Gameforge and Steam cross platform login question

    So..I totally lost track of time and I forgot about the betas. I missed both of them lmao..Anyways I see that there's a demo running from yesterday and for a few more days. Im currently downloading that but I got some questions. I read on the info that we can't link our steam and gameforge accounts so that question is answered. However what I'm not sure about is..when I log in with my steam account for SOLO would I be using the steam username or would I be using my gameforge username? I don't know how the interface is for steam so I'm pretty clueless..maybe I just log in automatically? I'm a bit reluctant in downloading 80gigs worth of demo just to erase it and download the gameforge version again. So I was hoping that maybe would it be the case that I can log in with my gameforge account in the steam client? I want to make sure because if I log in with the wrong account I won't be getting my collectors edition or whatever it is.


    Btw Lost Ark is awesome...

    Edited once, last by Tomotomi: NVM I just realized that it says "DEMO" I know that I'll be playing a demo but it didn't click yet. I'll be getting a demo client and not the real client so it doesn't matter. I was irritated thinking that I'd have to download 80ish gigs again and was hoping that I can log in with my gameforge info when the games go live since I'll have it on steam. Apparently that doesn't seem likely to be the case. ().

    For the most part, yes. I kinda figured that would be the case since that was a beta. I didn't even bother downloading that one and just wait for the official release. Thank you Zhirelia.

    Just for future reference to Steam Users:


    On Steam, I followed these instructions from a previous forum thread here -

    Steam reinstall skip


    basically I just removed the " demo" from the game file title and hit install. I had about 50-something-ish GB that didn't need to be re-downloaded, but still had the remaining to download - still, it saved me a great deal of time, since my DL speed is really bad.


    Afterwards, I have 80.5 GB in my Steam SOLO game file.

    It should be pointed out however, that this method might cause problems later down the road. If you got the download speed, I'd still prefer the whole re-download. For whomever this method works, all power to you tho (:
