I’m having trouble getting Final Fantasy XIV to work after the latest update. When I try launching the game through Steam, it just says “Running” but nothing happens. I’ve noticed that quite a few others are having this issue too, and I’m on Linux Mint. Is there a solution out there? I found out that the new launcher isn’t compatible with Linux/Proton. A workaround is to use an alternative launcher called ‘XIVLauncher’. It’s supposed to be easy to set up with just a terminal command. Anyone tried this? Any tips?
1 Answer
I’m able to run the game fine with XIVLauncher. If you’re having issues, it might be worth switching to that. Just make sure you follow the installation instructions correctly!
