I don't see a specific thread on it, and I do see people posting about non-steam login issues, but...

The dreaded steam connected accounts issue is back and the team needs to be aware to address this quickly so this gets addressed before prime time since they have to contact Steam to get this fixed.

Really, I wish we could disconnect our accounts from Steam. I didn't buy it from steam but made the mistake of buying crowns off steam once and had to connect my account to get them (since I couldn't refund them) and honestly I'd pay to transfer my account off steam now.

    If you didnt buy eso on steam then you arent limited to steam /shrug you just are connected to it and can use both logins. And eso is literally not working now for nonsteam as you pointed out so whats the point of this thread.

    Not true.

    Its connected in a way that I can't run it even using the EXE without steam. This changed somewhere around when I bought it at Dark Brotherhood and when I connected it around One Tamriel.

    My main account is connected to Steam and I can still manually log in by running the executeable.

    It depends when you bought eso. I can't remember the date, but basically if you bought eso before then and then tied it to steam (like I did) then you can use the normal launcher exe if steam ever breaks.

    Steam has had problems this afternoon, fortunately i was already logged into the steam game i was playing (not ESO) but plenty of other players could not get in.
