Hi!

I saw that no issue had been created here, so I figured it was the right place.
The final fantasy XIV launcher no longer renders correctly through wine, and it
might seem to be caused by multiple bugs.

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/580

There is a lot of information to dig through, so I'll make a summary here.

Since last game-patch the launcher stopped working. The launcher is somehow
trying to access https://frontier.ffxiv.com/version_4_0_win/version_4_0_win/
instead of just https://frontier.ffxiv.com/version_4_0_win/. This is a
potential wine parsing bug?

You can however bypass this issue and make it load the correct url. At which
point the launcher renders nothing. It is theorized that this might be due to
mshtml issues, but nothing is confirmed. This would be the main issue here, in
my eyes.
