<p>Still awaiting a response from steam so i'll ask my question here aswell.  Since EQ2 has been introduced to Steam, will it be possible for older EQ2 users to link their accounts to our STEAM accounts?</p><p>TLDR: Have the game already, wanting to use it through Steam instead of the station launcher.  I've found it easier to just have all my games and accounts linked under 1 "profile".</p>

<p>So I am correction in believing that I must give my credit card information before I recieve the free 30 days after purchasing downloading the game from steam? Will it also work if I go out and buy a time card or must I have a credit card on the account?</p>

[TSR-JamesM]

<p>Yes, the 30 day fre trial is activated by a completed subscription. This requires a credit card. You will NOT be chaged for the first 30 days.</p>

<p>I am sorry that I negelcted to mention that a game card will work as well.</p>

<p>Is the steam purchase considered a "Digital download" that grants the free gift for buying The Shadow Odyssey?  Cause i recently bought it through steam and did NOT receive the Dire Bear Mount or the Void beast house item <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>
