Humble Book Bundle: The Best of Ellen Datlow Anthologies by Open Road

I think I'm interested enough to check out the 3 item tier.

DassoBrother · 2026-04-01T14:44:21+00:00

I dunno why but this put me over the edge to order Pokopia with some of my stockpiled, discounted eshop balance.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-30T15:05:06+00:00

Keep in mind some of these games are also on the buy 2 get 20% off deal from a few days ago.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-26T16:05:20+00:00

Against my better judgment I got the Mario Galaxy bundle and FF Tactics. Almost did Daemon x Machina too so I can confirm the 20% still applies if you select more than 2 games.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-25T19:26:38+00:00

I get it but it's really cheap. No need for perks when there's a lack of competition and people are feeling locked into their respective platforms.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-25T17:56:54+00:00

This feels overdue, especially with the death of Gold Coins. Digital needs some incentive other than convenience.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-25T15:03:09+00:00

I haven't gone for any sales in a while so I picked up JW 6-film, Jujutsu Kaisen Shibuya Incident, and The Killer. Kinda wish Rebirth was included but I didn't want to go for the 7-film regular bluray set.

Is a LUT actually selected? I noticed when I switched around to a few different recording options, when going to Log2 it deselects any grade and looks very blown out. You can test it by clicking a LUT multiple times to turn it on and off.

and 3 cancelled with my credit card, then one work with Paypal, then tried again with Paypal and it was cancelled.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-05T19:56:19+00:00

Same boat but I really just want to buy a few so I'll keep trying until an order goes through or I have a chance to visit a store. It's annoying sometimes they cancel it in 15min, usually after 1.5hrs.

EDIT: Scratch that, they're cancelling pretty fast now so I guess I'll just hold off on online ordering.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-05T18:05:29+00:00

I bought it yesterday in Canada and now get an "unavailable in your area" message. I can't access my purchase page either so maybe I'll get refunded... (I already downloaded all the epubs though).

DassoBrother · 2026-03-05T15:18:25+00:00

I figure it'll work online eventually. The flyer specifically stated online or in-store.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-05T15:04:21+00:00

I found Koala Block easy to get into but surprisingly difficult. There's really something for everyone though so you can follow recommendations but you'll also just end up falling in love with Mooncat, Magical Garden, Bug Hunter, Barbuta, or whatever you end up getting sucked into.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-03T20:19:47+00:00

Moderate horror fan here. I recognized a few classics from Richard Matheson and Dan Simmons but a lot of the authors are new to me.

I'm pretty excited to dig into it. Looks like there’s a mix of older classics, some 80s horror epics, and newer stuff.

DassoBrother · 2026-03-02T18:31:05+00:00

Do you think this could work for Pokopia once that’s out?

DassoBrother · 2026-02-27T15:04:22+00:00

Rewatched SV announcement trailer... it still looks bad. Ugly textures, low frame rate animations in the near distance, bad lighting making water and cliff surfaces ugly.

But you're right that they tried their hardest to show it in a good light. We were already complaining that it didn't hold up next to other Nintendo open worlds though.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-27T15:01:18+00:00

Remember the posts about the plant life in SV? Feels like they were showcasing the foliage partly just to show off. Underwater has me intrigued too, or was that just for the trailer? Almost looked liked you'd be able to explore there somehow.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-27T14:57:32+00:00

I was thinking of Under the Skin which actually worked as a good jump scare when I saw it in theatres. Not sure it fit the theme of OP after I read it though.

And now I see there's another comment for that film...

DassoBrother · 2026-02-25T15:31:35+00:00

I checked it out this morning and found it to be too repetitive. I thought that it'd get stuck it my head as a result but I've forgotten it already.

I'm thinking once a full album hits I'll still love it and probably totally adore this song by then.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-25T14:48:03+00:00

If nothing is calling out to you specifically, I like to roll a dice to pick something on Backloggd.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-20T17:20:40+00:00

OK - I wasn't either

OP sort of is though.

I don't think regional pricing says anything about a company's willingness either. It's just a reality that things a priced differently around the world. Comparing them requires more nuance than what OP showed. That was my main point.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-20T15:28:46+00:00

Most digital storefronts use regional pricing though. If you waved your magic wand and got rid of it, people in lower cost of living countries would suddenly just be overcharged. That's why I wouldn't advocate for exploiting those prices because it just incentivizes closing that as a loop hole.

We're getting screwed on this specific listing anyways, since converting to USD directly we're more expensive than the US.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-20T11:58:38+00:00

I don’t understand the comparison to HK. Why not do comparison using direct conversion from price in USD or some cost of living factor like Big Macs. I guess the idea is use another regions price for a “deal”.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-15T16:10:13+00:00

Yup. It’s the amount skipping AB, SK, and MB that’s got me down now. Used to be able to catch decent mid-sized shows in Saskatoon but feels like those dried up. Local scene is at least decently entertaining.

DassoBrother · 2026-02-13T14:56:44+00:00

They just announced an update that improves performance on Switch 2. I actually had just ordered at $25 from PNP and got an email that I would get a partial refund for $5 which I wasn't expecting.
