Is downloading the game again required even though you already have it downloaded from Battle.net?

Title. 30 GBs aren't much but it would still save some time and memory.

No. You can either keep it on battle.net or you can download it here. Ether way you'll get the update, I prefer steam so I deleted the game on battle.net.

Seems so. It preloads into the steamapps folder.
Edit: don't pre-load, it doesn't work.

That's unfortunate :/ Aight ty

Preloading works fine, the game is just stored in Steam\steamapps\depotcache until the game releases.

My face when I uninstalled the game cause I thought it didn't work. Thanks for the heads up

You could try to start the install to create the directory, move your files over, then verify the files, but I'm not guaranteeing it will work. I tried with an origin game once and don't remember the results.
