Question Concerning Steam Log In Changes

[OldeWolfe]

UPDATE:

I just found out that Steam uses authentication servers and that ESO had also switched to this, and as a result, when the Steam Authentication Servers went offline, players could not log in for 4 weeks...so thanks SE and Steam.

So, SE, are we going to get time refunded to account running thru Steam if we can't log in due to Steam Authentication Servers going offline in the future???

Lastly, I also play the same account on my PS4, will that be affected because it is the same service account?

If I had known that this was going to be an issue one day, or that SE Store sold FFXIV as a non steam game, I wouldn't have bought the game from Steam in the first place. All I can do is hope and pray that this won't be the same mess ESO had.

As a result, I am very hesitant to sub for more than a month at a time now.
