Looks like steam users can't connect to server (personally on EU), steam only or...?

    Oh for f... I don't know if it's my logic that's wrong but I'd assume if you sell a game on a particular platform you should be able to make it work.

    Please tell me it's not going to be a repeat of last time…

    Not exactly a steam issue, it's EU login servers of ESO Steam, from what I understood. Seem like they keep Steam and regular login servers seperate

    makes sense, i guess!
    maybe they forgot to update the european steam server side of things.

    This is why Steam reviews of this game are in the gutter. Insert conspiracy theory here.

    One commenter above asks “how is this even possible?” Friend, do not atribute to stupidity that which can be better explained by malice.

    It's a case of ESO being sold on Steam when they clearly can't provide the same quality of service - now Steam if full of rewievs that warn you but if you, like me, bought it before all the mess went down in summer, you had no way of knowing unless you checked old threads on forum before you bought the game.

    Did you forget that Steam takes a percentage of that sale? See my previous comment above.

    It doesn't matter if it does. For all I know it could be taking all the sales - they decided to sell ESO there therefore they should be able to make it work.

    The only way to unlink from steam is to find a second hand ESO CD/DVD install. Once you install that you should be able to update and login to existing account via the game command as well as the launcher. I havn''t seen a copy for sale recently so I can't be certain.

    Okay so I’m not defending ZOS. I don’t know if that fact was lost on you or if you’re being facitious. So I’ll respond by saying you can ..... in one hand and want in another and see which fills faster. Reference that when wondering why your Steam purchase doesn’t work.

    But it appears a ZOS rep responded to the thread, so maybe you all will get resolution. Do not hold breath if previous track record regarding Steam logins is any indicator.
