Why isn’t the third party software ban enforced?

Its like you people have never played any other MMO. Anyone ever play WoW or Elder Scrolls Online? Addons or Elvui for things like spell timer bars so you can see what is going on with out squinting, dps meters, Deadly Boss Mod, Big Wigs for boss call outs are all pretty standard and yet content is challenging and still considered more challenging than this game in WoWs case.

Addons dont physically make people move out of the aoes or do the mechanic etc. Its not any different than having a call out or reading a guide before the boss.Your not running a Professional Mythic Dungeon Invitational so why do you even care what tools folks use for quality of life with their statics? Personally I dont care it means less wipes and those with vision, reflex, ping, or other accessibility issues can enjoy the game.

That's probably why I don't play them. It's not even culture/toxicity related for me. I played ESO when it launched.. and my experience with addons in that game at the time was every week or two I had to spend 20 to 30 minutes with outdated addons and trying to get basic functionalities that other MMO's have by default working again. I don't play WoW so I can't comment there. I can say though that I am quite glad addons are not an officially endorsed thing here, even though I don't care that others use them. You play content where it's very helpful slash required? Then I can understand why something like ACT will be needed and used.
