    Imagine thinking that a mod, even just a reshader, which is completely client side, and only affects the stability of the software on a client side basis, has the same impact as a server side reshader, which again, is server side and actually gets recognized by the game and goes out to millions of people.

    Am I defending Square and saying that it's okay if they don't have this? Nah, I'm a realist. There will probably be bugs and crashes upon release. And it'll be frustrating. That's the state of games nowadays, unfortunately. It really sucks. But I'm also not so silly as to think that just because a modder has been able to do it that it really is a simple task when it comes to implementing it server side and only a buffoon could mess it up.

    You can't just copy and paste a client side mod into server side and have it work. So the notion that "modders have been doing it for years" literally holds no weight whatsoever.
    Did you just unironically say shading is done serverside? My god no wonder Square gets away with all the shit, you guys are so technically illiterate. NOTHING on the graphic side has any impact on the server. No viera hats, no shading, no high res textures. All that has no affect on the server AT ALL. Stop the "Well akshually mods can only do it cause its client side"
