Second month I've skipped. These bundles keep getting worse.

Humble Bundle has proven itself to be just another capitalist cesspit. I wish people would stop shilling for them.
Last month was decent with Persons 5 Royal and couple others, but this one is pretty bad IMO.
Looks like every game is in the 70% ratings for this one. Meh to the max for me.
Personally, this one is my "jump off the bandwagon" month. Time to cancel that increasingly expensive subscription.
I actually thought it looked pretty good because of Return to Monkey Island (which has never been bundled before and the ATL price of which is ~half the bundle's cost). The average OpenCritic score (if that's what you meant?) for the games excluding the Destiny 2 bundle is high 70s, and the average Steam review score is 83% positive. Seems fine to me but ymmv depending on personal preference I guess.
Yeah. Too bad that you can't pause and keep the 20% off the store any more. Oh well I don't buy much over there anyway.
Plucky Squire and Return to Monkey Island justify this bundle for me
