Separating Steam and ESO

LordSylvestrion · January 2018

Here is the deal. I want to separate my Steam and ESO accounts. I do not want my account to be linked with steam and need steam to log into it because on occasion Steam decides to mess up and for instance not find my game and force me to reinstall parts of it even though I can launch it just fine. It may be an issue with my PC but point is that I want my ESO to no longer be dependent on steam and I want to just log into it normally. Is that an option at all, to pull an account out of Steam?

Hah, well I checked there before I posted. It doesn't work. Once i go there I can't send anything as I cannot select my problem and I seen not to be able to do a custom ticket. So yeah, I can't.

Unless there is something I missed.

It tells me to go contact Steam Support but contacting Steam Support takes me nowhere really and not to the thing I'm looking for.

Even if I try to click to report something "other" on Steam it takes me back to the ESO support which takes me absolutely no-where.

You will need to contact ESO customer support for help unlinking Steam and ESO accounts. If you are still having issues starting a ticket through the web assistant please let us know.

I know I have to but I literally can't. .-. There is no sub-category for it what-so-ever either under Steam as a platform or just Windows. Should I just file a thing in with Technical Support? That seems more like something for like ESO running issues not account stuff. And nothing in Account or anywhere else works. .-.

I know it's not really the answer you're looking for, but I just bought another copy of ESO directly from this site and I'm going to try uninstalling ESO and reinstalling it from the software key I got from ESO. I can let you know how it goes if you want.

Just pick another option. One, which is the closest to your problem and wirte this in the ticket to, that tehre is no option for that at their support page.
