MacOS Catalina - Launcher Can't Run

[GilroyKilroy]

Upgrading an operative system, before checking if all your software inside is ready for it, is always a bad move.

The "poor support" you are referring to, is the one that warned its users even before the o.s. was released (warning issued Oct,2, and o.s. released Oct,7) ? Ok.

True they did but you are assuming people read these messages on a daily basis and noticed it. If they cared it would have been on the launcher weeks before Catalina, not a post here 5 days before. I personally came to research the issue only after I upgraded to Catalina and saw it didn't work. So in order to keep playing I had to create a Mojave partition to boot into just to play FFXIV.

If SE truly wanted to support the Mac they would have been on top of betas and had a working version on day 1. I'm sorry, this is SE's fault, not Apple's.

P.S. It didn't even occur to me FFXIV would be a problem since they did do a 64-bit upgrade a few months ago. I thought that was to have Catalina support.
