Yeah, turns out since i'm legacy, i should never have even bought ARR on Steam, as i cant have 2 Windows versions of the game registered, so i had to cancel my preorder on Steam and purchase the digital PC version (on Amazon) and i just hope i get my preorder code before early access starts.

I think i'll still be able to use the Steam launcher, as I dont think it is any different from the normal windows one, but it isnt directly linked to Steam. I just wish i would have known that when i spent $30 or $40 on ARR back in 2014 on Steam.
