Decided to get the game and give up on wow!.. Steam key?

Makta · December 2014

The game is really cheap now for some reason yet steam costs quite a bit more even with the sale. Is there any cheaper site to get a steam key? All the sites i know only gives you a non steam one..

Also i found the explorer pack for cheap but if i get it on steam will i be able to add it? Guessing it will be doable but you never know with steam :P

I don't know of any site that sells steam keys but I can answer the explorers pack question. If you buy the explorers pack its just a code you put into your account after setting it up.

Why do you have to get it on Steam? I have Steam and ESO but they are not tied together and see no downsides to not having it on Steam. I don't know if they track the achievements for ESO through Steam, but that is something I don't care about anyone knowing. In fact, it is one less back ground app running with the game and one less thing to launch. Anyhow....

This is a case of where I would vote with my wallet and get the game from the cheapest source.

And, you want the Explorer Pack which IIRC, allows you to have any race in any Alliance.

There's no real difference between getting on steam and getting the non-steam version.
You can add ESO to your steam library and use the overlay and take screenshots anyway, plus I've heard that when ESO's Steam version launches the launcher is broken.

I'd say get the non-Steam version and the Explorer's Pack.
