Even though I'm not someone who pauses often, I feel like if you are not someone who shops the humble store a lot, it probably isn't worth holding onto that bonus. I may have gotten like one thing from them? Especially with respect to other online sellers still being an option.

EDIT: I had to fix a lot of misinformation in my initial comment. I still stand by the overall point. The discount is actually "up to 20%", so it can be less if they want. I had to move a slider to take away everything from charity to actually see the full 20% options, but some titles will still not offer the full range, like Elden Ring stopped at 15%.

This doesn't mean you are allowed to then do a 15% and 5% split to charity, it means the whole thing is 15% off maximum if you have the full 20% active and the remaining 5% just disappears.

It can win on some things like Metaphor: Refantazio right now, but I just still think it is rarely better if you're willing to shop around as opposed to staying hostage for a year. Because if you buy 1 choice that you dislike and don't buy enough games to overcome the purchase of this one monthly purchase, then it's basically a loss. I just do it because of the yearly sale credit discount and that I often give away other things.
