ESO Steam Transfer

Goratesque · May 2015

Greetings,

Many of us pre-ordered the game. Before it was on Steam. I pre-ordered the game. And you put the game on Steam on July. And you didn't gave us an option to transfer our games to Steam. But you gave us an option to transfer our games from PC to consoles. Now, I see an unjustness there. I think there should be an option where normal game owners can transfer their games to Steam. This should be for free in my opinion. But if Valve is not accepting this, both sides can win with the payment option.

We want this ZOS.

Edit: Non-Steam is not a solution. LameoveR got a point even if he's being sarcastic. Here are my reasons:
-I live in Europe from Istanbul, Turkey. And in my country everything is way more expensive than it's suppossed to be about gaming. But Steam is cool. And Crown Packs at Steam shop are at normal price.
-I'm not gonna able to buy DLC, Expansion Packs etc. in the future from Steam. Again, normal price thing.
-Do I have the game? Steam says "Buy!" everytime.
-And because of that I won't join the ESO Steam Community.
-I'll never share my wonderful screenshots.
-I won't reach the in-game guides nor write one.
-I won't able use to if AddOn system added to Steam Workshop in the future.
-Maybe they'll add Steam achievements like Skyrim in the future, I won't get 'em.
-Does Steam records that how much time spend in-game? No. If I play the game for 1.000 hours, if they transfer one day it'll say 0 hours. It seems unimportant but beats me.
-I won't drop collection cards and other things.
-I still can craft badge, but I don't have the game according to Steam.
-It says "non-Steam" like pirated. Seems miserable and not good.

There are tons of more goods and features of Steam that I can't count. But I can't reach any of them. I'm waiting this for almost a year.

Adding the game non-Steam is just a solution for interface but it's not a real solution! Now, will you support me? Or was pre-ordering the game wrong? Will ZOS going to help their old adventurers?

Safe travels!

What would be the point of transfering to Steam?

Goratesque · May 2015

Because I don't want to buy it again on Steam. That's the point.

If you want support for this idea, you need to give some reasons other than, 'i dont want to buy it again on steam'

Why would you buy it again on steam? You already have it for your PC so....?

You do realize that you can add a non steam game to steam yes? Problem solved!

He won't join a community to post a comments, won't share his wonderful screenshots, won't share his achievements(is there is any achievements in steam version?).
Do you realize, that "add non steam game" is not a solution at all!? DO YOU?!
No, you don't!

If you'll buy it on steam, you'll need to make a new eso account

Okay, I was not being rude or mean in any manner. So for you to come at me like that is completely uncalled for. Get over yourself.

Hm. I need to post a /sarcasm sometimes. My bad. Sorry.
My post fixed!

No you don't. You do if you actually want to play the account that came with it, but you can just login with your non-steam account to the steam client.

It should have been your first post in this thread, not nineth.
I myself don't need all this steam stuff, but i understand your feelings, and i'd be grateful for ESO Steam Transfer.

Goratesque · May 2015

I changed the first post. Thanks for your support.

All pre-ordered players feels that, not only me. There are tons of people who pre-ordered. I never thought that ESO will come to the Steam. And I think if they will do that, they can transfer us. Because it's pre-order, they must be very thankful for us. But who knows that they will split us as non-Steam and Steam user.This is wrong. That's why I want this since they put the game on Steam.

They said the Tamriel Unlimited is a chance for the old pre-ordered players to come back. If they will do the transfer thing, many of us will come back. I know it's true.

For me, I grabbed ESO on sale on Steam, but I am still using beta account. (I log in with my beta account on the steam version of the game.) All the DLCs and other items are link to the account, not where the account ran from. (ESO web site, steam, or other store(s)).
