How were Steam users logging into the game without logging into Steam first? And why aren't you logged into Steam all the time anyway? It just sits in the background doing nothing until you use it. It barely takes any memory.

It's pretty common for games that have their own launchers. I installed Tree of Savior through Steam but never launched it through Steam for instance. Of course that game was free so there was really no license to bother with.

If you go into the folder where Steam installed the files(Steam->Steamapps->Common->Final Fantasy XIV->Boot) you can click and launch the launcher directly and bypass Steam completely.
