As a Final Fantasy 14 player, I'm sometimes jealous of how good World of Warcraft players have it. Thanks to FF14's EULA forbidding interface addons entirely, I have to stick to definitely only hearing about them third-hand through unmentioned friends, with mods I absolutely do not have installed. Then I'm reminded of events like this, and I'm suddenly counting my blessings.
Last week, Wowhead made a news post highlighting some new overlay tech that was being used in raiding. These are different from your bog-standard UI mods in that they don't use the game's in-built addon support, and can be slapped over the game window or put on a separate monitor entirely.
