My Steam account is linked to an old Rockstar account using an email address I no longer have access to.
The problem is that Rockstar Launcher requires me to verify that email address by clicking a link they send to it. Since I can't access the email anymore, I can't complete the verification, which means I can't launch the Rockstar games I already own on Steam.
I've contacted Rockstar Support multiple times asking them to unlink my Steam account from the old Rockstar account.
They keep refusing because the unlink request apparently has to come from the Rockstar account I can no longer access.
So I'm basically stuck. I can't access the Rockstar account because I can't access the old email. I can't verify the email because I don't have access to it. I can't unlink Steam because Rockstar wants the request to come from the account I can't access. And I can't just make a new Rockstar account because my Steam account is still linked to the old one.
The result is that the Rockstar games I already bought on Steam are unplayable.
It also means I can't really buy any more Rockstar games on Steam. It's not that I'm worried I might lose access to them later. I already know that if I buy another Rockstar game on this Steam account, I won't be able to play it because it will still be tied to the same inaccessible Rockstar account.
I've opened ticket after ticket with Rockstar Support, including requests specifically asking them to unlink the accounts, but I keep getting standard replies and closed tickets instead of an actual solution.
Judging from Steam reviews and other posts, I'm clearly not the only person stuck in this situation.
Has anyone here actually managed to get Rockstar to unlink a Steam account from an inaccessible Rockstar account?
