Is a Parser ever comming?

[Ikeda]

I get it well Ikeda, as a player that has invested over 11yrs with SE MMOs. You bring up past practices, so please explain the implementation of ilvl avg brought by SE and PF with an option to set it. As many out of that biggest source of income claim massive abuse with it.

Those were just mistakes by SE thinking they were adding something people think of as "necessary".

The ilvl issue was likely the same reason they added duty finder and a few other bad design decisions they made. I like to imagine the process of making that decision went like this: "We're clearly not copying WoW enough I mean have you seen those other mmos that copied WoW? They're liek totally making millions *ignores the fact that pretty much every single P2P mmo that has tried to copy WoW too much for the past 9+ years has either shut down or been dumbed down to F2P* I know let's copy item levels, those totally couldn't be detrimental to the community ".

Party finder was more along the lines of something that can be useful but due to ilvls and a few unnecessary additions to it (the ability for players to set requirements) has caused more problems than it should have.

Parsers fall into the category of something that "can" be helpful but causes far too many issues than it helps, and is unnecessary but people have the delusion that they're necessary due to overuse in other mmos.
