    Other than providing an alternative avenue of purchasing the game, I don't know if there is any benefit to getting the game through Steam, or linking the game to your Steam Account. I mean, using Steam to launch the game is just one more app that has to be initialized before you can play.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Just because you don't see why using Steam has many advantages... But many of us use it.

    They probably gave up because game has so many achivements and they don't want to work with Steamworks... But it would be nice if they added it.
    I don't play ESO since 15.06. because Cyrodiil is broken since Summerset (PvE isn't much better, too)...

    The cowardly Wood Elves are best noted for their unwillingness to engage in a face-to-face attack; a Bosmer will strike at you from every side except the front. You won't cross swords with a Bosmer, but you might catch an arrow in the throat. Be wary in forests and jungles, and watch your back.

    Also the fact ZoS does nothing about cheaters and the achievements would have meant nothing as well anyway

    I'd really love to see Steam achievements added too. I love hunting down achievements and it's great to unlock them in-game, but I wish there was a way to see my progress on Steam too. Even if they don't add EVERY one from the game, it would still be nice to get a collection of achievements to go after for our Steam profiles.

    I just happened to do a google search for "ESO steam achievements" which took me to that Steam discussion topic from 2016, here, and a few other forum posts. From reading the discussions, it really seems like it would bring a lot of newer players into the game for the first time, and be a reason for older players to return to the game. So for everyone that thinks that it would be a waste of time for ZOS and that it would do nothing for the game, that isn't true. People love their achievements.

    I'm not giving up hope... it took over 4 years for the Terraria devs to add Steam achievements to their game, and I was so happy when they did.

    Most of us probably have Steam running in the background anyway.

    If they going to add achievements hope they don't include PVP, trials and undaunted ones. That will kill any sense of completion on me but also wanting to continue supporting this game. I believe the current in game achievements are enough (and sadly lots of them I wont be able to complete because of the reasons I mentioned before).

    Yes, unfortunately. It would be so cool if there coming this year to Steam. Would be a very huge motivation to collect more achievements.

    After all those issues lately, that sure sounds funny.

    As long they don't put achievements that require a group effort I am good. Thinking again, maybe the game should stay as is it right now.

    Not really. Buying ESO Plus and crowns (not that i buy crowns anymore tho) via Steam is about %20 cheaper in my country, due to fixed exchange rate.

    But i don't care about Steam achievements at all. I wouldn't even use Steam if it wasn't because of the obvious reasons.

    I'd rather see in-game achievement points being shared across the account.

    Preventing problems with log in through Steam client would be a nice achievement for devs.

    I know that this is an ancient thread, but it most definitely requires a bump even after all these years!

    I even went the extra mile to create a Forum account.

    Steam Achievements are amazing and Achievement hunters are quite the crazy folk who would enjoy hunting for them in this game. I myself am playing this game on Steam, but I lack the motivation to do more, because I have other games with Steam Achievos that boost the serotonin in my smooth Achievement hunter brain.

    So please, after all these years, reconsider adding them onto Steam! The Achievement hunter community will be very thankful!

    Greetings,

    We have closed this topic as it was originally created in January 2018. In many cases, it's better to create a new thread on a topic that you want to discuss as opposed to bumping one that is rather old.

    Thank you for your understanding
