Differences between Battle.net and Steam versions

Own it on Battle.net, wanting to get it through Steam to localize my library. Is there any performance differences between the two, or missing features like DLSS/FrameGen/RTX?

Mostly asking people that have played it extensively on Battle.net before switching to Steam.

You can add non-steam game in library.

If you buy it on Steam, when you launch the game Steam will wake up, look around groggily, then just wave at Battlenet to take over. Your in-game friends list will be the BN one. And the achievements are already on the BN version.

Yeah own both, didnt think Blizzard would sticky this game on Steam. Oh well more money down the rabbit hole. I like hanging out on Steam than i do on Blizzard account, not really interesting on other games they have.

I have it on both. The only downside is you dont have access to PTR on steam but i guess it doesnt really matter because i dont beta test for free.. The only reason why i bought it on steam as well is because battlenet always revert my updated dlss and dlssg to the older version.

Do not disable crossplay even though you dont want to play with console peasants. They treat steam and battlenet as different platform for some reason. I had to solo world boss and then figured something is wrong when legion is empty as well. Luckily soloing world boss is not that long when you play HoTA build.
