    Just get it from steam. I'm pretty sure it's the same price.

    Humble Bundle is just a different place through which you can get the game. As far as i know, the only real difference is the initial purchase price, and the fact that with steam, when you download an update, they are only a portion of the entire game's size, whereas on humblebundle, you have to download a full copy of the game to get the updates.

    Steam updates automatically and faster too. I would say that's worth $5/£3.50

    Buying from Steam gives you:
    • A copy of the game on Steam

    Buying from Humble Bundle gives you:

    And both stores gives you the same exact game.
    Why the version from the Steam store is slightly more expensive? Steam things..

    I'd buy through Humble Bundle. It includes a Steam Key aswell, so there's no reason to buy it through Steam when you can have both Non-Steam version and the Steam version for less.

    Isn't the Steam version DRM-free as well?

    Steam is a DRM, so nope.
    DRM-Free is intended when you don't have to use any other service to use something.

    Oh, I see. Game can be run directly, bypassing Steam though. Steam is only strictly necessary for updates.
