File validator on the FFXIV Boot Launcher

[CappyTan]

the game files are just getting larger with each patch and expansion.
Shadowbringers is just around the corner and i would hate to spend the time i paid on my sub to reinstall the whole game again.
Also making a copy of the games install folder is just too data consuming for some if not most.
if there is any corrupt data in a reinstall, i would need to uninstall and reinstall all over again, we really do need a file checker in the launcher if the game size continues to grow.

Only solution to repair the game when its files a corrupted by a virus, a hard drive malfunction or internal issues is to uninstall the whole game then reinstall it which can take up to 15hours or less.

For me with my slow rural internet, it takes around 2 days
But yeah, it would be nice to be able to repair files without having to bog down the internet for long periods of time.

File checkers ain't that useful as you think. I had my BnS install messed with graphics (some buttons won't show here and there, fuzzy images etc) but file checking said everything is ok and no repairs done. At the end I had to delete everything and reinstall to have it all good. Even NC are indie devs, after all!
