You MUST have an activated game of DS2 on your Origin in order for Steam to communicate with and to play multiplayer. It appears you dont need the same game key, its been reported you can buy another one on sale for your Origin/EA account and it should all work ok. Of course at that point you can just play thru Origin/EA and not use Steam at all if you want.
The issue is that Steam is selling game keys that do not activate on EA.
