Update disclaimer

  • [X] Yes, I have checked and my request is not related to FFXIV updating and plugins not working correctly.

What happened, what did not, what did you want to happen?

Why only Russians deserve to experience such "user-friendly" colors?

Version

Standard version (Windows, Lutris)

Platform

Windows

I don't see a problem. Must be something on your side.

Aside from politics it is very uncomfortable to use this colors. I know you don't care and everyone will be glad that it is uncomfortable for Russians bla-bla-bla. But it makes my head ache every time I am running XIV Launcher.

Well seeing as goats himself did the edit. I dunno what you expect from the bug report.

You are gunna have to compile it yourself if you don't want this "Feature" or change your language.

Showing your support to everyone is one thing. Picking special group of people based on language ( as well as skin color, race, nationality) is always a bad idea. I am not russian and I am not even living in Russia. I am tatar, but I know russian, and this app doesn't have tatar language, so I am using russian. And I have to watch this strange colors and feel the pain (because color shceme is not pleasant, not becuase it is Ukrainian colors. I don't like idea of colors of Republic of Tatarstan being there as well). It is like firing atomic bomb to kill 1 roach. You never know who else might get hurt. Just something for you to think about.

Hard agree, can we please get these colors on all languages, I feel like it's unfair I don't get to see the pretty Ukrainian colors. Thank you for bringing up the issue!

The comical part to me is it's been a thing since feb? Do people from russia or that speak russian primarily not use XIV launcher?

Interesting demographics study.

I honestly thought that this is enabled for all languages and I had no questions. But to be divided by language is not good. Either this way or another for all.

People from Russia primarily don't even play FFXIV Online.

Mate, this is not causing you bodily harm. "You never know who else might get hurt." There's a literal war on, stop crying about launcher being the "wrong" colour. Showing support for Ukraine, the victims of a war of aggression, is not hurting you.

We'll consider this suggestion internally, thanks for your comments!
