Only this week, you can get Baldur’s Gate I, Baldur’s Gate II and Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous in a special Baldur’s Pathfinder Bundle, with a 62% discount! The offer ends on December 12th, 2 PM UTC, so better hurry up!

Baldur’s Gate, is an iconic adventure RPG series of an impact that shaped the entire genre. Both entries allow us to embark on an incredible adventure, where we customize our hero, recruit a party of brave allies and explore its fantastic universe.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous on the other hand, will satisfy every fan of the genre just as much. Similar to Baldur’s Gate series, this impeccable title lets us create our own hero, make choices, but moreover, pushes the player to face the terror that spread across the land straight from the Abyss!

The bundle contains:
Baldur’s Gate: Enhanced Edition
Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Edition
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Enhanced Edition

Available now on GOG!

It's cheaper for me to simply buy the missing game.

Me to...
I guess many people who are at least a few years here would already have BG1 and 2.
Also, It seems Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous has a lot of wrathy reviews about spyware.
I wonder if the game still has it or was deleted by the publisher.

The game is build with Unity, which has built in Spyware for developers to use. Reading forum this feature had been with the game since the being. :(

From one of the Developers:
First of all, that EULA was there since the release. At some point it stopped appearing before the new players, and could only be viewed in the Licence menu. We brought it back it the lats patch to keep the players informed.
Regarding the third party companies - we make games on Unity, using various plugins we buy from different developers. If we find a bug in their software, we need to be able to provide them data which would allow them to fix it, for example. Some of these plugins also get installed along with the game to make some parts of it work, like the music.
If you have more questions, I will try to answer. If you just bought the game and want a refund because of the EULA, I don't think Steam will deny you.

Stupid question out of misplaced curiosity :

Do these bundles get marked "owned" when you own their components ?

The bundle is a nice idea, but it's still cheaper to wait and get everything on sale even if you own none of them.

Pathfinder: $20 right now. This game is worth getting on it's own if you're interested and don't want to wait for however long it takes for the price to drop further.

Both Baldur's Gate go on sale often and around $5 or less.
BG1 - https://www.gogdb.org/product/1207666353
BG2 - https://www.gogdb.org/product/1207666373

So I'm estimating that even if you don't own any of these games, you can patiently wait for actual sales and get them for about $30 which is less than a $90 bundle.

The $60 ($90?) price tag was a bug, apologies. We've re-applied the discount and it's back to ~$23 now :)

The reapplied sale price is reasonable if someone is interested in all three of these games. :)

In that case the regional pricing is insane. For me the price is €31.19. The equivalent to $23 would be €21.90 though.

Great, another bundle I own each individual part of but the bundle isn't marked as owned. You guys really need to fix the darned catalog for these things. It's making it impossible to navigate sales/etc.

No. It's making the GOG catalog essentially unusable as they add more and more of them. There are regular threads/complaints about it.

Unfortunately another bundle that won't take owned games into account. They don't want previous owners to get an extra discount on the missing game(s), just like today's A Plague Tale bundle. :(
Posted December 06, 2022
If I didn't just spend nearly $700 on PC upgrades, I absolutely would get this because this is a great deal! Really bad timing for me :(
Posted December 06, 2022
Pathfinder: 20
Baldur's Gate: 4.8
Baldur's Gate 2: 4.8
Total: 29.6

Bundle: 31.2

I remember when it was cheaper to buy a bundle than buying its contents separately.

IMHO this bundle (and deal) is strange.

(... and I'm not trying to be obstinate or argumentative)

A relatively new game sans dlc along with two older games that generally see pretty good discounts.

The price is so-so...

... the bundle isn't "complete" (missing dlc / season passes)...

... and there's nothing unique to this particular package.

I'm just not sure what's supposed to attract me to this bundle?

But then GOG seems to be creating bundles lately that just don't seem very enticing other than the slight convenience of buying multiple games at once.

Dunno...
