This is why this game should'nt get a parse

[Senliten]

And what about the PS4 players that have expressed how they want to parse, but cannot, since consoles cannot utilitize ACT? Please don’t tell them to buy/switch to PC, because that’s not always a(n affordable) solution.

With time and patience, people can make something decent that can run ACT and XIV for around a couple hundred bucks, for bout the same cost as the PS4 back upon release if I wanted to give a rough estimate. Sorry if people don't have any patience but if they want their numbers now, then they can pony up, cause SE has given their same stance and solutions for the past 4 years, and that's to implement things that give the bare minimum (i.e training dummy), and still players have to come up with an alternative solution (dummy parse website) for the console players, while SE also turns a blind eye for for the most part until the use of ACT is used maliciously on PC, in which they intervene on the offending parties. So to console players that wait, have fun waiting another 4+ years, especially with that Duty Recorder coming out and giving next to nothing once more in terms of what you wished for, maybe someone will craft something up like last time, but hey, maybe try working with the CFW scene perhaps to get something solved? I mean if people are 'that' desperate. Cause guess how ACT was born? Cause people were desperate for a solution to take a good chunk out of manual parsing.

I am not going to go out and buy another PC just for the simple sake of parsing - that means getting a decent gaming PC, and re-purchasing another license just to play FFXIV on my laptop. That is not going to happen. Money does not grow like that - it's even more ridiculous to even consider doing this since I have a fine laptop, it's just not capable of reliably running FFXIV...and I am not buying another license. I don't like that excuse. Time and patience, my scaly behind.
