I find this whole situation to be completely ridiculous. People should be able to get the physical collectors edition and not have to buy steams copy as well. I don't think it's right limiting people because they chose to buy through Steam. Who's idea was it to make it to where Heavensward wouldn't work without Steam, if you bought ARR through steam? I've seen quite a few ARR players play without steam from just downloading the game from the 14 website.. I don't understand the logic behind this.
