Mac OS Client needs to be recompiled for 64 bit environment

[Retrospect]

Apple have been on record to say that apps which are not 64 bit code based will at some point in time (probably with the next full release of OS X) no longer be able to be launched on their machines.

Given that the Mac systems which are needed to run the Mac OS client are all 64 bit based I was rather shocked to see that in my system report that the FFXIV client is not compliant and is therefore at risk of being blocked.

Can this please be fed up the line to the developers in order to ensure that future releases of the Mac OS client are 64 bit based.

Good catch. Nothing really to add here, other than I'm another Mac user that would like this taken care of. I don't want to have to choose between upgrading my os and being able to use the newest Xcode or playing FF14. (Note, FF14 would lose that)

Hello Retrospect, Thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

I will be forwarding this feedback, but we do not know how future OS updates may effect the game.

Thank you for playing Final Fantasy XIV! Hope to see you online.
