I got the game many years ago through a friend before the game was on Steam and I only played the free month and the account doesn't have Heavensward and Stormblood.
I would like to get back in the game but play through Steam.
I read I could buy the Steam version, not use the registration key, and log in with my existing account (I wonder if that is wrong as, what I read was a pretty old post). However, like I said, my existing account doesn't have the 2 DLCs that the base game comes with when I buy the Steam version.
I thought about cancelling my Square Enix account and making a new account through Steam as it will have the 2 DLCs in the base game where as my current account doesn't have them (as far as I know). When I went through the process of cancelling the Square Enix account, I was warned that, if I wanted to create a new account, I couldn't use the same e-mail address or the account ID.
I would prefer to not use a different e-mail address or ID.
So, if buying the Steam version could upgrade my existing account with the 2 DLC, that would be great. However, if I buy the game and find that can't happen, that would mean I would have wasted money and time. Steam specifically states that the game CANNOT be refunded. I haven't bought the game yet.
Please let me know if what I am asking is possible.
If there are any alternatives to achieve what I am trying to do, if this is a lost cause, please provide your knowledge. Just remember the main goal is to play through Steam. I am willing to adjust, I just want to make sure if I can do these things first.
