I'm not totally sure what you're asking.
The Humble deal has four parts:
Direct (or torrent) download the DRM-free version of Outlast
Direct (or torrent) download the DRM-free version of Outlast:Whistleblower
Redeem the steam key for Outlast
Redeem the steam key for Outlast: Whistleblower
You can redeem any part, or all of it.
In your case, ignore the steam keys and download the dlc, if that's all you want/need.

Do I have this backwards?
I thought DRM was a method of distribution control, (e.g. steam keys).
I haven't tried to install the direct-download files, so I assumed they weren't controlled & could be freely distributed without them being bound to one computer or user.
Fix my understanding if I'm off-base on this.

I guess the way I worded it was kinda hazy. Sorry.-
Just to be clear: The direct downloads of the game and/or dlc from Humble are not tied in any way to steam or steam keys. Redeeming the steam keys is optional. (or you can do both methods i suppose, if you want the game on your comp in two locations)

yay! another game I can spend hundreds of hours on while ignoring the rest of the games in my meek library.
I still have the original game disk stashed in one of my dust covered cd cases.

Codemasters have a BIG weekend sale right now. They make the best racing games in the industry, so it's worth checking it out!
It's a shame that I've played most of their games already.

III is okay if you want to learn the semantics of a civilization game, but it has some quirks - like being able to move game pieces all the way across a continent in one move on railroads.
I found IV a bit better with its mechanics, and it had more political options with diplomats and spies.
But be warned that you probably aren't going to like it unless you enjoy turn-based strategy games.

Also, I just realized that a game in which you ran for President would make an amazing turn-based RPG. The battles would be debates.

Also, A.D. 2044 includes two free games (albeit in Polish), and Stronghold includes a minigame called "Super Castle Attack" and Classic Stronghold for Mac AND Windows, so technically you're getting at least SIX games for free. Good stuff all around!

Also, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is free to play for a couple of hours yet, with the game being 75% off up to tomorrow.
Tried it out myself, but even with the "low" preset and frame rate over a 100 there's a nauseating sort of input lag present that I can't get rid of, so no deal.

I've never heard of 66% being almost free But this is the deepest discount the game has has had on PC so far I think.

At 6.79, definitely worth grabbing if you don't have it yet.
