In the German forum, someone was not able to buy the bundle after linking accounts due to already owning one of the games. Humble FAQ suggests to first buy the bundle and then link accounts.

I had my account linked before and I had no problem with buying this bundle.

I don't remember everything from this thread, but did you previously own any of the games?

That was me. I already posted in the other thread:
https://www.gog.com/forum/general/humble_bundle_gog_sale/post12

I own 1 out of 7 games but I get an error message when I try to buy the bundle.
There is a support article on Humblebundle concerning this.
Happy Holidays with GOG RPGs Bundle "Already Owned" Error

TLDR: If you haven't linked your GOG account yet, then don't. Buy the bundle first.

My stubbornness was humbled by the love of Humble Bundle : D

I asked them for unlinking accounts, a system-needed ticket, I filled the ticket unpatiently, thinking maybe no one was there but no, real people there, with hearts...

the account was unlinked within less than 48 hours, I feel a bit detached now : )

Seriously... Thank you so much for the wonderful atmosphere of this Charity Humble Bundle with GOG...

Good news! I have unlinked your GOG account. You can find steps to re-link your GOG and Humble bundle accounts in the following help article:

Thank You, Alex! I will not unlink on the very next occasion. Have a lovely time this Christmas! More Bundles with GOG's games in the future, please.

yeah, two games (Vampyr and Kingdom Come) plus Wasteland 3 but not Colorado Collection.

No problems with my purchase, I wasn't able to redeem Vampyr and Kingdom Come as it was said that I already have them.

ssling: I changed password, more than once probably, after linking and it still says so. Though to really be sure, I'd have to buy this bundle and see if activation will work. Interesting question actually, how it is resolved. Maybe it generated some "token" which is independent from login credentials?
I bring news, i've purchased the bundle and when i've tried to claim the games Humble bundle said that my linking account to argamasa had expired. It was when Seven giveaway. So hb redirected me to gog to introduce my password and then return to the hb page and now yes, i 've been able to claim all the games (i had no one).

Dang wish you got gift codes for the games you already own. I'll probably still get it though.

Hello,

Can anyone who has bought the bundle after unlinking his GOG account tell me if there is an expiration date on the non-redeemed games?

Regards.

I haven't unlinked my account since it had to be relinked by me for some unknown reason.

I already have 3 of the 7 games. It is not mentioned anywhere that the unlinked games will expire at some point. I remember them doing that to Giveaways though.

Regards

BreOl72: You're not really asking why GOG handles things inconsistently, are you? ;)

How is this different from that?

PixelBoy: Well, I guess this specific case is a new feature that I haven't seen before. I suppose it can be counted as one more inconsistent thing.

I was trying to find out how much additional purchases this bundle will cause for those who want to get complete editions of everything.

Unless I missed or misunderstood something, it's like this:

Kingdom Come Deliverance: 13 DLCs, 5 of them free
Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales: 1 DLC, free
ELEX: 1 DLC
Vampyr: 1 DLC
Wasteland 3: Colorado Collection: 1 DLC
GreedFall – Gold Edition: 1 DLC
Darksiders III Deluxe Edition: complete, no additional purchases needed.

So while the bundle is a great deal, you get only one truly complete edition. To get them all completed, you need to get 18 DLCs after that. It is a bit shady, but of course that's how the game business is these days.

Not counting that GreedFall thing, Wasteland 3 is actually the most confusing case.
The gamecard says: "The entire Wasteland 3 experience in one colossal collection."
But to get "the entire experience" in addition to "Colorado Collection" you also need to buy "Digital Deluxe Edition" to get stuff like... manual?!
I think charging extra for a digital manual is a bit much. Of course with the bundle price + holiday sale it's affordable, but doesn't feel right.
Aimed at us KCD base-game owners on GOG here.

Would buying KCD Royal Upgrade here on GOG net us all the missing DLC's that aren't in the KCD Base-Game?

high rated
The bundle has now surpassed fhe 10k sales. Hope Hb and gog make more bundles in the future. And if we don't want linking accounts, keys with a limit time for redeem is a possible solution.
