5 reasons why PS4 players need a parser in game

[TaleraRistain]

I never said PS4 players are worse because we don't have a parser or that statics don't accept us, what I'm saying here is that we need a real time parser to get to a certain level above knowing your rotation or doing mechanics and PC players have that which is not fair to us and we have the right to ask SE to add it.

You don't have the right to ask SE to add it. They don't have one for PC players. That's a third party program. Go ask *that* company to make you a parser for PS4.

Technically, isn't using a parser a violation of the Terms of Service? I've heard the GMs pretty much ignore it, but if somebody were a real dick about parsed numbers, I wouldn't be surprised if they got kicked.

If you really want a parser bad enough to complain in the forums, play on PC. If you couldn't care less and play the game for fun, it doesn't matter if you use PC or PS4. As far as I am concerned, a parser built into the game would only turn this game into a who has the bigger penis fest.

1- Every group that raids have at least 1 parser working even if its technically not legal but SE knows players are using parsers and they are not doing anything to stop them. <--- From OP's list shows me that he wants a group parser. Hence my comment.

Some people improving the playstyle is their part of funt too? Is it fun being bad in game for me? Hell no, so ofc I love when I know I improved and keep doing so. It's fun for me and it's fun for people who wish to improve too.

Ever occured to you that people think growing as a character, improving the playstyle is their part of funt too? Is it fun being bad in game for me? Hell no, so ofc I love when I know I improved and keep doing so. It's fun for me and it's fun for people who wish to improve too.

Keep in mind, we talk about the genuine bad here, that are either unwilling to get better or just are lazy.

That's what the most people advocate for the implementation of a parser - So that we can filter them out effectively and have them not rest on our backs, especially with the upcoming expansion and the new jobs.

That is true. However from my point of view, parser is also there for people who want's to improve and also like you said, those who do extremely bad needs a kick on their butt.

People can improve their play style without a parser. Is it useful to show someone that they can improve their rotation? Maybe. Do parser's lead to issues with harassment? Definitely. The fact is, a parser already exists as a third party system for PC. It doesn't need to exist on PS4. If it is such a great tool, SE would have added it in by now.

"Fun" is a flexible term. So, your definition of fun, will not mean the same thing as another person's definition of fun. For example, you find a parser to be "fun." I find a parser to be a life sucking tool on the game. It is all about opinion and past experience's or lack their of in other MMO's.
