Linux Version of FFXIV

[Thorium]

Was just wondering with Linux OS's becomming more popular for gaming thanks to Valve bringing there steam Client to the veriouse linux operating systems out there and the existence of a Mac OS version. Both of these operating systems are unix based code so would it be to much to ask if there are any plans to bring FFXIV to Linux?

I have been playing games on Debian and other Linux OS derivatives for some time now and enjoy the performance boost, the Linux community in general and the lack of hassle of having to install 3rd party apps like DirectX, Microsoft visual C++ and so on.

With the release of branded steam machines more and more games are set to be ported to work with them. Does Square Enix have any plans to port this game to Linux because frankly this is the only game that still ties me to having to use a Microsoft OS.

apologies if this is in the wrong forum section.

Your thoughts would you like to see this game ported to a Linux version?
