why does steam tell me to install service everytime

Launch the Game and enter your credentials/OTP.Hit Okay and Uncheck use Steam Service Account.You will get an error that the Account isn't Eligible to play the Game'.Using the FFXIV Launcher Select 'Use Steam Service Account' and Attempt Login.Ensure your SteamEdit has removed -issteam from the launch argument.Now, I have found a way to play the game using the FFXIV Launcher + Native Steam Integration using a Square Enix Windows Account but it's annoying to do it every time you launch the game. You can use the FFXIV Launcher without the Steam Service Account from the steam install directory to play the game however, you lose the steam tracking and steam version integration. So long as you have the 'Use Steam Service Account' enabled, you will not be able to login with a Square Enix Mogstation Windows Account. Most Steam FFXIV Players who meet this scenario are currently using the current workaround: to SteamEdit the Launch Argument on Final Fantasy XIV by removing the -issteam launch argument.Īt this time, with the FFXIV Launcher, playing FFXIV with the Steam Client is not possible using the -issteam removed. Some of us in the FFXIV though using Square Enix Account, prefer to use Steam (Which was released later) to leverage the interface, in-game hours achievements etc.

What happened, what did not, what did you want to happen? Yes, I have checked and my request is not related to the game updating and plugins not working correctly.
