Steam pre-reg codes not cross-compatable with Windows version registration

[Violyre]

Euhm... not to play the devil's advocate, but they have said / it's been well-known for quite a while that Steam and non-Steam are not cross-compatible. Not since 1.0, of course, but yeah, since we have a Steam version, sure.

I agree that doesn't make it any less frustrating and annoying, but it's not a new thing.

Wasn't aware of the Steam and non-Steam, I knew about the console differences. Still, it's a pretty big hurt for people who weren't able to use Steam to get it, whether a transfer from Legacy or maybe adding it to other regions later.
