    I am kind of lost at this point if you care to expand I would be grateful.
    It depends on what it is. There's already plenty of info showing on the screen without any extras. Adding more and more becomes detrimental. The most extreme case would be the latest cheat videos that have been making the rounds. There's a point with all these add-ons, where the game is essentially played for you and there's no requirement to think, just go where you're told and never really learn anything. This not only dulls the player but any satisfaction they might get for properly winning an encounter. The fact that people are cheating and still failing says enough.

    People who see that video going round and think that makes DSU still not the hardest encounter in the game by a country mile need to get a grip, no add on plays this game for you and DSU specially requires over 17 minutes of perfect coordination, all add ons do is provide information, that one in the video is a bit egregious for how much it provides I’ll give you that but let’s not pretend like cactbot plays the game for you
