I’ve been playing Final Fantasy XIV on my Steam Deck in game mode for almost a year without any issues—no mods or anything. However, starting yesterday, when I enter my password to log in, it looks like the game is about to load but then just takes me back to the main screen on Steam. I don’t think there have been any recent updates, and I was playing just fine the night before. Any help on this would be appreciated!

You’re not alone! It seems that quite a few people are experiencing similar issues. Some believe there might be a change within the API affecting the game. If you can, try forcing the free trial version into XML compatibility mode; it might help the game launch properly.
