With the upcoming release of the savage wing and as someone who just returned to the game after a long break, I was curious and watched some previous ffxiv world first VODs.
What I found was disgusting, people are streaming world firsts using cheats and programs that are against the ToS, in particular let's say "calculators" were used and programs used to modify ground markers at inhuman speeds.
Then I watched other raider streams and people openly stream themselves using these calculators as if it's nothing.
So my questions are, are cheated world firsts endorsed by square enix, and are cheated world firsts endorsed by the ffxiv community?
