In for $10 even though I need to build a new gaming PC. Figure my Macbook should handle a few of these in the meantime. Great bundle.

It seemed like Hack N' Slash had a good concept, but left a big chunk of the potential fun out by only giving you a list of variables that could be altered - which is almost certainly an easier route (both from creation and usability standpoints) compared to something like Else Heart.Break(), which is more free-form and lets you get more hands-on and creative with solutions.
During the first few minutes of a bundle going live.
At the very beginning. Unless a ton of people really go for the low tier.

Typically the instant it goes live. I don't think I've ever seen it trend down outside of Steam holiday event shenanigans.

I wasn't thinking about selling the steam keys but using the steam keys on your account, running some sort of idling program (such as idlemaster or ArchiSteamFarm) while on your computer anyway (this negates the fact it tends to take at least 4 hours per game to get all the card drops these days) and then putting the trading cards earned onto the Steam marketplace to get some steam wallet credit for those rare occasions you would buying something from Steam.
Bundles tend to kill the value of trading cards (market gets over supplied) but it is still 7+3+5 cards which a worse case scenario of selling them at $0.03 a card (giving you $0.01 once developer takes $0.01 cut and Valve takes $0.01 cut) would eventually give you $0.15 of Steam credit. That wouldn't be a bad deal for $0.10.
Of course it isn't just $0.10 but the effort of doing the above as well. Staying away from it is probably the better thing to do here but I hope that gives you insight into my thoughts here.
Early on average is most volatile as individual purchases have greatest power in changing it at that point.
I'd say it becomes stable about 10k purchases and increases over time after that.
You can look at some historical data here. At a glance sometime in first 24 hours.
I was lucky enough to see a 0 bundles sold once but sadly didn't screencap it but I seem to recall it started at like $10 or $15 average.

Very nice bundle.
The only game from it that I already own is Retro City Rampage, and I've been wanting to try Outlast since forever.

That is one hell of a bundle. For once it was completely made up of games I don't own too!

Not actually that important
Holy shit the $1 tier is the best it's been in years

For $10.80 I'll give the monthly bundle a go. In for ARK I guess and whatever is in there.

Many of them are worth checking out. Personal taste and all that, but I can attest a few of them are quite good from what I've played (and the others simply I have not played so can't say any personal opinion).

BTA + $2? Well, that's one way to get the average to constantly climb over time, instead of staying roughly in the same place, I guess.
(...although it's actually gone down since the image in the OP, so what do I know)

In for $10. Sunless Sea is dope and I'll be handing that to me bro since I already have it and haven't played nearly as much as it deserves.
Been wanting Outlast for a while, so this is very good. Very solid bundle.

I enjoyed Never Alone enough to finish it and I didn't really expect to so I recommend trying it out.
EDIT - Outlast too.

I had been waiting for a nice sale price for Sunless Sea, so I just went all in. Apparently Sunless Sea is not a game really designed to be a roguelike, with games stretching well over the five hour mark, so I'll probably play with savegames enabled.

I need this like I need a hole in the head, but still couldn't resist. BTA+2 to see what Sunless Sea is about. Overall looks like a pretty nice bundle.
Hope to see Broforce or Fistful of Gun added.

Just a heads up Sunless Sea font size is very small and makes it hard to read. They're SUPPOSED to fix it when they release their DLC but I found it unplayable due to this. It's been complained about since the alpha when I bought it.
Here's a full size screenshot so you can decide if it'll be a problem for you

Depends on why you were down on it. If you didn't like the writing or how much of it there was, then no you're never gonna like Sunless Sea. If you were down on it for being too slow then you can grab a mod to speed the game up, but there's nothing built into the game to really speed up the early portions. If it was too difficult, then yeah there are probably ways to help with that in-game.

Sunless sea is one of those games you need to go into with low expectations. It demands a LOT of players, is fiddly and I think it is unlikely that many people will take to it. Do not be surprised to find it boring and wonder what all the fuss is about.
But if you try it and are the very specific kind of gamer who will enjoy it? Happy days.
Just don't bother with Never Alone. It flat out sucks.

Retro City Rampage+Door Kickers are already worth the BTA price.

Huh, completely missed this news.
Sunless Sea is the reason to get this bundle... And Trine 3 is the reason to avoid it. I'm conflicted.
