Hello,
Nice to meet you. Sorry for the questions, but I would really like to leave Chrome forever and this one mobile game is the only thing that is keeping me from uninstalling it. I would like to kindly ask for your help. (I have looked up the threads, but found no threads relating to this problem, only a few reddit threads that lead to nowhere, saying ‘it doesn’t work on Brave’)
The game be accessed via the link https://game.granbluefantasy.jp/
The game functions well with the latest Chrome and de-googled Chromium browsers on Windows desktop, Android and iOS too. The site has a very bad track record for needing several workarounds even in Chrome to work properly. The game has been created in 2014 and since then there have been basically very few adjustments to the web-engine it has been running on.
The site uses a third party cookie from the site https://connect.mobage.jp/ for login.
The following images show how my usual login process goes:
1.: accessing the site via game .granbluefantasy.jp/ and clicking onto the orange button
2.: A new page appears with 3 different login choices. I have a registered account on the first site, that works flawlessly.
3.: by clicking the first Icon and then OK, you are redirected to connect.mobage.jp.
4.: After entering your login details (e-mail and password) and then clicking on the login button, you are redirected to a page confirming successful login.
5.: On the page you have to click on the RETURN button to go back to the game
6.: After this, the page redirects you to the game:
My problem is, that after this successful login, my page (see above) appears and looks like it functions, however, the browser returns to step #1 to login. This error does not happen with Chrome or Chromium.
I have tried to erase all temporary files (including cookies) and then tried to turn off the shield, but it didn’t work. After that I have deleted every temporary file again and added the hosts game.granbluefantasy.jp and connect.mobage.jp to allow third party cookies and all tracking cookies, disabled ad protection too, but it still goes to the same login loop.
I would kindly like to ask for help to troubleshoot this matter. What could cause a sudden return to the login loop?
