Hello everyone.

today i purchased Heroes of Might and Magic® 5: Bundle, and in the bundle it clearly states that it has both expansions,

"Heroes of Might and Magic® 5 Bundle includes Heroes of Might and Magic® 5 and its two expansions: Tribes of the East and Hammers of Fate."

and in my installation is shows the base game, Heroes 5 and ONE expansion Hammers of fate.

this is misleading advertisement.

Blueshadow89: this is misleading advertisement.
Hammers of Fate is included with the base HoMM5 (separate executable), while Tribes of the East is standalone. They're both there, there's no misleading, only perhaps a lack of clarity.

The problem is that these games are bundled together in an awkward way, where some of them are buried & obscured and very hard to find.

The OP of this thread is not the first person to have this issue. I've had it too, and so have many others in the past as well, and no doubt many more will also have the same issue in the future, until if/when GOG fixes how they are bundled.

Hammers of Fate is it's own Download/Installer - Check here to Download it: https://www.gog.com/account - it shows up in the list as "Heroes of Might and Magic V - Tribes of the East"

Thank you for the link and fast response, i'm downloading as we speak, how on earth does one figure out that it's a separate installation, it isn't even included in the bundle and if i search for it it shows only the heroes 5 bundle. again, thank you so much!

It's nothing out of the ordinary. Standalone expansions were a regular thing in the past, which all but died with the spread of DLCs. Hammers of Fate required the base game (so it is baked in) while Tribes of the East was standalone.

More importantly, you've finished Gothic 3 but not Gothic 2? The OCD part of me is crying...
