Did SE threaten to not make ultimates anymore?

Anyway, Kindred cleared with all 8 members of their team streaming, most of them from day one, with thousands of eyes watching their entire prog from start to finish. So could the wild accusations that nobody ever cleared without cheating just stop now?

It will never end now.

Every raid group is gonna be scrutinized. Especially since cheating took place in DSR, TOP and interestingly enough also Panda Savage tiers as well. And it is now suspected that any other World First in the past had cheating as well.

So unless every player streams their runs it's going to be met with criticism.

Here is a informative video about the whole situation.

It's a bad look for XIV these days.

It's a bad look for XIV these days.

That’s what I was trying to say yesterday, maybe badly. The more controversy that shows up with addons and people being caught using them (for world firsts) doesn’t give a good look to 14.

It's not the game that looks bad. Every game has its cheaters using third party mods. Even WoW, which, has an official world first race, is not immune to drama over it. While add-ins created within the scope of their content creator rules are allowed, there are still others that turn to third party programs at times.

It's the player community that looks bad. Here are players that cheat over a race that does not officially exist just to say they're first or because they don't want to put in the appropriate effort to beat a fight. SE has told us not to do it and has left us the honor system. That would be enough for any reasonable adult. They would repay that faith by honoring the developers' request.

It's sad to see that some lack that honor. It's a reflection on them, not on the game.
