In-Game Parser.

[Zephyranthes]

Yoshi P himself said this would never be in the game as it would seem like SE is justifying chastising someone based on numbers. I'm all for parsers in game, but when the man says it'll never happen, it's never going to happen. He didn't even leave it open ended for a future possibility.

Nothing is final. He can just do something which he said they'll not do before.

Unlikely? Yes.
Never? No.

And hopefully it'll stay VERY unlikely. We already have parsers we can use. For those on consoles, they have friends who use PCs that can parse them if they so choose.

MY concern is people wanting the devs to steer away from developing useful content that is for the game itself to develop something that we already have access to via other means. I'd rather the Devs keep making other new content for us and just let us use the tools we already have access to. It's already been proven time and again in this thread that EVERYONE already has access to parsing. People choose what platform they want to game on - if you choose to use a console and not a PC, then you choose to have your parsing done by the many PC friends you have in your FC that have PCs. Unless, of course, you are in that FC I keep seeing running around that only invites PS4 players. Talk about limiting yourselves there

I guess what im trying to get at is two things:#1 Was this game made with Parsing in mind, especially from a third party program? And #2, Can this game be enjoyed, completed without this program. See the way i see it its like saying "hey, developers should take a program that's essentially a cheat and add it to their game so we can play their game better." What?!

If all of a sudden, SE made it so you cant gather that so called "needed" data to play the game, how many of you asking for it are gonna quit, stop playing or cry that its too hard? I agree that its really not needed. If it was, it would be in the game for all players, not just for a bunch of pc users who are elitist. Im sorry, this game is not a job. its a game. If i want to maximize my output, i will practice using what i have in the game. But as it is now, its better left alone. It forces players to get used to playing with each other and learning with each other instead of looking at some data and saying "Hey, you are not hitting your numbers." You guys make it sound like its a job. Its supposed to be fun.
