Would you like to un-link your Eso-Account from Steam ?

    somehow my account unlinked from Steam. I have purchase history, gameplay timer (stuck on 126 hours, while now i have about 2 years of play). I can't launch the game from Steam, only from eso.exe or ESO launcher.

    I don´t play over Steam
    I am so grateful that I'm one of the few ESO players who is not playing through Steam. This incident is just one of many reasons why. I hate Steam anyways, I never really understood the draw other than to have all your games through one platform.

    No need.

    Since my ESO account was a regular PC account before it was linked to Steam, I can play through the regular launcher.

    I also have all the DLC/Chapters purchased for my ESO account, not through Steam. So I maintain access no matter which launcher I use.

    Finally, I sub through ZOS, not through Steam. That way I keep access to my sub when Steam goes down.

    I basically only play through Steam for social reasons, but it's no sweat off me when it goes down.

    Me too :smiley: I bought a second copy from steam during a sale.

    Sure, haven´t you seen the red banner above?
    If I didn't lose my progress or anything and didn't have to rebuy anything... very much YES! I would unlink it. I don't entirely blame Steam for the issue, if their servers failed to verify your login, you wouldn't see a time out error, it would be a different error. I'd more point my finger more toward Zenimax on that part. However, there is a clear issue between the servers working/communicating with each other it seems, and if that could be avoided, be it whoever's fault, then yes I would gladly do so.

    Yes, i see it also as a communication Problem between ZOS and Valve.
