Getting an Error at launcher bootup

[Grespar]

I just refreshed the launcher by clicking on (config) and (home) a few times and I was able to login.
Didn’t need to uninstall the game.

A few hours ago was normal, but now i'm getting the error on the laucher.
I use the steam version

Summer sales overloaded steam. Technically you can try to login with spamming the cogwheel until it shows something otherwise you'll have to wait it out.

It isn't a problem on your end.

Edit:

Spam the cogwheel in the upper right of the launcher, then hit the back arrow to go back to login. Repeat this process until you get the login field.

This is almost certainly due to an outage in Steam. See: https://steamstat.us/ Steam Web API is down, and I'm sure that's how SE is validating our licenses are real. I suspect this will continue until Steam Web API is back up.

Updated my prior post. It isn't a user problem, just do what I posted in bold until steam calms down.

I just got in after about 15 mins of trying.

As stated before, you don’t have to quit and reload the launcher, you can keep refreshing it by clicking the cog on the right, and then clicking Home. Repeat till login appears.

Also to avoid this happening again today, I might have to find a place to afk while I’m away instead of logging out. It’s going to be wild come evening prime time.

Yup that’s what I did
