Asking for a sprout in NN. They started the free trial on steam, but would like to buy the game through the mogstation. They're concerned about losing like 100hrs of gametime.

Does anyone know if that's possible? I thought free trial accounts aren't locked into any ecosystem yet until you buy the game, but I suppose I might be wrong.

I'm aware that PC and steam versions are incompatible. Does it also apply to free trial? Should I tell them they have to buy it on steam?
