Epic and steam cross save

[Wolfram]

So, back when the 30th anniversary pack was free on epic, I got it there, but I just installed D2 (in addition to steam which I usually use) on epic, hoping to get access to it's content as well.
Now, it seems that I can play that content on steam was well, after launching from epic just once. But on the crosssave page it does not say I own it and when for the gjallarhorn quest talking to shawn han, there is nothing happening there (on steam, that is) and I cannot enter the dungeon.
Is there anything one can do to get access to all that content (and all I bought via steam)?

edit: Now the crosssave page says that I own 30th pack on epic, and the DLCs on steam. Does that mean I can only play D2 accessing either or, depending on where I start the game from?

edit 2: Apparently I own all the seasons on both platforms though?

Final edit: Yes. It depends on where I start it from. Good customer service that is, bungie /s

You seem to have confused yourself. DLC content is tied to a specific platform or launcher, while seasons and dungeon keys are available everywhere. So, if you have 30 anniversaty activated in EGS, then the dungeon you can run only through EGS. If you bought the WItch Queen Deluxe in Steam, then the Witch Queen content is only available in Steam. Seasons and Dungeon key is not affected, probably because it is bought with silver and somehow tied to your general Bungie account, I do not know.

Guess that is about right. I will get gjallarhorn on epic then, and use it with the right and proper launcher, aka steam.
Still kinda ♥♥♥♥♥♥ to say "wanna play on a different platform? Oh, you already got content there? Well, this is what you gotta buy in order to get the experience you used to have!" Especially, when switching from PC to console or reverse.

Well, that's the way it works almost everywhere. When I bought God of War on PS4, I didn't get a copy of it on PC, did I?

Does it have crosssave? Hell, does it pride itself on having crosssave? Was it presented as a great change?

Never advertised that for GoW lol

And honestly what Bungie does is pretty novel in the space of gaming. And if you caught the specific window, when they migrated away from Battle.net and transfered to steam, you could get every last bit (even going from console to PC!) that you had already purchased. Only caveat was that it was for a year only. Which was what...two years (or three?) ago now

But staying on topic, Bungie has been pretty open about the "DLC is platform specific" and yes, Epic and Steam are different platforms (I don't know the nuts and bolts of it, but considering how Epic is treating the PC userbase...I think Epic may have more to do with it than Steam...my guess is if Epic played nice with everyone, DLC compatibility would probably work cross-platform on PC)

People are calling it a decision though, or Bungie's decision, like it was ever something serious that people sat down and made a decision on. But it's not even a serious suggestion is what we're saying, Bungie got the platforms to agree to cross-save, but why would they ever agree to honour a license purchase made on someone else's platform? It almost surely wasn't even suggested in the discussion.

What does Sony, or Epic get out of giving free DLC to people who bought it elsewhere, including the PC grey market (which, if this system was even in place, a whole lot more people would be doing, etc). If Bungie told them they have to, they'd have got laughed at. It's all down to the platforms wanting their own cut, and exactly the same reason as why any other game purchase doesn't entitle you to a free copy on any other platform the game may be on.
