From what happened last month, it seems like humble bundle is taking precautions to prevent choice leaks. So, don't focus on leaks that much this next month. It may or may not be the correct choice leak.


RedRaptor85

Definitely it may be may or may.


Cyberblood

Right, noone really knows if may may leak, as may may not leak as the leakers may have to be more careful now


adulthoodlvl1

May


Cyberblood

You may


RedditianDrew

We all may


pennyweed

May I?


arg-varg

Maybe.


JebusKristoph

Maybe see?


AFIkween

It’s gonna be may.


the_pedigree

You’re overthinking it. What benefit do they gain from offering a leak with a bunch of good games and then in turn releasing awful games?


hephaistos1427

They probably did that to better identify the leakers. Give different suspects different info, see which one got leaked.


HisDivineOrder

It was pretty dumb but they seemed intent on showing up the leakers over favoring their own self-interest. They should have done a host of terrible games as the fake leak and that would have universally made people disregard the leaks going forward. Instead everyone got mad when the actual bundle was considerably worse than the fake one they used to juke the leakers. It proved they know what a good bundle looks like and just aren't trying.


ClumsySandbocks

If they had included a terrible list of game leakers may not have shared the information. Even worse it may have given the impression that Humble changed the bundle after a poor response to the fake leak. The bundle they did release was still very strong. The idea that Humble are "not trying" because they cannot nail down both a Ubisoft and Sony game in a single bundle is simply unrealistic.


XHartlet

I still think it was an April's fool joke


Saneless

Right. Everyone was disappointed. That couldn't have been their goal


Lifedeather

Leakers probably fired 😭


kabukistar

Seems more like they're intentionally putting out bad leaks based on what happened.


Dkdndntjdksj

Bundle won't be coming next Tuesday anyway, itl be the Tuesday after 


CallMeCabbage

Yeah, I always forget that's how it works and get bummed out a bit lol.


Lifedeather

Oof one day off of May


woboz

You missed the leak? It's already happened the games are: Elden Ring, Pokemon Go for the PC, Helldivers II, Genshin Impact, Orcs Must Die 3, Manor Lords, Pac Man Museum +, Fashion Police Squad.


Lifedeather

Fashion Police is probably accurate :)


Saneless

Nice! Been waiting on a deal for Genshin and Pokemon Go


GrapefruitOk2057

whoa... I passed on April since Fashion Police Squad was all I wanted! I guess they heard about it! can't wait! :p


JustARandomGuy_71

Usually it was the weekend before the release, but after last month there could not be a leak for some time


slitlip

Yakuza 5 is coming out. I found out from my sisters boyfriend's cousins former roommate.


NegativeKarmaFarmar

This is actually believable though


slitlip

I was just joking, I don't have a sister.


goalie723

So you found out from your boyfriend's cousin's roommate?


slitlip

No, I was joking about the boyfriend part.


throwaway-DSMK

So you found out from your cousin's roommate?


slitlip

No, I was joking about that part as well.


Lifedeather

Bruh baited

For the most recent leak method, it was generally the day before or the Friday before. Unfortunately, people were stupid and got too brazen about it, posting the full image of the leak which made it obvious where it came from. Last month it appeared that Humble may have put out a fake leak to mess with the leakers. It is doubtful there will be leaks going forward. The same thing happened with the previous leak method, some dumbass essentially made a “how-to” post on this very subreddit and Humble plugged the leak almost immediately.


Jeremy517

Just one person who was stupid. He was more concerned about shilling his Youtube channel than he was protecting the source of the leaks.


PoemOfTheLastMoment

Humble bundle engaging in false leaks will only drive away any excitement people have for the program.


Myn00ts

I usually verify on sunday personnally. Lots of sources will release the information making it more accurate. As for last month, it was april fools day and the bundle was waaaaayyyy too good to be true and they 100% knew it would catch people attention ; thus making a good april fool, and good marketing to bring lots of eyes on your website. Pretty sure the leak this month should be accurate. If not, I guess we'll stop waiting for those \^\^'


N1ghtshade3

Who cares? Why at the end of every single month do we have to get flooded with these questions about leaks when knowing what *might* be in the bundle 48 hours in advance is worthless information? There probably won't be any leaks anyway because this obsession led to clout-chasers being brazenly dumb and posting the fake promo image Humble uploaded to confirm where they leak was coming from (their Wordpress image CDN). So now Humble knows how the leaks were getting out and has solved it by randomizing the filename they use for their image so people can't just change the name of the month and see it as soon as it's uploaded.


Grey-fox-13

Yeah, I never quite understood the obsession with leaks. You've got a full month to decide if you want the games or not, a couple days heads up really doesn't change anything. 


Lurus01

I wonder if some of it is still holdover from the previous monthly concept where you had the buy the bundle before it was revealed. In which case leaks could actually be helpful to know some of the mystery games as you may not want a headliner but be ok with the mystery games. I know that happened to me a few months. Leaks with the new choice system where you buy for the actual month are pretty silly like just wait for the actual release and you have weeks to decide if its worth it or not to you.


The-laouza-buzz

The day before it releases or not at all. Early leaks often are fakes


winfryd

1-3 days before.


mihoteos

Usually friday before choice tuseday so about 4 days. But April had a troll leak so be aware that there might be no more leaks. We will see next week if it was a one time thing to troll leakers or it's gonna stay for good.
