ESO Steam Version

Recommended Posts

I have ESO via retail at the moment. But I may buy it on Steam so I can connect to the community on Steam through ESO Game hub and broadcast on steam. But my only concern is if I am able to log into my account and continue playing with a steam version of the game? I heard you can from some and from others you cannot. Does anyone know for certain if I can continue my account in the steam version if I bought it?

I just bought ESO on Steam. And it works fine I was able to login into my account I used with my retail version before. But I have a question. I didn't use the game key that came with the Steam version of ESO since I am logging into my original account which uses the retail game key I got before. Could I give the steam key I received to a friend and from there he/she can register that key on the Elder Scrolls website and download the game installer from the website and play the game? Or will this mess up my Steam copy and Ill lose access to it once my friend activates the key. And is this legal because I did get the game retail and I am playing with my retail game key on the steam copy and my friend would be playing the game with the steam key copy?

I made a post on another forum and got some answers. Its isn't legal to give away Game/CD keys to a friend but I do have two game keys which means I can have up to 16 save slots but the downside is if I want DLC for all of my saves I need to buy it twice for each account. Nevertheless It is possible to redeem the Steam and Retail game key and play with both Game Key/Accounts with any copy of ESO including the Steam copy.
