• HumbleChoice for January 2023

    From Spalls Hurgenson@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 3 20:06:19 2023
    This year's HumbleChoice selection starts with a boom... stick.

    - Doom Eternal
    - Tribes of Midgard
    - Encased
    - OlliOlli World Rad Edition
    - Grow: Song of the Ever Tree
    - Hokko Life
    - The Serpent Rogue

    Obviously "Doom Eternal" is the big-name game of the month, and a
    welcome addition to my library it would be... if I didn't already own
    it. Well, it's never to early to start stocking up for the 2023
    c.s.i.p.g.a give-away (and the 60% off coupons for the Doom Eternal
    DLC is welcome). "Entombed" looks nice enough, for a top-down
    action/RPG (not my favorite sort of game, but I get some enjoyment out
    of them). I'm less sanguine about "Tribes of Midgard", a top-down
    co-op action/survival title, but I suppose some might like it. The
    rest seem to be filler; the usual assortment of low-cost Indie games
    that may or may not be good but I don't really care about either way.

    Minus the coupons, I might actually have skipped this month's
    selection, since the offerings - other than "Doom Eternal" which, as I
    said, I already own - aren't incredibly appealing. But since the
    coupons alone offset the price of the bundle, I think I'll grab it.
    And if you've don't own "Doom Eternal" but have waiting for the right
    time... well, this bundle might be the moment.

    (or, you know, just wait until December 2023 when I throw the key out
    to you wolves ;-)
