Jillian.4502 Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) I'm happy for aNet, but this releae means absolutely nothing to me. I don't have an international credit card, thus I can't easily buy gems to support them further like I would love to, so being able to bring my account to Steam would be a great thing. I started playing before Heart of Thorns was released, so I got A LOT of content I'm not willing to just give up and start from scratch. Glad to know people like me are not even thought of at all. Still love the game tho, and I mean it: I'm happy for them, they deserve everything good they get. It's kind of bittersweet lol Edited August 26, 2022 by Jillian.4502 2 1 1 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kharmin.7683 Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Maybe check this thread as there is a discussion about how to link existing accounts https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/topic/120036-can-you-link-your-existing-account-to-steam-if-you-pay-for-the-game-again/page/2/ 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does not answer my question. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem to indicate that ANet chose to go ahead with their approach to Steam, perhaps due to Steam taking a cut of purchases made via their platform, despite some fraction of the player base preferring otherwise. The two are radically different things. Someone, or a business organization, taking action on one option is in no way an indication that they did not think about other options, or the impact of all of the options, on the customer base and the business as a whole.

Agreed. Making the game available to more players has quite literally nothing to do with pre-existing beyond "now you have more people to play with" Nor is it Anets job to teach people how to go from their launcher into steam. If they want to be nice THAT nice and link it, that's all it would be. Is a kind convenience, its not malice or neglect in anyway to not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confused trolls are here to stay 🙂 discussions are never wrong or bad as long as they are in a good manner 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raizel.8175 Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 What's even the point of this thread? You can simply use PayPal for payment, no? Do people also not understand that migrating to Steam would be bad for ArenaNet as ArenaNet would lose money due to a cut of all payments would go to Steam instead of payments going fully to ArenaNet? 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
