still waiting for jagex to make varrock achievement diary completable...
exclusively through the steam platform.

the varrock diary requires you to register your account to complete.
there's no notification on the steam page that this game requires a 3rd party account registration to play.

also the "stronghold of security" is a joke...

You don't need to register for any third-party thing to use an authenticator.

What do you think you need to sign up for to use an authenticator?

what is? let me just draw you back to the relevant points here.

when an OSRS account is created with steam there is no userneame, no password, no email... nothing to hijack other than the steam account.

unless there's a way to activate the "RuneScape Authenticator" without the use of a 3rd party account it requires a 3rd party account.

it's not specified on the store page that this game requires any form of additional registration while it does.

if you're still lost please try to be specific :)
runescape.com is not 3rd party use their services to convert steam id to Jagex id

After that get authentificator extension for browser.

Then follow the instructions on the Jagex website runescape.com to activate 2 factor authentification

for older runescape accounts, even if you registarted your accounts on Jagex website - it still wont let you complete the diary. It require your email linked to your account for authentication.
Doesn't matter if it's steam or old jagex account - this extra authentication requirement locks you from completing content from the game. Additional authentication supposed to be each player own privacy choise. This is forcefull and anti-diplomatic.
