Will this force be yours?
Jedi Knight 2 and Academy still hold up so well today. Consider using the "cheat" that turns on realistic sabers aka one good swing = dismemberment. It's hardly a "cheat" in my book, because it works both ways.
Ever since I played those games with that on, I've been so sad to see it absent from the newer Star Wars games.

Btw; it was also 75% off during Summer Sale for the same package: Lucasarts Jedi Knight Bundle ^^' So not missing much this time around. :)

I'm not interested in it either (already owned all). Only bought it to test out what subid it gives.

lol won't activate for more than half of Earth's population it seems

CDN $5.49
Weird that the Americans can't buy it but Canadians can. I wonder if this is a true regionlock (keys won't activate) or a publisher just blocking certain countries.

It is a 75% sale on this package:
http://store.steampowered.com/sub/2103/
Not really recommended for giveaways. Not just because of the CV, but because essentially the only region you can use to give it away here is Poland.
Granted, you could make a Pole pretty happy with it, most likely.

Dark Forces has been bundled at least twice in the HB Star Wars bundles.

The region lock information is not accurate. You have to check with the subid to see.

As is often the case with BS, they say the bundle will not activate in Germany.... even when that is true only for 1 game. In this case STAR WARS™ - Dark Forces. I've activated games from bundles with this warning without problems, aside from the actually blocked game(s).
BUT this time they could be right and wrong, because this coming with only 1 key might cause all games to not activate.

the package only can't activate in Germany. It will work anywhere else.

even when that is true only for 1 game
Combined keys are considered entirely separate games by Steam's database, and the individual games that compose it don't matter at all.
Think of it as being in the same vein as the difference between an Enhanced/Remake version of a game and its original- both will have separate entries, despite technically being the same game.
For this package, it looks like being restricted from Germany is the default, as its entry has both German purchasing and cross-region trading disabled, meaning it'd be impossible to purchase or activate in Germany.
That said, this appears to be a special version of the package, given that it has a slew of additional regional purchase restrictions listed- which likely means it's this entry, instead- though that one, unfortunately, doesn't seem to properly list its region-locking on SteamDB.

To put this simple, Bundle Stars almost always have the wrong region lock information.
https://www.steamgifts.com/go/comment/Pq0uWa1 <-- It only can't activate in Germany, regardless of what Bundle Stars' page says. You may update it now.
The region lock for a key depends on the AllowPurchaseFromRestrictedCountries
and PurchaseRestrictedCountries
attributes in the subid.
Personally speaking, I can get region-free Metro 2033/Last Light keys despite Bundle Stars' store page claims it only activates in EU. I have made several giveaways using those keys, several winners outside the EU and have no problem activating them.

I'm not surprised tbh. But idk. Even on their steam announcement they say "Please note that these deals are not available in the US." - link
I just don't want to make hundreds of people thinking they can purchase and activate it, and then they can't. Don't want to take responsibilities for it.
I'll make a note in OP though to your comments!

"Please note that these deals are not available in the US."
Contrary to their statement, I am able to buy it from the U.S. and the key works worldwide. I am confident about this because the same subid is used worldwide for the store page and all regions mentioned above except Germany can purchase it from Steam.
Also note the wording:
these deals
The page includes not only the Star Wars deal, but also Dishonored 2 10% off. When visiting from the U.S, the region lock information says it's not locked from USA.
So the one posts the announcement hasn't done enough research before publishing it.

I really want some star wars games but these look unplayable to me. Not risking €5 on this.

This package can NOT be purchased in specified countries:
Germany
The key will work anywhere else in the world.

This game is not available in Germany: STAR WARS™ - Dark Forces (sub for individual game also has region lock, though it will not do anything if it's a Steam gift)
The package contains this game, and the publisher simply locked it out from Germany.

Thanks to Dark Forces 1 probably. Yet I've bought it as single key from the HB store once, and it activated fine. Is the region-lock even confirmed?
Comment has been collapsed.
Description says Region-locked game -This Product will NOT activate in the following regions:
Bahrain, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Israel, Japan, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Malaysia, Maldives, Mongolia, Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkey, Turkmenistan, United Arab Emirates, United States, United States Minor Outlying Islands, Uzbekistan, Viet Nam, Yemen, Germany.
I don´t know if it includes every game or just one or a few. anyway it´s to risky.
Comment has been collapsed.
played these all back when they were new. don't really need them on steam
Comment has been collapsed.
have all the games from it, pass
although it is a good deal anyway.
Keep in mind though that the steam version of Dark Forces 2 doesnt play nice with modern systems out of the box and some tweaking may be needed to make it playable.
might be the same case for Mysteries of the Sith as well.
