Yeah additional info:
Now the definitive, newly enhanced versions of DOOM + DOOM II are available in a single combined release on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, in addition to PC platforms and Game Pass (subscription required). This definitive enhanced version is our biggest effort yet with online cross-platform Deathmatch and Co-op for up to 16 players, community-published single-player mod support (with in-game mod browser), optimized renderer, accessibility options, optional modern IDKFA soundtrack by Andrew Hulshult (including brand-new DOOM II recordings) selectable alongside the original MIDI soundtracks, presented in up to 120hz in 4K on supported platforms (see FAQ below for details) and a brand-new episode “Legacy of Rust,” with new weapons and demons made in collaboration by individuals from id Software, Nightdive Studios and MachineGames.
Note: Existing owners of DOOM (1993) and / or DOOM II on any of the above platforms receive a free upgrade to the new combined game, and can still access their previously owned versions. (See FAQ below for details.)
Owners Receive
DOOM
DOOM II
Master Levels for DOOM II

Legacy of Rust (a new episode created in collaboration by individuals from id Software, Nightdive Studios and MachineGames)

funny DOOM + DOOM II is already in your Steam library but also on wishlist
Comment has been collapsed.
Steam's screwed up a bit, from what I can see.
What apparently happened was that DOOM II was appended to the original DOOM game (and apparently enhanced it?), and effectively DOOM II was delisted from its original page. So, if you're like me and only own DOOM II but still wishlisted the first DOOM, that is where you have both.
Interestingly, my license page was not updated to reflect the addition of this package, which is a bit much to think about now.

Last sale I was planning to buy Doom 1 but I ended up not doing so because of... reasons (pretty sure I just forgot), and now they increased the price of it. Someday I'm gonna learn to just buy these old games instead of leaving them for later and missing on the low prices.

Weird. They changed DOOM I to DOOM I + DOOM II? Because I'm pretty sure I already had the first DOOM and I can't find it now on my library.

Yes, the merged the first two games in a "new" one with all the things they added

Ah, so I didn't really get anything extra. Kind of redundant in my position, but cool.
Also, bonus: I found out GFN also added this to their platform. Mobile version is also accessible. Cloud saving works, but is iffy as it appears to work one way (which may or may not be a bad thing). Basically, one doesn't have to install it on their system unless they want to. But if you do decide to install it later, essentially your progress from GFN will trickle down to your hard copy.
And just to be extra, I added DOOM to my Windows XP machine for that whole orginal, offline experience, but only the original one used through the Beta branch works. None of the re-release stuff. I did run into a snag somehow in that the DOOM + DOOM II package itself would briefly fire up the DOS launcher (as with the main game itself), but they apparently exit out quickly. I think I know what is causing it, but I was too tired last night to find a workaround to fix that pesky behavior. I'm satisfied with the fact I still got the original DOOM to work anyway and now I have both games. Eventually I can try again to get the extra maps. Still, freaking sweet overall.
EDIT: I just fixed that now, wiping my original work with the one that is fixed. Took a while for it all to come back to me with programming the batch file launchers I made back in the day. Now I have access to the DOOM standalone AND the DOS Launcher version. What came with the install they used for dosbox seemed to be the 64bit version, which I replaced with the one I used for DOOM II. Since that's all set up, all I need now is to get the shortcut icons I need. I only have the DOOM + DOOM II one that I'm using for the DOS launcher. Now I'm pumped!

Well the bundle is just in-game rewards for those games listed above.
2023 + Fallout 76 = 2024

They are talking about the Free Bundle on Bethesda site, not the Steam items from Bethesda Stream.
Comment has been collapsed.
where?
I tried the https://freebundle.bethesda.net/en-US in browser
but still getting:
"500
Something went wrong. Please try again later"
Comment has been collapsed.
I was redirected to https://freebundle.bethesda.net/de-DE. It might help to try CTRL+F5 to circumvent the browser cache. Or try another browser.
Edit: seems to be gone again. Keep trying. I was able to claim it right before I posted it's back.

IIRC, that's the same promotion as mentioned above, not really a quest. You just had to have signed up to the newsletter.

I own and have played several such Bethesda games. Arena, Daggerfall, TESO, Morrowind, Redguard, Arx Fatalis, etc.
"Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't"...what game company HASN'T had to scramble to patch a game time to time, or left them to be bugged? This is why your gaming "meme" falls flat.

Stupidly, I clicked the link, though I know I have claimed it before. According to my transaction history, clicking that re-claimed the same stuff I already claimed, they just refreshed the claim date to today (September 1st).
Ideally, according to this, this should have ended, which probably explains the 500 error and they have loose ends: https://gamerant.com/bethesda-freebies-free-item-bundle-fallout-76-doom-eternal-wolfenstein/
If that shows up in your transaction history, then theoretically there is nothing else special that you need to do. You should already have it. I know there was nothing else to it.

nope, dont have it I guess
I have only these:
Deathloop Exclusive Skin and Weapon

Comment has been collapsed.
That's correct, just need to wait for today Day 2 stream to start, around 20:00 UTC.
Same rewards.
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah, I hate negotiating time zones (and yes, am in Melbourne). Missed the window anyway, forgot I was supposed to be having a blood test - slept in a bit, set off, sat in the waiting room for a bit, back home to finally eat and drink something, then laundry - forgot about the broadcast. Saturday is for real life, lol.

Sorry to hear that, tmr seems to be last day, it'll start in 15 hours 10 min from this msg post time.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, the stream should be up for 3 days, at least from what they have scheduled.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm... well it's first time given this year.
Maybe try on Steam Client to see if it shows up or not later during stream.
Comment has been collapsed.
I didn't get it either. Could be a browser issue (I use Brave). I'll try the client next time.
Comment has been collapsed.
To be honest idk if addons/extensions affect it or not.
At least from usual issues, uBlock or any adblock or similar tools seem to be messing with it somehow, so better if client since there's none of those addons around to see if you can get it or not.
