I fear they will never look into it, no they will even make it ridiculous hard, to launch FFXIV with wine. There was a how to for 1.0. They patched it so wine wouldn't be able to launch it. There was a how to for ARR, but now you'd need to first log into windows, get your session ID and launch the game with the session ID whic is way more work than just booting into windows.

ugh. I want a mac client more than anything else on FFXIV ARR =.=
