-No, you have to create a Trion Worlds account

Am i be able to download the game from steam?
-Yes you can

Achievement thing?
-Not via Steam, though the game itself has a ton of them

Does it say "In Non-Steam Game" at the friends panel?
-No, it says you are in Rift if you DL it through the steam client.

Is the "Activate a Product on Steam" works on this one?

Beats me. You have to download the full game client from Trion anyway. Steam doesn't change anything because it's Trion's MMO, so there's no achievements or friends tracking I think. ^_^

Correct me if I'm wrong.

The game cannot be activated on steam.

Here is the list of games you can activate on steam:

You cannot download the game from steam without buying it on steam.

You would have to add this as a non-steam game shortcut.
