You were warned...

[Sqwall]

In 2020 Yoshi P gave a LENGTHLY message to the FFXIV community as a HUGE migration from another games player base was literally imploding. Literally saying and looking right INTO the camera saying, "Don't tell anyone you're using them. Don't make it a big deal your using them. However, Don't use them...." *stares at camera*

That was a direct warning to a subset of players that use them to literally tell them...you...are...being...watched. PERIOD.

As director AND producer of this game....it's literally...HIS game. And he will do whatever it takes to protect it. He knows what is and has killed other games that allow this crap to go on.

Everyone installs add on's, plug-in's, ACT, dalamund, cactpot, and a myriad of OTHER things that alter the way you interact with the game. The way you see others information, the way you complete high end content, the way you farm, the way you craft, the way you glamour.

At what point is it no longer FFXIV, but a collection of add on's/mods that alter your experience. I look at current WoW players playing WoW...and I can't even tell what game it is anymore. The UI looks NOTHING like WoW to me, and it's a cluttered mess of things telling the player exactly where to stand or move to.

I DARE SAY....those that completed DSR might not have even completed it WITHOUT mods/add-ons or at best it would have taken them incredibly LONGER to complete it.

And to all of those that are getting banned for not listening to his words. Yet continue to STREAM with those said mods on....AND have the GALL to throw their hands up when they get banned!????? He literally told EVERYONE not to talk about them or show that you use them. Well I call streaming to the world....showing that you use them.

I commend Yoshi P for his conviction and follow through. I WISH I had a boss like him that can actually back up what he says, and has the balls to make the hard decisions even if it means EVERYONE will hate him for it because he loves this game so much. He even said that they will take the add on's and mods into consideration for future implementation, but in a controlled way so that it can be implemented in a professional way.

Will the game lose players for this....probably. Do I care...not at all. I played this game in 1.0 when literally 200 people were on the server...and stuck with it through thick and thin because I saw the potential from Yoshi P, literally like a couple weeks after him taking over it was literal course correction in 1.0, then 2.0. I left WoW because the developers REFUSED to protect the game they were making...and NOW look at it. Having a round table discussion saying literally EVERYTHING the community was saying for nearly a decade. Droves of people going back to CLASSIC like its a new game....back when it was good to have that feeling of what it was like before shit went so wrong.

You all had it coming. You pushed until it pushed back...

cool story bro.

I still fail to see how you are being personally affected by those who use mods to enhance the UI, regardless if they stream or not, but if it makes you feel better to preach about how wrong they are for doing so, then have fun I suppose. There are bigger issues regarding 6.1 that need more of a focus than this.

Given your previous post history, I am unsurprised by what I found when I clicked on this thread.

People played a stupid game, and they won a stupid prize. I'm not shocked.

People seem to forget this is only a Streamer and youtube ban. Doesn't affect the average player, they still can't scan your computer so ACT and cactbots and all the mods will still be everywhere. They're only banning their advertisers.
