feature. If you haven’t heard, Humble actually began doing this a little while ago under the pretense that it was an issue being sent to the appropriate team members. This type of deception only insinuates there’s more selfish reasoning behind this, and it’s clearly not working in Humble’s favor.
