I take back what I said. It doesn't let you buy the bundle if you own any of the items inside. What kind of bullshit law is that, I don't know. I have never seen a sale in which you are punished for buying products from the same company.

This doesn't happen with all of their bundles. Suspect it's not a conscious decision but a glitch related to a specific game from the BioWare bundle.

You might be right,I can buy get the Bioware bundle only as a gift since I own one item from that,on the other hand I can add the EA Classics mega collection to my carf even though I won three of the game from it

It's not a bug it's just how they setup the bundle there are a variety of types:
  • You can't buy the bundle if you own any of it already.
  • You can buy the bundle without any discounts for what you already own.
  • You can buy the bundle with owned items subtracted from the cost.
  • Who knows maybe there are still bundles which give you extra copies out there like years ago.

That sounds like an error on Steam's end most likely. It's their platform after all.

Why are you guys so insistent it's an error? This has been one of the bundle options since the begining of bundles on steam I've seen many of them like this over the last decade on Steam. Sure it's not as common these days and the publisher could have possibly clicked the wrong box if you want to split hairs but it's not like steam is bugging out.

Edit: You can add the bundle to your cart from the EA take over page https://store.steampowered.com/developer/EA/sale/publisher-sale?tab=4 you get this message in cart:
You already own some of the items in this bundle. This offer is only available when buying all items at the same time.
I think it's working as intended. Unless you can somehow complete a purchase with it in your cart like that.

Metro Last Light giveaway will launch on May 18 on Steam​

Metro Last Light giveaway will launch on May 18 on Steam

The original game will be back on Steam for a limited time.
This is excellent news for people who collect titles that are no longer on Steam or just want some freebies. Metro Last Light has been delisted from Valve's platform for many years, and only a Redux version has been available for purchase. The original game will return soon, but only for a limited time. Best of all, it will be offered for free!
How do we know this? The official Metro - The Game Facebook page shared the information. The Metro: Last Light will soon celebrate its 10th anniversary, and the Complete Edition will be given away from May 18-25, 2023.

The Metro: Last Light Complete Edition comes with the base game and all of the additional content ever released.

From the same person who did the Dread X Collections.

the dread x collections are collections of minigames by a variety of developers, might as well claim dusk is by "the same person who did the dread x collections" too, or sucker for love (which is an expanded version of a game from one of the collections) is "by the same person"

But... Fellowship is the only game in this bundle with mostly negative reviews. Is it really that bad? I remember Overlord 1 and I had a ton of fun with it.

Overlord 1 is great. (Or was when I played it 12 years ago.)

Everything after that is awful and not worth playing even for free. That emphatically includes the Raising Hell expansion to O1.
