Would you be opposed to SE implementing a program to scan for addons/parsers?

...well. That path was about as useful as One-Ilm Punch used to be.

I guess it's better to just err on the side of caution and just not use anything major.

You know what that means If I cause you guys to wipe because I can't see anything, it's not my fault!!

thats a joke right? how could they tell if you are using

If using Nvidia shaders which is a built in setting on the graphics card is using third party tools, I guess we can bring back up the debate that using a controller, mouse, keyboard, and monitor being a use of third party tools too.

I'm still in the camp of banning everything including Discord. Especially Discord.

Should ban using an OS when playing FFXIV too, since that is also third party. /s

I would not like it, would actually be a reason to quit and I think that goes for a lot of people which is why I do not see them implementing it.

My reasons for being against it is for me natural. It is the devs saying that we all are suspected of cheating whenever we play the game, there is a high risk that the game experience will be affected negatively by this, it is an invasion of privacy as a scan can scan everything and who knows what is sent to SE.

And finally. It would be overkill, the content in question is played by a very small part of the playerbase who has the time to do it, the skills to do it, and wants to do it, among them only a very, very, very small number of player cheat. In other words, this kind of solution will annoy many and risks making way more people quit the game then the small number of players it attempts to stop from cheating.

Consoles and PCs are also third-party.

I mean, you put the "haha" /s at the end but making the game console exclusive would really give me a belly laugh!

I mean, if SE really wants to kill their game go for it. I am excited to see how well FF16 does being a PS5 exclusive when you still can't even buy them 2 years later...
