Parsers add replayability for casual players

From the WOW forums, shown to me by a friend. A fitting summary, I would say.

I mean, I can look to my own behaviour in both games. I will organize group kicks to get out underperformers when I struggle in WoW because that is what the game has conditioned me to do. Even if I try to advise, odds are, I’ll be the one finding myself on the outside of the group. In FFXIV, if someone is underperforming, I take the time to advise and guide them when I have knowledge that can help. That little crown by my name lets the person know that I’m actively trying to help them, not attack. I have had a few people say that they don’t want my help and… fair enough.

and the response

Your behavior in WoW is toxic, but I can’t blame you for it because the game has been rewarding you for it for years. You no longer treat it like a game. You treat it like a job, and you see your role as a manager at a toxic workplace who cuts underperformers so that the rest of his team has less work to do to succeed. That kind of environment is not conducive to a pleasant gaming experience.
