What Sibs said.

Lower left corner of Library page, there is an add game button. Select add non-Steam game. Just add the launcher to that and it should work.

If you want to be able to actually download the client from the Steam servers, you will have to purchase it through Steam.

You can still use the Steam Overlay if you add it through that way. You just can't download it directly through the Steam client.
You should still be able to use all of the Steam Community features though.

Don't, download it from the site. Steam creates a lot of issues.

no i didnt misread, i was pointing out the price reduction incase the reason you werent buying it on steam was because you were too tight to pay another 15 quid.Roll
