Help with FFXIV:ARR in Debian Wheezy

Just as the title says, I want to get this game to run in Debian Wheezy using Steam that I have installed on my Windows 7 system disk. This version has already been updated to the latest version and I want to get it to run, but can't. It always crashes right before the launcher shows up. Please help!
 
I believe I've narrowed the issue down to ie8. The issue now is that I don't know exactly how to go about fixing it.
 
Have you checked AppDB yet?
I can't believe the launcher requires IE8
Most games I have tested that used to require IE8 now work in newer versions of Wine.

Can you play any other games in Debian?
Do you have the 32-bit libraries installed?
Are you using Proprietary video drivers too?
 
Also, see if you can launch the config: ffxivconfig.exe
 
Try installing these libraries:
  • corefonts
  • winhttp
  • IE8
  • xact
Someone else mentioned this...
instead of using "Windows System Font" select a different font
Code:
Font Settings-
[X] Use Windows system font
Font: Arial
Quality: Standard
Thickness: Normal
