Took me a while to figure out that this is for Grounded...

Sometimes I wish Steam would just change their policies to force all games on Steam to make it so any content that requires a 3rd party account would still work if you decide to just use your Steam account. Last time I checked, the MMORPG Dofus didn't require you to use an Ankama account on the Steam version (unless that's changed), so why can't others take that as the cream of the crop example of what to do?

I wish they had implemented this sooner. For a very long while, Microsoft logins were broken on the Deck and only just got fixed a few months ago, if I remember right. Before that, you had to blindly enter your credentials and hope you were clicking the right spots and it was picking up your typed words. It was a mess.

But this is good news to hear. While Sony shoots themselves in the foot by requiring it, Microsoft’s studios’ devs are going the opposite direction. Hope to see more of this.

I wasn’t really sure what the benefit was of having the account linked anyway. Because I was hoping to sync my backyards across devices so I could play on the go, but it didn’t seem to do that when I finally could log into Microsoft successfully.

This has been the one thing from keeping me from getting this game.

I literally bought this game like two weeks ago.

Worth it anyway.
