I don't think we are getting a fix... ever.

Is there anything we could do legally speaking? Insisting in a refund or forcing them to make an official statement at least?
Do you guys know if the media was catching this up? I could not find this issue as an article in any online magazines, but only as complaints wrapped up in threads. I doubt that there are only 20 people in total who play the Mac version.

Maybe start being louder on social media? Or contacting streamers to see if any would be interested in a story?

I really don't normally like doing things like that, but at this point what other choices do we have? We've been patient, submitted tickets and written here and nothing has worked. Feels like louder voices are needed at this point.

They've put up an update regarding this.

I am so pleased they did an update notice with a bit of hope and a timeline.

The previous "we really don't know" notice was almost old enough to be getting ready for Kindergarten.

So, thank you SE, it's good to see you are finally making progress.

Also, the third-party program has viruses or sth so I am not gonna use it definitely.
I have tried these kinds of programs for other software and games before. Those viruses may not really be extremely harmful to ur Mac, but I am sure they will somehow slow down ur Mac...

The ignorance of Mac users is absurd lol. There is no virus on XIV on Mac. Go do some research before spewing nonsense.

Unfort they still havent updated anything on their launcher. All this update does is fix python. Square needs to give us full vulcan or metal support and not a translated heap of..

While a Metal version would be great, I'm quite satisfied with the performance using "XIV on Mac" for the time being.

Got to laugh that they announce they will start supporting macOS Monterey "soon" when the next version is going to be announced by Apple in a few hours and released in a few months!
