Two Steam Installs

etchedpixels · November 2021

Has anyone got a set up where there are two different steam users on the same PC with ESO and can they confirm that the giant great chunk of diskspace used by the game is only installed once ?

With the current offer I can now answer the question myself. Steam identifies that there are two Steam users on the system with the same game and shares pretty much everything installed.. including addons, which may not be ideal for some users.

So it only downloads once and it only takes one set of disk space .. yay

The game is only installed once, unless you've set up the Steam accounts to point to different directories.

Further, if you have non-steam versions, you can use symbolic links to point steam to the already downloaded 250Gb monster, wherever it resides. That's a topic for another thread.
