3rd party tool go brrrrr

[Oopsy]

Pros:
They want it.
They can measure compute their states and formulate strategies using a program to give them advise.

Cons:
Harassment.
Not the intended play style.
Advantage over users who do not use the tool.
Use of addons that go beyond strictly parsing.
Game information is mined and collected.

Counter:
Harassment - No one would do that its against the rules on its own. - followed by calling players bad for their lack of stats on websites that people upload others parsed data to. so how could they be harassed their just bad.

Not the intended play style. - Its not needed but makes things easier. People want to play better but don't know how without hard calculated evidence from a computer program and script telling them as such. Also followed by arguments the the ones bring up that the game wasn't intended to be played that way are just bad players and could never do that content... further proving harassment.

Use of addons that go beyond strictly parsing. - but that would be against the rules, maybe? and also doesn't happen... often....

Game information is mined and collected. - You just don't understand how data works, it was already there... - no valid counter really made.


Please tell me where I misunderstood?

I am not against people using DPS metter, however, how a game is intended to play is not your decision, it is what developers design. That is why they pay to their game designers, not to you. "Making game easier" is the exact meaning of what cheating is, how is that counter argument??

Y'all ever regret looking up someone's name on the site that must not be named?

You guys need to stop arguing with all these Witch-Hunters. They crave this crap. Some of them are attention *!@#*&* if you know what I mean. Please just let them grovel in their vomit of excuses. Just enjoy the game. Let them wonder off into oblivion or something. Just continuing having fun with whatever you are doing in the game, and on your own computer.

The part where this isn't for players that aren't interested in putting effort for difficult content. And for what I've already said, not meant to be here, you.

all addons are ToS breaking, said many times now, not limited to "parsers" to begin with except for the niche 2013 statement of Gshade.

See that battle log that seems like clutter? You don't need to know most of it and I doubt people cleaned it up to show relevant information.

Why isn't pyromancer banned then? Squares enforcement cannot begin and end at "send a message with an example" otherwise...it's not gonna actually go any way to accomplishing Yoshidas goal of pure first party ffxiv.

We probably won't ever see him respond to this comment. The pyromancer double standard pokes a huge hole through their argument.

[Upirlikhyi]

seriously. banning someone for using a party buff timer and a dps meter has got to be one of the dumbest things ive ever heard of. ive used mods like these when i used to play wow a long time ago and all it did was help me become a better player.

wow allows them. FF14 does not.
