I'd been thinking of getting Mordheim City of the Damned so that's good, and The Flame in the Flood looks interesting, plus didn't own the Escapist.
I seem to keep getting lucky with these bundles and despite owning 4300 games almost, these almost never have games I already owned. Guess the pool of games they select for these bundles are different than what I usually buy.

Wow, very happy with this month. been wanting to play Mordheim and Flame in the Flood for a while. And I'm tempted to get Vermintide too...

Briefly looking into Mordheim City of the Damned, it resembles Valkyria Chronicles.
I don't know where I've heard of the Flame in the Flood (maybe on the Giant Bombcast), but I'm intrigued. I'll probably give most of these a shot, was well worth $12 just for Dragon's Dogma.
I've never really gotten into Warhammer games, but I just checked Steam to see what Vermintide sells for - apparently in the last month I put it on my wishlist already. So I'll probably end up sticking around for at least one more month.
My poor, poor backlog.

Escapists is pretty good on PS4. Glad I skipped though since I have that and none of the rest besides hacknet interest me. Is Warhammrer that turn based game like XCom?
Not bad at all! Only game I had was The Escapists (base game), and Hacknet and Flame were two titles I'd had in my wishlist... almost bought Flame recently too, but these monthly bundles actually help prevent me from making impulse Steam purchases. 
I'm in early for Vermintide as well, why not. LOL

Same. Been wanting to play Flame in the Flood for a while. Haven't had a chance to play Escapists on xbox yet, but it seemed like it might be a fun distraction. Like a top down 2d pixel based hitman game.
I played it during the free weekend and had no idea what I was doing. Seems incredibly complex.

Does Mordheim come with any of the DLC?

I can't post in the sales thread yet, but if someone is selling Vermintide I'll buy.
It was the early reveal of this months games. Unless you bought it already, you missed it.

No, only the base game.

Not bad. It was worth it for Dragon's Dogma for me, and Mordheim looks like something I'd play.
I don't think I'll stick around for next month. Already own Vermintide and all DLC.
Verminitide is good. Like Left 4 Dead in a fantasy setting. Character progression can be slow and unrewarding at times.

Pleased with this month, but next month might not be so hot for me. I tried Vermintide on the free weekend and didn't really like it all that much. I don't generally like games like that because I like to explore, and that generally doesn't work in co-op settings, espeically if you have guys who already know everything/want to rush through for more loot when you match make.

Already own Flame and Hacknet but those alone make for a great month.

The Escapists is pretty fun but i've only played about an hour of 2 of it. it's a fairly interesting game but some things are not intuitive to the player. i recommend watching a tutorial or something to figure out the beginning part of the game?

So i didn't get this bundle as I had DD and don't like the blind risk that comes with these. I'm wondering though if anyone has a spare key for Hacknet? I'd be down to paypal you something for it.
Check your PMs

Well, wish I knew Stardew Valley was in the Humble Bundle for November... I would've signed up because I've been trying to buy it for a couple weeks now in BST. >_<

It's cheaper on Steam today ($9.99).

I know, I ended up buying a $20 Steam gift card on Amazon with a $10 Amazon gift e-card after I found out from the topic here on My Coke Rewards having it available. UPS should be here any time now. I plan on using for this and Starbound or maybe taking another $10 off Trails in the Sky SC when they go on sale again. Stardew being a part of the HMB explains why I saw so many keys for $4-$6 which I missed last month.
I didnt have Dragons Dogma, but I have had pretty good luck selling keys on GAF that I have duplicates of to subsidize these bundles.
Especially since there's usually one game in the bundles that has never been cheaper than $10-20 on its own. If you have that already and can sell the duplicate for $6-7, the rest of the games are super cheap. If you don't have it, it pays for the bundle itself.
huh?
you shouldn't have had to much trouble buying it if you listed
WTB stardew valley $7
I've seen them constantly being sold for $5-$6 o.o;

Best month so far for me.
Been after Flame in the Flood for months now, Escapists I've been meaning to try, and Dragon's Dogma kept me subscribed.
Kudos, Humble.

It's just kind of a hard swallow for me to pay 17~ CAD when you own the showcased game (in this case DD) and have a large collection of Steam games already and might get dupes or they just be bad games in general.
Like that September bundle really burned me and put me off of the whole thing, got it for SOMA, but WWE 2K16 is not my kind of game at all, Banner Saga I had, Epistory looks not fun, Town of Salem I already had, and The Uncertain was a demo...
You can use the b/s/t thread in gaming community. Just dont sell your keys the first week or two as you will have people basically throwing them away. I saw people selling Mad Max months back for $3-4 despite the fact that it had never been cheaper than $15-20.
Obviously the fact that it was in a $12 bundle limits prices, but in months like this one where one game is the major draw, I don't see the issue with selling it for half the bundle price.

Probably, I was generally sticking to $6. Bad timing on my end I'd put up a post, then there'd be a new page with someone selling and by the time I saw it it'd be sold.

Damn, my first Monthly and I'm disappointed. Luckily I primarily bought it for Dragon's Dogma ($10.80 which is lower than the recent Steam sale) so I'm not particularly burned on it, but I kinda hoped for better/more well-known games. Not saying the current games are bad of course, just never heard of them before and as a result less excited. Still gonna give them a try.
On the other hand, Hacknet seems to be pretty fun though, I'll fire it up next week.

It is part of the principles behind Humble Monthly. Make people discover top-rated but somehow obscure indie gems.
