I remind you that FF 14 was a console game first, THEN on PC. Even a lot of the FF games now on PC ( remakes ) are a PORT to PC, not from PC TO console.

I am against parsers for one specific reason, I have had ample experience on how they can be misused and abused as an excuse for publically humliating players.

You are welcome to use parsers to work your own performance, thats as it should be.

What you are NOT allowed to do is to use them to berate and harass others...for reasons that are blatantly obvious.
Ok I'm still agreeing with you that parsing proves too much of a risk to be allowed naturally into the game; you know it, I know it, everyone knows it.



....but FFXIV actually did came out on PC first...although the idea was for the games to be released platform wide simulatenously and that obviously never happened. Dont remember that being also the case either back when FFXI was first launched.
