When will SE release an addon SDK?

It's close enough. I mainly want it for space saving issues. I'm tired of this TV taking up all the space in my flat.

I suggest somehow trying it before you get it because I spent $800 on the sony 3d viewer thing and it was pretty cool, had a nice big picture but uncomfortable as hell.. at least for me because I was planning on wearing that thing for hours. Too heavy and you ended up with a rectangular red spot on your forehead which ended up giving me a massive headache after only like 1 full hour.

The prototype is only 300 and takes up your entire field of vision.

I've also heard that it's WAY lighter and more comfortable than the sony.

SDK's, in general, require a full team to manage, test, QA, etc. And usually take an inane amount of work to maintain. I think I'd rather they work on making sure the game is good and solid before diving into things like SDK's. One of the reasons why the GUI has so much effort put into it is that so we don't need SDK's for the GUI.

What it really comes down to is this: average players won't care enough to use it. Programmers won't let the lack of it stop them.

Yes it is, you can turn the head tracking completely off and even have a mixed mode.

Careful, some games may actually be playable without the need of addons.

All games are playable without addons... erm... ok make that most unless it is a bethesda game then yeah you need addons to fix all the broken stuff they have in the game :P

As a DPS there is no way for me to judge and evaluate my performance and the performance of others without damage/dps meter addon. This kind of stuff typically isn't put in a default UI by game developers so it is up to the community to make an addon for it. For DPS players who care about their DPS in any MMO including FFXIV:ARR a dps meter addon is a must, there is no arguing this fact.

Funny because I have known a lot of DPSers in other games that use those addons and still can't pull top DPS from me when I used to do that with no addons... it is called knowing how to play your class... you don't need an addon to do that...
