I think Square Enix should look into possibly using Easy Anti Cheat for XIV

Not only that, they also went into a tangent about how even if they see a parser, people could just say "it's giving me cpu heat and performance data" and they couldn't check to see if it's true. Which is obviously a blatant excuse for justifying not pursuing streamers/screenshots/videos. This liveletter just basically said: same as usual, except we're clarifying that bot like behavior from third party tools that auto-move markers, show un-telegraphed attacks, do your rotation, etc will get you banned. And sound based callouts/triggers are still somewhat an unknown

More direct quotes from Yoshi:

So yeah, um, that’s basically it. And adding a bit more to it, if something like this keeps happening, they may look at the mods and think what the heck is going on with the game and there is a possibility that they demand us to stop the game, or completely change the graphical data. There is a high possibility that this will lead to these kinds of things and so if you could please stop, we would be grateful.

He said quite a bit more than what you're claiming.

I wasn't referring to all the sections pertaining to the nude mods, which your quote comes from. Only the parsing bits.

I'm stuck with that thing in many games I have and I hate it, as it messes up other programs on my pc. No thank you.

As a DBD player, I can assure you anti-cheat softwares are a pain. They sometime wrongfully detect something and just kick you from the game for no reasons.

So that's a big no-no for me.

How salty are bad dps in this game that they want to get thousands of people banned at once. Theres actual pedophiles on this game and you bads are worried about your feelings getting hurt because someone tried to give you advice on your bad performance.

I too enjoy games that dont let me play because I'm running PoE's trade hotkey in the background, or have a spreadsheet open.

Its clearly a model every game should strive to emulate.
