As someone with 3 accounts. and 9 alts. ... might be 8.

I am constantly switching around and swapping characters.... every single time i have to re boot the launcher, whether that be logging on my 3 mains, or any combination of alts... its UNBELIEVABLY frustrating.

It just seems like a meaningless waste of time. and with the new "Dual training" coming with odesy.... it just seems like a step backwards having to re boot the launcher every. single. time.

In the past. all you had to do is hit play 3 times. get 3 clients and you are good to go.

i know im not the only one...

(ps... if there is a setting / obvious work around i have missed, then i am sorry)

There's a settings menu in the top-right for keeping the launcher open. :)

Not that this new launcher is particularly prose-worthy. -.-

A 'quit to launcher' button could be of use.

Client only or Launcher+Client, either works. Just make a shortcut for the Client itself, or use the New Launcher to launch directly into the Character Selection screen.

As someone with a lot of alts, I personally love the new system.

I have 10 accounts and I hate it. Why do you love it?

I generally go to the client directly, but some have implied this may not be possible for much longer.

It only allows 7 usernames and I can't alphabetize them. :P
