"Get games to stream (Drawful 2, Choice Chamber), software to stream 'em with (XSplit Premium, Hotspot Shield), and tools to make it all more fun (FaceRig, Monstercat Twitch License, and more)!"
late to the party today.....interested for the VPN. Wondering with the above message.....can it be set on a router? (not that I have a decent router currently tho - VM superdud). I know it says custom router configs are unsupported but thats different to saying it won't work and would get around peoples problem for android boxes etc

Drawful 2 is brilliant, I'd highly recommend it.

I had been hoping for an interesting selection of games (as there's no second bundle currently) from today's bundle, rather than a mixture of utils and games. That said, Quiplash and Choice Chamber at tier 1 seem possibly ok for multiplayer.
I wouldn't bother with any VPN provider that won't provide .ovpn files. Why should you have to use their (often) clunky applications when there's plenty of better ways to do it. Also with linux (slowly) gaining some desktop market share I'm surprised they don't support it at all. Even my previous provider VPN Unlimited had a linux client and were also happy to provide .ovpn files on request, and they are far from being one of the big players.

Hahaha, was considering the top tier just for the VPN but glad I didn't bother now. That's awful! I'm still using the Cyberghost sub from a previous Humble Bundle. Hope it comes around again. OVPN support so you can install it straight on your router. Only wish I'd bought more than one :disappointed:
Also, the pro version of FaceRig seems to be exactly the same as the classic version, so don't let that sway you. They say you need the pro version if you wanna profit from it (in YouTube videos and that) - but how would they know? And what are they gonna do about it?

If your subscription has long enough left, I'd recommend waiting for black friday. Most of the major VPN providers have massive reductions (50%+) from the like of PIA, AirVPN, BlackVPN, which are all pretty highly rated I believe.

I've already gotten tier 2 so tier 3 wouldn't be too pricey for me to go up to.
Anyone know if Hotspot Elite actually allows access to USA Netflix, or if it's blocked? Their website makes it sound like it's a specific feature of Elite, but I'm not sure I trust that. I'd be using my PC and perhaps Android tablet.
(I'm also partially interested in Magix Fastcut. It looks quite basic but might be worth it as it auto-creates videos based on templates. There's a few videos of amateur games I've made that I'll never get around to editing manually into trailers but which would be worth having a mediocre auto-edited version of). :smiley:
