Registration is handled within the client itself, so you first have to download and install GW1. They merged the account system a few years ago, so you'll find that your GW2 email is already in use for GW1, so you'll need to use a different one. Once the account is created, you login to your GW2 account, select the game content tab, and link your GW1 account at the bottom, which merges your GW1 account into your GW2 account and causes your GW2 login to now be your GW1 login.

When i download and run the client can i just choose option Add Access Key ?

Would it add gw 1 to my account or not ?

"Add Access Key" is for upgrading an existing GW1 account.

You need to create a GW1 account first in order to tie it to your GW2 account. There are detailed instructions on doing this here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=238445792

So basically i need to use 2nd email address then go here and link the that email so i can use my first email. Idiotic.

Why can i just add the key via website.

Thanks for clarifying this.
