    Hi,
    My husband and I have our own windows profile. He was the first to play, so he installed the game and used the authentication key on his battlenet account. If I want to play on my profile, do I need to buy a second copy of the game - in order to have my own battlenet account ? We dont want to play at the same time together in a game - just play the campaign separately.
    Besides using his battlenet account, is there another way to have my own Battlenet account ?

    Thanks in advance for any insight on this issue

    You will indeed have to buy another copy, I know it's a bummer.

    Basically each game is tied to your Battlenet account.

    Have you tried launching the game on your Windows profile?

    If all you're concerned about is playing the campaign, you can simply play as a guest.
