12 Worthy Games in Humble Choice August 2020
Well, at least the leading role in Vampyr knows how to show his fangs for Humble Choice August 2020. Although he should probably think about putting them away if he doesn’t want to freak peop–oh wait, nevermind.
I like how whenever Humble Choice throws their bundles of games out there, there’s always at least one game that I recently purchased from Steam. I swear they do that shit on purpose. Not only that, but there are always games I already have and it’s like ugh, why do I buy games all the time?
Do you have that problem, or is it just me?
