I used to always use the Steam Client with the Windows Account to track my hours, now I have to resort back to using the normal client because it seems SE doesn't want us to have the freedom to choose which launchers we use. Even though we bought it with money, yes I know there are multiple reasons why: To try and stop exploiting and to prevent harm to players. But they originally stated that this would only affect STEAM accounts. This shouldn't be affecting Windows accounts as well! If we make enough noise, hopefully SE will fix this or roll it back until they can implement a fix that benefits everyone! I worked hard to get FFXIV up to the top of my hours list on Steam, and I want to continue that! I love this game a lot and I don't see a point in locking Windows users out of FFXIV Steam Client! I talk to all my friends over steam normally, so having the steam overlay was perfect for me!


Please fix this SE! Listen to what some of your community wants!
