Stop caring about native. It seriously just doesn't matter anymore.
XIV Launcher is the easiest way to get FF XIV running, plus it can link to your phone to almost automatically handle OTP (no typing it in, your phone just sends the code over your local network), but you could also just install the trial inside Steam, should work fine.
Copypasta time. "Did you know that the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV has a free trial, and includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward and Stormblood expansions up to level 70 with no restrictions on playtime? Sign up, and enjoy Eorzea today!"
I got banned two times for playing on Linux with FFXIV
Gaben is also an FF XIV player, and Proton always gets a hotfix like a day after anything breaks (usually it's the launcher).
If bans from playing on Linux (or at least the deck) were common there'd be a lot more info about it like there is for other games. Just don't cheat or use sketchy mods. I've only played on Linux (all AMD tbf, both desktop and steam deck, so the drivers are good) and have never had a problem.
I guess it was implied, but I didn’t use cheats. After a few times playing, I always got banned for whatever reason
I ran savages for over a year before burning out, all on Linux, never banned. YMMV
I loved that character, now I’m mad
Agreed, Proton and other alternatives work great!
