So basic things like buff bars that benefit everyone are absolutely fine but nobody should be getting advantages like addons announcing mechanics because you "cant focus on everything important"

If you cant be aware of what is happening during the encounter and need your hand held then you shouldnt be doing such content to begin with, you are just not built for such type of game.
Yet it seems pretty important to this community to accommodate with console players even when it means disadvantages for PC players. I never forced anyone nor made anyone use a console, so why should I care about their needs? That's the same type of idiotic logic that isn't even as selfish and immature as saying something like "I didn't make them disadvantaged so why should I care about their needs?" Some games have this feature called "Accessibility features" that offers players who have disabilities some options to help them in gameplay and not just for one issue such as eyesight which is all FFXIV has to offer. Many people can benefit from things like addons or more features to accommodate their disabilities without being involved in your gameplay and overall experience. I'm not even going to bother listing a number of disabilities that prevent people from being able to perform better or on par with everyone else because you honestly should know about enough of them unless you are 12 years old. It's not as simple as getting "advantages" because you "can't focus on everything important" It runs way deeper than that. It affects the gameplay of certain people to the extent they strain themselves or over stress themselves and suffer through trying to keep up with other players. It makes people not want to play this game. Addons being implemented in MMORPG's allow an extremely large amount of features that can help people with disabilities strive much easier and be able to have fun with the game. It implements a choice in how you can alter the surroundings and lack of features in the game so you have a better time. It's not always about someone else having an advantage over other players. If you think that addons that improve gameplay and also aid people with disabilities is giving a group of people an advantage to the game, why not get the addon yourself if it seems so unfair (obviously implying if that feature is ever added to this stale MMORPG). Every game should abide to those with disabilities because forcing them to be excluded from gaming is unfair and wrong. Saying they shouldn't be doing the content in the first place and aren't built for the type of game is one way to show off your immaturity level and ability to have any compassion for others. It's disgusting
